L.A. Mayor-Elect Villagairosa Supports "Migrants" (a.k.a. Illegal Aliens)
NewsMax.com reports "Los Angeles Mayor-elect Antonio Villaraigosa said Wednesday that Mexico will play an important role in shaping his policies ... 'We are starting a new era. Instead of closing the borders, as stated by Schwarzenegger, we should look at our border as an opportunity,' Villaraigosa said."
As I redundantly stated in two previous posts (In Response and Note: Los Angeles is Still Part of the U.S. ), California is becoming increasingly subjected to businesses, elected officials, policy makers, et al. throwing their support to Mexico instead of supporting California and the United States by way of enforcing our nation's immigration laws.
Comments made by Mayor-Elect Villagairosa serve as further examples of the very brazen and reprehensible mindset and conduct of today's leaders that would support illegal aliens instead of supporting our federal immigration laws. Villagairosa directly addresses illegal aliens and his support of them through his statement that we should not close our border. Furthermore, he laments the passage of the RealID act aimed at preventing illegal aliens from obtaining drivers licenses and uses a tired line taken from the Democratic Party playbook (and the playbook of many Mexican activist groups and Hispanic lobby groups) that "Politicians in the United States need to understand that immigrants come here for the same reason that immigrants have always come: to work ... Instead of punishing and demonizing them, we should try to integrate them." Statements such as these deliberately blur the distinction between legal immigrants, which most Americans wholeheartedly support, and illegal aliens, which most Americans wholeheartedly oppose.
Reprehensible, I say. Utterly reprehensible.
