“Day Without Immigrants

Many liberals who don't know me call me a racist when I'm trying to make my points on this issue. But that is hardly the case my husband is a very legal American citizen who is Mexican and from Mexico. So is his mother and they both are appalled at these illegals. They worked very hard to follow the legal steps to become citizens and now they feel totally screwed over.

This frustration has lead us to research and ask questions such as .... Why is there so much News coverage (BTW with a very positive spin) on the illegal immigration issue? In the years since the Iraq war started why has there hardly been any News coverage (few if any) of the anti-war protest? Which my husband and I have been to several local protest. Why is it that any network that has reported on any anti-war protest report it with a negative spin? Not to mention that war protesters are only allowed FREE SPEECH ZONES, get harassment from police, and fear getting arrested by simply carrying a sign or wearing a t-shirt, or being out of the FS ZONE.

Mean while the illegal immigrant protesters seem to have tons of News coverage. Headline news in fact not to mention total freedom to march any where they feel ... blocking streets, jamming cities with little if any repercussions.

Now in light of these things I think the big question is ...Who is funding and promoting the illegal immigrants protests/boycott? RICH MEN and the MEXICAN GOVERNMENT! I don't speak or understand much Spanish but my husband and mother-in-law do and they tell me that the Spanish media is inundated with propaganda and some of it is pretty unfriendly. La Raza is a group that my family fears.

These protest and boycotts go deeper than just this but its a place to start your own research behind the NEWS we're all force fed due to the media control. From both sides American and Mexican. We're all being mislead in some way.

There are few RICH MEN (if any) willing to promote the anti-war issues because there is no money to be made from it. In the end MONEY always wins. They wanted a War they got it despite all the world wide protest which were rarely covered! Amazing don't you think? Look out Iran! And now unfortunately the illegal immigrants are mislead suckers to a RICH MANS WORLD of manipulation. I fear most of us are manipulated, and side tracked on so many issues world wide.

When I read, study, hear about how America has caused the problems in Mexico I know this is true but I will also say few voting American citizens had much to do with what our SO CALLED representatives (after elected) have done along with the Mexican government to create the low quality of life style in Mexico.

Although I have yet to see one immigrant (illegal) who looks like they have missed many meals. The food in Mexico must be pretty damn good judging by all the very healthy looking illegal immigrants I've seen in the media clip as they come across the border. Guess the mainstream missed that aspect of the spin. If we're talking "starving" then that is a serious issue but I think we're talking more about wanting a Lexus instead of a Kia. All cars are just a means of transportation its just a matter of quality. Hell we'd take a Lexus if they're giving them away but we're not interested in doing the EXTRA WORK and giving up precious time to pay for a car so we will just drive a car we can afford. My family and I are not going to steal one then protest and demand rights after we broke the law to get the car in the first place.

The issue in Mexico, unlike other countries, isn't about starvation it's about materialism, living a certain life style. Which it is understandable to want better things ... they, like my family, just need to go through the LEGAL steps and become a citizen and stop expecting to be accommodated by this country and the legal (immigrants) citizens instead of having this country and citizens accommodate illegals and their culture.

And when the issue to change Mexico by protesting there the answer is that they can't protest in Mexico, well you're not allowed to protest in America either unless it promotes the RICH MAN agenda (just ask any anti-war protester or WTO protester, etc ... or better yet go to a protest) which judging by the total headline news coverage and positive spin it receives this whole immigrant issues reeks of RICH MAN manipulation of the masses. So I will say again these are simply human beings who have been mislead and inadvertently leading many of us to the slaughter.

Enjoy the victory though because I have NO DOUBT what-so-ever that everything these protesters are calling for will be met. All one needs to do is drive down your city streets and notice how many signs are already in Spanish. I say be careful what you put your energy and time into because when the other shoe drops I don't think any of us are going to like it.
