Real Simple Solution to Illegal Immigration Raids

Do not come here Illegally

Hey folks,

Here is something else that is really annoys me. Illegal Aliens passing themselves, or others passing them off as, victims. Seems that in the little town of Postville Iowa, a community of about 2,200, had themselves a little Illegal Alien Rally yesterday. I mean little. About 1000 people

This is where the May 12 raid at Agriprocessors took place. The raid resulted in 389 arrests. Most of those arrested were Guatemalan and Mexican Illegal Aliens who lived in Postville and the surrounding area.

Well, this little protest of about a thousand strong, bused in by the way, were trying to make some kind of point. I guess, with chants like "End the raids!" "Yes, we can!" they are calling for Amnesty from THEIR actions. Why? THEY CAME HERE ILLEGALLY. THEY worked at the plant ILLEGALLY. THEY are to BLAME. It IS THIER fault.

Some get it. According to this story. The AP - Iowa town become flash point in immigration debate By HENRY C. JACKSON, Associated Press Writer Some want to blame the town and Government, but some get it.

"It's not their fault," he said of the protesters. "It just didn't need to get to this, to a boiling point."

It IS the Illegal Alien's fault.

"This is an awesome moment, a historic moment," said Sister Mary McCauley of St. Bridget's. "We're calling for reform, not raids."

NO IT ISN'T Sister. It is about CRIMINALS that have come here, committed crimes as soon as they step foot on our soil and now want Amnesty for their CRIMES. They are NOT the victims you and some others would LOVE to see them as.

Some get it.

One of them was Claire Jamison, who said she'd traveled from Minneapolis to protest the protesters. She wore a hat emblazoned with a U.S. Border Patrol logo and held up a sign reading "What would Jesus do? Obey the law" as she shouted across the street.

"I'm just so fed up as an American. We have laws. Why can't they obey our laws?" Jamison said. "I empathize with those people, but they are not victims. They should not have even been here."

Of course the article ends in support.

The reaction from Postville residents appeared largely supportive. Cindy Moser, 53, from nearby Elkader, said her daughter and son-in-law were marching while she watched her two grandchildren.

"If they want to come and work here I say fine," Moser said. "We all saw the effect of this. My grandson, he told me, 'Grandma, they took my friends away.' I hope this stops."

I say fine too. I have no problem with them coming here to better themselves and seeking a better future for their families. JUST DO IT LEGALLY. As far as this little sappy last sentence? "'Grandma, they took my friends away.' I hope this stops."

Real easy solution. Do not come here Illegally.
