Operation Wetback

In 1949 the Border Patrol seized nearly 280,000 illegal immigrants. By 1953, the numbers had grown to more than 865,000, and the U.S. government felt pressured to do something about the onslaught of immigration. What resulted was Operation Wetback, devised in 1954 under the supervision of new commissioner of the Immigration and Nationalization Service, Gen. Joseph Swing.

Swing oversaw the Border patrol, and organized state and local officials along with the police. The object of his intense border enforcement were "illegal aliens," but common practice of Operation Wetback focused on Mexicans in general. The police swarmed through Mexican American barrios throughout the southeastern states. Some Mexicans, fearful of the potential violence of this militarization, fled back south across the border. In 1954, the agents discovered over 1 million illegal immigrants.

In some cases, illegal immigrants were deported along with their American-born children, who were by law U.S. citizens. The agents used a wide brush in their criteria for interrogating potential aliens. They adopted the practice of stopping "Mexican-looking" citizens on the street and asking for identification. This practice incited and angered many U.S. citizens who were of Mexican American descent. Opponents in both the United States and Mexico complained of "police-state" methods, and Operation Wetback was abandoned.

Can we have him raked over the coals and forced to apologize multiple times before he's kicked off the airways forever?

Please?

2. No thinking about it I know I do

pat pukecannon can kiss my ass. Never did like the guy from his nixonain days on.

The place we find ourselves today is because of the policies put forth by our elected representatives and the companies they represent. We need to quit making life tougher for our south American brothers and sisters so they don't have to leave home. Could you imagine for a moment what it would be like to embark on a dark and lonely journey to another country where you knew no one and no one knew you, having to sneaki in through the night to get there and having to stay in the shadows as a nothing once you got there. I couldn't. Throw the bums in jail that make this have to be. the bums like our elected officials and the companies they represent that makes this all necessary to begin with. The sonsubitches, politicians and owners, work us all from both ends and it needs to be stopped. Its not the people who come heres fault, they have no choice, its ours for allowing this to continue for so long. I would love to see the usa have normal relations with all countries and especially our neighbors to the south of us but that won't happen as long as our companies can exploit these people.

I have to tell you I've learned a lot since I first came here. I learned that its not the people who come here's fault but the fault of our government and companies who love it the way it is. I'm ready to go kick some ass and I'm not talking about our brown skinned brothers and sisters either. I'm talking about these have mores and their bought and paid for supposed to be our representatives.

Damn got my blood boiling already :-)

3. When will the media

admit that Patrick Buchanan is nothing short of a Neo-Nazi with a smile? I mean he was praising Hitler not so very long ago saying he was not all that bad. Patrick Buchanan should be universally shunned by the media.
