Immigrants are Celebrating
Posted by oblivion under Blogroll, Immigration, Politics, Uncategorized
There are two immigrant newspapers given out free in the neighborhood in NYC where I work. One is called U.S. Immigration News. The other is called African Abroad USA. In February issues both had long optimistic articles stating that the Democratic congress has given illegal immigrants hope for general amnesty that will be passed this year. Another issue of U.S. Immigration News tells immigrants that amnesty is coming soon, hang loose, don’t get divorced, don’t get in trouble. Now I don’t want to dash the hopes of poor unfortunate illegal aliens, but their presence is jeopardizing my children’s future. They are competing for the same jobs. They are renting the same apartments and sending rental and real estate prices skyrocketing, not to mention the devastating impact overpopulation has on our environment. The population was too large before the immigrants came. And our government is doing almost nothing to prevent this devastation.
We have to do something to get our government to take action. It seems like almost all the decisions our government is making are destroying our country. They sent us to war in Iraq to attack the enemy that got away in Afghanistan. Why did they stop trying to get Osama Bin Laden? Now they do nothing about illegal immigration except propose amnesty. When are they going to protect Americans?
Our government responds to the people and government of Mexico in deciding how to treat illegal aliens. Why is the government representing them and not Americans?
Why is our government giving any voice to illegal aliens who don’t vote and denying representation to Americans who do?
do?
