Illegal Protest

Apparently the National Council of La Raza’s self-proclaimed “Wave of Hate” Campaign has yet another branch coming now from the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund who has filed a lawsuit with the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights which is part of the Organization of American States.  They are charging that the United States is failing to live up to the group’s declaration on human rights, known as the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man.  The lawsuit cites that violence against Latinos rose 40 percent between 2003 and 2007.

Well I did some research and so far, between 2006 and 2007, using statistics from the FBI Crime Statistic web site - the increase in crimes against Hispanics which were considered bias hate crimes rose by FIVE - not 5% but a total of 5 more of these crimes occurred in 2007 compared to 2006.

I did some further research, and guess what - the percent of crimes against Hispanic, when the total Hispanic population is considered, actually WENT DOWN between 2006 and 2007 and here is how I got there:

Total Hispanic population in 2006      40 million  (1)

Total Hispanic population in 2007       45.5 million (1)

Total hate crimes against Hispanics in 2006         770  (2)

Total hate crimes against Hispanics in 2007         775  (3)

The percentage of crimes within the Hispanic population that can be attributed to hate crimes was .00193% in 2006 and in 2007 it was .00171%.  That’s a DECREASE!  Notice that also LESS THAN 1 PER CENT OF THE HISPANIC POPULATION IN BOTH 2006 AND 2007 HAVE BEEN VICTIMS OF A HATE CRIME BECAUSE OF THEIR ETHNICITY.

Let’s compare that to - hmm.. maybe the Black population shall we?

Without bothering with the percentages except to note that the Black population has been now surpassed by the Hispanic population in this country and it’s around 40 million - let’s look at the numbers of hate crimes against blacks:

2006 Hate Crimes against Blacks                    3136

2007 Hate Crimes against Blacks                     3275

That percentage of hate crimes compared to the population is WAY higher than Hispanics are experiencing.

And I’d like to point out that the habit of obscuring statistics about Hispanics makes it very difficult to tally up these numbers because, in essence, often Hispanics are categorized as part of the WHITE race because they do not consider Hispanic or Latino to be a  RACE but an ETHNICITY.

Here’s some interesting statistics for you.  On the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list - 4 of the 10 are Hispanic -yet the Hispanic population is only 14.5 % of the total US population. So 40 PER CENT of the criminals on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted list are Hispanic taking up a much larger share there than they do in the general population. What gives?   If you also are a frequent viewer of America’s Most Wanted, you might also find that most of the fugitves they chase these days are illegal aliens with Hispanic names.  Also true on the cops shows where they follow the police arresting fugitives. You will find most of the fugitives are Hispanics. Gee there a trend for ya PRLDEF.

Here’s an interesting link I found. The San Francisco DEA’s Most Wanted Fugitives list. Notice there is not ONE non-Hispanic name and face on that list?  Where do I file MY petition that MY GOVERNMENT IS NOT PROTECTING ME AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN FROM THESE CRIMINAL HISPANICS?  In fact, go to the main page and see that click on ANY state you will see that in EVERY STATE the DEA fugitives are HISPANIC. What is wrong with this picture????  And if you really want to see how the White/Hispanic statistics are SO SKEWED just click on some of the offenders and it clearly states Place of Birth is MEXICO yet their race is WHITE. HUH? So next time you see WHITE crime statistics realize that a LARGE PORTION OF WHITE CRIME IS FROM ILLEGAL ALIEN HISPANICS WHO ARE LISTED AS WHITE.

So let’s take a look at this  Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man as it pertains to the protection and rights of the legal American citizen. And notice - all of these “rights” do not mention who is going to PAY for these services and things humans have a “right” to.

Right to leisure time and to the use thereof.

On an unrelated topic - I notice this “Declaration of Rights” does not include the “right to marry”. Tell that to the Prop 8 haters.

So.. now we are hearing the liberal left (aka New Democrat Network) claim that Republicans lost because they “demonized” Hispanics and they failed to address the Hispanic vote’s immigration concerns.  What a load of crap!     The truth is - the Republicans have lost their base BECAUSE of their support of illegal aliens and their turning of a blind eye to businesses that hire them. They have lost their base because they have PANDERED to the likes of the National Council of La Ratza.

Simon Rosenberg, president and CEO of NDN – formerly the New Democrat Network — said that Republicans are now “paying a steep price for demonizing Hispanics” in their “anti-immigration rhetoric” – rhetoric that he said created the “fear of losing jobs to undocumented immigrants of Americans.”

And let me just state in no uncertain terms here - that THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A HOMOGENOUS HISPANIC VOTE.  Being Hispanic does NOT make you a liberal or someone who supports the National Council of La Raza. They like to try to portray “the Hispanic vote” as if it IS homogenous and nothing could be more of an outright LIE than this.

