Immigration vs. Colonization
This is Colonization Pure & Simple!
Folks, let's get serious: Not all people coming into the United States have any intentions of ever becoming citizens or paying taxes - we must be selective.
"Among developed nations, only the US and Canada still offer automatic citizenship to children born on their soil. Not a single European country follows the practice." - Liz Peek in the Fiscal Times.
They only wish to reap the generous benefits given from tax payers' pockets with no intentions or aspirations to be American citizens. They only want to establish colonies: ethnic living areas, ghettos, communes and separate communities devoid of the American experience with the national spirit or even the laws; i.e, Sharia Laws. No solid border protection erodes national sovereignty and immigration controls that leads to economic disaster - just ask the Europeans!
"The exorbitant cost of educating the children of illegal immigrants in public schools across the U.S. is sure to skyrocket now that a new study confirms the number of anchor babies has nearly doubled in the last few years and will likely keep growing.
Unauthorized immigrants comprise slightly more than 4% of the adult population of the U.S., but because they are relatively young and have high birthrates, their children make up a much larger share of both the newborn population (8%) and the child population (7% of those younger than age 18) in this country. [These figures are based on data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s March 2009 Current Population Survey.]
"U.S. taxpayers already dish out around $52 billion to educate the children of illegal aliens with local governments taking the biggest hit (nearly $50 billion) and the feds contributing about $2 billion. The biggest chunk goes to elementary and high school education, but a substantial portion ($8.3 billion) also goes to specialized instruction for limited English speakers and several hundred million dollars is spent on subsidized college tuitions.
"Those already astronomical figures will surely increase as the population of illegal immigrant offspring swells. A new study released by a nonprofit dedicated to chronicling “Latino’s diverse experiences in a changing America” reveals a surge in anchor babies that will inevitably take a huge toll on U.S. taxpayers. It also indicates that automatic citizenship granted to all U.S.-born children—as per the Constitution’s 14th Amendment—is a huge lure for illegal immigrants.
"That’s probably why illegal immigrants are having babies in the U.S. at a much higher rate than the general population, according to the Pew Hispanic Center study released this week. The number of children born to illegal immigrants in the U.S. jumped to 4 million from 2.7 million in a six-year period and the children of illegal aliens accounted for 340,000 out of the 4.3 million babies born in 2008, the latest year for which figures were available. [The latest year for report now available 2014.]
"This means that nearly one out of every 13 children born in the U.S. have an illegal immigrant parent. On a broader scale, nearly 79% of the 5.1 million children of illegal aliens were born in this country and are therefore U.S. citizens, the analysis found."
"This means that Americans will pay more to educate anchor babies as well as provide them with other welfare benefits normally denied if they were foreign born."
Obama's Bed & Breakfasts Create Jobs
Currently, in 2015, Obama by Presidential Executive Orders is feverishly granting clemency by commuting "non-violent" prisoner sentences to reduce the incarcerated inmate numbers. On July 13, 2015 it was the largest clemency grant since the 1960's. This is while alien arrests increased exponentially as lax federal laws allow more illegal aliens entry with residency.
A story below was printed in 2014 by an uber-liberal newspaper, the Los Angeles Times, crying about the need to incarcerate an even larger population of Hispanics; whining about the lack of jail space due to growing illegal aliens, criminals and gang felons populations; wailing about the poor families who cannot easily get out to visit their family members; sniveling about the detainees complaining about their diet and facilities--they are hardly a privileged class or are they?
Typically these illegal aliens all chose to come to the United States to win their "Jackpot of Welfare Gold for Life." President Obama has bequeathed upon these multitudes of uneducated, untrained and unwanted refugees whose own countries don't even want or need them either--frankly, they are a zero asset drain that bankrupts economies worldwide--just look at Europe bearing the African continent's illegal hordes flooding into the European Union with no education or trades taxing their economies, customs and cultures-SAD.
Think hard about all those illegal U.S. aliens, putting aside the obvious humanitarian feelings, they contribute nothing now or in the immediate future or even in the next generation paying with any substantive economic monetary growth to offset their huge social services burdens with billions more in taxes taken away from educated, working American citizens.
