Immigration marches pushing far-left agenda
Barry Gadbois

It has been two months since the invasion of America was launched in earnest, and I'm sad to say that Americans are losing. We're losing largely because the other side is well orchestrated, and free to show up in massive numbers, unencumbered by the same shackles as the law-abiding. The ferocity of the other side has ratcheted up precipitously with each passing week, and we can ill afford to ignore it.

Without getting into a long dissertation as to why the media-at-large is not telling you the whole story about these "immigration rallies," let's suffice it to say that they are not. Whether there is an agenda at work in some newsrooms, or there is a pervasive laziness in others is of little consequence. The reality remains that this story, and other complicated situations, are seldom laid out concisely in a news package.

What has been dubbed a "day without immigrants" was anything but. It was a day spent with illegal immigrants in your face, demanding from you the rights and privileges that are precluded by their very behavior. It is a day in which America should see first hand disturbing evidence of just how little control we have over our own economy. We should see in graphic detail just how badly the cancer within has metastasized.

Often in the media pictures inspire headlines. One could look at the masses of people protesting in the streets of Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, or Boston and write the headline "Thousands take the streets demanding justice for immigrants." If I were to write the headline however, it would read "Criminals overtake streets demanding amnesty."

I believe that behind the organization of these so-called rallies and protests is a very deep, far left agenda. The people pushing that agenda have put the faces of families, of innocent children on posters. They are exploiting the poorest Central Americans in an effort to evoke American sympathy for an insane neo-Marxist agenda. That is the ugly part of this story that the New York Times and National Public Radio are not telling you.

The symbolism of May Day might have gone unnoticed to some, but writers like Lowell Ponte caught on quickly. May Day was of course the day for the Soviet Union to hold a parade, bringing its latest weapons through Red Square. Those who long for the days of the real gulags probably did not choose May 1 by accident.

Our current political leaders are not generally stupid people, so one can only assume that they are weighed down by caviar and champagne, and exhausted from filling their own pockets with special interest cash. Ted Kennedy has clearly been so busy over the last 40 years that he has failed to observe the disastrous results of the immigration reform that he spearheaded back in 1965. Kennedy, who has kept Massachusetts limited to one Senate seat for decades, promised his legislative colleagues back then that "our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually."

Daniel Inouye, a long-time hack from Hawaii asserted that "the total number of potential immigrants would not be changed very much." Before 1965 about 300,000 immigrants entered the nation annually. In 1996 more than one million people entered the nation. Inouye was either incompetent, or lying, but the voters of Hawaii don't seem to care.

The simple reality is that before 1965 people who entered the country need health checks, sponsors, means of supporting themselves and places to stay. When Kennedy and the other hard leftists of the time changed the provisions to soften restrictions on just about everyone under the guise of "family reunification," the system was effectively destroyed.

America has, at the expense of capitalism and the working class, become a haven for the sickest, poorest, most criminal characters of the western hemisphere. Asking that people's health, employment, and criminal history be verified before allowing them entry into the country is not racism, its sanity. The hard left wants America full of sick and unemployed people. The hard left wants to see people who cannot speak the language, and are effectively kept from bettering themselves.

Make no mistake about it; the underlying desire from neo-Marxist groups is to create an America so full of victimized people that only the state can save them. They want the creation of more poor people, so that they can show you how the state rescues you from yourself. They want the spread of desperation to be exponential so that they can satisfy it.

Pulling the strings too are advocates of the reconquista movement. These are racist Hispanic groups operating in the southwestern part of the country that actually see the flood which is drowning America as a chance to take back land that they believe is Mexico's. People like State Senator Gil Cedillo, and Los Angeles' Mayor have close ties to hate groups like MEChA.

The wolves are walking our cities in sheep's clothing. It is painfully obvious that the effort to overtake the country is being done with cold calculation. Gone are the flags of Central American countries, now the protesters are given American flags. Tired old liars like Ted Kennedy lead them in poorly inflected chants and claim that they just want to be Americans.

The wolves are tugging at your heartstrings by parading innocent children who wave the stars and strips in the streets. Those kids should make you cry, because they are being moved about as political pawns. What stood in the streets before you Monday was propaganda, and you would do well to be wary of it. We were not wary of it in 1965, and we are paying a high price four decades later.
