Chapter Two
Wake Up, America;
Time
Is Running Out
On December 4, 2004, T.J. Bonner,
president of the National Border Patrol Council, representing 10,000 U.S.
border agents, made an alarming statement at a national conference of
immigration experts near Washington, D.C.:
“Today, as we sit here, and every other day,
10,000 — that’s thousand — 10,000 illegal aliens will cross our border.
The United States Border Patrol will catch about 3,000 of those people….
We are in the midst of an unprecedented crisis.”
Just four weeks later, in January 2005,
Wall Street investment firm Bear Stearns
published an equally startling report by business analysts Robert and Ng, titled
The Underground Labor Force Is Rising To The Surface. Justich and Ng
state that there are about 20 million illegal aliens in the U.S. today. They
estimate that illegal aliens hold between 12 million and 15 million jobs in
the U.S., representing about 8 percent of the current labor force. Since
1990, according to the report, between four million and six million U.S.
jobs have shifted from the legal work force to the underground economy as
employers have methodically replaced American workers with lower-wage
illegal labor subsidized by taxpayers.

Chapter Three
The Real Victims
of Mass Immigration
Mass immigration is harming countless American
citizens and America itself. Sounds like a big story for the news media, one
they should be covering regularly. But do you see many stories about this in
newspapers or on the local or network broadcast news? With a few notable
exceptions, the mainstream media ignore the momentous changes inflicted byborders.
Where are the stories about the incalculable number
of Americans having lost jobs to illegal aliens and legal immigrants?
Where are the stories about the Americans injured,
raped, and killed by illegal aliens, or citizens suffering from the diseases
illegals bring with them?
Where are the stories showing the spiraling health
care costs illegal aliens are imposing upon U.S. taxpayers?
Where are the stories about American children stuffed
into crowded schools with illegal aliens and legal immigrants and forced
into “bilingual” classrooms?
Where are the stories about the millions of illegal
aliens and legal immigrants causing home prices to skyrocket, creating
massive sprawl, and congestion, and straining precious natural resources?
After President
Bush and Democratic Party leaders
announced in January 2004 their respective “guest-worker” proposals that
wouldthe door to an unlimited number of foreign workers, where were
the stories in the mainstream media about how these plans would impact
Americans? Where were the stories about any of these serious immigration
issues in the months leading up to the 2004 general election?

Chapter Seven
Barbara Coe
“MEChA’s goals are to re-conquer all of the
Southwestern states and reclaim that land for Mexico as the Nation of
Aztlan,” Coe explains. “Their next goal is to control our entire
government and wield the power necessary for unrestricted immigration from
Mexico and ensure the immigrants’ needs are fully subsidized by billions
of U.S. citizen tax dollars. Those goals are well defined in the plan to
promote Aztlan, which was activated in January 1995 at the U.C. Riverside
Latino conference.”
*****
Armando Navarro, U.C. Riverside professor:
“We’re in a state of transition. And that
transformation is called the browning of America. Latinos are now becoming
the majority…. It’s a game; it’s a game of power and who controls it…. You
are like the generals that command armies. We’re in a state of war. This
Proposition 187 is a declaration of war against the Latino/Chicano
community of this country.”
Art Torres, former California state senator
and current chairman of the California Democratic Party:
“Que viva la causa [long live our cause]. It
is an honor to be with the new leadership of the Americas…. Power is not
given to you. You have to take it. Remember, 187 is the last gasp of white
America in California. Understand that. And people say to me on the Senate
floor when I was in the Senate, ‘Why do you fight so hard for affirmative
action programs?’ And I tell my white colleagues, ‘Because you’re going to
need them.’” (Laughter.)
Henry Cisneros, former secretary of Housing
and Urban Development in the Clinton administration, former president of
Univision (Spanish language television), former mayor of San Antonio, who
now builds homes in Hispanic markets:
“The future of our people and the future of
our country is literally in your hands. Our numbers are growing
dramatically…. I’m saying to you as goes the Latino population will go
California, and as goes California will go the United States of America.
My friends, the stakes are big; this is a fight worth making…. We should
stand for the proud Latino future. We must stand for the people, now more
than ever, and then be prepared to fight.”

