One of the problems with illegal immigration into this country is, one political party is giving them amnesty constantly for entering illegally, which is a crime.
It's a crime, period. No debates, and no Amnesty should be given.
For those of you that are Registered Democrats, I do not wish to offend you. If you are here and you like knives, hey, you might like firearms too.
However, the simple fact of the matter is, the Democratic Party is controlled by a radical group of left-wing Socialists. (I can prove that if you want to dispute it as they have their own website).
Now, if you enter a country illegally, a crime, and then one political group offers you Amnesty, who are you going to vote for?
You're going to vote for those that handed you Amnesty for your crime.
Another thing is, most people really do not understand that this is not a "Democracy."
The United States of America is a Constitutional Republic that operates on precious few Democratic Principles.
In this last Election, you saw the truth in my last statement. The Popular Vote declared Gore the winner. But this is a Republic and contrary to the incessant whine of Socialists and people who are indeed ignorant of their own Form of Government, the Electoral College was attacked and there was talk of doing away with it.
The Electoral College was put in place for a specific reason, so the "Population Centers" of the country, the Cities, could not rule over the rest of the country. I challenge anyone to consult a county by county map of the voting results of the last Election Cycle. USA Today's Website had the map up for a long time. I do not know if it is still on their website. It was clear that this was one of the rare instances where the Electoral College saved a whole country from the views, opinions and policies of a man that was popular only in the Cities of this country.
Whole News Programs and Talk Shows were centered on the fact that the Republicans were gutting "Our Democracy." And the simple fact is, contrary to all the incorrect use of these terms, there is no Democracy here to gut. This is not a Democracy. A Democracy is two wolves and one sheep voting on what and who is for dinner.
That's the truth of the matter. And we have so many problems, look at what the one Forumite stated about someone suing Alabama because the Driver's Test was not in Spanish. This is not Spain, this is not Mexico. People used to come here to be American, now they come here primarily to get on the wealthy teat. That's not the way this country was supposed to be Sports Fans.
There is nothing at all wrong with wishing to keep your Identity and Ethnicity, but when you think you can move to another country, in many cases, illegally, be granted Amnesty for your crime and then force an issue like your language being adopted, well...you decide.
Now, alot of good people have moved here from Mexico, Central and South America, and they have entered legally and they cling to the Democratic Party because of the name. "Democracy" is much more favorable than a Banana Republic, third world dictatorship, and I understand their confusion. They just don't know or understand that who they now support are the same corrupt Despots they just ran from, but the Despots are in their infancy here.
Rant mode off.
