Illegal is...still illegal.

While on the kick of radicalization I wanted to get my thoughts on the recent legislation by Arizona that is pissing off a lot of people, some of whom I know and consider friends if not friendly acquaintances.

Even though I am a Democrat leaning radical there is one thing I don’t agree on and that is illegal immigration. Aside from the Native Americans all of us in the states are immigrants or the product of immigrants, this is true. So how can I be against illegal immigrants? Easy, the term illegal.

I may not have a lot of value in the United States of America as this beacon of world justice, equity and the way to live as a gOD fearing human being…no. I’m American by birth not be choice. So I’m not saying that people shouldn’t come into America and that they should stay in their own country. No I am all for people living where they want to.

But there is a process that needs to be gone through in each country for an ex-patriot to become a legal citizen or temporary alien within said country of choice. Every single country in the world has rules relating to these ideas and according to the laws of each country that government expects ex-patriots to follow the laws and go through the required processes for citizenship or extended residency.

WHY IS THIS SO HARD TO BRING INTO THE EQUATION?

Look, people who enter a country illegally to try and make their lives a little easier know exactly what they are doing, they are entering a country ILLEGALLY and when/if they are caught by the authorities they have to understand they will be deported to their country of origin at a minimum.

In regards to illegal immigrants and their rights there isn’t much they are rightfully due in accordance to laws that govern and protect established and legal citizens. There are laws and protocols that are, or should be, generally understood in much of the world in humanly dealing with illegal immigrants. Illegal immigrants, in the terms of humanitarian means should not be treated harshly or tortured because they do not afford the rights of a legal citizen. If the only reason they are in custody is because they are illegal there is no reason for any law enforcement agent to treat them as anything other than a minor offender.

But, if someone is found in the country illegally then the only option, THE ONE AND ONLY POSSIBLE OUTCOME BY THE LAW, is deportation back to their country of origin. PERIOD!!!

What is wrong with this? Why is this an issue? This is not racial profiling or anti anyone, the only anti it is, is anti-ILLEGAL ALIEN. Whether Russian, Sudanese, Mexican or Californian, if you illegally enter the United States of America and reside with in it for ANY amount of time as an illegal alien you should promptly be returned to the country you retain citizenship status in.

Now there are a few cases were leniency or complications can take place. The biggest one with many protestors is the idea of an illegal alien with children who are legal citizens. In cases such as these, there should be and probably are to an extent, allowances for the speed in which deportation takes place as well as the speed in the legalization process. Children born in the United States by illegal aliens are legal citizens, but their parents still have to go through some form of naturalization or at least extended visa status to remain within the country. The existence of their children SHOULD come into play in delaying their deportation and in speeding up their naturalization process. (Yes I said the same thing twice)

If someone is in the country 10 years illegally and when they are finally caught and they start bitching about not given the opportunity to become legal…shame on them, they had 10 years to work through that process. If there is a network that is extensive and supportive that they rely on to find employment, residency and even licensing as an illegal, they sure as hell can get access to a network that will safely help them through the legalization process.

Beyond due process of law afforded to an illegal alien in the terms of their illegal residency with in the country or in some cases criminal litigation for additional crimes committed, illegal citizens do not have additional rights beyond human rights. I can see where the wacko conservative ass holes are right in the sense that illegal aliens should not be provided anything with tax money beyond the costs associated with their deportation. They should not be provided an attorney is they can not afford one, they should not receive welfare, and they should not receive any form of government subsidized assistance afforded to citizens of the country they are with in. Period. This has nothing to do with whether or not they pay taxes as illegal workers, it has everything to do with the fact they are illegal.

With out counting the number of times I have written illegal in this post I can’t stress it enough. ILLEGAL = ILLEGAL, against the law, done with the understanding of deceit. Breaking rules that govern the entity. The law says, any person who has entered the country illegally shall be returned to their country of origin.

Instead of foolishly fighting against the deportation of illegal aliens, everyone needs to start protesting about the bureaucracy involved with naturalization/citizenship. If you are for everyone being able to easily enter and reside and work and live within this country than fight for everyone to be able to do that legally easier than it currently is.

I know naturalization in this country isn’t an easy process, to some extent it makes sense, we can’t let everyone in, some of them are crazy…you just get a free pass if you were born here crazy!!!

It's not Socialism...it's taking down Capitolism!!

Hmmm…it has been quite a while since anything has generated from my brain that is worth posting and I’m not sure if what I have to say is worthy…to an extent.

