Of the millions of illegal's who do cross the Mexican border, it is probably around 1% who are legitimately seeking work. It's a sad fact that the majority, ruin it for the few honest people.

The majority, are criminals, crossing our border to deliver drugs and many a border patrol agent has died for the cause. Knowing that hundreds of Mexican nationals, don't even have to move to our side of the border, in order to collect welfare, social security checks, disability checks and even unemployment insurance.

This happens, the first of every month, in a southern California town. The post office is so busy, and rents out so many mail boxes to these people, that some years ago it had to build a larger post office with more boxes to rent. Guess who paid for that new building. That's right - your tax dollars at work.

Hundreds of pregnant women, every year, cross the border under the guise of seeking work, only to give birth in one of our hospitals at our expense.

From my own personal experience, I can tell you that at least one elementary school, in Phoenix, is all Spanish speaking. There is no place for a non-Mexican who does not speak Spanish. The personnel have no fear in letting the gringos know, they are not welcome. Again, who pays for that school?

Also from my own personal experience, I can tell you there are sections of Phoenix, where the police don't even bother to patrol. Those areas are rampant with gun fire and loud parties with Mexican bands. This is happening in a family neighborhood.

And when my daughter was side-swiped by an illegal, driving an uninsured car, the police never bothered to answer the call. The other driver ran. My daughter waited for the police for over an hour, gave up and drove home. This is life, in particular areas of Phoenix.

Tell me, we have no problems with the illegal Mexicans and I'll show you someone who lives in Michigan. It is not the Mexican, that is the problem, it is those who cross the border illegally and bring their filth with them, their uncivil attitudes, their guns and drugs and come only for what they can steal. It is those who come by the hundreds, take over an entire neighborhood and push the legal citizen out of their own schools and hospitals.

This, is definitely a problem. Those who squeal that we are prejudice and unfair are those who make profits from the legitimate illegal workers. It means money to them and naturally, they come against our attitudes toward the illegals.

I stand behind our border patrol and against those who would have us continue to support this sort. Live one week among these people, who have overtaken a neighborhood, and you will agree with me.
