In the November 28 issue of the San Diego Union-Tribune Ruben Navarrette was waxing nostalgically in an opinion piece titled “Never Forgetting Where We Came From.” Navarrette begins by recounting his leaving his home in the California Central Valley and feeling guilty about turning his back on family and friends. Then he references expressions of nostalgia on the part of David Letterman, Bruce Springsteen, and the television show October Road.
Next, he points out that American young people leave their hometowns for the greener pastures of bigger cities. That, he explains, is why Governor Tom Vilsack of Iowa proposed recruiting illegal immigrants to help alleviate the state’s perpetual youth drain. What he does not explain is that the farmers, meatpackers, and other businessmen prefer, like Wal-Mart, to hire illegal immigrants for slave-wages than to offer honest wages and benefits to their own people.
In Navarrette’s words, “some folks are looking for immigrants to bail them out.” I would put it differently: Some folks are looking to get richer even if it means destroying their communities. Navarrett says that others resist “because they fear the cultural changes that immigrants might bring.” No kidding! FEAR is the key word here.
One illustration of what is to be feared if one’s community becomes a barrio is provided in the same issue of the paper in a story titled “Leader of Anti-Crime Group Attacked.” The leader is Alberto Capella, “who has spoken out boldly against violence and corruption in Baja California,” but who was “yesterday on the verge of tears,” having just survived “an attack at his house by heavily armed assailants,” his house “pockmarked with 220 shots.” CRIME, CORRUPTION, and VIOLENCE are the cultural changes that immigrants bring that ordinary Americans (those who cannot live isolated in affluent safe communities) fear.
And you might remember the recent story on Tijuana titled “Residents Protest the Surge in Crime Rate.” The president of the Baja California Citizens Council for Public Safety, Alberto Capella, said “kidnappings in Baja California are up for the third year in a row, with 220 so far this year.” So why would Americans not fear having the crime, corruption, and violence that is rampant in Mexico and other nations south of the border being brought—legally or illegally—into their communities?
As a rhetorician what Navarrette seeks to draw the reader into the universality of the theme of nostalgia for the home left behind so that it can be applied sympathetically to illegal aliens who have left their national home behind to invade the U.S., saying, “And I bet you thought that protesters waving Mexican flags were making some sort of obnoxious political statement. Nope. It’s a personal one.” Of course, the Mexican flags were a political statement, which was that THE HISPANIC NATION IN AMERICA IS UNITED. But Navarrette is right when he says that the flags expressed a personal sentiment, which is Mexico, not America, is the first home of the Mexicans-in-America. And everywhere the Mexicans go in America they create mini-Mexicos called barrios.
Navarrette intentionally uses equivocation when he tries to get his reader in the mood for understanding the nostalgia the illegal immigrants feel for their homeland by implying that leaving home to go off to college is similar to leaving one’s national homeland to go off to live, work, benefit, and multiply in someone else’s national homeland. But that is not the situation. The situation is that Mexicans consider themselves first and foremost Mexicans living in America. Mexicans will never be Americans for two reasons. First, their homeland is next door. Second, they see Americans as gringos, i.e., as their enemy.
Mexicans have hated Americans ever since the Americans took a large part of Mexico, which Mexicans call Aztlan, and Americans will always hate Mexicans for invading their country illegally and because they know that the invasion has been encouraged by the Mexican government, and now a Mexican television network, TV Azteca, will be providing English lessons on television in America. What better way to ensure that the millions strong civilian army that now occupies the U.S. will remain?
Navarrette says that for Americans “who never forgot where they came from and still remember the road back, it shouldn’t be so hard to relate” to the homesick Hispanics who have set up camp in America. That is like saying the Iraqi people should feel sympathy for the homesick Americans soldiers who illegally invaded Iraq. I don’t think so. Beside, the Mexicans still have a homeland to feel nostalgic about. Soon Americans will feel nostalgia for a homeland that will have been taken from them. Then every road back will lead them to a barrio. Take, for example, Navarrette’s hometown of Fresno, California. Latinos are now the dominate group in Barrio Fresno.

