Law breakers took to the streets and protested attempts to actually enforce the laws they wish to break.
Interestingly if the protesters were let's say, bank robbers, drug dealers, or embezzlers they wouldn't have the audacity to take to the streets and demand their "right" to continue their law breaking. If they did so, they would be heaped with scorn and ridicule not to mention arrested for their outstanding crimes. God help them if they were corporate crooks, they may be strung up right there in the street.
No, the protesters this weekend are no less criminal yet feel emboldened to demand the right to break the law. I'm speaking of course of illegal immigrants (note the first word "illegal" in the title). How on earth did the laws against illegal entry into this country become such a joke that 500,000 illegals take to the streets and protest without fear of arrest and deportation, especially in the wake of 9-11-2001?
We already know that illegal immigrants have contempt for this country and ours laws but seriously, what the hell happened? All weekend I heard that they "just want to come here and be Americans and contribute." I heard them say that "we are the backbone of this country." Yet between the costs of their medical care, policing, and educating their children with the added billions of dollars to teach them in Spanish and not English which they refuse to learn. It's my sense that they are not the backbone of America, but they are breaking our back.
I'm told that without them I would be paying $6.00 for a head of lettuce, or $15.00 for a plate of spaghetti when I go out to eat. I supposed to think that's far worse than the billions and billions of dollars we are shelling out for the above mentioned Government services. Actually, when you sit and do the math we'd be far better off paying more for our produce, dinning out, lawn maintenance, etc. That is considerably less than we pay to keep illegal immigrants here.
With all of that said, President Bush says we need them because "they do jobs Americans won't do." This is true and it's our fault for allowing any American to decide that he or she is "too good" to take whatever jobs are available, and turn to tax payers to pay their way. Shame on the welfare state, and shame on this country for allowing it to come to this. If we are to fix the problem of illegal immigration we must first fix welfare once and for all. No one should be able to pass up a job, any job in favor of a Government check.
During the Great Depression there was no such thing as a job that an American wouldn't do. Shock of shocks, there was no illegal immigration problem either. In fact Americans in those days had the same attitude about work that immigrants (illegal or otherwise) have today. The liberal welfare program has made a mess of this country and now they defend not only the right of some Americans to sit on their asses and not work, but defend the right of foreigners to break our laws to come here and take jobs that these same lazy ass Americans won't do.
What the hell?