After thoughts, concerns and time as well as watching a number of documentaries and having some conversations I have come to the conclusion that we are pretty much FUCKED!

The reason we are so screwed is all due to greed. Yes ladies and gentlemen the reason why humankind has suffered for sooooooo long is due to some people’s obsession with possessions. People who have personalities in place that allow them to gain incredible power and use that power to build their resources, for better or worse.

Now, not every greedy person has chosen to do so at any cost necessary and some greedy individuals have seen the light and decided to return some of what they have reaped through whatever nefarious means to those less fortunate and/or motivated.

So where that leaves us, to the best of my knowledge is thus…

The rapidly developing Asian nations are producing all of the goods the western nations consume with abandon. They are given this amazing opportunity because they can do it cheaper than the modern western nations can due to; lack of ‘expensive’ anti-pollution measures, lack of modern workers rights and a general apathy for any of these by the multi national corporations that spurn on this growth.

It’s still incredibly hard to tell me that it costs less to have your injection molding done in China by a legion of field workers then ship it, once the logistics are all straightened out with dealing with their bureaucratic nightmare, across the ocean to be unloaded in California and shipped over land to your distribution hubs. This is cheaper? You have to be kidding me, it might have been cheaper at one point but it can’t be that much of a cost savings measure now.

We are slitting our own throats for an instant and short term profit margin. Many of the people responsible only care about themselves and that concern only stretches about as far as the fabled goldfish memory span.

While the vegans and PETA fucks are going about it the wrong way ultimately their underlying message is correct and should be headed. Why are we cutting down swaths of forests that create the air we breathe only to provide inexpensive hamburgers? When in the end the health problems attributed to the mass consumption of fast food blow the cost of a good meal out of the water and cost of what we are doing to our world overshadows that exponentially. It is incredibly fucked that the countries that we use to help subsidize out produce and livestock are using methods of farming that ultimately cost them more money than they originally thought to save while also devaluing our own resources.

Why are we, one of the largest nations in the world, so hell bent and controlled by importing every fucking thing we consume?

We desperately need to re-educate every single person in our nation that we must not expect the cheapest value, doing so will only continue this shortfall on our longevity all again at the cost of instant savings. I don’t know how much I can stress that.

It is cheaper to buy junk food than healthy food.

Every time I look at the news now I feel this great and overwhelming sense of despair.

Much like it was hard for me not to flee the resort I stayed at in Mexico during my honeymoon to go join the Zapatista’s

It is incredibly hard for me to contain my self in the plight of how much every single one of us is being fucked by these dick heads.

And not pick up a gun and fight for revolution.

We need to mobilize against the people who currently control the world. We need a revolution, everyone needs to wake up and realize they are being played.

The Bolsheviks were partially right, but they only mobilized the people for their own greed…which is something that will always face mankind, but right now the best course of action the world can take, actually the people of the world, is to over throw the elites currently in power. While I greatly detest organized religion, I’m not going to call out against the religious leaders in the world, they seem to actually be acting sanely on the outside at the moment, yes even the Islamic clerics to all you foolish pro-patriotic knuckleheads…fuck you and your semper fidelis blinders. (Nothing against jarheads just people who use Americanism as a cover for racism). We do need to leave the Middle East the fuck alone, let them, as independent peoples control their own destinies…but OPEC needs to be destroyed. The easiest way that will happen is when we tell them to go fuck themselves and stop using their product.

Again, a small and vocal minority has the right idea but the wrong reasons. The conservationists and environmentalists are absolutely right for what they are yelling about, but it’s not because of the world. It’s because of us. If we don’t do something to stop the destruction of the world right now WE will go away. The planet will remain and some of the flora/fauna will as well but ultimately we will probably not exist any more. We have a hard time adapting to extremities and have always relied on mechanical means to cope. We haven’t been evolving our bodies to adjust to changes just artificially adjusting out environment. Eventually we won’t be able to keep up if things progress as fast as the doomsayers predict.

Let’s be perfectly honest, most people only do what they do in terms of activism to save themselves, we are selfish…period.

If we want to survive as a race, if we TRULY care about our future generations, the only thing we can do is be completely honest with our intentions. We must spread the message that we need to stop the destruction of the world in order to remain on it. Fuck the rest of the species’ survival, that isn’t the real reason. We have to honestly say we only care about our selves, and maybe that will make the average man wake up and join the cause. Once that is in place the revolution can begin.

Fuck the leaders we need to change this stuff quick, or else we are all doomed.
