IF YOU MIGRATE TO MEXICO

1. You MUST speak the native language.

2. You MUST be a professional or investor. No unskilled workers are allowed.

3. There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools, no special ballots for elections, all gov’t business will be conducted in Spanish.

4. Foreigners will NEVER have the right to vote.

5. Foreigners will NEVER be allowed to hold public office.

6. Foreigners will NOT be a burden to Mexican taxpayers – no welfare, no health care, or other gov’t assisted programs.

7. Foreigners can invest but it must be an amount equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.

8. Foreigners are NOT allowed to purchase property in Mexico unless certain “options” are approved. They may NOT purchase waterfront property as that is reserved for only Mexican citizens.

9. Foreigners may NOT protest – no demonstrations – no waving a foreign flag – no political organizing – no negative comments about the Mexican president or his policies. To do so is cause for immediate deportation to your counry of origin.

10. Illegal aliens in Mexico are considered FELONS. Foreigners coming to Mexico illegally will be hunted down and imprisoned.

Guest Column: D.A. King
Security On The Border, Sept. 12, 2007 – Feel Safer?
By D.A. King

“We must be vigilant.” – President George W. Bush, in an address to the nation following the 9/11 attacks – Atlanta, Georgia. November 8, 2001.

(9/12/07) The sixth anniversary of the unspeakable horror of September 11, 2001 is behind us, the heartbreaking memorial ceremonies and speeches are over and we now begin our seventh year facing life in America knowing we are targets of crazies who will do anything to attack us in our homeland.

Most adult Americans will never forget that clear-blue morning in 2001. “Everything will be different now,” I remember thinking, still tearful and numb from the shock of watching the second airliner fly into the World Trade Center.

But everything is not different now.

While it is true that we must now partially disrobe to board an airplane, that we carefully pre-package our toothpaste and liquids in our carry-on luggage for inspection, and that the American government cannot process passports to its own citizens in anything resembling a timely manner, a glaring and nationally suicidal truth remains.

In a war on terror, American borders remain less secure than Disney World.

In post-9/11 Washington, try to get into a Senate or House office building – or the White House gift shop – without submitting to a scan and a possible search.

Note the very efficient fence that protects the home of the president.

In a 2004 letter to constituents promoting what much of Congress and the president refer to as ‘Comprehensive Immigration Reform,’ the senior Senator from Arizona (and now, again, presidential candidate) John McCain quoted U.S. Border Patrol statistics which estimate that in the year 2002, “nearly four million people crossed our borders illegally”.

About 10,000 a day.

In addition to violation of the law, entering the U.S. “illegally” means uninspected and usually in places other than through authorized ports of entry.

It is not exactly a secret that anyone in the world has only to make it to Mexico and then walk into America by stepping over a barely-there barb wire fence that would not make a respectable or effective cattle pasture in Georgia.

Feel safer?

In a 2006 report from the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Homeland Security that somehow went un-noted by the mainstream media, anyone willing to take the time could read that the estimates of illegal entries into our nation in 2005 were between four and ten million.

Titled “A Line in the Sand: Confronting the Threat at the Southwest Border,” the report offers some other very disturbing findings. Among them:

* During 2005, Border Patrol apprehended 1.2 million illegal aliens, of those 165,000 were from countries other than Mexico (“OTMs” in Border Patrol speak).

* Of the OTMs apprehended, 650 were from what are labeled “special interest countries” – designated by the American intelligence community as countries that could export terrorists.

* Border Patrol estimates that they are able to apprehend 10-30% of the total illegal crossers.

Do the math.

Feel safer?

The report goes on:

* U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement investigations have revealed that aliens were smuggled from the Middle East to staging areas in Central and South America, before being smuggled illegally into the United States.

* Members of Hezbollah have already entered the United States across the Southwest border.

* Each year hundreds of illegal aliens from countries known to harbor terrorists or promote terrorism are routinely encountered and apprehended attempting to enter the U.S. illegally.

While six years after 9/11, the American president and the Department of Homeland Security promise that “operational control” of the border is coming, the House report tells us “The Mexican drug cartels wield substantial control over the U.S.-Mexican border. Law enforcement on the border agree that very little crosses the respective cartel territories, or “plazas,” along the Southwest border without cartel knowledge, approval, and financial remuneration.”

According to a May report in the Washington Post, “Federal officials became alarmed after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks when they discovered they could not account for 314,000 immigrants who had been ordered deported, including 5,046 from countries where al–Qaeda was present.”

Six years later, DHS now says there are more than 600,000 illegal aliens roaming America who are already under deportation orders.

Vigilant indeed.

On September 12, 2007, think about this fascinating reality: Even after 9/11, Immigration and Customs Enforcement periodically apprehends illegal aliens working in “secure” areas all over America – including airports and military bases.

Feel safer?

On September 12, 2007, security is far better in major American newspaper offices and network television buildings than on our borders.

