As the Title suggests I am a vet, and proud of it, and proud of all those that wear the uniform of the United States of America. You name it we'll talk about it. Politics, sports and much more. However, I am also very interested in what is happening to this great country of ours, politically and socially...So SOUND OFF PRIVATE!!!

Blacks, Hispanics, Poor Favor Immigration Crackdown

Is it possible that all those marching in the streets aren't really the minority? Is it possible that the real minorities want real control over immigrants coming in to America Illegally? Well according to an article at NewsMax.com back in 2004 a majority of the minorities wanted a stiffer crack down on illegal aliens coming in to the US.

Contrary to conventional wisdom, minorities and the poor overwhelmingly favor a get tough approach on illegal immigration - as they proved just two years ago by supporting Arizona's Proposition 200 in a landslide.

As the 2004 election approached, the immigration crackdown, which proposed denying state services to anyone who couldn't prove they were in the country legally, was decried by critics as "draconian" and "xenophobic."

The proposal was trashed by Arizona's business community. All the state's big newspapers came out against it. Governor Janet Napolitano, Sen. John McCain and Sen. Jon Kyl echoed their opposition. The Chamber of Commerce and the labor unions opposed Prop 200 as well.

Could it be that the "will of the people" has again been squashed by those who have the most to gain. McCain and Napolitano, what did you gain from disolving the will of the people. People that are here legally and have registered to vote.
