First and foremost, let me say that I am not anti-Hispanic.

Mexican culture is as essential to the United States as Black, Native, Asian, or Anglo culture. I am not anti-Hispanic; however, I am anti-poverty. The wave illegal immigrants to this nation have caused a ballooning effect in the number of persons living below the poverty line. This massive number wreaks havoc on state and local governments struggling to keep infrastructure and resources at sustainable levels. Quite frankly, they are overwhelmed with no help in sight from Uncle Sam.
Here?s my assessment you decide:

Public Education is in crisis. For years educators and school officials have been fighting trying to get reduce class sizes. Now federal mandates like ?No Child Left Behind,? have increased pressures on our education system to increase reading and math scores. Immigrant children are not educated in wealth school districts . They attend inner city schools. Many children are limited or non English speakers. As a result, most schools are in a place where they are competing, on one hand to get their students math and reading levels up to par, and on the other, to help students learn English. Blacks make up a large portion of inner city schools . Who suffers as a result?

I am appalled that prominent Black Leaders have not stood up and spoken on this issue . Are blacks who support Amnesty for Illegal Immigrants aware of the impact that it will have on the nation? Of any one minority group in America today, this effort stands to impact the black community the hardest.

The Bush Administration says that they do jobs that Americans won?t do. What jobs are those. Americans work in restaurants, hotels, and construction. Name the occupation I can show you a relative or a friend.
Lastly, poor communities have grown beyond capacity. Cost of living has skyrocketed wages have remained relatively low.
Minimum wage has increased by 21.2% in the last 12 years, while inflation has increased by 36%. Plug in the numbers yourself at: http://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl

By all accounts, Arizona rancher Robert Krentz was a decent man who had the awful misfortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time when he was murdered in cold blood.

The wrong place was on his own private property in Arizona.

Wrong, because Krentz, an American citizen, was shot and killed by an illegal alien (allegedly) from Mexico. The wrong time was close to midnight on March 27.

According to authorities, the motive for this cold-blooded slaughter may have something to do with the fact that the victim’s brother, Phil Krentz, reported drug smuggling activity on the ranch to the Border Patrol.

New jobless claims filed last week rose by 25,000 to 471,000, the government reported moments ago, defying predictions that they would drop. It’s the largest rise in three months.

The four-week moving average of new jobless claims, which smooths out week-to-week volatility, rose 3,000 to 453,500.

The official U.S. unemployment rate in April was 9.9 percent, up from 9.7 percent in March. But 290,000 new jobs were added to payrolls, encouraging those who believe a recovery is underway.
