"Declaration of Los Angeles" (city council-approved pro-illegal immigration resolution)

The Anti-Defamation League, their Latino-Jewish Roundtable, and several other groups have convinced the Los Angeles City Council to sign the "Declaration of Los Angeles", a far-left resolution that claims to support human rights for "immigrants", but which is little more than a resolution in support of illegal immigration, couched in the expected doublespeak. Next year they're going to try to get the California legislature to sign on, and the Mexican partisans in that body will probably trip over themselves to comply.

The press release quotes Amanda Susskind, Director of the ADL Pacific Southwest Region:

"At this particularly volatile time in our country's history, we find it of utmost importance to unite against hatred and victimization aimed at many people who migrate to this country. Without negating the need for safe and secure borders, nor aligning ourselves with partisan politics on the issue, the ADL stands strong in the desire to support basic human rights and fair treatment of immigrants."

There certainly is some "hatred and victimization" of all types of immigrants, yet as their history shows the ADL is willing to smear those who simply support our laws of engaging in those practices. And, of course, "migrate" is a bit close to the Mexican government's favorite euphemism for illegal immigration, "migration". And, of course, their "fair treatment" - based on their past statements - is "comprehensive immigration reform".

According to the release, the Declaration also condemns "xenophobic rhetoric... especially about Latino immigration". As above, their definition of "xenophobia" is what others call "opposition to massive illegal immigration". They also oppose "vigilante civilian patrol groups creating the potential for violence and an atmosphere of fear and lawlessness", a truly Orwellian phrase considering the massive lawlessness and political corruption associated with what the ADL supports.

The doublespeak continues:

The Declaration calls upon local, state and federal government officials to: recognize and protect the basic human rights of immigrants, support humane treatment of undocumented persons, publicly denounce xenophobia, monitor and respond to extremists groups that advocate bigotry or racism, hold to the highest standards of human rights and dignity all law enforcement and judicial processes that relate to deportation, detention and immigration status, and recognize the need for a safe and secure United States.

Of course, the government monitoring and responding to groups that abide by the laws is a truly fascistic idea, but no one ever said the other side were nice people. And, the implication that the DHS is not dealing with "undocumented persons" (illegal aliens) humanely is meant to chill attempts at enforcing our immigration laws.

In brief, their position - and the one now taken by the Los Angeles City Council - is only a slightly cleaned-up version of that that one might expect from the Mexican government.

Where is the African American contribution to this drivel??? They don't even consider us human but want to cash in on the blood sweat and tears of the 60's.

This is another nail in the coffin of the middle class without solving the mystery of "why are they doing this?" We know that politicians do what they do for the perks. We know that getting re-elected is what they are all about and the standard by which they consider legislation and "declarations" such as this McCarthy-laden document. This council actually stepped out of its citizenship to rubber stamp their support of overthrowing law and order in Los Angeles and siding with the Mexican government in continuing efforts to populate the state with a majority of ILLEGAL aliens. Explain that. Just try. Is there blackmail at play here? What does Mexico have on these people? How long has MALDEF been investigating these people? How else to explain what in earlier times would have been termed treason? Imagine an elected board signing off on a document that denigrates and literally puts a target on the back of heroic Americans belonging to American institutions such as Save Our State and the Minuteman Project. And notice that the major African American institutions such as the NAACP and major black leaders are not listed as supporters. Why? Because they know and understand what the illegal taking of American jobs has done and continues to do to the young black male. Immigration is at the heart of America's greatness. Illegal "immigration" will soon be come to be known as the beginning of the end of America's greatness and the dissolution of the American middle class. Soon to go, thanks to the LA City Council and California State Legistators, will be Prop 13 protections on citizen owned property. This is a planned assault and Americans had better get mad and fast. Throw the Socialists out!

American law enforcement is already the most humane on the planet. You fence jumpers remember what it was like in those mexican jails, don't you? We will continue our high standards regardless of race, creed or color, as your criminal behinds are sent home humanely in handcuffs. Stay there, next time. This country is NOT yours.
