Dear Brothers & Sisters:
We the slave descendants who have been in bondage in America for 453 years are planning to return to our original homeland in the near future. We have been working for years inside the international legal arena to establish our Human Rights and secure Reparations for all 250 million Afrodescendants in the western hemisphere. In order to learn more about the Reparations Movement please read each and every issue of Muhammad Speaks newspaper published by the Lost-Found Nation of Islam under the leadership of the Honorable Silis Muhammad. When the Lost Sheep return home we plan to help the entire continent elevate itself. We need each other to truly succeed.
Peace,
Malik Al-Arkam
Detroit, MIchigan

El escándalo en torno al agotamiento de nuestras reservas no lo provoca su rol decisivo en nuestra economía, que no existe, sino las presiones y necesidades de los poderosos que nos compran el crudo. Y en contrapartida, ahí están los cientos de miles de mexicanos cazados como bestias feroces en la frontera yanqui; usados descaradamente como “tema electoral” por los aspirantes a la presidencia de EE.UU.; tratando de enternecer a los perros de presa que los persiguen y deportan exhibiendo su dolor humano por la separación de sus hijos y repitiendo, hasta el hartazgo, que no los deben echar porque son necesarios para la prosperidad y bienestar del blanco anglosajón, es decir, suplicando al poderoso que les permita servirlo cuando debería ser al revés. Esta vergonzosa situación podría revertirse de modo rápido y efectivo si disminuyera la oferta de brazos mexicanos; si México se pusiera en serio a producir a base de un uso racional y moderno de sus recursos naturales, el petróleo en primer lugar, en vez de estar disputando sobre si es inteligente o no darle una rebanada del pastel petrolero a la iniciativa privada. Por ese camino no lograremos otra cosa, evidentemente, que incrementar el desempleo, la pobreza y el desamparo de las masas populares, ya hoy mismo al borde del abismo de la desesperanza y del rencor social.

i was once a immigrant and i came here without permission. I am now legal but that has not change me at all. im proud to be mexican and i feel bad about the people that are illegal and i think that they should be given a chance to be here and have a life. not only are they suffering but many of them have families to support and people who are against them have no idea what is like to be here illegal. i believe that one day all the immigrants will soon have a to be here legally.

As I read these Posts I am just dumbfounded by the amount of hatred people of Latin American descent can have for one another. All Hispanics share much in common, most especially our language. I do not understand how some of you could post such sick nonsense about others who share your language and still concider yourselves God fearing persons. Do you not realize that you are generalizing a whole culture? Do you not understand that your bigoted attitude is exactly what great men like Dr. King gave their lives to rid this great country of? Why then do you perpetuate this racist mentality towards those who are of a lower economic status than you? You are hypocrites! Latinos come in all different shapes, colores and sizes. We are also all tied together through history. If you do consider yourself an American, then you should never use class, "smell", skin color, or language, to catagorize what a good person is, or should be. Remember, Americans come from all around the world, and smell or look all kinds of ways!
With that said, most Hispanics living here in the U.S. ( I say most because I can't generalize all) realize there has to be some sort of solution to solving Mexico's emmigration problem and our immigration problem. However, MOST of us believe that there has to be a better solution, and not just a better solution, but also a long lasting solution to these problems. Bickering about physical traits and cultural practices gets us no where. Doing so simply places us in a vicious cycle of hate and prejudice; and this is exactly what politicians like Dick Cheney want, because then they can make their corporate buddies richer.
Consider:
1.) The economy is in a recession, mostly caused by the Mortgage crisis and the bad lending practices of banks. Not because of Immigrants.
2.) Low Skilled Jobs are leaving this country because we are in a globalized economy (for those of still living in the 20th century as suppose to the 21st, this may come as a shock) where countries attempt to liberalize economic tariffs and have their corporations compete globally. As a result the U.S. job Market is quickly moving towards service sector jobs, ie. Intellectual Properties, Computer Software etc. What does this mean for our generation? Well it means a lot, but mainly it means GET YOUR COLLEGE DEGREE. All of you who were born here and competing with immigrants for jobs like Janitor, Construction worker, landscape, etc. are in a losing battle. Use the fact that your an American to demand that our Congress lower the price of public universities, raise the quality of primary and secondary education in your neighborhoods, Universalize Health Care, etc. Kicking every immigrant worker who works for less than minimum wage out at once will not guaruntee you the good future you desire. Health Care costs too much, gas cost too much, houses cost too much, Private education and college cost too much, etc.
3.) My friends, roofing, Cooking, Cutting the grass, Walking the Dog, Cleaning the Motel, Painting, etc. cannot and will not ever go to China. These jobs are here to stay forever because they can only be done by someone here in the U.S. It is silly to say that those type of Low Skilled labor jobs will be exported to China!!!
However, if there is no one to clean the motel 6 you sleep at for less than six dollars per hour, then your nightly rates will rise. The same goes for everything else.
However if you're complaint is that it is not fair that immigrants take these kinds of jobs because he or she is willing to work for less $ than you, lets consider the alternative.
You work for motel 6 as a cleaner, you demand that your pay be at least enough to sustain you. Let us just say that for this to occur you need to be paid at least $8.50 by the hour, well above minimum wage in most states. Well guess what, gas costs over $4 a gallon, good Health insurance is way over your price range, rent costs are going up, and that kind of job almost always has no union; so the moment you miss work or mouth off to a boss, your gone, because there are tens of thousands of other Americans who also want your job. Not only that, but all of us who do have a college education, and can afford to vacation, now have to pay more money for a room because the motel has to make up for the extra money they spend on having you work there for $8.50 per hr. In the long run we all end up back at square one.
4.) Stop getting all of your information from Lou Dobbs. He is not an expert, and he is not objective. Try reading about this subject from different sources and wathcing multiple media outlets. Expand your minds my friends!!!
So I say, why waist our time writing hate Posts? Articulate yourself respectfully and RATIONALLY. Let's talk about solutions, instead of arguing about who smells and such. Si SE Puede!!!!
Best wishes to all!!

