- Something funny is going on with the Immigration issue.
-
- While hamhanded government minions have been oppressing
pregnant mothers and silver-haired grannies in airports, the Feds have
also simultaneously changed the US-Mexico border from a national barrier
into a welcome mat. Willfully, and completely against the tide of public
opinion, Uncle Sam has decided that there's no more need for the INS to
do anything about illegal immigration--with the possible exception of making
sure undocumented aliens get food and water and clean blankets to sleep
on while they are violating the laws of our land. Mexican truck drivers
are invited to visit and prowl our highways, and George W. Bush wants to
not only give illegal aliens amnesty, but Social Security benefits as well.
This is all occurring in the midst of an overpoliced, overregulated, increasingly
regimented United States society. The stampede of human traffic into the
US must not be impeded. And by the way, our empty, open borders represent
a recent change of political policy. The southern border was not this unguarded
under Clinton. Republican loyalists, blind as lemmings, do not realize
this, of course, as they do not realize many things.
-
- I recall a picturesque road trip my wife and I made to
California in 1997. We were repeatedly slowed, stopped, and politely harassed
all along the roads because we were driving through 'illegal alien country'.
We were stopped in New Mexico, we were stopped in Arizona, we were stopped
in California. We passed through road block checkpoints. We saw stealth
planes (yes, the black military kind) swooping over the border country
making surveillance runs. In roadside California, we saw Mexicans getting
busted by the border patrol, red lights flashing, and saw the poor souls
thrown up against a wall. It was all pretty intimidating to behold. There
was a great deal of border patrolling going on five or six years ago. Somehow,
since, it seems to have evaporated in the desert sun.
-
- Last summer, I not only drove all around border country
in West Texas without seeing any Federal badges, I actually set my feet
in the silt of the Rio Grande river. By silt, I mean that the river is
only five inches deep in many places. I tried to float a rental canoe down
the scenic Santa Elena canyon, and found it impossible due to the shallow
water, mud puddles, and rocks. In the trans-Pecos desert, the Rio Grande
is more of a creek bed than a river. The popular conception of the Rio
Grande as a wide body of water that requires a boat or courageous swimming
to cross is only appropriate in the deep washes near the Gulf of Mexico.
In West Texas, a four-year-old child could easily wade across the Rio Grande,
and in many places he could do so without getting his Underoos wet. The
river is only marginally a boundary because it makes a blue line on the
map.
-
- It is clear to anyone who is awake and alert that open
border policy is not only a departure from traditional policy--it marks
the implementation of a new agenda. What might that agendum be? It could
be many things. It could be an attempt by the centrist, "compassionate
conservative" GOP to establish some sort of political correctness.
It could be an overture to American Big Business, by bringing in cheap
slave labor to US companies that do not wish to move their operations overseas
to China. It could be the result of under-the-table dealings between our
Federal government and Mexico, of which the general public is uninformed.
It could be an attempt, on the part of Republicans, to create a minority
class "vote plantation" to counteract the Democrats' usage of
the Race Card.
-
- It could be a subtle combination of all these things,
but if the Bush Administration is doing it--in the midst of a "War
On Terror", no less--it is likely to be the implementation of a globalist,
neo-fascist scheme intended to undermine the Constitution. There is no
Presidential administration in history that has been more spook-ridden
with characters straight out of 'Dr. Strangelove' than the George W. Bush
administration. Bush is utterly subservient to the Rockefeller Wing of
American politics, takes orders from throwbacks to the Iran-Contra era,
and his servitude to their policies is transparently obvious.
-
- The reason the globalists must have continuous, non-stop
immigration, I believe, is guns. It's not about cheap labor---it's about
firearms. The New World Order has to take away all our guns in order to
dissolve US sovereignty and usher in a one world government, and I believe
many recent administrative actions of the Executive Branch have been shaped
toward that objective. The best ways to disarm the people are with (a)
massive increases of Federal police power, and (b) political subterfuge.
