If the Federal government would notify cities when and where these children were going then these mistakes would not happen. But they choose to ambush these cities instead.

"Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

They have been, as I said you seem uninformed, so hence do not try protesting you will be in the wrong place anyway. We have been informed here in Dallas since it first started and there have even been cityhall discussions on the matter, if you have not been notified they are not coming to your town, feel better?

What the heck is an "undocumented worker"? There is no such lingo in our immigration laws. They are illegal aliens and yes there is much we can do to deter this invasion which has accelerated over the past decade or so and now this new influx of so-called minor children.

Arizona xenophobes stop bus full of immigrant children...


Is there any evidence they are "xenophobes", and not just U.S. citizens angry over people coming into this country illegally?

They made a mistake. It is understandable, an a regrettable part of a situation where they can no longer trust their own government to obey its own laws.

Such mistakes will continue. If people could rely on their government to do its job, they would not have to stop buses on their own, since they would be confident that the government would never let people enter illegally and even transport them around within this country.

Wouldn't the best solution be to make government obey its own laws, instead of calling people names?

Just sickening.
Exactly my thoughts about it.

I wonder if this will end or end somewhat when a new president takes office.

I wait for that day, but in the meantime, lots of destruction.

I'm going to put up a topic if I can get it here, about Obama vs the suburbs, something Rush Limbaugh was talking about. Basically, Obama said he was going to change America in his 2nd term. Since he feels people in the suburbs got lucky or rich enough to move to the nice clean suburbs, and the poor people were stuck in the city because they had no money or weren't lucky or didn't get a break like the suburbanites, he is starting to put in low income housing projects in the nice affluent suburbs, and this is under the table. let me see if I can link it in a new topic or maybe here in this one.

No. 4: Make Mexican border towns off limits to our military. Those towns depend on that money. Starve them.
No. 5: Refuse trade with Mexico. No more Mexican produce. If we can't do that, refuse to buy Mexican produce.
No. 6: End all US aid to any Central American country (or Mexico) until they end human trafficking.

I'm sure there are other things that can be done as well.
^THIS and demand to know what "deal" Mexico made with these Countries to fast track them here. They just passed the buck on this problem. These people were illegal aliens while they were in Mexico too. Is the Mexican Govt knowingly partaking in human smuggling for profit?

Xenophobia has nothing to do with it as we allow in over 1 million legal immigrants from all over the world annually.
Well, if Americans are angry at their government, they should take it up with the government, go after the powers that be. Don't go after children.
