Going After Kids

One of the more disturbing issues in the immigration debate is its impact on children, including American citizens in immigrant families. NCLR and the Urban Institute published a report last fall on the subject, which documents that alarming numbers of children have been separated from their parents in immigration workplace raids. The Nickelodeon network, to its credit, took a look at what happens to these children when they're "deported" with their families, and when they're left behind when parents are deported.

Check out the comments that have appeared on the ALIPAC (Americans for Legal Immigration) website - which claims it is merely concerned about legality - in response to the Nick News feature on this issue:
"Did you know that the illegals have carved out their own hallways in the public schools? My daughter said that she feels uncomfortable when she has to use the hall to get from class to class. Legal American's are being terrorized by the illegals who are multiplying like rabbits."

"As much as it's going to irk me to watch this garbage I'm also going to be keeping a list of those advertising during the course of the show. If the companies expecting our kids to buy their products think they will walk away without hearing from my kids about their complicity with a racist hate group like LaRaza in promoting illegal activity.....and detrimental child welfare issues pertaining to the exploitation of anchors by self serving parents.....they can just think again."

"I have observed this sort of behavior too. The 'latinas' (I refuse to call them young women) are as bad as the gangbanger guys. They will stand there and glare at white, african-american or asian young women (basically anybody who is not hispanic) like they have some real bone to pick with them. They have a real chip on their shoulder and are looking for a fight. Except that they are so cowardly that neither they nor their male counter parts will fight anyone unless the odds are at least 10-1 in their favor. It disgusts me beyond words to think that I am forced to oick up the bill for these losers via my tax dollars. God help them if one of them ever so much as touches one of my daughters!"

Good thing the voices of hate haven't hijacked the immigration debate, right?

The no save act

Oppose HR 4088, “The Secure America Through Verification and Enforcement Act of 2007” Bill, known as the SAVE Act. The SAVE Act is a cynical and politically motivated attack on immigrant families and a foolish burden on our fragile economy. It would require approximately six million employers to verify the work status of more than 130 million workers within four years. If passed, the SAVE Act would place a tremendous financial and regulatory burden on businesses and employees at a time when our economy is already fragile. This is a foolish proposal at a time when our economy is already fragile. The federal database that would be used to enforce the SAVE Act is known to have an unacceptably high error rate – nearly 10 percent! An independent study of the E-Verify/Basic Pilot program found that the ½ of 1 percent of employers that use the program often misuse it, and that the data base would need to be significantly improved before it can be expanded. ...

The Committee claimed that the omissions occurred because of difficulties with reporting software and explained that the problem was corrected.

Some Inspiration

If you want to make changes in the world, you're going to have to be there day after day doing the boring, straightforward work of getting people interested in an issue, building a slightly bigger organization, carrying out the next move, experiencing frustration, and finally getting somewhere, that's how the world changes -  Noam Chomsky I stayed up last night reading  Imperial Ambitions  by Noam Chomsky and I came across that line, and even though he was talking about the anti-war movement , I think this appeals to the immigration movement, the Dream Act movement or any kind of movement that wants to succeed.
