It is amazing that he and the others don't realize that our country is different now than it was when a vast unsettled continent lay before the Founding Fathers. That and its relationship to environmental consideration are the main reasons for favoring restraint on immigration issues. Solano must be really dumb to see everything in terms of race.ultimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624967903736347171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-1657136731357119472008-02-26T09:27:00.000-06:002008-02-26T09:27:00.000-06:00Then you don't know the law, dee. As I said befor...Then you don't know the law, dee. As I said before, the key word here is "knowingly" transporting an illegal alien. You are spinning the truth again when you say that racial profiling is going on against Latinos in traffic stops. How many times do you have to be told with articles to back it up that only those arrested for a serious crime will be asked to prove their legal status in this country? Is that aldheimers thing kicking in again?<BR/><BR/>Again, the MM have no power to legislate bills in congress. So why do you keep bringing them up just because they support a certain bill? The NCLR and other Hispanic advocacy groups support certain bills too. So what? Keep the race card in your wallet, will you?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-49812767187916846582008-02-26T08:54:00.000-06:002008-02-26T08:54:00.000-06:00Dianne,My biggest complaint about the laws is the ...Dianne,<BR/>My biggest complaint about the laws is the portion that makes them restrictionist. The restrictionist portion includes verbiage: "makes it illegal to knowingly transport illegal immigrants." The result = police proactively making stops, racially profiling all Hispanics or Native Americans just because they are brown, then asking for ID of all in the car, as they did in Tulsa, the home of the MM promoters of the bill.Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09583438645860375661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-78105704695483442572008-02-26T08:24:00.000-06:002008-02-26T08:24:00.000-06:00This week illegal immigration is being debated in ...This week illegal immigration is being debated in the Kansas legislature. Focus is on employers and also to make certain illegal aliens are not using public (citizen) benefits. Testimony was heard from local contractors (right close to me) who have been run out of business because they can't compete with companies hiring illegals, not paying them overtime, etc. Feds demonstrated E-verify during the hearing.<BR/><BR/>I still think the focus must be on employers and sanctions for knowingly hiring illegals. <BR/><BR/>This wasn't even covered in the KC Star this morning but today illegal immigrant supporters will testify and mark my word, it will be front page news tomorrow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5548695401579410439.post-13843693653989972812008-02-26T07:45:00.000-06:002008-02-26T07:45:00.000-06:00Tell me dee, what would "non-restrictionist" laws...Tell me dee, what would "non-restrictionist" laws be then? Wouldn't that just nullify the concept of laws, period?<BR/><BR/>What are these equal rights you speak of that are being violated? What citizen group isn't getting equal rights? Why would "immigrants" be protesting? You have a problem with benefits being cut off to illegal aliens?<BR/><BR/>This isn't about the Latino community per se.