Americans Have Less to Be Thankful for This Thanksgiving
That American have less to be thankful for this Thanksgiving was a thought that came to my mind as I was reading Ruben Navarrett’s recent propaganda piece title “Honesty in the Immigration Debate.” Navarrett begins by saying “Bill Richardson rocks.” Well of course he does. Richardson is a Hispanic and one of Mexico’s key allies in its invasion of America.
Navarrett suggests that Richardson is auditioning for a vice presidential nomination and recognizes that “the audition is going well.” If Richardson is successful, America will be only one heartbeat from becoming a Hispanic nation. Thus Navarrett’s excitement is understandable. Imagine President Richardson vetoing every bill that he considers anti-immigrant. And imagine all the federal judges and thousands of other appointees having Spanish surnames.
Navarrett thought it was terrific how Richardson characterized as dysfunctional the porous border with Mexico, the bottleneck immigration program, the U.S. Congress’ inept handling of immigration, and the political discussion of illegal immigration. Most Americans would agree and believe the solution would be to shut down the border altogether, but that would require bringing home U.S. troops so they could protect the home front. Of course, that is not what Navarrett has in mind, which is to have no border at all with Mexico.
He criticizes Americans for “falling into old habits and repeating familiar depiction of immigrants—legal or illegal—as inferior to natives, defective in their culture, slow to assimilate, prone to criminal activity, and devoid of any positive values. However, the 1996 National Youth Gang Survey revealed that Hispanics make up the largest portion of gang membership—44 percent. The high school drop-out rate for Hispanics 45 percent. Concerning sexually transmitted disease the National Library for Medicine said that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that in 1991 the rates of reported congenital syphilis cases among Hispanics were substantially above the national average for non-Hispanic whites as were rates of primary and secondary syphilis. Finally, one report warned that while overall illegal drug use among U.S. teens was down, Hispanic teens' use of marijuana, cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine outpaced use by their white and black peers. In other words, by allowing the Hispanic invasion, American is importing the problems associated with third-world nations.
These are just some of the inconvenient truths that one can find about Hispanics living in America (and the news south of the border, which Navarrette also ignores, is not any brighter). Why the blinders? Because Navarrette is a Hispanic rhetorician whose job it is to pangloss the effects of Hispanic immigrants upon American society. But these problems are not the key issue for millions of Americans. The Hispanicization of American’s communities is. In other words, most Americans do not what America transformed into Amerxico, regardless of how attractive Hispanic culture might be to Navarrette and Richardson.
And why is it that Canadians are not invading America? Because Canadians have not created a dysfunctional society. The unpleasant fact here is that there is a fundamental difference between Canadian and Mexican cultures.
Navarrett says “Amen” to Richardson’s saying, “We should stop demonizing immigrants.” Well of course Richardson and Navarrett would believe this: they are Hispanics. But from the perspective of Americans, the Hispanic invasion is a threat to America in the same way demons were thought to be a threat to individuals. Remember Rosemary’s Baby? Well, that is what is happening to America: it is being possessed by an alien culture. It is the act of possessing and transforming that is demonic, not necessarily the people themselves (though Hispanic drug cartels and street gangs look pretty demonic).
Navarrett applauds Gov. Schwarzenegger’s saying that Americans should channel “their anger over illegal immigration toward the federal government and not toward immigrants.” But this is a red herring argument designed to distract from the main issue: that Hispanics have illegally invaded America and have become the seeds of a multitude of social, economic, and cultural problems in this country. As far as the federal government is concerned, the U.S. government is already an object of Americans’ fear and loathing.
Finally, Navarrett accuses those who are critical of immigrants as being racist. He does this by saying that the critics’ defending themselves will tell you that their “angst” is caused only by those who enter the country illegally, not by immigrants who enter the county legally. He calls this defense a “lovely sound bite.”
Angst is a form of fear, and what Americans fear is the loss of their homeland, which is what Mexico and many Mexican organizations have in mind for much of the United States. It has already occurred in many parts of the country. Recently, a friend told me he went into a Wal-Mart in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and everyone was speaking Spanish. It was as if he were in Mexico. He joked that they would have to provide him with a translator in order to check out. So yes, Americans would also object to tens of millions of immigrants legally entering their country—because legal or illegal, mass immigration will mean the destruction of the integrity of American culture. And when that occurs, Hispanics living in America will still have their national homes, such as Mexico; it will be Americans who be homeless.
