I'm not personally familiar with Murietta, but according to the Fount of All Internet Knowledge, the population is about 100K, of which 25% is Hispanic. A bullshit event like this (provoked, as it was, by the mayor) is the kind of thing that can sometimes catalyze a practical change in the local political balance. Be interesting to see.

I believe that this is what you were looking for: #9835; from Dirty Boulevard, by Mr. Lou Reed... <blockquote><i>Give me your hungry, your tired your poor I'll piss on 'em that's what the Statue of Bigotry says Your poor huddled masses, let's club 'em to death and get it over with and just dump 'em on the boulevard </i></blockquote>

Florida will take him but only if you send him to the Little Havana area of Miami. Buena suerte, Senor Ramos.

By and large, Hispanic families have been in America for about 25,000 years.

Fifteen years ago those same people were screaming that Elian Gonzalez should <i>not</i> be sent back to Cuba and his father.

That's because the children are fleeing <i>right-wing</i> regimes in Central America. They can only blame the refugees in this case.

For the last ten years these people have been screaming at the dirty Muslins in neighboring countries how it was their responsibility to deal with all the Iraqi refugees we created. Considering the degree to which our foreign policy in Central America helped cause the chaos these people are fleeing from, those Real Muricans™ have got a lot of fucking balls complaining now that it's their turn.

Same question as always: There's 11 million undocumented persons (at minimum) in the U.S. How, exactly, do you propose to get rid of them? Remember, if your answer involves more police or more ICE agents, your taxes will go up.