-How can this,or any other, country afford to take in so many illegal immigrants who do not have even the most basic education to be successful in an advanced country like the USA? Yhey can come to COOK, CUT THE GRASS, WALK THE DOG, CLEAN THE MOTEL, DO ROOFING, PAINTING, ETC, but where will they be when more and more of the jobs in Ammerica are shipped to China and other undeveloped countries? Real legal Americans are having a hard time finding a job in this era. How are these illegal immigrants going to live in here. Calderon, Slim, Obrador, Televisa, Monsenor,,,,take them back to where they belong.

April 22, 2008 we have a court date, charge for car theft and category C felony. We plead not guilty. On Oct. 12 2007 I called the Sheriff Department for Abandoned Vehicle Report. For over three years my back yard neighbors had park 1976 Mirage Cadillac on my property on my property without my permission. By NV law this a misdemeanor. Officer Kantz listed in the report the Marge Ivy was the registered owner, and estimated value was $100, sun rot and rust. I sold it for $240. One or the reasons I sold it was intimidated and influence by Officer Kantz. My had decided to just move the car back on to their property, and I told Kantz this he yell at me, told me NO! DO WHAT EVER YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET RID OF THE CAR. Said many times, It's your responsibility to get rid of the car. I also saw on TV once that if someone leaves anything on your property that you could throw it away, keep it, give away or sell it. So sense I listen to the sheriff I don't everything should be laid at my doorstep, Officer Kantz should take some the blame. This wasn't the first time my neighbor left vehicle on my property without permission. That was the only reason I brought the property in 2004 from my son, because his renters and backyard neighbors was always fighting of this trailer he parked on his property. I think that the rented had an option to buy. She (renter) was so bad at the neighbors she lost her job at nearby casino, because she refuse to wait on Vergil Sr. (back yard neighbor). Sense she lost her job they were no longer could pay the rent and moved. Vergil Sr. die sometime in 2007, before he death I eveytime I would ask them to move the car, they would say okay, but never would. After his son Vergil Jr. took over, my son ask him about moving the car, he said that his intensions was to move more cars on the property. I think that he and his father was trying to establish an easement on my land. My last Public Defender Mr. Paul Yohey quit the case. My son got into such heated debate on my case, in the courtroom. It was getting too loud so they took it outside the courtroom. I didn't know that he had quit until the Judge told me. During that debate Yohey and son had, my son told me that he said that I was just some old women who didn't have any memory, that I wouldn't win in this hick town. When Yohey and I had our conversation, he wouldn't let my son come into his office, to hear what we were talking about. Confidential, just between him and I. So why would come to court that day and instead of talking to me, he gets into it with my son. The Judge gave another Public Defender Mr Kenneth V. Ward. I best he thinks the same thing about me having any chance of getting off. The Public Defenders in Lyon County only do what the District Attorney tell them to do specially when it's comes to Blacks. I had pride in my personal record, I pass a FBI probe while working for the Postal Service. To drive on the Airlines grounds for the Post Office. I worked 34yrs for the Postal Service, retired, handicap and live on a fixed income. I was writting the e-mail to ask what help and advice you or the Human Rights Nework could give me. In this town of Silver Springs NV, most times you can't get a hello from the neighbors. Just across the street my white neighbor has the yard sell. Get lots of sales, over the years I have had four yard sell, no even stop. String graffiti sprayed all over my car. My son get pull over the sheriff didn't like the way he came out of the driveway. This motorcycle driver, I call "Speedracer" go fying up and down the road all the time. The limit is 25, but he must be going 35 to 50 miles hr. In this isolated, the public transportation, not taxi service. No "chain" department stores, restaurants or fast food places. You mostly go to the corner market. When I go in I get funny looks and stares. When I start to the checkout, usually they close their counter. Gwyneth Paltrow made a movie 2003 (the same year I moved here) "View from the Top" the plot was that she had big dreams of leaving her poor town of Silver Springs NV to work as a stewardess for an Airlane. Maybe if I had seen this movie I wouldn't had come here. Only said all this show, some the atmosphere of racism I live with in Nevada.