So Americans have less to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. They have an economy running on four flat tires (public and private debt, a dollar on life-supports, the price of oil approaching $100 a barrel, and a collapsed housing market); they are fighting and losing wars at home and abroad; like Othello, they have squandered their reputation abroad (being seen as both evil and ridiculous); their politicians have become America’s firing squad; and their nation is being eroded by immigrants, so that by the end of the century their grandchildren will be aliens in what was once their homeland (and Thanksgiving dinner will consist of enchiladas, tacos, tamales, and sopaipillas, eaten in celebration of the birth of the new Hispanic Nation). Bon Appétit!

America’s Last Chance To Remain American
Ruben Navarrette, a Hispanic propagandist and spokesperson for the San Diego Union-Tribune, says it isn’t too late for Republican politicians to woo Hispanic voters. Of course, he is speaking on the behalf of Hispanics in general and Mexican illegal immigrants in particular, not Americans. In his articles it is as if Americans do not exist, only U.S. politicians and Hispanics, in other words, as if America has already become a Hispanic Nation. From a slightly different perspective, Navarrette’s role is that of a representative of Mexico negotiating America’s surrender in the present Mexican-American War. Let’s call it MAWII. You will notice that he is smiling in his photograph, and he has every reason to smile because this time around it looks like Mexico is going to win the war. Thus, America is in one of those rare situations in which a nation is losing two wars at once, one abroad and one at home.
In his article “Still a Chance To Woo Hispanic Voters” Navarrette refers to the GOP “condemning itself to years in the electoral wilderness by alienating an influential constituency.” In other words, the Republican Party should get out of the electoral wilderness by selling out to that influential constituency the people who have been invading the country for the last half-century and who are more committed to Mexico and the political party of La Raza Unida than to America or to either of its major political parties.*
The reason Navarrette is appealing to Republican politicians is because America has already been sold out to the illegal aliens by the Democratic Party either for votes or their Marxist ideology (that Americans should surrender their nation to the world’s downtrodden multitudes). The only difference between the democratic candidates in the presidential election is how much they are willing to grovel for Hispanic votes. Ironically, it is a Republican who may have set the lowest standard of obsequiousness, and that would be Senator John McCain. Among the Democratic candidates Senator Hillary Clinton most deserves the Benedict Arnold Medal of Dishonor for, as Navarrette puts it, “aggressively going after the Hispanic vote by racking up the endorsements of seemingly every Latino officeholder from East Los Angeles to the South Bronx.” In other words, voting for Hillary is raising the white flag of surrender to Mexico and the armies of illegals encamped in hundreds of cites across America.** Of course, she has been greatly helped by her husband Bill, whose sense of loyalty was pretty much demonstrated by his affair with Monica.
As you probably already know, Benedict Arnold was an American Revolutionary general and traitor whose planned to surrender West Point to the British for 20,000 pounds. The Benedict Arnold Medal of Dishonor should be given to American politicians who contribute to the surrender of America to those armies of the night that have been marching northward from Mexico, Central America, and South America into America. Of course, this means that most if not all Democratic politicians, many Republican politicians, and certainly the President of the United State should receive this medal.
Actually, Navarrette isn’t interest in the Republicans winning the election but only in Hispanics winning the election. And this should not be held against him. He is, first and foremost, a Chicano (note the title of his book A Darker Shade of Crimson: Odyssey of a Harvard Chicano) and totally committed to his people, unlike many Anglo-American politicians, businessmen, and American Catholics who are in favor of giving sanctuary to illegal immigrants. However, the Republicans can win the election without surrendering to the illegals if they are willing to be, unlike their rabid leader President Bush, flexible on some key and difficult issues. Two candidates who could pull this off are Thomas G. Tancredo and Michael D. Huckabee. The strategy would be to appeal to Democratic and undecided American voters, rather than to Hispanics, because what many Americans are looking for is a president who is interested in saving America for Americans and not for Mexico or the Hispanic Coalition called the Hispanic Nation.