Chapter Nine
Tom Tancredo
In the past several decades, Tancredo explained,
America’s schools, the popular media, and even the churches have said there
is nothing of value in Western Civilization or America. They have preached
the doctrine of “radical
multiculturalism.” He is not referring to the idea that Americans should
accept and appreciate the many different cultures that enrich our lives and
our nation. Tancredo is referring to what he calls the “cult of
multiculturalism,” which has as its goal the elimination of the concept of
America as a nation state.
He said the multiculturalists also encourage
immigrants to refrain from integrating into the American mainstream.
Instead, immigrants are urged to retain their native languages and cultures
and even their political connections to their countries of origin.
“This is
what’s worrisome,” he told the gathering and tells people wherever he goes.
“I believe that massive legal and illegal immigration combined with
multiculturalism represents the greatest danger this country has ever faced.
It will eventually determine not just what kind of a nation we are in the
future; it will determine whether we will be a nation at all. This is the
dagger pointed at the heart of America.”

Chapter Ten
Jim Gilchrist, Chris Simcox,
and the Minutemen
On October 15 in Arlington Heights, Illinois, about one hundred Minuteman
supporters from that state and others attended the first summit of the Chicago
Minuteman Project. They heard speakers discuss securing the borders and reducing
legal immigration.
Hundreds of protesters rallied outside the school where the
meeting was held. One demonstrator’s sign read: “The Minutemen Used to Wear
White Sheets.”
A “small but belligerent group of self-described anarchists”
blocked the entrance to the school, the Chicago Tribune reported. Five
protestors were arrested for assaulting police officers.
Rosanna Pulido, co-founder of the Chicago
Minuteman Project and the granddaughter of Mexican immigrants, said several
attendees did not enter the building because they feared for their safety.
“It’s disappointing
that people here could not exercise their First Amendment rights,” Pulido
said.
On October 30, the
California Minuteman chapter held a “Secure Our Borders” rally on the
steps of the state capitol building in Sacramento. The rally drew about two
hundred supporters and an estimated six hundred counter-demonstrators from “immigrant-rights
groups.”
Among the speakers
were Jim Gilchrist; Tim Donnelly, leader of the California Minuteman
chapter; Lupe Moreno, president of Latino Americans for Immigration Reform;
and Frank George, a naturalized Cuban immigrant and spokesman for the Texas
Minutemen.
Counter-protestors
included Nativo Lopez, president of the Mexican American Political
Association, and Peter Camejo, former Green Party candidate for California
governor.
“We believe in no borders,” said
counter-demonstrator Tomas Alejo. “A lot of humans are migrating not because
they want to, but because they need to. We deny what the Minutemen are
about.”
Three counter-demonstrators were arrested,
including one for kicking a California Highway Patrol officer in the stomach,
then attacking a city officer with pepper spray.
“Their intent is to trample our Constitution,”
Gilchrist declared. “Their goal is not our domestic tranquility, it is our
destruction. If it’s a war the anarchists want, then damn it, it will start
here.”

Chapter Twelve
Bush
and Other Elites Merging
U.S., Mexico, and Canada
For many years, Americans have demanded our federal officials do their job
and defend against a foreign invasion entering through our nation’s
borders, the seriousness of which was intensified a thousand-fold with the
terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
Throughout the accelerating process, Americans have been dumbfounded that
our government won’t police our borders. Why, why, why? has been the
question in a million patriot minds.
Now we know the answer, which became perfectly clear in the spring of 2005,
except most Americans don’t know about it.borders and illegal
immigration are part of a larger scheme to discard American sovereignty in
favor of a regional government, a plan to which President Bush has already
agreed to privately, but with little explanation of what’s really happening.

Epilogue
My 'Vacation' with the FBI
Challenges were expected in writing this book.
However, becoming the focus of a multi-state
national security investigation reaching “the highest levels of government”
was not one of them. Due to factors I still don’t completely understand, I was
questioned about letters sent to the FBI warning of possible biological and
suitcase-sized nuclear weapons near the July 2004 site in Boston and in other states.
You read that correctly.
Coincidental circumstances surrounding my visit with
extended family in Binghamton, New York, that month somehow led to this very
unpleasant ordeal. I’m recounting the experience in this book because what
happened to me relates to the illegal-alien invasion, massive immigration, and
the “war on terror.”
