>>This letter sent to Senator Frist from a retired border patrol agent has
>>more common sense than all the bull being spewed from the Senate, with the
>>exception of a few sensible representatives.
>>
>>Dear Senator Frist:
>>
>>There is a huge amount of propaganda and myths circulating about illegal
>>aliens, particularly illegal Mexican, Salvadorian, Guatemalan and Honduran
>>aliens.
>>
>>1. Illegal aliens generally do NOT want U.S. citizenship. Americans are
>>very vain thinking that everybody in the world wants to be a U.S. citizen.
>>Mexicans, and other nationalities want to remain citizens of their home
>>countries while obtaining the benefits offered by the United States such
>>as employment, medical care, in-state tuition, government subsidized
>>housing and free education for their offspring. Their main attraction is
>>employment and their loyalty usually remains at home. They want benefits
>>earned and subsidized by middle class Americans. What illegal aliens want
>>are benefits of American residence without paying the price.
>>
>>2. There are no jobs that Americans won't do. Illegal aliens are doing
>>jobs that Americans can't take and still support their families. Illegal
>>aliens take low wage jobs, live dozens in a single residence home, share
>>expenses and send money to their home country. There are no jobs that
>>Americans won't do for a decent wage.
>>
>>3. Every person who illegally entered this nation left a home. They are
>>NOT homeless and they are NOT Americans. Some left jobs in their home
>>countries. They come to send money to their real home as evidenced by the
>>more than 20 billion dollars sent out of the country each year by illegal
>>aliens. These illegal aliens knowingly and willfully entered this nation
>>in violation of the law and therefore assumed the risk of detection and
>>deportation. Those who brought their alien children assumed the
>>responsibility and risk on behalf of their children.
>>
>>4. Illegal aliens are NOT critical to the economy. Illegal aliens
>>constitute less than 5% of the workforce. However, they reduce wages and
>>benefits for lawful U.S. residents.
>>
>>5. This is NOT an immigrant nation. There are 280 million native born
>>Americans. While it is true that this nation was settled and founded by
>>immigrants (legal immigrants), it is also true that there is not a nation
>>on this planet that was not settled by immigrants at one time or another.
>>
>>6. The United States is welcoming to legal immigrants. Illegal aliens are
>>not immigrants by definition. The U.S. accepts more lawful immigrants
>>every year than the rest of the world combined.
>>
>>7. There is no such thing as the "Hispanic vote". Hispanics are white,
>>brown, black and every shade in between. Hispanics are Republicans,
>>Democrats, Anarchists, Communists, Marxists and Independents. The
>>so-called "Hispanic vote" is a myth. Pandering to illegal aliens to get
>>the Hispanic vote is a dead end.
>>
>>8. Mexico is NOT a friend of the United States. Since 1848 Mexicans have
>>resented the United States. During World War I Mexico allowed German Spies
>>to operate freely in Mexico to spy on the U.S. During World War II Mexico
>>allowed the Axis powers to spy on the U.S. from Mexico. During the Cold
>>War Mexico allowed spies hostile to the U.S. to operate freely. The attack
>>on the Twin Towers in 2001 was cheered and applauded all across Mexico.
>>Today Mexican school children are taught that the U.S. stole California,
>>Arizona, new Mexico and Texas. If you don't believe it, check out some
>>Mexican textbooks written for their schoolchildren.
>>
>>9. Although some illegal aliens enter this country for a better life,
>>there are 6 billion people on this planet. At least 1 billion of those
>>live on less than one dollar a day. If wanting a better life is a valid
>>excuse to break the law and sneak into America, then let's allow those one
>>billion to come to America and we'll turn the USA into a Third World
>>nation overnight. Besides, there are 280 million native born Americans who
>>want a better life. I'll bet Bill Gates and Donald Trump want a better
>>life. When will the USA lifeboat be full? Since when is wanting a better
>>life a good reason to trash another nation?
>>
>>10. There is a labor shortage in this country. This is a lie. There are
>>hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of American housewives, senior
>>citizens, students, unemployed and underemployed who would gladly take
>>jobs at a decent wage.
>>
>>11. It is racist to want secure borders. What is racist about wanting
>>secure borders and a secure America? What is racist about not wanting
>>people to sneak into America and steal benefits we have set aside for
>>legal aliens, senior citizens, children and other legal residents? What is
>>it about race that entitles people to violate our laws, steal identities,
>>and take the American Dream without paying the price?
>>
>>For about four decades American politicians have refused to secure our
>>borders and look after the welfare of middle class Americans. These
>>politicians have been of both parties. A huge debt to American society has
>>resulted. This debt will be satisfied and the interest will be high. There
>>has already been riots in the streets by illegal aliens and their
>>supporters. There will be more. You, as a politician, have a choice to
>>offend the illegal aliens who have stolen into this country and demanded
>>the rights afforded to U.S. citizens or to offend those of us who are
>>stakeholders in this country. The interest will be steep either way. There
>>will be civil unrest. There will be a reckoning. Do you have the courage
>>to do what is right for America? Or, will you bow to the wants and needs
>>of those who don't even have the right to remain here?
>>
>>There will be a reckoning. It will come in November of this year, again in
>>2008 and yet again in 2010.
>>
>>We will not allow America to be stolen by third world agitators and
>>thieves.