What these politicians would need to do is create a triage that distinguishes the most important election issues from secondary issues. Below, some of those issues are examined.
Illegal Immigration
First and foremost, they should stand up against the illegal aliens and require that they return home and apply to enter the United States legally. Mexico is the greatest threat to the integrity of America, not Iraq***, not Iran, and not the terrorists. If Americans lose the present Mexican-American War, they can expect that their country will soon become totally criminalized as Mexico has been for decades if not forever. A glimpse of America’s Hispanicized future can be seen in a recent San Diego Union-Tribune article titled “Troubling Signs in Baja.” It describes recent attacks upon Americans foolish enough to visit Mexico by “paramilitary-style criminals.” Pat Weber, owner of San Diego Surfing Academy in Carlsbad, watched while Mexican gunmen “sexually assaulted his girlfriend before stealing $10,000 worth of computers, video cameras, and other gear.” Welcome to the land of Su Casa Es Mi Case. And as always, Mexican law-enforcement officers cannot be trusted because there is a good chance that they are corrupt and linked to criminal groups. Hundreds of cities and communities in the U.S. have already been criminalized by illegal aliens and their offspring. If it were not for Hispanic immigrants, the jails and prisons in California would not be overflowing. If Americans do not have the gumption to elect a president (and congressmen/women and senators) who is willing to stand up to Mexico and its civilian armies, then they deserve whatever they get (like the tourists visiting gangsterlandia south of the border) and they had better start arming lifeguards with AK-47s.
If American voters are unwilling to support the fight against illegal aliens, then it doesn’t matter who wins the election because America will have become a lost cause for everyone but those invading the country.
The Iraq War
The next president needs to get American troops out of Iraq because the Iraq war is bleeding America of American lives and of oceans of money, and because the war is unwinnable. Anyone who thinks the Iraqis are going to be friends of America after the war’s end (win—whatever that means—or lose) is an idiot. Eventually, Iraq will have a leader like Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez who will be more interested in serving his people than in being America’s friend. America could use such a leader, one not interested primarily in serving wealthy special interest groups but in serving the American people. Besides, almost all Iraqis have suffered harm as a result of the U.S. invasion of their homeland, and only a madman would think they will feel any loyalty toward us after the war.
The Homosexual Issue
Homosexuals are not a threat to America. I am not an advocate of their lifestyle and certainly don’t appreciate their influence upon Hollywood movies (such as Brokeback Mountain). However, the vast majority of American boys and girls do not want to be homosexuals. The biggest threat sexually to American values is the celebration of promiscuity in popular culture, not homosexuality. Mexican gangs and drug lords are a far greater threat to American communities than homosexuals are. Thus, I suggest that Republican presidential candidates take the position (a traditionally Republican position) that the states should decide how to handle the various issues regarding homosexuality, such as whether or not they should be able to marry. Personally, I could care less if they marry. If doing so is a sin, then let God punish them. Americans have other more pressing problems to worry about, such as water scarcity, deadly bacterial diseases killing young Americans inside and outside of high schools, spreading STDs, growing debt, a weakening dollar, a demoralized military, a weakening economy, skyrocketing gas prices, declining values of homes and increasing home foreclosures, etc.
Abortion
As with Homosexuality, let each state deal with the issue of abortion. It is an ugly issue and a dilemma at best. From a practical standpoint, I don’t want unprepared, uneducated, uninterested mothers raising children. Each child might be a blessing but only if it is brought up by caring, intelligent parents who have the wherewithal to care for the child properly, and not to use the child as a source of welfare income, which is exactly what many immigrants do through agencies such as Aid to Families with Dependent Children.
Protecting the Environment
An important issue, but again I would allow states, such as California, lead the way. However, the environmental change that is presently the greatest threat to America is demographic, the alienation of American society, which works out great for aliens, especially Mexicans, but is a disaster for Americans. In his book Gringo, Travis Barrett discusses the destruction of the America’s cultural ecology by the introduction of alien ecologies.