-
- The subterfuge includes altering the political landscape
by means of altering the makeup of the US population. In order to understand
the reason why this is needed, it's necessary to retell a little recent
political history.
-
- The post-Columbine rout of the gun control agenda drove
home to the tyrants the fact that the current majority of Americans will
not allow themselves to be disarmed. There is only so much that a docile,
ignorant population will swallow. Gun control foundered, after years of
relative success, essentially because word got out to the American people
that there was an anti-gun lobby. Many of the successes of gun control
groups in the past had been aided by a coddling, protective news media
that blasted the NRA while pretending that anti-gun counterpart organizations
did not exist. Because the NRA was the most powerful lobby in Washington
politics, the Press framed its disdain for the NRA in terms of "the
evil of lobbies". This naturally annoyed many citizens; it was a good
gimmick. When Columbine happened, however, the anti-gun lobbies came out
of the political closet and laid all their cards on the table. They thought
they had reached their historic Window of Opportunity. They whipped up
a media frenzy. They marched out Rosie O'Donnell on TV to call for abolition
of all firearms. They concocted a "Million Mom March" assembled
from various phony Leftist fringe elements..many of the so-called "moms"
were actually childless, lesbian feminists! Unfortunately for the gun grabbers,
the mask of the "evil of lobbies" issue fell away, and it began
to sink into most Americans' heads that there were a bunch of liberal activists
out there who wanted to take away their guns. In addition, the anti-gunners
faced a newly revitalized and Internet-savvy gun rights movement, made
up of dozens of stalwart Second Amendment activist groups--plus an exceedingly
powerful NRA, under the leadership of Charlton Heston. The pro-gunners
mopped up the floor with the anti-gun lobbyists. Talk radio hosts, universally
Republican, collectively spit in their eyes as well. The post-Columbine
gun frenzy died with a whimper, and gun control increasingly lost favor
with the public in poll after poll.
-
- Gun control has remained in that miserable state ever
since--even during the recent "DC Sniper" murder spree, the anti-gun
chatter fell on largely deaf ears. In Maryland, arguably the center of
the anti-gun universe, a Fall 2002 poll showed that only 36 percent of
the people believed there was a need for stronger gun laws, with 53 percent
opposed. In most other regions of the US, gun control has been lucky to
get 20% approval, and polls often run as high as 80% against. To put it
simply, for the time being, gun control is dead in the water. And the elitist
Republican Party, much to its own discomfort, is now wedded to the gun
issue. Any obvious movement toward tighter gun laws may result in the GOP
being ripped to shreds at the ballot box. It has also become increasingly
obvious that declining crime rates nationwide are in direct correlation
to an increase in civilian concealed weapons carry laws. Violent crime
is declining because criminals don't want to be shot by law-abiding gun
owners. The public is growing wise to this, even if the government and
the news media will never openly admit it.
-
- Never let it be said that globalist tyrants will fail
to formulate a Plan B--an end run around public sentiment, aimed at injuring
the Constitution. If there is one area in which the empire builders are
tireless, it is in scheming new ways to dismantle our liberties. Foremost
in their eyes is the obstacle of the Second Amendment. It is the lynchpin
holding what freedoms we have left in place. If the Second Amendment goes,
the people will be utterly subservient to the whims of the state. Guns
are the big target. And it may be that they have worked out, and are implementing,
a unique solution.
-
- The solution may be to radically change the makeup of
the American electorate. To outnumber existing Americans, especially whites,
with millions of immigrants from countries that already have gun control.
These immigrants, in turn, will receive Federal amnesty a few years later,
and become voters. Enter La Reconquista.
-
- Mexico has totalitarian gun control laws. This is something
that is never mentioned in the popular media or the press releases of the
gun control lobby. Sentences for possession of firearms in Mexico can be
up to 30 years. In Mexico, you can be arrested for carrying around a box
of pistol ammunition, and you can be thrown in prison for it. The population
there is accustomed to being disarmed. Mexicans are also much more obedient
to law enforcement than American whites and blacks. We are 'uppity' by
comparison. We are spoiled. We are contentious. Mexicans are not. They
are accustomed to being terrorized by rogue policemen who are little more
than badge-wielding thugs.
