It has been quite a while since I last posted. Much has happened, I have gotten lax in my preps, and in my homelife. This ends today. I have much to say, and it is difficult to use analagies, as there are none. I intend to simply write what I feel, and think.
Amnesty cities-
There are a number of cities in these United States that have made it a matter of public policy to ignore, and thereby condone, illegal immigration. Pheonix in paticular. City officials have directed peace officers to "don't ask-don't tell" in all dealings with persons illegally in this country. This is NOT a race issue, as most of the pro-illegal try to pretend. The biggest arguement we hear is that it could lead to...could promote feelings of.... raises certain issues of... etc.etc.etc. CRAP! In its purest form, this is an issue of law. An example of this is, illegal wiretapping. Not only is it invasive, dangerous, and expensive, it is simply illegal. illegal immigration is also invasive, our social services, have become immigration services, and previously strict laws, and policies have been extremely relaxed to accomodate illegals.
In the early 1900's immigrants came to our shores by the millions. They came by way of Ellis Island Immigration Center, and while it is true they brought with them their own cultures, and language, they came legally. America has been called the great melting pot, with many diverse cultures, and people lending their own identity to our common heritage as Americans. It is easy to see we are not isolationists. The issue of illegal immigration is the first word in the term, illegal. Immigration is NOT the issue.
How can any elected official, in any city in America, who has taken an oath of office to uphold the law, direct police officers not to contact, or even make issue of, a persons citizenship status, and still expect to retain their office? When a person commits a crime (illegally immigrates), and another person condones that action, or turns a blind eye to it, that person is guilty of conspiracy to commit.

I'm all for immigration. As long as it is done legally. It not only provides those coming to our country the opportunity for a better life, but it also allows the natives to experience other cultures within their home. America, and it's citizens don't "owe" the illegals anything, yet they manage to receive benefits that honest, hard working, legal American citizens can't.