Universal Health-Care Coverage
Personally, I would be all for universal health-care coverage if it were not for the fact that I do not think the American government should be providing medical care (or any other social service) to people who entered the country illegally or to their children. If the democrats get into office, Americans can expect not only tens of millions of new Hispanic U.S. citizens, but also tens of billions of tax dollar to pay for their medical expensive. Of course, if the illegal aliens had to return home, the health care program might even be affordable.****
Kissing
Kissing was actually on the list of political issues that I consulted. I would say that if Americans vote for Hillary Clinton or any other candidate who does not have the cahones to stand up to the alien armies presently occupying America and to Mexico for its poorly kept secret war against the U.S., then Americans can expect their politicians to continue kissing the asses of illegal aliens and of those who sponsor them, which will mean very soon that Americans will be kissing America good-bye. And, by the way, expect the next alien invasion to come from Iraq—a little bad karma payback. Already in many American cities one can hear five times a day the Islamic calls to prayer, five times a day the sounds of a defeated America.
Perhaps the most important issue is the Direction for America. Democrats, many Republicans, businessmen, Catholics (and many other Christians) envision America’s becoming a multicultural society in which Americans will be just another alien minority by the end of this century. If America is to remain America and not a Hispanic Nation or simply a nation of strangers, then American voters must act now while they still are a majority. If they do not, their children can expect to live in an America not so different from what the surfers encountered on the beaches of Mexico. If that is what Americans decide to vote for, then they too will deserve the bad karma that will result. And if they think God will come to their rescue, then they need to take another look at the Iraq War, and perhaps another look a Genesis. By choosing unwisely, Adam and Eve also lost paradise.
*Another Hispanic propagandist and spokesperson is Linda Chavez, whose articles appear often in the San Diego Union-Tribune. In a recent article titled “Immigration Issue Can’t Save GOP” she basically argues that the Republicans ought to give up on the Mexican American War and wave the white flag of surrender before the millions of illegal immigrants currently invading and occupying cities across America, because, in her words, a “tough stand on immigration is a big loser with Hispanic voters, who are becoming a larger share of the electorate.” In other words, if you want votes, sell out America. She can count on most if not all Democratic politicians to do just that, and I expect the Republicans will come around to way of thinking because the two things they value most are money and votes. What this means for illegal immigrants is something they have known all along: crime does pay. Whose side is Chavez on? The immigrants’ side, of course. She is a buddy of Mexico’s most powerful ally in America, George W. Bush, who in 2001 nominated her for Secretary of Labor, but the nomination was withdrawn after it was revealed that she had allegedly given money to an illegal immigrant from Guatemala who lived in her home. (Is this an example of providing residential sanctuary to illegals?) She also was U.S. Expert to the U.N. Sub-commission on the Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities. You have to give Chavez her due: unlike many American politicians, she has remained faithful to her people.
**You might have heard about the new two-punch theory of how the dinosaurs were driven into extinction. First there was a series of volcanic eruptions that caused a greenhouse effect, which put stress on the environment, and then an asteroid tipped the environment into negative territory for the big creatures. Well, it seems that America is facing a similar situation. First, George Bush and his predecessors allowed the threat of illegal immigration to grow catastrophically, and now I am afraid that if Hillary or any of the other democratic candidates get into office the result will be similar to the asteroids upon the existence of the dinosaurs: America’s extinction.
*** It was only after America invaded Iraq did Iraq become a threat to America, killing thousands of American soldiers and draining the American treasury of hundreds of billions of dollars.
****There might even be fewer fires like the ones that recently ravaged Southern California. Today’s San Diego Union-Tribune contains a story about Steven Santos Robles Jr., who volunteered to helped battle one of last month's wildfires in San Diego County but who is also on parole for setting seven San Diego County wildfires that charred thousands of acres and destroyed about a dozen homes.
In his article “Still a Chance To Woo Hispanic Voters” Navarrette refers to the GOP “condemning itself to years in the electoral wilderness by alienating an influential constituency.” In other words, the Republican Party should get out of the electoral wilderness by selling out to that influential constituency the people who have been invading the country for the last half-century and who are more committed to Mexico and the political party of La Raza Unida than to America or to either of its major political parties.*
The reason Navarrette is appealing to Republican politicians is because America has already been sold out to the illegal aliens by the Democratic Party either for votes or their Marxist ideology (that Americans should surrender their nation to the world’s downtrodden multitudes).