Americans may want to ask what we would have said to anyone, who on September 12, 2001 would have predicted the present state of homeland security six years in the future. And why it is all so sadly true.

Because as Americans, we are America, we may want to ask political candidates the same questions.

Because virtually open borders means bargain wages and an expanded market, here is a hint as to why: Follow the money – even in a war on terror.

Feel safer?

From a reader on the blessings of opening American borders to Mexican trucks

Posted by D.A. King at 11:57 pm - Email the author   Print This Post Print This Post  

August 31, 2007

Subject: Back Hauling in Long Haul Trucking

Description: Back Hauling is the process whereby large trucking companies decrease

operational cost per mile by coordinating transport of other material on return trips.

Example: Eighteen wheeler leaves Florida hauling produce with a Seattle Safeway

destination. Hauler unloads and would ordinarily drive back to Florida

empty. This is costly so the trucking company plans ahead by scheduling a pickup in Seattle of Apples for a return to Florida. Now loaded with apples this truck is hauling freight both ways. This is normal operation in trucking.

Note – The International Commerce Commission regulates trucking and forbids backhauling of hazardous, toxic or contaminated cargo to be “back hauled” on the same truck that hauls consumables for humans. Some companies have violated this in the past and it is seldom enforced. Most reputable companies have policy against this dangerous procedure and enforces it internally. Financial culpability precludes violation.


Problem:
Mexican Trucks on the other hand which are scheduled to start hauling coast to coast in a

few days must observe this practice only while they are on American roadways

but do not while in Latin America and Mexico. This means that Mexican

trucks are going to be using trailers that have long been impregnated with

the most hazardous, toxic materials including contaminated medical refuse, pesticide and herbicide residue, animal carcasses, waste products and even depleted nuclear material. They will use the contaminated floors of these trailers to haul their biggest export to Americans – PRODUCE.

Unfortunately in the next few weeks this practice starts in America. Mexican trucks will have unfettered access to hauling every type of cargo imaginable throughout our Nation.

We will have no way of stopping them from using toxic and hazardous waste contaminated trailers from delivering everything from lettuce to bananas to our tables.

We need to contact our congress and the President and ask them to stop these trucks at the border until properly inspected and call for inspections each time they cross our border with produce destined for America. This is NOT something to be left to the honor system.

Some of our Senators and Representatives are trying to restrict access to American roads to Mexican trucking. Please contact them and offer to help. //ji

Press release from the Teamsters Union on open borders for Mexican trucks: Mexican Trucks: What is the Bush Administration Hiding?

Mexican Trucks: What is the Bush Administration Hiding?

To: LABOR EDITORS

Contact: Leslie Miller of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, +1-202-624-8734, lmiller@teamster.org

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The following statement was issued today by Teamster General President Jim Hoffa:

It’s becoming more and more obvious that the Bush administration just won’t come clean with the American people about when the first Mexican truck will roll across the border.

We know the fix is in. The Bush administration gave the go-ahead for this so-called “pilot program” before receiving the inspector general’s report, which is required by law.

How could they give the go-ahead unless the results of the report — which is supposed to be independent — were dictated by Transportation Secretary Mary Peters?

I can only conclude the Bush administration is trying to sneak this reckless and unlawful program into existence.

No announcement has been made about its start date, which members of Congress say is expected soon.

The American people only found out about it after the Teamsters forced the Bush administration to admit — in a court of law — that it wanted to open the borders on Labor Day weekend.

When reporters tried to get a straight answer from the Department of Transportation, they couldn’t. Then we learned in a footnote to a legal document that the program might start on Thursday.

Now all we hear from the Department of Transportation is silence.

What is the Bush administration hiding?

It is time for the Bush administration to come out from the shadows and explain to Congress and to the American people why they are willing to blindly heed Mexico’s demands. Why will they do Mexico’s bidding despite Mexico’s failure to hold up its end of the bargain and raise safety standards to our level?

What is it about safety and national security that George Bush doesn’t understand?

Congress and the American public must demand accountability from the Bush administration. It is time to end the secrecy. It is time to come clean with the American people.”

Good morning..I am migrating to your school – from Mexico

For those who are wondering: YES, Matamoros is that paradise to our south – Mexico.

Brownsville Herald
Morning Migration
“Crossing from Matamoros to Brownsville in the morning can take up to an hour, so Cervantes — who asked that her name be changed to protect her identity — spent the time in line to get ahead on her school work.

“I live in Matamoros and cross the bridge to Brownsville every day,” Cervantes said, “and I’ve been doing this since my sophomore year.”

Once in Brownsville, she’d drop off her younger sister at middle school, leaving just enough time to get to Lopez for her first class at 8:45 a.m. “

…To attend a Brownsville public school, students must provide district officials with a birth certificate, immunization records, a Social Security number, transcripts from previous schools and a document showing proof of residence, such as a utility or mortgage statement. — However, access to a public education, regardless of legal status, is protected…
