A big earthquake with the strength of 8.1 on the Richter scale hits
Mexico.
Two million Mexicans have died and over a million are injured. The
country is totally ruined and the government doesn’t know where to
start with asking for help to rebuild. The rest of the world is in
shock.
Canada is sending troopers to help the Mexican army control the
riots.
Saudi Arabia is sending oil.
Other Latin American countries are sending supplies.
The European community (except France) is sending food and money.
The United States, not to be outdone, is sending two million Mexicans
to replace the dead ones.
God bless America!!!
The United States CIA Fact Book stated in their website the brake down of Ethnicity of the United Mexican States [Mexico] as the following: mestizo (Amerindian-European) 60%, Amerindian or predominantly Amerindian 30%, white 9%, other 1% .
It’s ironic that the U.S Census in the other hand reports the next results for the United States population.
white 79.96%, black 12.85%, Asian 4.43%, Amerindian and Alaska native 0.97%, native Hawaiian and other Pacific islander 0.18%, two or more races 1.61% (July 2007 estimate)
•note: a separate listing for Hispanic is not included because the US Census Bureau considers Hispanic to mean a person of Latin American descent (including persons of Cuban, Mexican, or Puerto Rican origin) living in the US who may be of any race or ethnic group (white, black, Asian, Amerindian.); about 15.1% of the total US population is Hispanic .

This is Obviously wrong!
As they find treaties so important, should we consider these treaties as well, spiritually speaking of course..
U.S. TREATIES MADE UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF “GOD” OR “ALMIGHTY GOD”:
MEXICO, 1848:
“In the name of Almighty God:
The United States of America and the United Mexican States. . . ”
MEXICO, 1853:
“In the name of Almighty God:
The Republic of Mexico and the United States of America. . . ”

OTHER U.S. TREATIES WHICH USE THE WORD “GOD” OR “ALMIGHTY GOD”:
In 1787, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams signed a treaty with Morocco titled “Treaty of Peace and Friendship.” This treaty was done under the authority of “Almighty God.” It also said “trusting in God it will remain permanent.”
In 1865, the United States and Morocco with 10 other powers signed a treaty that began this way:
“In the name of the only God! There is no strength nor power but of God.
“His Excellency the President of the United States of America. . . ”
In 1890, the United States along with at least 15 other nations entered into a treaty against the slave trade. The treaty was titled: “General Act For the Repression of the African Slave Trade.” The treaty began this way:
“In the Name of God Almighty.
The President of the United States of America . . . (other nations followed).”
U.S. TREATIES MADE UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF THE CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY:
RUSSIA, 1824:
“In the name of the Most Holy and Indivisible Trinity.
The President of the United States of America and His Majesty the Emperor of all the Russias. . .”

“In the name of the Most Holy Trinity.”
BRAZIL, 1828, 1849:
“In the name of the Most Holy and Invisible Trinity.
The United States of America and His Majesty the Emperor of Brazil. . . ”
Incredibly, the treaty that the United States entered into in 1783 which ended the Revolutionary War was signed under the authority of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. The treaty began this way: “In the name of the Most Holy and Undivided Trinity.” The American representatives for the treaty were John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and John Jay, soon to be the first Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court.
What does this mean for states that border Mexico?
Will the war bleed over the border?
“The Zapata County Sheriff’s Office, the Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department are telling boaters on Falcon Lake to stay on the United States side of the lake and not venture into Mexican waters,” said a statement released yesterday by the Texas DPS.Fishermen are still advised to stay as far away as possible from any of the Argos-type fishing boats typically used as fishing vessels by Mexican fishermen. These boats have a large prow, a small outboard motor without a cowling and no identification numbers on the hull,” officials stated.
Mexican pirates trolling the waters of the U.S.-Mexico border lake shot and killed a tourist while his wife escaped a hail of bullets and raced her Jet Ski back to American soil. The incident has renewed calls for federal action by border security advocates
Search and rescue teams patrolled the U.S. side of Falcon Lake this weekend searching for the body of Colorado tourist David Michael Hartley, 30, whose wife, Tiffany Hartley, told police he was shot in the back of the head Thursday after being ambushed by gunmen on boats.