Each child might be a blessing but only if it is brought up by caring, intelligent parents who have the wherewithal to care for the child properly, and not to use the child as a source of welfare income, which is exactly what many immigrants do through agencies such as Aid to Families with Dependent Children.
Protecting the Environment
An important issue, but again I would allow states, such as California, lead the way. However, the environmental change that is presently the greatest threat to America is demographic, the alienation of American society, which works out great for aliens, especially Mexicans, but is a disaster for Americans. In his book Gringo, Travis Barrett discusses the destruction of the America’s cultural ecology by the introduction of alien ecologies.
Universal Health-Care Coverage
Personally, I would be all for universal health-care coverage if it were not for the fact that I do not think the American government should be providing medical care (or any other social service) to people who entered the country illegally or to their children. If the democrats get into office, Americans can expect not only tens of millions of new Hispanic U.S. citizens, but also tens of billions of tax dollar to pay for their medical expensive. Of course, if the illegal aliens had to return home, the health care program might even be affordable.****
Kissing
Kissing was actually on the list of political issues that I consulted. I would say that if Americans vote for Hillary Clinton or any other candidate who does not have the cahones to stand up to the alien armies presently occupying America and to Mexico for its poorly kept secret war against the U.S., then Americans can expect their politicians to continue kissing the asses of illegal aliens and of those who sponsor them, which will mean very soon that Americans will be kissing America good-bye. And, by the way, expect the next alien invasion to come from Iraq—a little bad karma payback. Already in many American cities one can hear five times a day the Islamic calls to prayer, five times a day the sounds of a defeated America.
Perhaps the most important issue is the Direction for America. Democrats, many Republicans, businessmen, Catholics (and many other Christians) envision America’s becoming a multicultural society in which Americans will be just another alien minority by the end of this century. If America is to remain America and not a Hispanic Nation or simply a nation of strangers, then American voters must act now while they still are a majority. If they do not, their children can expect to live in an America not so different from what the surfers encountered on the beaches of Mexico. If that is what Americans decide to vote for, then they too will deserve the bad karma that will result. And if they think God will come to their rescue, then they need to take another look at the Iraq War, and perhaps another look a Genesis. By choosing unwisely, Adam and Eve also lost paradise.
*Another Hispanic propagandist and spokesperson is Linda Chavez, whose articles appear often in the San Diego Union-Tribune. In a recent article titled “Immigration Issue Can’t Save GOP” she basically argues that the Republicans ought to give up on the Mexican American War and wave the white flag of surrender before the millions of illegal immigrants currently invading and occupying cities across America, because, in her words, a “tough stand on immigration is a big loser with Hispanic voters, who are becoming a larger share of the electorate.” In other words, if you want votes, sell out America. She can count on most if not all Democratic politicians to do just that, and I expect the Republicans will come around to way of thinking because the two things they value most are money and votes. What this means for illegal immigrants is something they have known all along: crime does pay. Whose side is Chavez on? The immigrants’ side, of course. She is a buddy of Mexico’s most powerful ally in America, George W. Bush, who in 2001 nominated her for Secretary of Labor, but the nomination was withdrawn after it was revealed that she had allegedly given money to an illegal immigrant from Guatemala who lived in her home. (Is this an example of providing residential sanctuary to illegals?) She also was U.S. Expert to the U.N. Sub-commission on the Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities. You have to give Chavez her due: unlike many American politicians, she has remained faithful to her people.
**You might have heard about the new two-punch theory of how the dinosaurs were driven into extinction. First there was a series of volcanic eruptions that caused a greenhouse effect, which put stress on the environment, and then an asteroid tipped the environment into negative territory for the big creatures. Well, it seems that America is facing a similar situation. First, George Bush and his predecessors allowed the threat of illegal immigration to grow catastrophically, and now I am afraid that if Hillary or any of the other democratic candidates get into office the result will be similar to the asteroids upon the existence of the dinosaurs: America’s extinction.
