Reading some of the Post on here are unbelievable. The definition of alien is a foreign born resident who has not been naturalized and is still a subject or citizen of a foreign country. These non citizens of the United States are ILLEGAL ALIENS. They have no rights to demand anything. I too am a black American, and I agree with the other blacks on here. Blacks were brought here as slaves to help build this country for free. As U. S. citizens, blacks fought for their rights during Jim Crowism. I haven't heard any of these supporters talk about some of these racist Latino groups who plan on taking this country over. I live in Ward 4 D.C., and I have seen what my longtime middle class neighborhood is becoming, a ghetto barrio with a third world invasion. My own Ward 4 Councilmember running for mayor, supports giving voting rights to "non-citizens" of the District of Columbia. Guess what, he has lost the support of many black voters, because this is a slap in the face to black U.S. citizens. We had to fight tooth and nail as citizens in this country to get rights we deserved, but ILLEGAL ALIENS don't have any rights, but they do have the ear of these spinless Politicians. We need to secure our borders first by putting the military at both borders. Yes, we need to deport all these protesters back to their countries. Let them protest for change and rights in their countries. I see the fall of the U.S. if this third world invasion continues. Many of our middle class communities have become third world barrios. As citizens, if we speak out against these ILLEGAL ALIENS, then some want to call us racists. IS IT RACIST FOR SOME OF THESE LATINO GROUPS TO TELL BLACKS TO GO BACK TO AFRICA, AND FOR WHITES TO GO BACK TO EUROPE? Yes, my ancestors originated from Africa, but I don't have any allegiance to Africa. My allegiance is to the United States. Yes there is still racism in the U.S. between blacks and whites, but on the issue of ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, I think, this issue has brought both races closer together. As U.S. citizens regardless of race, we must fight for the sovereignty of our country. I don't support amnesty or citizenship to ILLEGAL ALIENS. I too am a Democrat, but I am fed up with the likes of Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, and the Congressional Black Caucus for pandering to ILLEGAL ALIENS. If we don't get a handle on this invasion soon, they will continue to come and have lots of babies. (U.S. citizens) As U.S. citizens, we have a right to protect the interest of our nation. I am sorry for the poverty in El Salvador, Mexico, and other Central American countries, but we have too much poverty here in the United States. Are you aware of how many U.S. citizens still live in poverty in this country? Many white and black citizens are still suffering from last year's Katrina. I am somewhat a liberal on many issues, but after seeing these criminals out protesting and demanding rights, this woke myself and other blacks up. In closing, I must agree with others on here, it will be a Civil War in this country, if we don't get this crisis under control. I SAY, DEPORT THEM, AND SEND THEM ALL HOME.
