I'm not the author of the below which is being circulated by emails among those opposed to the ridiculous immigration situation in our USA. But I have live most of my life in California and the below is all too obvious and sad.

From the L.A Times:
1. 40% of all workers in L.A. County ( L.A. County has 10 million
people) are working for cash and not paying taxes. This was because
they are predominantly illegal immigrants, working without a green
card.
2. 95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.
3. 75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles are illegal
aliens.
4. Over 2/3 of all births in Los Angeles County are to illegal alien
Mexicans on Medi-Cal, whose births were paid for by taxpayers.
5. Nearly 25% of all inmates in California detention centers are
Mexican nationals here illegally.
6. Over 300,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles County are living in
garages.
7. The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most
likely illegal aliens from south of the border.
8. Nearly 60% of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.
9. 21 radio stations in L.A. are Spanish speaking.
10. In L.A. County 5.1 million people speak English. 3.9 million
speak Spanish (10.2 million people in L.A. County).
(All the above from the Los Angeles Times)
Less than 2% of illegal aliens are picking our crops, but 29% are on
welfare.
Over 70% of the United States' annual population growth (and over
90% of California, Florida, and New York) results from immigration.
The cost of immigration to the American taxpayer in 1997 was,
(after subtracting taxes immigrants pay), a NET $70 BILLION a year,
[Professor Donald Huddle, Rice University]. The lifetime fiscal impact
(taxes paid minus services used) for the average adult Mexican
immigrant is a NEGATIVE number.
29% of inmates in federal prisons are illegal aliens.
If they can come to this country to raise Hell and demonstration by the
thousands, Why can't they take charge over the corruption in their own
country?
We are a bunch of fools for letting this continue.
THE U.S. VS MEXICO: On February 15, 1998, the U.S. and Mexican soccer
teams met at the Los Angeles Coliseum. The crowd was overwhelmingly
pro-Mexican even though most lived in this country. They booed during
the National Anthem and U.S. flags were held upside down. As the match
progressed, supporters of the U.S. team were insulted, pelted with
projectiles, punched and spat upon. Beer and trash were thrown at the
U.S. players before and after the match. The coach of the U.S. team,
Steve Sampson said, "This was the most painful experience I have ever
had in this profession."
Did you know that immigrants from Mexico and other non-European
countries can come to this country and get preferences in jobs,
education, and government contracts? It's called affirmative action or
racial privilege. The Emperor of Japan or the President of Mexico could
migrate here and immediately be eligible for special rights unavailable
for Americans of European descent.
Recently, a vote was taken in the U.S. Congress to end this practice.
It was defeated. Every single Democratic senator except Ernest
Hollings voted to maintain special privileges for Hispanic, Asian and
African immigrants. They were joined by thirteen Republicans. Bill
Clinton and Al Gore have repeatedly stated that they believe that
massive immigration from countries like Mexico is good. They have also
backed special privileges for these immigrants.
Corporate America has signed on to the idea that minorities and third
world immigrants should get special, privileged status. Some examples
are Exxon, Texaco, Merrill Lynch, Boeing, Paine Weber, Starbucks and
many more.
DID YOU KNOW?: That Mexico regularly intercedes on the side of the
defense in criminal cases involving Mexican nationals? Did you know
that Mexico has NEVER extradited a Mexican national accused of murder
in the U.S. in spite of agreements to do so? According to the L.A.
Times, Orange County, California is home to
275 gangs with 17,000 members; 98% of which are Mexican and Asian.
How's your county doing?
According to a New York Times article dated May 19, 1994, 20 years
after the great influx of legal immigrants from Southeast Asia, 30% are
still on welfare compared to 8% of households nationwide. A Wall
Street Journal editorial dated December 5, 1994 quotes law enforcement
officials as stating that Asian mobsters are the "greatest criminal
challenge the country faces." Not bad for a group that is still under
5% of the population.
Is education important to you? Here are the words of a teacher who
spent over 20 years in the Los Angeles School system. "Imagine teachers
in classes containing 30-40 students of widely varying attention spans
and motivation, many of whom aren't fluent in English. Educators seek
learning materials likely to reach the majority of students and that
means fewer words and math problems and more pictures and multicultural
references."
WHEN I WAS YOUNG: I remember hearing about the immigrants that came
through Ellis Island. They wanted to learn English. They wanted to
breathe free. They wanted to become Americans. Now, far too many
immigrants come here with demands. They demand to be taught in their
own language. They demand special privileges--affirmative action.
They demand ethnic studies that glorify their culture.
