Anti-Immigrant Billboard in Georgia Sparks Controversy (illegal aliens, activist, highway, extremist)

[All American NYC]

A billboard along a highway in north Georgia urging the undocumented to move to South Carolina has sparked resentment among activists who say it is an example of the anti-immigrant atmosphere that exists in this state.

Since AP & other media outlets want to use PC terms why not correct the Anti- Immigrant phrase.

What it is is a pressure tactic by right-wing extremists directed to Sen. Graham. The same tactic is used by activists left and center ... when they want to get a point across. Just another day in the life of a healthy democracy.

The newspaper is the "Latin American Herald Tribune"; they don't like it when Americans want ILLEGAL immigration to be stopped.

The Chicago Tribune is even worse, believe it or not. They've apparently decided that the only people who will read print newspapers in the future are poor and barely literate people who can only read Spanish. Sadly, my guess is that they're correct.

Purposelly combining the two, sounds so much better! anti illegal immigration, means wrong not right!

Growing up i knew right from wrong, didn't any of you. Breaking the law, was one of the componets that meant breaking the damn law. Is something wrong you do not do.

But but, but, will play along.

We have avenues for immigrants who want to come to the U.S.A.. Anything
else is illegal. Hooray for Georgia.

Take the crackheads with you.

Remember though, go NORTH, we don't want you either.
