HISPANIC LEADERS SPEAK OUT! -- READ WHAT THEY ARE SAYING:
By Doug Edelman (04/24/06)
The California Coalition for Immigration Reform has compiled some interesting quotes from the open-borders crowd. See if you find these statements consistent with the image of the "hard working honest 'undocumented citizens' coming to the US to escape poverty and make a living" that their PR machine would have us believe.
"Go back to Boston! Go back to Plymouth Rock, Pilgrims! Get out! We are the future. You are old and tired. Go on. We have beaten you. Leave like beaten rats. You old white people. It is your duty to die… Through love of having children, we are going to take over.
- Augustin Cebada, Brown Berets
"They're afraid we're going to take over the governmental institutions and other institutions. They're right. We will take them over . . . We are here to stay."
- Richard Alatorre, Los Angeles City Council
"The American Southwest seems to be slowly returning to the jurisdiction of Mexico without firing a single shot."
-Excelsior, the national newspaper of Mexico
"We have an aging white America. They are not making babies. They are dying. The explosion
is in our population. I love it. They are sh**ing in their pants with fear. I love it."
- Professor Jose Angel Gutierrez, University of Texas
"Remember 187--proposition to deny taxpayer funds for services to non-citizens--was the last gasp of white America in California.
- Art Torres, Chairman of the California Democratic Party
"We are politicizing every single one of these new citizens that are becoming citizens of this country. I gotta tell you that a lot of people are saying I'm going to go out there and vote because I want to pay them back."
- Gloria Molina, Los Angeles County Supervisor
"California is going to be a Hispanic state. Anyone who doesn't like it should leave."
- Mario Obledo, California Coalition of Hispanic Organizations (and California State Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under former CA Governor Jerry Brown. Also awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Bill Clinton)
"We are practicing 'La Reconquista' in California." [Reconquista = reconquest]
- Jose Pescador Osuna, Mexican Consul General
"We need to avoid a white backlash by using codes understood by Latinos…"
- Professor Fernando Guerra, Loyola Marymount University
Are these just the words of a few extremists? No, unfortunately these are "mainstream" political and media and educational leaders. This is not the rhetoric of refugees from poverty. This is the voice of culture war.
Our porous borders present a threat to the security, the economy and now to the very fabric and nature of our sovereign nation.
Not only does an insecure border present the open door to the plotters of nefarious terrorist actions, it is the avenue of a real movement to "re-conquer" the American southwest as "Aztlan"; a de facto Hispanic province of Mexico.
It is the pipeline through which Mexico exports its poverty and crime problems. It also produces the "giant sucking sound" of our economy being drained as our dollars are exported. Our illegal immigrant population is the channel through which Mexico obtains its 2nd largest source of revenue after oil.
Whatever else politicians do about the illegal immigration issue – securing the borders and stopping the flow MUST be the first step.
