The word "hate" is becoming much overused in our national discourse these days. That shit is starting to lose all meaning. It's not necessarily hateful to point out the problems caused by uncontrolled immigration. That lower income blacks will be negatively impacted is a fact. BTW, here's another guy filled with "hate" in this vid...:-? [youtube]8unGH7S0A8w[/youtube]
R.I.P Terry Anderson Lower income Blacks....middle class blacks. Lower income Whites...middle class whites. Both hurt by this wave of citizens from one of the wealthiest countries on earth.
The U.S. cannot absorb all of Latin America into its borders. Flaminghetero is touching on something though. These Latin American illegal immigrant children have to pass through MEXICO to get here, which explains a lot. Mexico isn't going to allow thousands of illegals to pass through their country unless they were guaranteed illegals were not going to stay within their borders. The only way to do that is make sure those illegals end up on OUR southern border. Which means MEXICO is directly involved in making sure these kids get here by the thousands. IMO the corrupt Mexican government is behind this influx of illegal kids. Most families in Latin America don't have the thousands of dollars to pay a smuggler to get them to the U.S. There's no conceivable financial way these dirt poor kids from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala are making this trek without the support of a state government IMO. Mexico IMO is providing safe transport for these kids to get here. It's a damn shame we don't have any real allies in South and Latin America anymore. Mexico could have turned ALL these kids around from the beginning the minute they showed up on their southern border. But for some reason they let them pass on through. For those who favor taking these kids in, be prepared for the next step which is REUNIFYING these minors with their families back home, which means bringing them to the U.S. too. It's all a scam. No one born outside this country has a right to be in this country. That may sound cruel but it's reality. The U.S. is the only entity capable of making the rules that dictate its own immigration policy. Once we allow other countries to tell us who we should take in, game over. Coming from a country that's dangerous is not enough to get a free pass to America.
Zimbauwe is one corrupt state with no safe water to drink with a dictator who ruled that country for 34 years. True without China would be really Third World since it replaced its colonial masters. Only the elites have the goodies not the regular citizen.
America is too corrupt to lecture anybody about corruption. Dictators burn books close schools and murder or discredit intellectuals. Under Mugabe.. Zim has become the most literate nation on the entire continent. Schools and colleges are everywhere..and more on the way, That is one strange dictator. Mugabe ran afoul of the west by educating his people and kicking racist land-grabbers the fuck out. Don't drink the poisioned white supremecist media koolaid. No safe water to drink??:smt089 This hater is pure comedy. An american should be ashamed to make such a claim. We're damn near out of fresh water in Nevada...California..and Texas. America has THOUSANDS of lakes streams and rivers too contaminated to swin in...much less fish from.
The Mexican government has nothing to do with the shuttling of people into the United States . This is done by Coyotes(smugglers) paid by the those people to smuggle those going into the United States and those fees are very steep. The Coyotes transport them(most of the time, women on the trip are often raped or killed). People have died in transport because the vehicles used are cramped with little ventilation. The U.S. Border Patrol has found a spot where the rapes and murders have occurred marked by women's panties found there) to the desert and leave them to take their chances and even the trek across the desert is dangerous(weather conditions, wildlife, drug smugglers, lack of food and water). Hikers hiking the Pacific Crest Trail, starting from Mexico even encounter immigrants on the trail.
You really think the families of these illegal immigrant children suddenly had thousands of dollars to pay smugglers to get to the U.S.?? You can't get to the U.S. from Latin America without going through Mexico, so I don't know how you remove Mexico from the equation. Mexico is 'allowing',(I'd say supporting and providing) safe passage from Latin America to the U.S. When we were at the height of the drug war in Colombia in the '80s and '90s and cities like Medellin had 700+ murders a year, we didn't see a flood of Colombian children at our borders. There's nothing predictable or normal about the influx of Latin American illegal immigrant kids we're seeing and there's a plan behind it from outside our borders to make sure they arrive. Follow the money and find out who's really providing the means for these kids to get here.
The Mexican government is aware of the influx of South Americans in their country. They probably don't want them there and they probably gave the Coyotes tacit consent to do what they do and the goverment looks the other way. In most cases, the immigrants were picked up the moment they arrived. I have never heard that the Mexican government profitted from the Coyotes. How much do you calculate the Mexican government recieved from the Coyotes?
very good thread. I always laugh at the misconceptions and stereotypes people believe about Africa. I guess the media is largely to blame.
Africa has come a long way since the 1960s, but when 200 Nigerian school girls can be kidnapped and one of the most prosperous and powerful countries on the entire continent can't do shit about it, I don't think you can go around saying the global media is responsible for making average folk believe things aren't quite right in the motherland.
good thread, fh. I see you're still forcing ppl to think And "scabs" is the perfect word. ... undermining the working class and middle class. Even the lowly single cell organism has sense enough to protect its resources from invaders.... Fools talking about "open borders" are gonna find themselves unable to work in certain areas unless they can speak spanish... And unable to walk through certain areas where all others can... These illegals should try standing up for their social and economic mobility in the countries they come from, instead of undermining the progress this country has made with their "throwback" values... And to all you ready to just welcome them in, doesn't charity begin at home?
Even when I remind them that excessive immigration HISTORICALLY hurts Black people....they still don't give a damn. They'll wake up when as you say ,won't be able to safely walk thru certain areas...but of course it will be far too late. Black leaders in the past spoke out against immigration in their day Today's Black (mis)leaders can't even say the word Black without adding Hispanic or latino to it.As if they were lynched and jim crowed right alongside us. They turn a blind eye to racism perpetrated on us from those "people of color"...even to the point of blaming it on us...like Farrakhan does on the regular.
Sorry,but Zimbauwe is propped up by China and there is no transfer of power over there. Mugabe is not Mandela since the later did what no other African leader ever doeaceful transfer of power. Also,the guys who seised the White folk's land did not give it to the poor farmers. It is owned by most of his cronies. That African country is not like America since there was no Parliament and not much corruption in the US.
sorry but America is propped up by China too....and far more in debt than Zim. The entire US political apparatus is owned by the banks on wall street....sorry.
It's still about degrees of being fucked up. The USA has problems but Zimbabwe is in a much worse position short term than the United States, economically and politically. The largest holders of U.S. federal debt are still the American people, not China. As for Zimbabwe, China basically bought that entire country.