*** It was only after America invaded Iraq did Iraq become a threat to America, killing thousands of American soldiers and draining the American treasury of hundreds of billions of dollars.
****There might even be fewer fires like the ones that recently ravaged Southern California. Today’s San Diego Union-Tribune contains a story about Steven Santos Robles Jr., who volunteered to helped battle one of last month's wildfires in San Diego County but who is also on parole for setting seven San Diego County wildfires that charred thousands of acres and destroyed about a dozen homes.

Halloween Has Become a Lot Scarier for Americans
Ruben Navarrette Jr. said in a recent San Diego Union-Tribune column that San Diego is America’s most flammable region. That is certainly true in more ways than one. He also said that the city is “one of the most desirable and livable cities in the country.” But though that may be true for the growing Latino population, it is less true for the Americans living in San Diego, because though the fires are out San Diegans are still very much threatened by the fires of illegal immigration.
An American Halloween nightmare is having hundreds of Latino children knocking at the door and saying TREAT AND TRICK, and never seeing a single American child because their parents have either moved out of the city for greener, albeit dwindling, American pastures or have kept their children inside their grated homes for protection in what has become a alien and hostile neighborhood. The fact is, traditional American communities become barrios once illegal Hispanic immigrants move in, and barrios become infested with criminal activity, especially that caused by Hispanic street gangs. Just ask the black Americans who live in the community where 14-year-old Cheryl Green was murdered by a Hispanic gang member. (Travis Barrett’s novel GRINGO is dedicated to Cheryl.)
Even Navarrette, a true friend of and propagandist for illegal immigrants (he doesn’t believe local police should enforce immigration laws), acknowledges in his column that illegal Mexican immigrants are “suspected” of being out during the fires tricking the good citizens at Qualcomm Stadium by treating themselves to truckloads of relief supplies. Navarrette calls it a “despicable act,” but the illegal act that brought them into the country in the first place is an understandable illegal act of desperation that should receive the forgiveness of amnesty.
What this way of thinking overlooks is the connection between the crimes committed by illegal immigrants and their children and the crime of illegally entering the United States in the first place. Were the illegal aliens not in the U.S., they could not commit crimes in the U.S. And let’s face it, breaking the law is nothing new among illegal Hispanics immigrants, who break the law when they invade America (by land and sea), use forged papers to get jobs, drive without a license or with an illegal license, and so on and on.
For illegal immigrants, crime does pay, but Americans foot the bill in the form of taxes, medical costs (such as the $45,000 to $500,000 for each of the 11 illegal aliens in UCSD burn units?), criminalized communities, deteriorating social services (schools, hospitals, etc.), lower wages, and deadly diseases (for example, the two following news items: “HIV likely entered the United States through a single infected immigrant from Haiti, scientists said Monday” and “Several infectious diseases that are rare in the native US population occur often in the Latin American population”).
Why is it that illegal immigration has not been attacked with the same vigor as the fires were? The damage that illegal aliens are doing and will continue to do to America is far more severe. Americans who lost their homes to the fire can rebuild, but once American communities have been taken over by illegal aliens, they are lost forever. Mexicans living in America will soon celebrate the Day of the Dead. I expect that the Day of the Dead could become a national Latino holiday celebrating the demise of the old America and the rise of the new Hispanic Nation.
In his book STRANGERS, Travis Barrett describes an American family who suffers a house-jacking by illegal aliens. As they flee what was once their community, but now belonging to the invaders, the father is shocked to discover a Day-of-the-Dead photo in which his family have become skeletons. The story may seem far-fetched, but if cities did not have million-dollar graffiti removal programs, it would become frighteningly clear just how many American communities have become gang infested barrios. In fact, I suggest that the graffiti be left as a warning sign indicating the alien transformation that is rapidly occurring in the United States, a transformation that is not so unlike what is seen in zombie movies. Suddenly, one’s neighbors have become aggressive strangers.
I expect that by the end of this century, Americans will have become ghosts, like today’s Native Americans, haunting a nation that was once theirs. Then Halloween will be really scary and the Day of the Dead will be a celebration of America’s demise. Happy Halloween!
