| Is An Illegal Immigrant's Life Less Important Than the Football Players Who Murdered Him? | | 2008-08-18 20:48:19 | | KILLING LUIS RAMIREZ There are still anti-immigration conservatives who are blaming Luis Ramirez for being here in the US illegally. That's the real reason he was murdered. He forced a handful of innocent high school football heroes to kill him because he was an illegal immigrant. It's like the rape case of Cheryl Araujo. She was asking for it. "...On March 6, 1983, after putting her two daughters to sleep following the older daughter's third birthday party, Araujo left her home to buy cigarettes. The store she usually purchased from was closed, so she stopped at Big Dan's ...... | | By: The Pink Flamingo | | |

| Immigrant Arrested 128x, Gets Daily Ride Home from BP | | 2008-05-03 13:07:37 | | Tell me what other country in the world is so accommodating that it gives its multiple offenders rides back home across the border after they’ve been arrested, day after day, without prosecuting them. Then tell me again that the United States is a cold and heartless country, the bully and jock of the world.

| Cameron slaps down Boris over illegal immigrant amnesty remark | | 2008-04-07 05:17:44 | | David Cameron has weighed in to the London Mayoral contest by effectively trying to silence Boris Johnson, the Conservative contender, on matters of immigration. Johnson said that he thought it would benefit the capital if illegal migrants were offered a one-off pardon. Cameron thinks this would just let others think they can come into the country illegally leading to demands for further amnesties.Both sides have a point. The truth is, though, that we don't have total control over immigration now that the EU gets its 90 cents worth of nose-poking into the issue. Immigrants are required for our economy, because a lot of people won't work in the places and for the pay that the migrants are prepared to. The government is going some way to relieving the problem of unabated, unregulated immigration.However, the Conservatives need to get to grips on this too. All the while that the government of the day knows little of the numbers here, then it feeds into the electoral success box of the BNP... | | By: A View from Middle England by Arden Forester | | |

| Are you smarter than an illegal immigrant? | | 2008-03-05 17:02:20 | | The folks at the US Citizenship and Immigration Services have devised a new citizenship test for those few illegal immigrants who, for some unknown reason, are actually trying to become lawful citizens. The new questions, the USCIS claims, are calculated to better measure how well newbies understand what it means to be an American rather than how well they can memorize answers. Of course, most libertarians are convinced that most natural born citizens don't know what it really means to be an American either.

| Culturally Contested Pedagogy: Battles Of Literacy And Schooling Between Mainstream Teachers And Asian Immigrant Parents | | 2007-08-12 08:49:00 | | Author: Guofang LiPaperback: 265 pagesPublisher: State University of New York Press (November 2005)Language: EnglishISBN: 0791465934(R)The voices of teachers, parents, and students create a compelling ethnographic study that examines the debate between traditional and progressive pedagogies in literacy education and the mismatch of cross-cultural discourses between mainstream schools and Asian families. This book focuses on a Vancouver suburb where the Chinese population has surpassed the white community numerically and socioeconomically, but not politically, and where the author uncovers disturbing cultural conflicts, educational dissensions, and "silent" power struggles between school and home. What Guofang Li reveals illustrates the challenges of teaching and learning in an increasingly complex educational landscape in which literacy, culture, race, and social class intertwine. Advocating for a greater cultural understanding of minority beliefs in literacy education and a more ... | | By: GanEden For Books | | |

| Problems with the Illegal Immigrant Amnesty Bill | | 2007-05-23 01:35:10 | | I disagree with this bill for a few reasons:
-it gives amnesty to criminals
-it allows current illegals to bring over more family later
-it allows the illegals to collect welfare which they will do when they realize working for minimum wage isn’t going to support their 10 person family
-it drives down wages for hardworking Americans

| Illegal immigrant law in Dallas suburb blocked | | 2007-05-22 03:38:23 | |
FARMERS BRANCH — A federal judge today halted enforcement of a voter-endorsed ordinance preventing apartment rentals to most illegal immigrants, a day before the ban was to take effect in this Dallas suburb.
U.S. District Judge Sam A. Lindsay wrote in granting a temporary restraining order that only the federal government can determine whether a person is in the United States legally.
Instead of deferring to federal officials, Farmers Branch has created its own classification to determine which noncitizens may rent an apartment, the judge ruled, also noting that the city appeared to have borrowed from federal housing regulations to define who may lease in the suburb.
“The court recognizes that illegal immigration is a major problem in this country, and one who asserts otherwise ignores reality,” Lindsay wrote. “The court also fully understands the frustration of cities attempting to address a national problem that the federal government should handle; however, such... | | By: TexasFred's | | |

| Generation 1.5 and Immigrant Fathers | | 2007-03-24 06:19:00 | | Generation 1.5 and Immigrant FathersThis explains a lot about the problems I've had with my father over the years.Conflict between immigrant fathers and daughters raised in America is inevitable. The father who used to benefit from being the unchallenged head of the household is now confronted with a culture that insists on free thinking and speaking up.... Asian fathers may feel threatened when their daughters begin to think for themselves and make decisions that reflect their "freedom and self-determination." Disagreeing with one's father is seen as disrespect and an upset of the balance of power. A daughter's desire for autonomy can make a father feel useless or passed over. In my family, any attempts to question my father's reasoning or opinions were seen as mutiny.... My father's love was action-oriented. He showed his love for me by his investment in my education. In grade school it was not enough to get homework from my teachers; he would supplement that with his own homewo... | | By: DawnXianaMoon.com: Randomness | | |
