When is the immigration law protest in New Mexico?

I don't think that there are protest planned in New Mexico. \n\nAll immigrants should supports the May 1 boycott. Those people who say bad things about the people are just AFRAID that the U.S. government will find out what will REALLY happen without immigrants.

I hope so, it is time to send some if not all of the ILLEGALS back to where they come from. So if you are legal better take your paperwork to the rally or you might find yourself on a bus to Mexico.

On March 17, 2006, an estimated 25,000 illegals from Ireland marched boldly in the St. Patrick's Day Parade in NY without fear of any enforcement of our immigration laws. I told my friends at the time: this unchecked in-your-face, "we demand respect" display by illegals will embolden them to demand they be given a free pass and when that doesn't happen, it will reach the point of violence.\n\nOn March 24, 2006, hundreds of high school students in LA walked out of their classrooms to protest the newest piece of completely unnecessary immigration legislation by the incompetent fools in Congress. Within hours 15,000 criminals (illegals) were marching in Phoenix and roughly 10,000 in Georgia.\n(Seems Fairly ORGANIZED)\n On March 25, 2006, waving their Mexican flags chanting the same worn out "racist" garbage and demanding their "rights" 50,000 of these criminals marched in Denver, thousands in North Carolina and here in Sacramento. All because the House of Representatives has passed legislation that would make it a felony to be in the U.S. illegally, impose new penalties on employers who hire illegal immigrants and erect fences along one-third of the U.S.-Mexican border.\n\n(AGAIN Seems Fairly ORGANIZED On A NATIONAL Level)\n \nThe counterfeit Senate is to begin their bickering on March 28, 2006.\n\nOur economy will not fail by rounding up illegals and deporting them. \nOn ABC This Week, March 26, 2006, weasel Arlen Specter, hauled out the other big lie, "We have created a need for these workers who will do the work Americans won't." \n\nBull. Once we begin to deport these criminals, Americans \nwill step in and do the jobs - jobs that have been taken away from them because employers have turned a blind eye to the law and are looking for cheap labor. As for Arlen Specter: why is he still sitting on his backside doing nothing while banks in this country are knowingly and aggressively violating federal law by giving home mortgages to criminals (illegals). Congress and the Department of Justice are simply ignoring this outrage, yet Specter blathers on the stupid tube that these 15 million plus criminals should be given a free pass.\n\n According to Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.), who is head of the \nCongressional Immigration Reform Caucus, \n  \n"Massive immigration of low-skilled, low-wage workers ... \ndepresses wage rates for people who are at the low economic end of the scale. ... \nThe overall effect will be the decline of the living standard of every American, \nor most Americans."\n\nIllegal immigration cuts into the wages of American workers. \nAccording to Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.), who is head of the \nCongressional Immigration Reform Caucus, \n  \n"Massive immigration of low-skilled, low-wage workers ... \ndepresses wage rates for people who are at the low economic end of the scale. ... \nThe overall effect will be the decline of the living standard of every American, \nor most Americans."\n\nAccording to TNRIP, the financial cost of this foreign invasion to U.S. taxpayers \nis staggering! Here is a break down of the annual costs: \n\nEducation: $22.5 billion \nBi-lingual Education: $3.3 billion \nAFDC: $2.4 billion \nSSI: $2.9 billion \nSocial Security: $24.8 billion \nHousing Assistance: $2.6 billion \nCriminal Justice: $2.6 billion \nJobs Lost by Americans: $10.8 billion \nOther Programs: $51.4 billion \nFood Stamps: $7 billion \nHealth Care: $1.4 billion \n\nTom Tancredo was the other guest on the aforementioned show and he said it right: We don't need any new laws, enforce the immigration laws that are already on the books.\n\nThis IS what's coming right to your neighborhood: One of these days in the near future, these millions of illegals are going to become berserkers. It is the intention of Mexicans to "reclaim" the four border states and merge them back with Mexico and they are willing to do it with violence. These 15 million

It seems odd to me that the only ones demonstrating are the illegals.  Where is everyone else?  I have been writing and calling my represetnatives about this but it is curious why there are NO organized marches AGAINST illegals.\n\nCould it possibly be that the illegal immigrant marches are secretly organized by the Bush administration to give him ammunition for his idiotic Guest Worker program?  Hummm.

Its not a Mexican issue with me--its a legal issue and a environment  and a budget issue. \n\nAnd many get angry on both sides and say things they most likely don't mean.

HERES The Racism-\nALL The RACISM You Want\n\n\nMexico's President Fox has been unrelenting in his brazen demands on the United States, starting with open borders even before he was elected. He has called for the border to be “a joining line.” His visits to the U.S. have been filled with endless requirements for Mexican citizens illegally in this country — free healthcare, taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition for illegals at state colleges and universities, guestworker programs and amnesty for all. \n\n                                                             **************************\n\nMexican American Legal Defense Fund founder Mario Obledo stated, “California is going to be a Hispanic state. Anyone who doesn't like it should leave. Every constitutional office in California is going to be held by Hispanics in the next 20 years.  People who don't like such demographic changes “should go back to Europe.” (Incidentally,  Senor  Obledo was also the California Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Gov. Jerry Brown.) \n\n\nObledo Is A Member Of "MEChA" And "LA RAZA"\n\n                                                 ********************\n\nThe newly "ELECTED"mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, joined the lawbreakers and proclaimed "this bill in Congress is wrong". Señor Villaraigosa said "The only thing illegal is making 11 million illegal aliens felons." Yeah, he Actually said that. People should make no mistake about it: Villaraigosa was "ELECTED" by ILLEGALs VOTING, and HIS Allegiance, along with the rest of these "ELECTED" public officials in California of Mexican ancestry is to Mexico, not California or these United States of America. Villaraigosa has spent a lifetime opposing U.S. immigration laws.\n\nVillaraigosa is A Member Of  "MEChA"  and  " LA RAZA"\n\n                                               *********************\n\nMEChA and the La Raza movement teach that Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington State make up an area known as "AZTLAN" -- a fictional ancestral homeland of the Aztecs before Europeans arrived in North America. As such, it belongs to the followers of MEChA. These are all areas America should surrender to "La Raza" once enough immigrants, legal or illegal, enter to claim a majority, as in Los Angeles. The current borders of the United States will  be extinguished.\n\n The Council of La Raza succeeded in having itself added to congressional hearings by Republican House and Senate leaders. And an anonymous senator even gave the Council of La Raza an extra $4 million in earmarked taxpayer money, supposedly for "housing reform," while La Raza continues to lobby the Senate for virtual open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens. \n\nhttp://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=13863\n\n"We have an aging white America ...

