Immigration: Walls or Bridges? -- From
The
ANNOTICO Report
Should
the first act of any Immigrant be breaking the law by entering a country
illegally????
The
excuse, that all the "illegal" wants is economic opportunity, is Very
unpersuasive, because there are about 5 BILLION people around the world that
would like that SAME opportunity, and wait PATIENTLY in Line!!!!!
Does
a GOOD Neighbor ignore the boundary line between your properties, play catch on
your front lawn, swim in your pool, raid your
refrigerator, move into a spare room?????
Why
should you object??? They are just trying to enrich their lives!!!! :) :)

PART I of III;
Article 1 of 11 Articles; The Problem 1
....Let me say
right off, lest someone go off half-cocked when reading this, that what I am
discussing here is not meant for LEGAL immigrants, legal Hispanics or other
minorities who have immigrated to this country to become legit Americans. It is
not intended as immigrant-bashing either; instead, it is meant to bring out the
serious problems we have and then offer some ideas on how to fix them. But for
those who are in this country unjustly and against our laws, I make no
apologies for my thoughts here on paper.
I do thank and
praise those immigrants who are in
No, this article
is directed at illegalread the word again: illegalaliens, meaning unlawfuls, meaning criminals. If you react spitefully
and vow revenge over reading this piece, then you likely belong to the very
category I am addressing, or youre one of those allowing, even prompting,
the incursion of aliens into our country....
I keep asking
myself, Why cant these border-crossers enter our country legally like
the thousands and thousands and thousands before them? My father did it;
my aunts and uncles did it. They all came to this country from the various
parts of
Each of my
foreign-born-turned American citizen-relatives paid their taxes and their
bills, partook in community events, and assumed responsibility for their
presence in this country. They wanted to be Americans! Our parents and
relatives did not teach my brother and cousins and me Italian, though it was
spoken fluently among our parents. However, each one of our adult relatives
learned English quickly and smoothly out of the strong and urgent desire to be like
every other American in this country. This was their dream.
They did not have
the advantage of walking the halls of American schools where Italian and
English signs were posted; they did not have the benefit of teachers who
learned Italian to make their lives easier and give them preferential
treatment; they did not take jobs under the table and not report taxes or not
make their other obligations to this nation; they did not have directions in
their native tongue on how to do something, assemble an item, or fill out an
application. In fact, in 1906, knowledge of English in the
My parents and
aunts and uncles did not have a single television or radio station structured
around their culture and spoken in their language as the Hispanics have with
their multi-media accessibility; instead, they learned English. They worked
hard to study for, take, and pass their citizenship tests, and they celebrated
with hoopla when they were pronounced American citizens. My family is
proud of its roots and heritage, but we are, first, Americans, and secondly, of
Italian descent, of European roots. My husband (he is of Irish/English/German
heritage) and I teach our children how to be good American citizens while
enriching their lives with the culture of our roots. But above all, we all
stand honored to say We are Americans.
This is true not
only for the Italian immigrants; other nationalities as well have worked hard
to assimilate into our Western culture and become regular ol
Americans..... If immigrants are coming into our country and really want to
join the American cause and culture, they can achieve this, but if their desire
is to suck Americans dry and get whatever they can without giving in return,
while they obviously can do this, too, as seen in what is going on today.
The
The legal
immigrants of the 1920s, 30s, 40s and even right up to the 1970s and
early 1980s went through the ordeal of being processed, many having
to make their way through Ellis Island to be prodded, yelled at (processors
behaving as though foreigners not understanding English meant deafness), and
often donned with new namesall to avoid confusion, the spread of diseases,
unemployment, and homelessness, and to introduce the American way of life.
Those immigrants rejoiced over this Americanization, kissed the land their feet
stepped on. A record exists for every foreigner who ever came to this country
back then to become an American.
[RAA:
"Processed" meant "checks" for Criminal backgrounds, for
Contagious Diseases, for a Sponsor, Economic Resources, or Skills that will
assure that the Immigrant will NOT be a burden on Society.

diversity, so that the
It is not like
today where illegal immigrants make their way into the United States by hiding
in the back of trucks, jumping trains, flying-in unnoticed, floating on rafts,
tunneling underground orworst of allwalking right across our southern borders,
leaving litter, slaughtering animals, bringing third-world illnesses, only to
overcrowd our educational institutions, demand and receive free medical care,
and consume our assistance (welfare, disability) systems. Its notable that
Social Security and Medicareearned by Americans--will soon run out, and yet the
illegals put nothing into it, and most Americans will
never benefit from it. Social Security will be depleted entirely by 2040, if
not sooner, and Medicare will be gone by between 2012 and 2015. Guess whos
getting funds we labored for?
They do not come
here to become Americans; rather, they come to workwith many not reporting
income taxes so that they can send more money back to their country and enrich
their economy. They come to use our sophisticated medical carefree of cost to
them, while honest and legal immigrants and Americans cant get any medical
care without paying high insurance rates. They come to wring the guts out of
our schools; they come to bear their children so they instantly and
automatically and magically turn into citizens, receiving all the benefits
Americans pay for; and they come with their criminals and felons, dumping them
in our motherland. Read all the articles on illegal aliens at
www.newswithviews.com, particularly Lynn Stuters
who profiles the hell American families go through to get medical care while
the illegals are upfront and personal with doctors,
ERs, clinics, and pharmacies.
