The hate behind 287g -- this time in North Carolina; Old Times in South are not forgotten

It is easy to see why Mrs. Juana Villegas (DeLaPaz) was tortured by Nashville law enforcement authorities for six days in July under the 287g deportation program.

The following story from The News&Observer in North Carolina is indicative of the kind of hate we're dealing with here and across the nation, particularly in the South. The New South is old once again. And the story is the reason why 287g must be prominently mentioned and confronted, because hate grows stronger when the children of the light become more silent and cowardly.

Hispanic leaders fear for safety
Ugly side of debate emerges in threats


Activist Andrea Bazán was so scared by threats that she sent her children to stay with her ex-husband.

For North Carolina's Hispanic leaders, the biggest hazards of the job were once long hours. Now, they include death threats.
A pair of the state's most prominent advocates, Andrea Bazán and Tony Asion, say that for the past several months, each time they have spoken publicly, they have gotten a raft of profanity-laced messages, some of them exhorting them to return to their home countries and others denigrating Hispanics. Several legislators say they have also gotten messages recently that cross the line into racism, and one got a menacing voice mail.

Threats of violence are becoming common enough that Bazán, president of the philanthropic Triangle Community Foundation, has requested protection at some public appearances. Asion, director of the Raleigh Hispanic advocacy group El Pueblo and a former police officer, said he has received two handwritten death threats at his office since May.

"This is not about immigration," Bazán said. "This is not about debating policy. This has moved on to another sphere. This is hate."

Bazán and others say they've gotten disturbing hate mail before. A 2005 effort to give in-state tuition to illegal immigrants brought reams of it, but that furor died down fairly quickly. Now, they say, threats and racist messages are becoming routine.

State legislators who supported a bill this year that would have guaranteed illegal immigrants the right to attend state colleges got a raft of messages, some of which smeared immigrants.

Rep. Pricey Harrison, a Greensboro Democrat who sponsored the bill, said she received one phone message warning that "my days are numbered." She said the message, which included profane insults, felt like a threat.

"I have not seen anything like what illegal immigration elicits," Harrison said. "It's revealing a very ugly side of humanity that I've never seen before."

It most certainly is about hate and racism. The Mexicans and others who come to this nation illegally have much hatred and contempt for Americans and our laws.

They brazenly and disrespectfully wave their Mexican flags in our faces and tell us what rights they have in OUR country.

If someone went illegally into Mexico what would happen to that person?

Doesn't Mexico do everything it can to prevent South Americans from entering it even though those South Americans are merely coming THRU Mexico so they can enter the United States illegally.

Newspapers work with politicians to support globalism. Newspapers are owned by the same globalists who control our government and who are forcing Globalism and The New World Order off on us so of course they use every weapon at their disposal to champion bringing cheap labor into our country at the same time they sell off American industry to foreigners and outsource our jobs and bring in cheap illegal labor.

Jacob Javits accused our Congress of being racist too when they wanted to protect America. Accusations of racism are a weapon used against Americans so that minorities can move in and take over.

The Jews did it with their brains but these other people will do it because they breed like flies and they can overwhelm us with their sheer numbers.

If an enemy soldier invaded the United States we would have a right to defend ourselves and use violence. When those who are supposed to be representing us fail to do so and fail to protect the United States from those who are invading it by coming across our borders illegally then we have a right to defend ourselves in any and every way.

It is the responsibility of those who are here illegally to protect their own lives by obeying our laws. They should not be here. If they die then it is their own fault. We have every right to defend ourselves and our way of life and to expect others to respect our laws.

Stop being racist against Americans.
