1. These people are the best argument for...
...the production of soylent green if there ever was one. It would be the only positive contribution they could make to society.

2. "We support immigrants."
Naui doesn't support immigrants, Naui supports racism, open border, colonization, violence, and overthrow of the US government.... all behind his special take on reality. He's a lying piece of shit. VRON is a very nice person, and means well, but like others of her cause, she cannot explain what will happen in the logical fulfillment of her mission, ie the impact of scores of millions of immigrants from all over the world when there is no US border slowing the migration.

5. One thing VRON needs is a directional microphone
The video sucked and the sound was worse. At the end of the vid I had no idea what the hell was going on except for idiot Freeper looking yahoos strutting around and some guy shouting "off with their heads" over and over again on a microphone somewhere.

One thing that you can be sure of at events like this, the people that love the sound of their own voice inevitably get ahold of a microphone. From that point on it is just a hilarious display of idiocy and self-absorbed nonsense. It is as true as the sun rising in the East.

3. I couldn't watch the video on my computer, and, frankly, I don't want to.
I used to live in Corona. The INS killed people who were suspected of being illegal immigrants. More than once, groups of people. Natural-born US citizens were killed by the INF, because they had brown skin and black hair-- they never even got close enough to tell whether they spoke English. Children were killed by the INF, because they had brown skin and black hair. Groups of children, who were born here and went to school here.

Fuck with "protecting the border." You can get away with any kind of tyranny and murder, apparently, if you couch it in patriotic terms.

4. That's a serious charge! Any evidence to back it?
The US Government killing US citizens, including children? Was that recent?

7. It's a while back. I'm not sure, but call it 15-20 years ago.
The INS chased down a truck full of teenagers near the "border" checkpoint in Temecula, which is actually about 100 miles north of the border. The teenagers panicked, as any teenagers do when they're pursued by law enforcement. The truck rolled, and they were all killed.

The local paper, in which this was reported, was "The Press-Enterprise." There was some brief local outrage, but, long-term, the attitude was that it didn't matter that much, since the kids were Latino.

9. Holy Crap - what a stretch!!!
The teenagers were NOT killed by the INS because the had dark skin and hair, from what you are now telling us, the teens died in an accident that was entirely their own fault. They may have been innocent, but their deaths are not the fault of the INS. End of story.

I knew that your original comment seemed off some how. The INS killing citizens would have spurred press coverage similar to Waco or Ruby Ridge.

I don't know anything about you as a DUer, but this recent post of yours was irresponsible and false. You do nothing to support your cause when you lie.

6. Bette Noir, I'd like to know more about these killings, too. Surely you have more than
just these comments.

10. Thank you for the reply Bette Noir, but I agree that your accusations of murder are
not backed up by the tragic incident you cited. You might want to tone down the rhetoric or provide some examples that prove your point. Hysterical accusations do nothing to help an already bad situation.
