Mecklenburg’s controversial immigration enforcement agreement under fire from Southern Poverty Law Center

You are a cold heartless man, Frank.

I used to know a man, an American born citizen, who grew up in a home where the family spoke Greek. They were all Americans, and all spoke fluent English, but with an accent. He was a cook in a restaurant that was owned by a Greek family.

Every time INS (now known as ICE) came around to harass the kitchen staff, he wound up at the police station waiting for someone to bring him his birth certificate.

Why don’t you as HIM what he thinks of your xenophobic profiling?

I bet you wouldn’t think it was such a good thing if the police kept hauling you off in handcuffs because you didn’t have a green card.

You would think the moron would eventually carry his papers with him. Why should anyone feel sorry for him after the first incident. In my example I said they do not speak english. I did not say speaking english with an accent. You only help support my case thanks.

I need to have my papers myself when I am driving a car or flying so no one is immune or special when it comes to having your papers.

Go back to school librarian and they will teach you that there is a time and a place for formal communications. Of course you do not understand this. This is why you continue to look like a fool correcting grammar in this forum. Now go find another windmill hehe.

Nowhere in this article does it say that Mr. Moreno is here LEGALLY, much less that he is a citizen.

If authorities refuse to investigate and deport those who are here illegally, that is unequal protection under the law. Apparently, if one is an illegal alien, one is offered a free pass on having to observe the laws of this country.

The real reason that illegal immigration exists in the United States of America is that the government and corporations want it. It is part of the strategy to “Divide and Conquer” and stay in power.

In the 60s, the average American started taking a good, hard look at what our government and corporations were doing. Americans finally started to wake up from our long slumber, and when we did, we were appalled at what we saw. We started to unite; it did not mater if one was white, brown, black, red, or yellow, we were all Americans. We had a common enemy, the corrupt: entrenched bureaucrats, professional politicians, and corporations. They saw the writing on the wall, the days of “business as usual” were numbered.

To combat this new awakening in the American public, the strategy bureaucrats, politicians, and corporations adopted was a three-pronged attack: mass immigration, legal and illegal; introducing the concept of multiculturalism; and creating the mechanism to fund legal challenges to any attempt by the American people regain control.

Up until the mid 60s, the United States of America had a conservative immigration policy that allowed approximately 100,000 to 200,000 foreign nationals a year into the U.S. Then it was changed. Over a million foreign nationals a year were allowed to enter the U.S. legally and illegally. There are now approximately 11 million foreign nationals illegally in the U.S. This demonstrates that illegal immigration is condoned, and is even rewarded by the government through social programs and amnesty. The new immigrants were encouraged to settle in separate communities, and retain their culture and language, discouraging assimilation into American culture and any attempts to define themselves as simply “American”.

The birth of multiculturalism was the next part of the attack on American solidarity. Ethnic studies was introduced on campuses and schools around the country, and later became a mandatory class. Ethnic studies evolved into ethnic clubs, and later departments based on race, e.g. Black studies, Latino studies, etc. Ethnic studies gave birth to a quasi-nationalism based on race. The hyphenated American was born. This created further conflict and division among the American people.

The final prong of this attack was the use of foundations, e.g., the Ford Foundation, etc. to funnel money from corporations to special interest groups, e.g., MEChA, La Raza, and their variants. These in turn fund special interest law firms, e.g., MALDEF, to challenge any attempt by the American citizen to regain control of our country. The American citizens have repeatedly: introduced legislation, e.g. prop 187, SB 1070, etc, voted on it, and had it overwhelmingly approved by the voters, only to have these special interest law firms challenge the legislation, tie it up in the courts, then have it struck down by a judge with a political agenda. The final insult happened when the elected officials failed to appeal that lower court decision and fight to have the will of the people protected, as they are required by law to do.

The idea of “Divide and Conquer” has been used throughout history to consolidate and retain power, and it is an act of war against the American people, of all colors. It has created strife and division among the American people, and preventing them from presenting a unified front and wresting power from the current establishment. The corrupt: bureaucrats, politicians, and corporations, are still in charge.

DLP, if your Greek friend is an American born citizen why dosn’t he carry his diver’s license or SS card when asked to show id down at the police station. If he has been asked a number of times by the PD to show some form of identifiation why hasn’t he got the message yet? I carry my dl and SS card in my wallet because I drive everyday and it is mandated by law. The people you defend are in this country illegally and are violating the laws of this country. It makes no difference if they have committed ANY crime, misdemeanor or felony, the penalty for illegal immigration is deportation. Why can’t you understand that. Maybe your Greek friend is exploiting illegal alien workers because it is more profitable for him to do so. Does he pay minimum wage/OT, health insurance, workmans comp ins., etc, etc. Don’t think so.

F#*k those punks.

There comes a time in the life of us all when we must lay
aside our books or put down our
tools and leave our place of
work and walk forth on the
road to meet the enemy face-to-face. Once and for all and at last.

As an American citizen of Hispanic origin, I find the SPLC to be an organization of charlatans and grifters whose statements are to be suspected of being nothing but a fear mongering campaign to feed their cash donation drives.

That being said, the only reason why the Moreno affair would elicit a request to terminate the 287-G program could only be if Moreno was an illegal alien and got caught at it. Now, the other side of the coin is that maybe Moreno was willing to go in knowing that he’d get caught in the 287-g program and would then create this particular situation to demand the termination of said program that only catches those illegal aliens who pass through the jail. One has to wonder why was it Moreno who came forward and not the “others came forth to speak out against Jackson and his history of sexual misbehavior while on duty”? Certainly a good question. Where were they and why did they not do their civic duty until Moreno was in 287-g custody?

BTW, DLP, My mom carried her green card with her wherever she went. Why, you may ask? Because since the 1940’s it has been the law of our country that all foreigners must carry their immigration documents with them AT ALL TIMES. Your Greek acquaintance just figured he was special and didn’t have to play by the rules.

What will end up happening in North Carolina is that the electorate will demand the passage of a bill of law similar to Arizona’s SB-1070, as will more and more states, until the illegal alien population saturates any state that has yet to pass such a law.

According to the Department of Labor, a more than 5% of the labor supply is “undocumented”. It does not take a rocket scientist or great statistician to figure out that if we were to enforce our laws pertaining to the arrival and departure or foreigners, both legal and illegal, and those that pertain to labor and wages, unemployment would go down and wages would go up. That is not what the small group that holds sway over our politicos would want as they might lose the reins of the country and we might end up with a more egalitarian economic situation while remaining a capitalist system. Just one that puts the well being of our citizens over that of foreign and domestic capital speculators.

The SPLC, ACLU, La Raza and other such groups are nothing more than seditious, anti-America groups, some with strong Communist ties who for decades have tried to stop law-and-order Americans and police and sheriff’s deputies from doing their jobs protecting the public. The sick thing is…some of these groups are being backed by taxpayer money…

The SPLC is a fabulously successful money-making organization that puts idealistic camouflage on corporate greed.

Big business just looooves a continuous flow of cheap, exploitable labor it can turn to when native-born workers complain about low wages and benefits.

And Creative Loafing calls itself “progressive.” Heck, I’m so old, I remember when leftists actually sided with the workers.

‘Tis true. They’re sitting on a pile of dough worth $168 million. Shades of Scrooge McDuck!
