I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think
Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally, made a huge
public
relations mistake with their recent demonstrations.
I don't blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the
United
States
of America, as it is a truly wonderful place. But when the first
thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal, it is flat
out
wrong and I don't care how many la-la land left heads come out of the
woodwork and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons.
I don't need sensitivity lessons, in fact I don't have anything
against Mexicans, I just have something against criminals and anybody
who
comes into this country illegally is a criminal and if you don't
believe it,
try coming into America from a foreign country without a passport and
see
how far you get.
What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it's tantamount
to
saying, "I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking
your
laws and there's nothing you can do about it."
It's an "in your face" action and speaking just for me I don't
like it
one little bit and if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in
Washington
bigger than English peas it wouldn't be happening.
Where are you, you bunch of lilly livered, pantywaist, forked
tongued,
sorry excuses for defenders of The Constitution ? Have you been
drinking the
water out of the Potomac again?
And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so
pork
laden and watered down that it won't mean anything anyway. Besides,
what
good is another law going to do when you won't enforce the ones on the
books
now?
And what ever happened to the polls guys? I thought you folks
were the
quintessential finger wetters. Well you sure ain't paying any attention
to
the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of
Americans
want something done about this mess, and mess it is, and getting bigger
everyday.
This is no longer a problem, it is a dilemma and headed for being
a
tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in France with the
Muslims
can't happen here when the businesses who hire these people finally run
out
of jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?
If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators, knuckle under on
this
and refuse to do something meaningful it means that you care nothing
for the
kind of country your children and grandchildren will inherit.
But I guess that doesn't matter as long as you get re-elected.
Shame on you.
One of the big problems in America today is that if you have the
nerve
to say anything derogatory about any group of people (except
Christians) you
are going to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a bigot
and
anything else they can think of to call you.
Well I've been pounded by the media before and I'm still rockin'
and
rollin' and when it comes to speaking the truth, I fear not. And the
truth
is that the gutless, gonadless, milksop politicians are just about to
sell
out the United States of America because they don't have the intestinal
fortitude to stand up to face reality.
And reality is that we would never allow any other group of
people to
have 12 million illegals in this country and turn around and say, "Oh
it's
ok, ya'll can stay here if you'll just allow us to slap your wrist."
And I know that some of you who read this column are saying "Well
what's
wrong with that?"
I'll tell you what's wrong with it. These people could be from
Mars as
far as we know. We don't know who they are, where they are or what
they're
up to and the way the Congress is going we're not going to.
Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We already subsidize
corporate agriculture as it is, must we subsidize their labor as well?
If these people were from Haiti, would we be so fast to turn a
blind
eye to them or if they were from Somalia or Afghanistan? I think not.
All the media shows us are pictures of hard working Hispanics who
have
crossed the border just to try to better their life. They don't show
you
pictures of the Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang who
came
across the same way the decent folks did. They don't tell you about the
living conditions of the Mexican illegals some fat cat hired to pick
his
crop.
I want to make two predictions.
No. 1: This situation is going to grow and fester until it erupts
in
violence on our streets while the wimps in Washington drag their toes
in the
dirt and try to figure how many tons of political hay they can make to
the
acre.
No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some kind of
weapon
of mass destruction and set it off in a major American city after which
there will be a backlash such as this country has never experienced and
the
Capitol building in Washington will probably tilt as Congressmen and
Senators rush to the other side of the issue.
I don't know about you but I would love to see just one major
politician stand up and say, "I don't care who I make mad and I don't
care
how many votes I lose, this is a desperate situation and I'm going to
lead
the fight to get it straightened out."
I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to America, but if you
don't
respect our immigration laws why should you respect any others. And by
the
way, this is America and our flag has stars and stripes. Please get
that
other one out of my face.
Pray for our troops
What do you think?
God Bless America

He pretty much hit that one right on the head.
I've never heard so much weak suck out of any group of politicians in my life as on this subject. They really need to grow some balls and enforce the laws, fine the employers of the illegals, etc etc etc.
Charlie Daniels is my hero!
f in a
true true
Amen.
Thumbs up...think I'll go buy one of his albums!
Well thought out. No bashing anybody, just stating opinions about the WHOLE GROUP. Good for him. Its nice to see someone beside those "Hollywood" a--holes voice there political opinions everywhere and tell you what too think. And why this country suck and our troops are killers. Go FUK YOURSELF. i do applaud the ones who actually talk shit and then move to France. Good hit the bricks Johnny Depp and all the others...
The Devil has left the building.
I agree w/ Mr. Daniels. Just one thing I think was wrong was that I've seen a few politicians stand up and say that they are in no way for amnesty or anything else. The problem seems tro be that the news doesn't want to put these folks on TV, or burries them so far into the story, we are no longer watching or paying attention b/c the lead into this story is always the liberals who want to pitty our poor worker. Well, let him work just as hard on becoming a citizen, and we wouldn't have this proble. Don't let these illegals "cut" in line ahead of everyone else that has been patiently waiting their citizenship. What does that say to them, we care more about these folks who break the law than we do about you who have already broken our law. Thank you Charlie Daniels for having the testinal fortitude to stand up for what we believe in. CD for President...

Good to hear someone from the Hollywood crowd agrees with us and has the guts to say what he said.
