STOP Jim Gilchrist from winning the Congressional District of Orange County!

The Human Rights Coalition of California urges the people of Los Angeles County to contact fellow Orange Country friends, relatives, and co-workers to STOP JIM GILCHRIST

The Human Rights Coalition of California urges the people of Los Angeles County to contact fellow Orange Country friends, relatives, and co-workers to ensure that Minuteman Project founder Jim Gilchrist is NOT elected in to U.S. Congress for the 43rd Congressional District ( Orange County). Gilchrist has used the media attention he has recieved from the foundation of the racist and vigilante group: The Minuteman Project. The presence of this organization perpetuates racism and hostility towards the Hispanic population in America. Gilchrist has placed the lives of many people in jeopardy and will stop at nothing to create the illusion of a Hispanic "invasion." He has called immigrants from the south, incapable of assimilating into the "typical American." The TYPICAL AMERICAN? This mentality is anything but patriotic and his radical ideology creates organized hatred which becomes assertive hatred in action against ALL Hispanics. Let us put an end to this hatred and organize. We despreately call upon you, the reader of this article to do what you must to secure the human dignity of the Hispanic population and the disease of racism which, as evident, stops at no border.

MINUTEMEN, BORDER WALLS, & FAILED FEDERAL PROJECTS A TRILLION DOLLARS AGO ...

MINUTEMEN, BORDER WALLS, & FAILED FEDERAL PROJECTS A TRILLION DOLLARS AGO ... by Glenn Disney - P.O. Box 958171 - Hoffman Estates, Illinois - 60195-8171 Tel: 608-213-8448 In light of illegal immigrant solidarity, a new national anthem, and two southwest governors declaring 'states of emergencies,' months ago, a plea for more federal money is the solution by those wanting a cut of it. Congressman wanna-be Jim Gilchrist and others drawn to the big-government, big-money magnet, campaigning for a triple wall costing billions, are setting this nation up for the proverbial straw to break our economic backs. The recently floated idea of building a border wall with private funds is token; a publicity hoot to gain public support and keep the concept alive until Congress cough's up the real money which Minutemen leaders Jim Gilchrist and Chris Simcox count upon. Already, plans on the south side of the U.S. border are being drawn up to counter the exorbiant 'Great Wall' of the U.S.. Expect multiple explosions against the wall spaced miles apart in one night even while under construction. Expect more elaborate tunnels to join the two countries. Expect the black transport market, headed by sophisticated contrabandistas de la gente and coyotes, to circumvent the "Great Wall" and prosper the same way drug cartels have thrived in the midst of our crack (no pun intended) federal war on drugs campaign, begun a trillion dollars ago.We'll spend hundreds of millions repairing the wall before it's even completed! And before we get spellbound on the advice of so-called experts affirming that such a wall will work, lets find one single soul with experience building and maintaining 2000 or 700 miles of a wall like the one proposed. Face it, the Gran pared de los Estados Unidos will not stop illegal immigration from Mexico or anywhere else. The only thing that such a fantasy will produce is time for Gilchrist and other politicians to ride the contrived political platform to election. The Mexican illegal immigration problem won't be solved by deducting more money from your gross income to pay for another failed federal project. But what do they care? It's your money. Their wallets will be bulging with cash from the windfall of such a long-term federal project right on into their stately retirement. Politicians realize that stirring the public's emotions with patriotic jingoism shakes a lot of money out of pockets, a necessary thing to keep the government pork payroll and the Minutemen alive. Certainly, the Minutemen have their core followers who sincerely believe that they're protecting the U.S., but they're really puppets for making the politicians of the organization, rich. It's time for U.S. voters to get wise to lucrative tactics of politicians. The Mexican illegal immigration problem is deeper than the tossing billions toward it will solve. The solution involves a certain humility on our part going back to the 1800's, a story for another time but with the same relevancy of restitution that we gave Japanese ancestry for internment and other injustices. We've acknowledged similar restitutions to other ancestries for civil rights hardships. Arguably, Affirmative Action is a continuation of the same sentiment, including even more peoples. But, unlike these guilt-ridding actions atoned for in dollars, the U.S.-Mexican problem poses a different scenario requiring a different remedy. The U.S. Mexican War was a blatantly manipulated war of aggression to the extent that we quickly paid the capitulated 15 million for California and New Mexico and acquired vast territories, later to become states. "We take nothing by conquest" was our pompous conclusion. The facts are voluminous supporting the case that the U.S., marauding on the 1800's spirit of 'Manifest Destiny', essentially stole several states from a newly independent Mexico. Even Ulysses S. Grant called it "the most unjust war ever undertaken by a stronger nation against a weaker one." And therein lies the dirty secret that schoolhouse history books omit. Mexico really never recovered economically or politically, experimenting with revolutions and monarchies thereafter. And so, standing proudly as Americans, thinking that we owe them nothing, is to stand on backs. To think that the average, uneducated border-crosser is ignorant of his Mexican history, is to be ignorant. The stories of Miguel Hidalgo to Antonio López de Santa Anna are written on their hearts and in their version. The Treaty of Guadalupe Hildago in February 1848, was not the end of the US-Mexican War, and until we finally address that historical fact, we'll continue to suffer as a nation, and wonder why? True commerce with Mexico is the only solid beginning in creating incentive for Mexicans to work in Mexico. Open trade, not 'name-only' NAFTA, but the really deregulated kind, is like a restaurant of sorts, conducive to peaceful mingling and common interests in an otherwise myriad of conflicting opinion and culture. Illegal immigration's solution, to the dismay of labyrinth-law making politicians, is simple. Open the border both ways with minimal restrictions and see commerce explode providing more jobs than people to fill them. In other words governments, get out of our way and let business' natural course solve the problems with immigration and labor simultaneously. Mexico will undoubtedly favor the concept. Then, Uncle Sam, rally your experts and organize your resources in accomodating the resultant economic boom on both sides of the river. "But what about sovereignty and patriotism?" some will whine. Is it not patriotic to replace bureaucratically created problems with working solutions? And is not sovereignty better served when people trade with one another free from government-sanctioned tax and regulation racketeering? Beware of so-called Minutemen with no historical or even ideological connection with the original 18 Minutemen of Natick, nameless to this day. Beware of the flag-waving patriot-politician! He may be closer to Benito Mussolini that to Patrick Henry or Thomas Paine. by Glenn Disney - Tel: 608-213-8448 commonwrites@gmail.com
