Burning Atlanta

What part of "GET OUT" do they not understand? WHY do they feel entitled to be here and should be untouchable? Is there a safe haven for burglars and drug dealers in this country?

Guess what? If you, as a citizen, don't pay your speeding tickets you are subject to arrest and, in some jurisdictions, they will send deputies out to pick your ass up at home. But illegals have a whining fit seeing the laws enforced and think the laws shouldn't apply to them?

Don't live if fear...LEAVE!!!

Tensions created by Prince William County's crackdown on illegal immigration were on awkward display this week, when a community meeting hosted by police and the Mexican consulate produced new frustrations among immigrants -- and among the county's top officials. Much of the article focuses on complaints that the police chief and the Mexican consulate shouldn't or weren't supposed to have a public meeting. Yawn.  I understand it but I'm not going to get too bent out of shape in this instance.

Again and again during the two-hour session, the crowd pressed Deane for yes-or-no answers as to whether their immigration status would be checked if they were in a car accident but not at fault, or as the passenger of another driver. But Deane did not offer guarantees, explaining that most cases would be subject to individual officers' discretion. When the crowd heard that a suspect's inability to speak English well would be a factor, a groan went up. Too damned bad. Dear Gate-crashers, You are subject to arrest and deportation at any time.

"I think people are even more confused," said Rafael Garrido, 38, a Mexican immigrant who has lived in Woodbridge for 10 years. After listening to the nuances of Deane's explanation of "probable cause," he boiled it down to this dire formula: "If we get pulled over, we're going to be deported." GOOD!!! You asses should be deported. Who the hell told you that you were immune from prosecution?
