A BRIEF HISTORY OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

THE FIRST WAVE

THERE WERE NATIVE PEOPLE LIVING HERE.
THREE SHIPS FULL OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS CAME AND RENAMED THE NATIVES.
THEY CALLED THEM INDIANS.

THE SECOND WAVE

MORE, ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS FROM NORTHERN EUROPE CAME AROUND 1620. THEY LIKED WHAT THEY SAW.
AFTER HAVING AN HISTORIC FEAST WITH THE INDIANS, THEY TOOK THEIR LANDS.
THE INDIANS WHO RESISTED WERE CONSIDERED TERRORISTS AND WERE KILLED.

THE THIRD WAVE

STARTING IN 1680 MORE ILLEGALS CAME TO THE “NEW WORLD.”
WELL, THEY DIDN’T EXACTLY COME. THEY WERE CAPTURED IN AFRICA AND FORCED TO COME SO THEY COULD DO THE HARD WORK THAT THE SECOND WAVE PEOPLE DIDN’T WANT TO DO.

IT WAS GETTING CROWDED.


THE ILLEGALS STARTED A WESTERN EXPANSION MOVEMENT BECAUSE THEY WANTED MORE LAND.
IN 1830, THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS PASSED A LAW
CALLED “THE INDIAN REMOVAL ACT.”
IT REMOVED INDIANS.

THE ILLEGALS STILL NEEDED MORE LAND.
THEY WANTED TEXAS WHICH WAS OWNED BY MEXICO.
MEXICO RESISTED.
A WAR WAS FOUGHT.
MEXICO LOST TEXAS AND OTHER LAND TOO.

THE FOURTH WAVE

ILLEGALS FROM WHAT IS LEFT OF MEXICO CAME.
THE DESCENDANTS OF THE FIRST THREE WAVES WANT THE LAST WAVE TO LEAVE.

Great perspective! Just a personal note along the same lines. I grew up in the Bronx. My family purchased a small summer place in Miller Place (eventually became the permanent homestead). My mother loved the fact that she got out of the city. However, until the day she died, she decried the "damned city people" who came out to Suffolk and "ruined the country." Human nature doesn't change. Everyone perceives his/her presence as a gift. Everyone coming after is an interloper

YES...THE VOTE TO ACTIVATE THE DRAWBRIDGE OCCURS AFTER 'WE' REACH THE PROMISED LAND.

What goes around, comes around. In 2050 when the current illegals and the millions yet to come,are citizens and the majority, we will have a Latino President and a Latino congress and they will enact a law giving California and Texas and any other territories that were taken back to Mexico.

GREAT PLOT!
2050...PUT THE LATINOS IN CHARGE!
THEN WE CAN BLAME THEM FOR GLOBAL WARMING, PETROLEUM RATIONING, NATIONAL UBER-DEBT, NOT FINDING BIN LADEN, AND THE CONTINUING WAR IN IRAQ.

quicksand:
You certainly have a way of turning a phrase-"uber debt." I love it! That is the phrase, not the reality.
We are spending 330 million dollars each day in Iraq. We are have more than a 7 trillion dollar national debt. The dollar has hit an all time low in world currency. Yet, we don't here much about this in the national debate. We do, however, hear about whether or not Obama is wearing his lapel pin.

I WANT OBAMA TO WEAR TWO AMERICAN FLAG LAPEL PINS. I WANT HIM TO GO ON 'MEET THE PRESS' AND SAY,
" WHY DOES PRESIDENT BUCH WEAR ONLY ONE FLAG PIN? DOESN'T HE LOVE THIS COUNTRY?"

BUAH WILL HAVE TO EXPLAIN.

Dude,
Didn't they ever teach you about MANIFEST DESTINY in JHS, HS, or College? It is our destiny (God said so) to manage all the land from sea to shining sea and not "fes" up who had to be raped, killed, pillaged, coerced or just plain bald faced lied to, to get it. Get it?

To paraphase the late great Woody Guthrie, "This land was your land, now this is our land, From Californicateland to the New York Eyeland. From the red wood forest to the gulf stream waters, this land was made for you and me. This land was made to keep it free. This land was made to keep the illegals out. We decide who is illegal but yet we have to push one to speak English."

What a country!