I can tell you as a former Republican that I switched my affiliation to Independent because of Republicans like John Kyl and John McCain who are nothing but conservative turncoats who only deserve my utmost conservative CONTEMPT.  John Kyl ran his re-election campaign on border security and attacked his opponent because of his support for amnesty for illegal aliens. Then after he was elected, he became McCain’s buddy and tried to convince more Republicans to vote for the Shamnesty 2006 bill piece of crap legislation…  It is liars like these that we need to toss out on their asses from office.  The Republican party is just chock full of liars like these.. but so is the Democratic party.

Let me just point out activist groups such as You Don’t Speak for Me - a group of HISPANICS  who are working AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.  Does the National Council of La Raza consider their voices?

To the complete contrary - John McCain was actually PROVEN to support AMNESTY for ILLEGAL ALIENS  so.. if the “Hispanic vote” cared about amnesty - why did they NOT support John McCain?  It seems the TRUTH is that by supporting amnesty, John McCain actually LOST Hispanic support.  Even Ruben Navarette Jr - the fully pro-illegal commentator - expresses concern after the election that Barry Hussein Obama was not a friend to amnesty supporters.

Yet when it comes to immigration, Obama will have trouble keeping his promise of comprehensive reform from last summer. He will probably toss Latino supporters a bone by stopping construction of the border fence that he voted for in the Senate and ending the workplace raids that have caused so much disgust in the Latino community.

But nothing else. And if Latinos are paying attention and holding the new president to account, they’ll know they’ve been used. And, if honest with themselves, they’ll have something else to be disgusted about.

So this again proves that being Hispanic does not mean you think only the way the National Council of La Raza wants you to think. Even in the Hispanic community, support for Obama or McCain was divided.

And that is because - both were ignoring the issue of Immigration and Illegal Immigration during the campaign. It was the elephant in the room and continues to be.  The ONLY Presidential candidate who we KNEW FOR A FACT SUPPORTED AMNESTY WAS JOHN MCCAIN. We knew that because of his crafting of amnesty legislation with his buddy across the aisle Ted Kennedy.

YET even in the face of that overwhelming evidence that McCain was PRO-AMNESTY,  he failed to corner “the Hispanic vote”.  And that is because being Hispanic does not mean you support amnesty or you think in one way.

Of course if you take the BLACK vote you can see that the color of your skin sometimes DOES make a group think in a particular way.  Some 97% of  Black voters chose Barry Hussein Obama - what percentage of those voters actually knew ANYTHING about Barry Hussein Obama?  I’ll take a wild guess.. maybe 3%?

 And exit polls taken after voting ended showed an overwhelming support for Democrat Barack Obama among black voters, with close to 100 per cent in some states such as Florida (98 per cent) and Georgia (97 per cent).

Gee it sure is good to know there’s no more racism in the United States… NOT!

Back to Hispanic voters… and these “policy groups” that are nothing more than the propaganda arm of  the radical liberal left wing. This is the latest BS they want Americans to swallow:

David Mermin, a partner at Lake Research Partners, a national public opinion and political strategy research firm hired by La Raza to study American voters, said 62 percent of American voters are now “more interested in converting illegal immigrants into legal taxpayers than deporting them because they might be taking jobs.”

Gee nobody asked me to participate in this survey and I suspect they didn’t ask anyone who is like me. If they did, they would not be able to claim such idiotic things like “Americans are more interested in converting illegal aliens into legal taxpayers”… Was he asleep during the BACKLASH of June 2006 when Americans overwhelmingly shut down the phone lines at the Capitol to STOP SHAMNESTY?

Before anyone takes David Mermin or Lake Research Partners as some kind of non-partisan polling outfit, consider that by their own description they are a DEMOCRATIC POLLING GROUP as can be seen here in their “About President Celinda Lake” page:

Since its formation, Lake Research Partners has become one of the most respected Democratic polling firms in the country, with its Battleground poll widely recognized as one of the leading national issue and election thermometers. The firm’s work has moved the progressive agenda forward on a variety of issues

Funny how the obvious propaganda piece from The National Council of La Raza FAILS TO MENTION THAT LAKE RESEARCH IS TOTALLY IN THE TANK FOR DEMOCRATS AND “PROGRESSIVES”.

Another reference to their bias here:

Lake Research Partners is a national public opinion and political strategy research firm. Our principals are among the Democratic Party’s leading strategists, serving as tacticians and senior advisors to dozens of incumbents and challengers at all levels of the electoral process, as well as to a wide range of advocacy organizations, non-profit organizations, and foundations.

We are proud to do work for a number of outstanding clients, including: the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the Democratic Governor’s Association (DGA), AFL-CIO, SEIU, CWA, IAFF, Sierra Club, Planned Parenthood, Human Rights Campaign, Emily’s List and the Kaiser Foundation.

One of our most newsworthy projects is our Battlegound Poll, which we conduct with our partners at the Tarrance Group. Together, we survey the year’s political landscape and point out critical issues that Washington can’t afford to ignore.

Apparently their polling is only too happy to IGNORE your input however…

So if this isn’t enought evidence to throw the top people from ACORN into prison and recall ALL of their phony registrations in EVERY state I don’t know what else is?  How much more are Americans supposed to take of this OUTRIGHT FRAUD by a group that proclaims on it’s website that “ACORN takes no government funding so they can remain objective (LIE) and ACORN is non-partisan (LIE)“.

