The Real Number of Illegal Aliens

The number of undocumented aliens in the country is not as many as all those "hide-the-women-and-children", "don't shoot till you see the whites of their eyes" fear mongers claim it is.

It's not 20 million. Not 12 to 13 million.

Here's the truth and the real number:

298,000,000 illegal aliens!

Yup, that's the real number.
And why so high, you ask?

It's the number left over after you subtract the native American, Hawaiian and Eskimo populations from the census figures.

The truth is simple: what laws did the European-descended Americans break?

I cut a break for African-Americans because their ancestors were brought here as slaves and thus against their will.

If it weren't so serious, I'd have to laugh.

Here we have the anti-immigrant forces crying about people breaking the laws when their European ancestors had little or no regard for any treaty they signed with the Indians (i.e., native Americans).

When did the native Americans give permission for Europeans to steal their land?
Or kill the buffalo herds in massive numbers and destroy their environment?

Or how about the massacre of hundreds of thousands of native Americans?

It's funny how the conservatives cry about obedience to the law when their forefathers had no regard for the people they practically pushed off the continent. And only when they won the continent - they have a museum in St Louis called the "Museum of Western Expansion" - did they ever care to make - and had - reservations about making these reservations for the people they displaced.

Yes, what a lie - Western Expansion! Let's call it what it really was: empire building. This is a classic Orwellian double-speak.

Now that others - Spanish-speaking people and others - are doing the same to them, suddenly, they demand that these others follow laws that European ancestors never had any intentions of complying with. What a bunch of hypocrites!

Point is simple: immigration reform and related laws have no moral justification for their existence. And when you lose the moral high ground, you lose.

That's why you get what you're getting.

God never had any immigration policy. I didn't see anywhere in the Bible where it says that North America is reserved for white, European people. And with an estimated 12 to 20 million so-called illegals", America and North America is getting what it deserves.

God must have a sense of humor. HE certainly has a sense of justice.

That's what we're seeing here - slowly but surely.

So let's dissect this latest - stupid piece of legislation about immigration.

The conservatives - once who had some semblance of belief in a free America - are so anal about this bill - calling it "amnesty".

What a crock.

Provisions: pay fines and $5000 - who among these poor people have THAT kind of money to be able to pay and stay?

Another: go back to your country and wait - maybe 5 to 8 years? Who's going to be patient enough? The bill's crafters knew this and put it, hoping that much of the problem would go away. In this emotional environment, even this wasn't good enough to merely "nudge-and-wink" away.

Let's call these two provisions what they really are: deportation by stealth!

They say that immigration law is a mess. Yes, it should be abolished altogether. It's immoral and unjust and the reason they are being broken is that it has no moral justification whatsoever.

Some people will call my stance unreasonable and let's be realistic. OK - by that they mean that these laws are enforced by brute force. We're right because we can beat you up.

Yup, that's very moral high ground, I tell ya.

It's as moral high ground as massacring the native population and stealing their land.

The historical apologists will point to treaties and say the "injuns" signed them. Only one problem: it's the very legal term employed in English common law that European descent Americans employ: duress - agreement under force.

Let's see what else passes for discourse in this immigration reform:

Consrvatives want Gestapo-like checkpoints, national ID cards AND a wall to keep people out. Yes - all in the name of freedom! Where do I sign up?

And those minutemen patrolling the border: citizens misguided by warped notions. Beware, boys, that you take matters into your own hands. God doesn't like people who have only a pretense of justice.

The same people who like to crow about a free America - the conservatives - are the biggest fascists of them all - and they don't realize just stupidly downhill they've gone.

Suddenly, the same ones who were against Big Government are all for it when it suits their purpose. And when I've pointed this out - and other points I've made here - they can't answer me. They can't and won't - because they know they're in the wrong.

And that wall - some 700 miles long. Now how long is the border?

With Mexico - some 2,500 miles long.
With Canada - some 4,000 miles, and not including the one with Alaska.

Yea, that'll work fine!

The illegal immigrants of European ancestors are making laws against others to keep them out while they broke every law they preach to others to follow.

Yessirree! the truth comes out now:

298 million illegal aliens!