To be fair its mostly illegal aliens protesting.  \nWhy should they even have a say in what the new immigration law is?  They should come over here legally.  \nIt isn't fair to the people who go through the proper channels for these people to come here and ruin it for them.\nThey're even making it harder for those of us who were born here to get ID's  and licenses and such, it makes me really mad.

One Border Patrol officer stated that "They believe that they are only responding to an invitation." \n\nEl Presidente Vicente Fox's administration has embraced this reality. In fact, increasing the number of Mexicans working illegally in the United States is among Mexico's highest foreign policy objectives. \n\nThus, in orchestrating this war on America, the Mexican state is representing the desires of the Mexican people as a whole. \n\nWhat are these desires? \n\n(1) Political revanchism—to regain control of the territories Mexico lost to the U.S. in 1848, thus avenging themselves for the humiliations they feel they have suffered at our hands for the last century and a half; \n\n(2) Cultural imperialism—to expand the Mexican culture and the Spanish language into North America; and especially \n\n(3) Economic parasitism—to maintain and increase the flow of billions of dollars that Mexicans in the U.S. send back to their relatives at home every year, \n(39 BILLION US DOLLARS) \nA major factor keeping the chronically troubled Mexican economy afloat and the corrupt Mexican political system cocooned in its status quo. \n\nThese motives are shared by the Mexican masses and the elites. \n\nAccording to a Zogby poll in 2002, 58 percent of the Mexican people believe the U.S. Southwest belongs to Mexico, and 57 percent believe that Mexicans HAVE THE RIGHT TO FREELY ENTER the United States without U.S. permission. Only small minorities disagreed with these propositions.

The living wage law didn't pass (I think they were trying for $7.50, not $9.50 if I recall properly).  \n\nBut here's what I can find on the new minimum wage laws for Albuquerque next year:\n\nhttp://www.cabq.gov/planning/nbrcoord/councilmessage.html\n\nSanta Fe does have a living wage for larger employers, but I'm not sure what the numbers are...

Well I live near L.A. and driving home from work yesterday I saw no less than 10 people on the sides of roads and at bus stops waving Mexican flags and urging cars to beep.  It is nice to see them so vehemently praising their country.  So then why do they fight to stay here?\n\nThey are protesting because we are passing (or trying to pass) a national law that makes it a felony to be here illegally.   There are many nuances about this bill that make people upset, mainly that churches will have to check papers before offering charity aid to people.  This won't fly (due to separation of church and state), but other than that piece, this bill is a good idea.  \n\nThey come here and take jobs and don't pay (enough) taxes, and drain on society, but get mad when we "insult their mexican heritage".  Then go back to Mexico.  There is no law that says we have to open our gates.  Look at other countries where getting a visa is next to impossible.  We should be more like that.  This is simply my opinion.

Um, we/they do, you just don't hear about it because the news doesn't give a damn about Mexico.\nit's difficult to organize because our voices do not resonate as far as Mexico City, and to protest within the boundaries of Mexico would be to sign one's own death sentence, instead it is subtle political movements, the rise of the socialist party on local levels, voting to make change as far as one's vote counts, which is only on a state/local level. \nthe atrocities committed by the Mexican government are too numerous and too well disguised and denied to illustrate, the only one they have done a poor enough job of hiding to use against them are the murders in Juarez.\nThe key organization of protest against Mexico stemming from the murders is Las Amigas De Las Mujeres De Juarez. It encompasses the border around Juarez including the cities and towns of Las Cruces, New Mexico; El Paso, Texas; Anthony, both the Texas and New Mexico sides; and many other small towns in the area.\nMany of the protests are simple and very similar to those of Native Americans, such as a refusal to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. To many of us it is an idiotic celebration of a hollow victory, that was when we won the battle against France and personally we don’t really care about that. The immigration restrictions worry us because they keep people who are being killed and oppressed daily trapped, it’s like when the US refused to take the Jews from Germany. \nAnd we don’t send our money back to Mexico itself; we send it to our family members so that they can eventually save enough to join us in America. As for free healthcare and free education, it doesn’t exist. As much as you would like to think so nothing is free, often times we have to work in the fields as migrant workers to make enough money to pay to have somewhere to live and enough to eat to survive, social programs like “the projects,” welfare, and food stamps do not apply to us because we are not citizens. \nIronically we are often more a representation of “The American Work Ethic” than many of your rich white Americans. They don't start from nothing, or if they do it is rare.

What I want to know is where is the "INS" in this country when the Illegals are protesting. Our government is charged by the Constitution to PROTECT the American people. The millions of illegals in this country are the same as an invasion! Where's the National Guard? Oh that's right there over in Iraq Protecting Halliburtons and KBR workers. How F*cked up is that?