To even compete in earnings within a capitalistic society they must read and speak fluent English to get educated or trained to be productive individuals--"No habla in inglés, no hay trabajo!"--Painfully, many of them can't even read what I just wrote in Spanish!
Southern California's largest immigrant detention center to expand
KATE LINTHICUM
July 8, 2014
Immigrant advocacy groups are protesting the expansion of Southern California's largest immigrant detention center, arguing the federal government should instead be directing resources to children seeking asylum.
The sprawling detention complex in the high desert town of Adelanto has the capacity to hold 1,300 men. The construction project underway will add 650 beds, including a women’s housing unit.
Immigrant advocates have long opposed a federal quota that requires the government to pay for 34,000 beds in detention centers each night. They say the government should not be spending to expand its detention system for immigrants, especially as the country grapples with how to house a recent influx of asylum-seeking minors from Central America.
The Adelanto facility houses detainees in ICE custody who are waiting for a decision in their immigration cases or are waiting to be repatriated. Detainees wear prison-style jumpsuits and often stay there for months at a time.
The facility is run by GEO Group, a private company from Florida. GEO is contracted by the city of Adelanto, which signed an intergovernmental service agreement with ICE to house detainees.
Officials in Adelanto support the expansion, which they say will help the town's struggling economy, which is grappling with an 18% unemployment rate. The city, which also faces a $2.6-million budget deficit, earns 75 cents each day from GEO for every detention bed filled, according to Adelanto City Manager Jim Hart. More beds mean more money for the town. “It takes an existing facility, expands it, and creates more jobs,” Hart said. “That’s a financial benefit for the city.”
On Monday, several immigrant advocacy groups asked U.S. Rep. Judy Chu (D-Monterey Park) to tour the facility at Adelanto, where she spent three hours walking the grounds, sampling the food in the cafeteria and browsing the resources available in the center's law library.
Speaking to immigrant advocates protesting outside, Chu said she did not notice anything especially worrisome about the facility, although she said she spoke to one inmate who complained that detainees were not given enough to eat or enough time to work on their cases in the law library.
Happy Easter in June?

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave!
2015 Freedom March - Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama
The Confederate battle flag, called the "Southern Cross" or the cross of St. Andrew, has been described as a proud emblem of Southern heritage. However. due to our President and liberal politicians this symbol has been tagged and transformed down into a symbol of racial hatred; so flags or images have been taken down in public places.
Just recently the student government of the University of California at Irvine recently voted to remove the American flag as offensive while professors supported this action too. It's because others will find it provocatively obnoxious by its presence as it represents a superiority over other peoples and nations. So I guess these students and teachers are angry as the American flags flying our colors eventually prevailed in spite of their protests?--but that's American freedom in action!
The Black unrest fomented by divisive Liberal politicians has created a human tragedy in which partisan lip service is offered when a flag is removed so hatred is erased--and that is their sum total of a great symbolic solution? In truly fighting the root causes of this social blight Obama does not address the broken Black family homes with divorces or no husbands, out of wedlock children, welfare check recipients, Black on Black crimes, juvenile delinquencies, joblessness due to poorly uneducated youths, lack of training in trades or jobs moving overseas due to higher Federal government taxes and regulations.
So now in the name of diversity and fairness new flags are flying and paraded down our streets unashamedly. Doesn't this show our country is taking on a renewed image to mean embracing the freedom of speech or expression without repression under the Constitution that's without insulting or, Heaven forbid, making others feel that they're being subjected to prejudice for personally held beliefs even if it's insulting to others? Well then, what about that Confederate flag too?
Oh well, I think these guys could be color guards at any high school football games, street parades or for that matter any public event where the U.S. Flag is flown.
I’m so glad we’ve gotten rid of that offensive Battle Flag of the South as well as that sick “Dukes of Hazzard” TV show (with the creepy orange car) that warps young minds.
Seen last verse of Francis Scott Key's Star-Spangled Banner?
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