The Texas Department of Public Safety announced during a press conference that Hartley was believed to have been killed but his body had not been found. The gunmen are suspected Mexican pirates who prowl Falcon Lake, a favorite spot for water-skiing and bass fishing. There have been five previously reported pirate attacks on that lake this year.
The shooting has led Texas officials to warn American boaters to use caution on the 60-mile lake, in addition to issuing its initial warning following three pirate attacks.
Although many Americans are outraged over this latest border incident, President Barack Obama and his Administration did not comment on the vicious attack on American citizens as well as the unbridled assault on Americans in general. During a press conference held by Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, there was not one word about this unprovoked attack on U.S. citizens.http://www.examiner.com/public-safety-in-national/investigation-of-mexican-pirates-killing-of-american-tourist-intensifies
Immigrants in Illinois meet with Mexican Congressmen
Chicago, Illinois 4-13-10 – A group of immigrants in Illinois met with Mexican Congressmen to ask for more political rights of Mexicans who live abroad.
The committee composed of Mexican community members of the Coalition of Mexican Migrants for Political Rights, had the objective to meet with legislators charged with the responsibility for Mexican Migrant rights. One of the projects proposed by Representative Noemi Reynoso is to reform Mexican elections law in order to give more rights to Mexicans living abroad. The second proposition set forth by Representatives Francisco Rojas Gutierrez and Emilio Chuayaffet of the PAN Party is to create a 6th Congressional District composed of Mexicans living abroad in order to represent the expatriate community in the Mexican Congress.
The immigrants are seeking major participation in the decision making process in both houses of the Mexican legislature.
They also proposed immigration reform to protect human rights of migrants in transition from Mexico and their return (to the USA) in a sincere plea to the Government of the United States.

Campaign for social justice launched in the United States
Chicago, 4-12-10 – El Fuente Unidos de Inmigrantes, a community organization composed mainly of Mexicans in Illinois, agreed to launch a campaign for social justice from April 12 to October 12 of this year.
The campaign is to benefit more than 40 million Mexicans and other Latinos who live in the United States. They will be briefed and educated about the truth of their circumstances and origins and forming coalitions dedicated to education, immigration, health and labor rights.
“The campaign will conclude with a proclamation titled “Paro Nacional Latino;” (Latino National Roll of the Dice, which loosely translates to ‘National Latino Gamble’) demanding no more immigration arrests, and deportation,” said Carlos Arango, President of El Fuente Unidos de Inmigrantes.
During a discussion of immigration reform, the group rejected the legislative proposals of Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-Ill), Barack Obama, Democrat Charles Schumer and Republican Lindsey Graham.
Arango explained that the immigration reform bill sponsored by the congressmen and President Obama “criminalizes undocumented workers under the pretext of national security.” They also will not legitimize the figure of 12 million undocumented Mexicans in the United States, according to Arango. “The true number of this community is more than 40 million people who are subject to the same discrimination and marginalization of our civil, human and economic rights,” explained Arango. The consensus of the meeting agreed that President Obama bears the responsibility for separation of families, deportations, persecutions of immigrants and deaths on the border.
“We clearly state that Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano has an anti-immigrant history as Governor of Arizona and that she has worsened the circumstances of the undocumented worker,” stated Arango.
The community leaders regret that after the marches of 2006, they gave the majority vote to the Democrats, which put President Obama in office, and have received nothing but promises in return.
“We are well aware that the conditions don’t exist in Congress to approve a humane and just immigration reform bill and that Republicans just want to fracture the Immigration Reform bill and Obama’s Health Care bill at the expense of immigrants. We, and our families, are not money that can be spent,” said Arango.
The Union also agreed to launch a national movement in Arizona to help immigrants and to help in the campaign against Sheriff Joe Arpaio and that he (The Sheriff) is the reason for the rise in the deaths of migrants in the Arizona desert who are just looking for a safe place to reside.
Posters on here keep bringing up Mexico’s way of dealing with illegal immigration, but they are the same ones telling everybody that Mexico is this horrible American hating country, and that their people are scum. But now they want to be like them?
So does that make them Scum to?
How risky is it to drive into Mexico as part of my trip? Are there only certain areas that are safe, or could I drive for hundreds of miles in Mexico?
Thanks!
Who do you want to win
Thank you in advance for the help.