I am not against Immigration! I am against Illegals entering this country for many reasons. 1. They can be exploited and blackmailed. 2. they are most like to resort to criminal behavior. 3. They drive up the costs (of medical insurance) and down the wages. Anyone who is in the business of hiring illegals don't have to abide by labor laws.
I do have one question....if Emma Lozano is so bold as to fight for the rights of illegal immigrants...why can't she go to Mexico and fight that government to make a better country for them so they don't have to resort to fleeing across borders??? I just don't get it?

I certainly hope that on May 1st, 2008 that I.C.E. will be out in force to check the "documentation" of all of those demanding rights & amnesty for those that do not belong here. Emma Lozano is a PIMP! Illegal Immigration is her WHORE, that she expolits on a daily basis.

Here is a quote from Emma Lozano: "We demand that you take responsibility and legalize the estimated 13 million undocumented...ah in this country."
Here is MY response to her demand: "We, the LEGAL citizens and residents of this country demand that the 13 million undocumented...ah in this country LEAVE this country."

Few Americans are against immigration, after all, most of us come from many generations of immigrants, LEGAL immigrants!
America welcomes immigrants from all walks of life, and immigrants are the back bone of America, without immigrants, we would not be a nation.
My grandfather came to Ellis Island in 1901 at age 16, alone and with ten dollars in his pocket. If he had not been so brave to take that step, I would not be here today. The same can be said for my other grandfather and two grandmothers.
My wifes family hails from Italy, they too came here legally and ALL helped build this nation.
But what they did, and millions more like him did, they came legally, waited their turn at a better life, they followed the law of the land, they learned English, they served our country both in uniform, and in the work force. They brought along with them many cultural blessings which every American benefits from.
The BIG difference today is millions of people, from all walks of life enter our country illegally, breaking the law of the land, breaking the laws of the Constitution and it just so happens the majority come from Mexico.
They use up benefits and funding designed for needy Americans, the elderly, children, veterans and the disabled.
I'd like to know why the immigrant's own home country will NOT take them back? Why are they fleeing in the first place?
Emma Lozano, Pueblo Sin Fronteras and all those DEMANDING amnesty, you make demands of our nation that you are not entited to make, Illegal immigration is just that, illegal.
I will continue to welcome immigration, but I will stand against illegal immigration! What makes you MORE ENTITLED TO RIGHTS AND CITIZENSHIP OVER AND ABOVE, AND BEFORE ALL THOSE WHO HAVE WAITED, AND ARE WITING THEIR TURNS?
How dear you make demands!