-
- The tyrants could gradually abolish US gun ownership
using Mexican-Americans as a voting tool. To do so may take a few years,
but not very long--especially in the numbers that they are pouring across
our borders right now. The population of the US will soar, and the government
will continue to arrogantly ignore complaints from the citizenry, calling
anti-illegal alien talk "bigotry". In all likelihood, southwestern
militia groups, who are trying to guard borders that the Feds won't, will
be arrested and sent to jail. The fix is in.
-
- What better ethnic group to flood the electorate with,
than a people who have never known the right to keep and bear arms?
-
- And what would we call the current state of affairs with
gun laws in heavily Latino-populated California? It is oppressively, unconstitutionally,
almost phobically, anti-gun rights. If there is a state that ends up confiscating
guns door-to-door, that first state will be California. That is what happens
when you blend the horrible legislative ideas of white liberal empire builders
with voting blocks of misled Hispanics, who cannot understand why anyone
would need to own a gun.
-
- A popular motto is, 'as California goes, so goes the
nation'. With the aid of open border policy, perhaps it will.

- Dear Jeff,
-
- I found "Why The Tyrants Want Open Borders"
by Kevin Tuma very interesting reading, outlining why gun control powers
would want to use Mexican immigrant votes to help roll out successful gun
control legislation.
-
- http://rense.com/general34/openb.htm
-
- It certainly made me think. I found it very well thought
out, and certainly reasonable as one possibility, and a clear benefit
to those who wish to enforce gun control, should everything go as planned.
However, I believe the theory presented to be a little on the complicated
side, with too many levels of potential failure, stretched beyond simplicity
in such a way as to make it an unreliable tactic to accomplish the particular
cause of gun control. It relies on the varying political desires of an
uneducated / undereducated portion of the public.
-
- Usually the simplest answer is the correct (or at least
primary) answer. While the open borders may have more than one goal, I
believe the most direct and simple reason for allowing illegal immigrants
to pour into the U.S. was very conveniently and straightforwardly exposed
by Hillary Clinton with her call for a National ID Card.
-
- http://www.newsmax.com/showinsidecover.shtml?a=2003/2/11/120029
-
- It seems to fit the more simplistic pattern of government
manipulation of events to get what they want from the people, without them
putting up as much of a fight as they otherwise would. If U.S. citizens
feel threatened enough by illegal immigration, with the monstrous loss
of funds for Social Security, local services, education and medical
care, among a host of similar concerns, then wouldn't they be much more
pliable and willing to give in to a simple government solution?
-
- Like a National ID Card?
-
- The National ID system could make ID theft far easier
for criminals. Worse yet, it could easily be used against anyone by the
government, allowing your existence to be wiped out financially and bureaucratically
on a whim. This is especially true and simply accomplished with "S.22,
Demon-Child of Patriot Act" coming onto the scene, absolving any and
all government agents of prosecution, or even questioning, for such
misuse of power.
-
- That's the resistance the government wants to overcome.
What to do, what to do... ?
-
- They open the flood gates, hundreds of thousands of hungry,
poor, uneducated immigrants. They don't wish to arrange proper application
for citizenship, but don't mind spending $35,000 per head to be carted
into the U.S. by shadowy individuals with no concern for the well-being
of those he brings in, or for his own country's economic stability.
-
- So it's a simple task to force a situation
that makes citizens desire a quick, easy fix. To make them want to sell
their privacy and freedom away to Big Brother, safe in the knowledge
that at least they'll be the only ones eligible for food stamps.
-
- It doesn't matter that Bush still wants to grant amnesty
and citizen benefits to illegals. The average Joe Sixpack doesn't hear
about that angle from the major media toadies.