Calderon said at his State of the Union speech Sunday that he would continue to protest “unilateral actions” of the U.S. Congress that “exacerbate the persecution” of Mexican illegal immigrants in the United States. He also said that Mexico does not end at the border because “where there is a Mexican. There is Mexico.”
In a statement, Tancredo quipped: “Indeed part of Mexico is moving into the United States, but unfortunately that includes drug runners, gang violence and the Spanish language supplanting English.”
The lawmaker, famous for his tough stance against illegal immigration, added: “I’m sure the people of Mexico would be extremely grateful if Calderon showed as much concern over the well being of Mexicans unlucky enough to still live there as he does for the people who have successfully fled his country.”http://www.statesman.com/blogs/content/shared-gen/blogs/austin/immigration/entries/2007/09/05/tancredo_mexican_drug_runners.html
Please correct me if you think I am wrong.
A century and a half later the California chapter of the League of the United Latin American Citizens is questioning the very legitimacy of the order, as part of their effort to secure amnesty for illegal aliens following President Obama’s recent trip to Mexico.
BARACK OBAMA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: My country has been greatly enriched by migration from Mexico. Mexican-Americans form a critical and enduring link between our nations. And I am committed to fixing our broken immigration system.
WIAN: LULAC claims that 2008 Supreme Court decision in a Texas death penalty case involving a Mexican citizen could render the 1848 border treaty invalid because Congress failed to make the treaty binding on individual states.
So its California director says, “The government of Mexico should exercise its rights to third-party arbitration and reopen all questions of immigration including the rights of Mexican citizens in the United States and the legitimacy of the border itself.”
The group says Mexicans in the United States were treated unfairly after Guadeloupe Hidalgo and should now be given legal status.
JAN TUCKER, LULAC, CALIFORNIA CHAPTER: Mexico didn’t get what it bargained for in giving up its land, then why should it be bound by that border? And even if we’re not going to revisit the issue of the border per se, shouldn’t Mexico have a right to a third party examination?
WIAN: California LULAC suggests Canada, Brazil, Great Britain or France could help renegotiate the border treaty.
LULAC’s national office did not respond to requests for comment on its California chapter statement which also criticized the Obama administration’s appointment of Allen Bornstein as border czar. He’s a former San Diego U.S. attorney credited with cracking down on illegal immigration during the 1990s.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
WIAN: We spoke with Santa Clara University law professor David Sloss who’s written extensively on the Medellin versus Texas Supreme Court decision. He called LULAC’s claim that the border is illegitimate, quote, “pretty absurd.”
However, Sloss says there is the small possibility that a small number of descendants of Mexicans living in the southwest in 1848 could have a claim to U.S. citizenship, Lou.
DOBBS: All right. And one would hope that they are already citizens.
We appreciate it. Thank you, Casey. Another bizarre part of what is often a very messy issue, illegal immigration, border security. You would think it should be so straightforward, wouldn’t you?

Colette-
Where in the Constitution is the US declared a “Secular Nation”? Be specific please.
Zilla – Please answer this question and I’ll then answer yours. My question, my timing, ty
Colette – Sorry, the abscence of a national religion doesnt make the US a secular country. Ask any meist here, you cannot disprove the negative.
Zilla – So you agree the Tripoli Treaty should not be used as “proof” we are a secularist country?
I own a home there but i don’t know how to get internet installed there
please no suggestions of hotspots, they dont exist there.
Cell phone service is a bit limited there
besides i was hoping for a more stationary service
Also, do they stress teaching Canadian history to the students along the US-Canada border?
I can go on Yahoo Answers Brazil, Frane, Germany, Japan, etc., but not Mexico.
I get, “Problem loading page.
Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server
I have no idea what the problem might be. I’ve tried going on Safe Mode and I was still denied.
Calderon noted 6 million of the 11 million Mexican migrants in the United States are undocumented, and endorsed the creation of what he called the League Against Discrimination Against Mexicans in the United States.
Pablo Alonso Flores, a member of advisory council of the Institute of Mexicans Abroad, described the new anti-discrimination league as a group “run by Mexican-Americans, aimed mainly at defending our rights peacefully and respectfully, while not allowing media attacks on the integrity, roots and customs of Mexicans.”
Calderon also endorsed a project to expand shelters for deported migrants in Mexican border cities.