Teenager: I Registered To Vote 73 Times

Ohio ACORN Lands In Hot Water

 A Cleveland teenager who claims he registered to vote 73 times over a five-month period has set of alarm bells among election officials in Ohio’s most populous county.

The bipartisan Cuyahoga County Board of Elections in Cleveland voted unanimously Monday to ask Prosecutor Bill Mason to investigate multiple registrations by four people, including 19-year-old Freddie Johnson.

All four said they signed forms at the behest of a community organizing group, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform, known as ACORN.

Johnson said he was trying to help paid ACORN solicitors collect signed registrations. He said he has not voted, and said he filled out the cards because he was given cigarettes and about $20.

…

The fracas is the latest round in a battle over ACORN’s impact on voter registration this year. The group says it has signed up 1.3 million poor and working-class voters in a mass registration drive in 18 states this year.

In Pennsylavania, the district attorney for the Pittsburgh area is investigating possible forgery and other irregularities on voter registration forms turned in by ACORN.

Mike Manko, a spokesman for the Allegheny County district attorney, said fewer than 100 registration forms were apparently forged or otherwise illegitimate.

ACORN issued a statement Friday dismissing the fraud allegations in Pennsylvania as an attempt by a relatively small group of political operatives “to orchestrate hysteria about ‘voter fraud.’”

Oh really? Well I’ll tell you what ACORN - I am HYSTERICAL about YOUR GROUP being ANYWHERE NEAR THE VOTER REGISTRATION PROCESS EVER AGAIN IN YOUR LIFETIMES.

Obama and two other lawyers in 1995 represented ACORN in a lawsuit against the state of Illinois to make voter registration easier. During this year’s primary, Obama hired a firm with ties to the group for a massive get-out-the-vote effort.

The surge in new voters helped propel Obama to his party’s presidential nomination, and it may carry over to the general election — 9 million newly registered voters who are overwhelmingly Democratic could add up to a big victory on Election Day.

In states where registration is recorded by party, including eight key states that could decide the election, voters have signed up Democratic in the past six months by a margin of nearly 4-1.

However, simply registering voters, even when the numbers are skewed so heavily toward one party, is no guarantee of success.

Historically, voter turnout among new registrants has been low. And while candidates have months to run registration drives, they have only a tiny window — several days during early balloting, just hours on Election Day — to get out the vote.

Still, an Associated Press analysis of registration data found that if the millions of newly registered voters turn out at the same rate as in 2004 and cast ballots with their declared party of choice, Obama could have the votes he needs to wrest several battleground states away from the Republican Party and its nominee, Sen. John McCain.

This should concern EVERY American - not just the Republicans.  These people have stepped on and besmirched the precious right to vote for cigarettes and $20. How very sad that our country has come to this.

Ok as if the bailout in general isn’t bad enough, apparently there are some EARMARKS in there which is congressional code for FAVORS that specifies that The National Council of LA RAZA, ACORN and other groups that benefit only “people of color” will be FIRST IN LINE to get any profits made on this “investment” in the failed banks that chose to lend to subprime lenders. The kicker is - it is THESE SAME GOUPS who lobbied to give mortgages to these high risk borrowers in the first place and they got OUR MONEY to make that happen - to the tune of millions of dollars in “Federal Housing” grants.  So these same groups who pushed mortgage lenders to lend money to people BECAUSE OF THEIR RACE which is in itself a VIOLATION OF THE FAIR HOUSING ACT - now that these subprime mortgages have bankrupted those Institutions, these same groups are going to benefit from OUR TAX MONEY ONCE AGAIN.

You need to call your congress rats NOW and DEMAND TO REMOVE THIS EARMARK. Not only that but you need to DEMAND THAT THEY PUT OVERSIGHT INTO THE BAILOUT, THEY ARREST THE EXECUTIVES WHO CAUSED THE FAILURE INSTEAD OF GIVING THEM MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN REWARDS!

Read more over at Digger’s Realm here and watch the video below if you want to see exactly how we are yet again being stabbed in the back by the people we elected to represent us. It’s outrageous!  It’s disgusting!  It’s time for another TEA PARTY FOLKS!

Not only that but here’s another interesting detail you won’t hear on CNN about this bailout - from ARRA:

Open Secrets reveals the investment made by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in Democrats and details the Top 25 Democrat Recipients of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac contributions in 1989-2008. The top three in order were Senators Christopher Dodd, John Kerry and Barack Obama.

This is an outrage even more serious than the 2006 Amnesty attempt. These politicians are intent on breaking the backs of the American people and pushing the agendas of the leftists, the socialists, the illegal aliens and the Communists. In this blogger’s opinion, they ALL need to be looking for new jobs and I will just vote out the incumbent in the next election ACROSS THE BOARD down to the local level. They have ALL FAILED US AND THE PARTY IS OVER.
