(SALEM, Ore.) - I keep hearing folks talk about finding 'middle ground' on the subject of illegal immigrants (not all immigrants just the illegal ones mind you... those here illegally).
What does that mean?
Let's use another criminal activity, say bank robbery, to highlight the points.
Would middle ground with bank robbers mean no jail time and they get to keep most of the money? That sure sounds like a great deal for the bank robbers and it sure does 'compromise' the laws of the land to their benefit, but is it sound public policy? Wouldn't such merely increase, in all likelihood, future bank robbery?
Just as amnesty, as this so-called 'middle ground' clearly is, would cause a greater increase in the invasion of the US by illegals. Just as the amnesty of some 2 million illegals back in the 80s left us with some 30 million or so illegals here today.
When will folks realize that amnesty for criminal activity is not a valid policy option as it does not work.
Unless, of course, what one wants to 'work' is the increase in the invasion so that in 20 years we have 400 million illegals in this country and they actually outnumber those here legally. At that point the invasion is complete, the US ceases to exist, and the criminals won without firing a shot.
Quite the pathetic end to a once-great nation.
I am told it is 'not amnesty' because the illegals have to go to the end of the immigration line. But they get to stay here so it would seem that they in fact remain at the front of the line while those doing it the legal way are forced to remain in whatever hellhole country they are trying to leave. I am told they will have to pay fines.
We cannot even get the likes of the vehicular murderer Sean Lee Hagen, an actual US citizen (to our eternal shame) , to pay fines, what makes anyone really think we can make these illegals pay theirs? And do they have to leave if they fail to pay the fines? Of course not! So again... why would they bother to pay the fines?
And they supposedly would have to learn English. These are people who even after being here illegally for over two DECADES and dropping a couple of new generations of their progeny in our laps require a translator because they cannot speak English. What makes anyone think this toothless amnesty proposal would get them to learn English?
Not amnesty, huh? Do tell. Anyone who believes such to not be amnesty is so naive that they would surely be interested in buying the lovely oceanfront home sites for sale in Montana.

Hundreds or thousands of illegals show up en masse on the state capitol steps in Salem, Oregon proudly proclaiming to reporters and anyone else who will listen that they are here illegally, that they do not care about our laws, that they consider this 'their country' and that they are 'taking it back', that they have a 'right' to be here illegally, etc etc etc ad infinitum ad nauseum with absolutely no fear whatever of the law. Why should they fear the law? There are plenty of bleeding hearts out there they can hide behind, right?
And they wonder why folks like me want them gone.
They try and play the race card but it does not stick because I do not care what race, gender, age, religion, etc the illegal is. If they are here illegally I want them gone. And I am far from alone.
What disgusts me even more are those waving polls around supporting illegals.
Would bank robbing be OK if I were to wave polls around saying so?
This used to be a nation based on the rule of law.
Now, if these 'rallies' and the support from the naive they seem to engender are as they seem, it seems this is now a nation of anarchy and mob rule. It is as disgusting as it is disheartening.
So as we hear the food bank crying they are out of food for the poor after we see illegals loading brand new SUVs to the bursting point at the food distribution sites we do not have to wonder very much as to why the food banks are empty.
When we see class sizes pushing the 50 student mark and we see illegals popping out the 12th anchor baby of the third generation in their family it does not take advanced math to figure out why this might be.
When we go to the emergency room for a serious medical issue and have to wait 6 hours behind the line of illegals with the sniffles it should surprise no one that we have reason to want them gone... to have the laws actually enforced.
When we hear of those incidents in the welfare office where those here legally are forced to produce documents to the nth degree to qualify for benefits but see illegals who cannot even speak English just get waved through and lavished with benefits without having to produce a shred of anything it is not surprising that those of us here legally get a bit put off by the situation.
When we read about crimes committed by those here illegally we realize that if the illegal was not here we would not have suffered this crime being committed, this person victimized or even killed. Is it any wonder why we want these invaders gone and we want the invasion stopped?
I put up another article outlining very easy steps to ending the invasion and getting those here illegally to leave of their own accord. It is at: Immigration Reform, La Raza and the DREAM Act
Personally I think it is downright treasonous that any public official of our government would do anything but fully enforce the laws of the land regarding the illegals in such a way as to rid us of those here illegally now and to also discourage any others from coming here illegally in the future. Also they should take actions, either those I outlined in my article or others if they have better ideas that would be more effective, to remove the enticements and incentives that attract the illegals here.
Just say NO to Amnesty.
Just say "Go home and stay there" to illegals.