Several recent high-profile immigration enforcement raids, and political setbacks like Wednesday’s decision by New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer to abandon a plan to issue driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, have put immigrant activists in a grim mood.
Also Wednesday, Mexico City officials announced a program to offer city residents living in the United States low fees for sending money home.
As part of the program, the estimated 600,000 Mexico City migrants will also receive free life insurance policies. If they die, the policy will enable their relatives in Mexico to repatriate their remains free of charge.

I suggest giving us Blacks the Southern part of the United States, Mexicans the Western part of the United States, and Whites can have the Northern part of the United States including the Eastern part of the United States since they’re the majority.
Nevermind that healthy citizens make better workers and boost the economy.
Nevermind that healthy soldiers make better soldiers and boost the well-being of our armed forces.
Nevermind that obesity rates are skyrocketing and we don’t even teach physical education in schools anymore.
Nevermind that college and university drop-out rates are 40% higher amongst students with health problems.
Do you know anyone who couldn’t work because they couldn’t afford the proper healthcare treatment?
Do you know anyone who tried out for the army but couldn’t pass the physical (they recently lowered their standards again)?
Do you know anyone who is obese and lacks the willpower to go exercise?
Do you know anyone who dropped out of college or university because of a health problem?
Let’s compare. In Canada healthcare is free. Got an injury or ailment? Walk into your local hospital and get all the treatment you need… provided you are Canadian and have hospital card to prove it.
Why can’t we create a Canadian-style healthcare system in America?
Canada’s economic GDP was only $1.165 trillion USD in 2006. The GDP for the United States in 2006 was $12.98 trillion USD. We are over ten times more wealthy than Canadians. Canada’s population is 34 million. Ours is 298 million. We could easily create a free healthcare system in the United States that is even better than that in Canada.
But with one problem.
Canada’s healthcare system is regulated by the government. Doctors have fixed wages and can only earn so much.
In America our doctors are greedy and they can charge whatever they want. In other words, our doctors have a GOD complex. They have the power to save people, but can choose not to do it simply for the sake of money.
And thats what is wrong with America today
HEALTH SYSTEM IS BROKEN HERE AND THERE ARE A BUNCH OF AMERICANS WHO STILL WANT TO LEAVE IT THE SAME WAY EVEN THOUGH THEY CAN’T FUCKING AFFORD IT.
Mexicans and Canadians have a better care, affordable and simple, not like the one here.
What do u think?
I WORK AND LIVE IN USA, BUT I WILL STOP SUPPORTING AMERICAN DOCTORS SINCE I CAN GO TO MEXICO AND GET ANY TREATMENT WITH MY INSURANCE FROM THERE PROVIDED BY THE GOVERNMENT. THAT INSURANCE GIVES ACCES TO ALL TYPES OF CARE.
We call Mexicans and everyone who speaks Spanish, Spanish/Hispanic.
We call all black people in America, African Americans. Obviously not realizing that not all black people’s (black Haitians, Jamacians, Cubans etc.) history/ancestors/culture is “Martin Luther King, Slavery, etc
We don’t see South American people as Americans.
But at the same time, we are such an educted nation. Why does this happen?
- Again!! I have to post this all the time…….. If you are someone from the United States who is not like what I described above, then I am not talking about you. I am not generalizing “all” people from the US. I am from the US myself.
Gay Mexican granted asylum after long battle
Los Angeles Times
Wednesday, January 31, 2007
A U.S. immigration judge granted a Mexican immigrant asylum, citing his sexual orientation and the severe persecution of gays in Mexico, the man’s lawyer said Tuesday.
Jorge Soto Vega, 38, said he had suffered harassment and violence from family members and authorities in Mexico because he is gay.
According to court documents, while living in Guadalajara, Soto Vega was beaten by police and then robbed, called anti-gay slurs, and told that he would be killed if he was ever seen again.
In 1988, Soto Vega paid a smuggler to sneak him into the United States, and he settled in the Hollywood and Silver Lake areas of Los Angeles. In 2001, Soto Vega returned from a brief visit to Mexico after his mother’s death, during which he said he was afraid to go outside. He filed an application for asylum the next year.
Do you think this spring break will be different? Will fewer people go to Mexico?
