Special Alert!

Baldwin on Border Security and Illegal Immigration

Please watch this brand new video statement by Constitution Party Presidential Nominee, Chuck Baldwin, on the critical issue of Border Security and Illegal Immigration and then forward it to everyone in America who is concerned about this crisis (and that should be everyone in America!) Chuck Baldwin is the ONLY candidate for President of these United States who means business about protecting our borders and stopping illegal immigration, but don't take my word for it....watch for yourself!

http://www.youtube.com/watch...


And then read, on the link below, why Chuck Baldwin is the ONLY candidate for President, of ANY political party, who deserves the votes of Americans who support patriotic immigration reform:

Illegal aliens are living in fear, eh? Good! I hope they're crapping in their pantalones 24 hours a day. Maybe the parasites will leave on their own before we catch up with them and pitch their scurvy behinds back over the fence.

Immigrants really don't live in fear.
Illegal aliens live in fear.
As well as they should.
Americans just aren't going to
take it any longer.
When they are deported to their countries
they won't have to fear any longer.

When the heck are they going to quit calling illegals "immigrants"? Who are they trying to fool?
I hope this latest raid put alot of fear in their criminal life--something needs to put the fear in them and remind them that they are here illegally and by most not welcome.

Good going ICE!

Immigration sting nets 905 arrests in California
Published: 5/23/08, 9:46 PM EDT

SAN DIEGO (AP)- U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement says agents have arrested more than 900 people in California on immigration violations during a three-week sting targeting people who ignored deportation orders.

The agency said Friday that 495 of the 905 people arrested were targeted in the operation. The other 410 just happened to be on the scene when agents arrived.

Northern California accounted for the most arrests, with 441. The Los Angeles area followed with 327 arrests. The San Diego area accounted for the other 137.

ICE agents increasingly have been tracking people who ignore deportation orders. When authorities visit a suspect's last known address and find other immigrants, they ask them to prove they are in the country legally.

Immigrants? The feds found that children as young as 13 years old were working at the plant and being paid five dollars an hour under the table. The feds also found an active methamphetamine lab inside the plant. Would you like a little Meth with your meat? There were reports of workers being beaten as well. These people are not immigrants, there labor; slave labor in many regards to the companies that pay to have them smuggled in and the cartels that profit off the threats of hurting family members. This is another one of those deceptive articles that fails to tell the real truth.

They are COWARDS, that is why they live in fear.

If they were brave, they would go home and improve their crap countries.

Then let's go a little further with the real truth. If they were not greedy, they would not pay as much as $8000 to be smuggled illegally into this country. That much money would feed their families for quite a while but they would rather spend it to come here and milk the system as they have been taught to do.
If it were not for greed, the employers would not be bringing in cheap labor, working young children, manufacturing meth, etc.
If it were not for greed, our government officials would not be pandering to the illegals for votes, or to lobbyist and big business for campaign contributions and would not keep trying to pass an amnesty to appease them.
If you want truth and you want to place blame, then there is plenty to go around. Blame the illegals for coming here, blame our government and theirs for their coming here, blame the employers for hiring them, blame our immigration enforcement for not doing their job, and blame the American people for turning a blind eye to what has been taking place in our country for so long.

Funny, they pay thousands and thousand of dollars to illegal alien human traffickers to steal them across our borders...but they claim to not be able to "afford" to become legalized...what a crock. If they entered illegally ...they need to go back voluntarily and start the process back in their home countries..this lawyer knows not what he's talking about.

These people SHOULD live in fear. Their sneaky ways may be fool proof in the third world, but not here.

Agreed -- they should be afraid because they are criminals. They should just go home and work on making their lives better there.

Well for all of you who dont wnat this "illegal" immigrants in this country i hope you all are getting you hand ready to go and grow and pick all of the vegetables and fruits from the farms you guys eat every day i hope you guys are all ready to work in plants like hormel,qpp,ibp, cutting meat and have to smell all of those disgunting things in there and then get pay the little possible because those are the things illegal immigrants have to do and go trough because no legal person from the united states are willing to do. you guys dont see what are the good things those people do for us you guys just see the "bad". i have never heard of any "illegal" immigrants killing so many people but look at the people who you guys are letting come into this country legally look who took the twin towers down he was not illegal ... if you guys see how hard these people work for us and their families they work about 12-16 hours daily 7 days and work like slaves just to give their families a better future but i guess that sound illegal to all of you guys. We live in the 21st century we all have to be a little more mature and start thinkng if they are doidn a bad thing or a GOOD thing for this contry stop the racism

Sorry guy less than 5 per cent are farm workers.
And guess what?We also still have migrant pickers
that travel this nation from Florida to California.
My own cousin In Oklahoma works at a packing plant.
Not everyone here has college or even a high school
diploma.They are Americans and deserve any scrape offered.Do not tell me the Mexicans are not working
jobs our people need.I do pity their lot in life but
this is MY country and the illegals are criminals.
Round them up and be done with it!! PS I'm tired of
playing hop scotch over the dirty disposable diapers every time I go shopping.

They can afford to do this!

Source: Inter-American Development Bank, March 2006 report,“Remittance 2005”. Mexico remains the largest recipient of remittances, at over US$20 billion, followed by Brazil and Columbia which for the first time reached over US$6 and US$4 billion respectively. Central America and the Dominican Republic combined to reach over US$11 billion; and the Andean countries totaled almost US$9 billion.

http://www.iadb.org/mif/v2/files/guemez_remit...

As much as 50% of remittances are unreported. As published in the Development Prospect Group Briefing #3, "This amount only reflects transfers through official channels. Econometric analysis suggests that unrecorded flows through informal channels may add 50 percent or more to recorded flows. Including these unrecorded flows, the true size of remittances, is larger than foreign direct investment flows and more than twice as large as official aid received by developing countries."
