You and others seem to forget CA as well as most of western USA was Mexico long before it was USA - don't knock these folks who want to better themselves and their families living conditions - till you have lived where they come from you have no right to knock them. Hard work is all they know - not welfare. If they are working for cash they are paying taxs too - sales tax, the property they rent has taxes paid by the owner from their rent.
Who is on the street corners, parking lots of hardware store looking for work as day laborers - not the whites & blacks - who is working in the fields, orchards & vineyards/ again not the blacks or white unless they are on a tractor or in a truck?

The description of San Francisco is so off it does not even warrant a comment.

That is what I saw in San Fran. And, the expensive restaurants suck!

Harvey, you are woefully misinformed and are just repeating "talking points" for the radicals that want to promote open borders for the entire country. It is always such an "emotional, tear-jerking cause." The libs deal only in "emotions" not facts, or proven results.

Those people are "invaders" that have come to take your State and your benefits, and all your tax money they can.
They would be dealt with harshly in any other country!

Amazing how some people see an invasion from another country as a good thing! You need to do some research and see how they monopolize your benefits, benefits meant for Americans. There are only so many benefits to go around and every illegal crossing into your State decrease the amount available to real Americans. They fill our schools, hospitals, and all are on medicaid and as many welfare programs as possible (that your money is paying for.)

One guy was proud to tell me that his twins premature birth cost Three Million Dollars in healthcare. This is only ONE family, They don't pay taxes, never have and never will. Neither do the rest of the illegals. And, don't tell me about how they pay taxes because they pay "Sales tax!" How lame can you get.

Foreigners are not paying income taxes like the rest of us, they are here to take, not assimilate or contribute. Ask them, they will tell you exactly what they want. They want your State. And, no it doesn't belong to them! You are wrong! Go to the website for "La Raza" read about their goals. And that is only one extremely militant foreign organization.

Bottom line is that these foreigners are placing unsustainable debt on this country. Soon, that debt will take its toll and you will see your country's demise...all because Americans like you would not protect what you have, would not protect your way of life, your culture or the demographics of your country. You will no longer receive those government checks, no one will. There will be no money.

Did you like what you heard about Cyprus, I hope so. Because that is coming to this country. The banks will close and government will raid your bank accounts. We cannot afford to support every poor person in the world...that is what obammie wants us to do.
That is his agenda, to redistribute any wealth left in America to "the poor of the world." The result will be, everyone will live in shared poverty. So hope you are not too fond of your life as it is now. BTW, this redistribution is being kicked-off by balkanizing our country with large groups of foreigners all squabbling for what they can get. That causes chaos and those l.8 Billion bullets were not purchased by government for office workers to target practice.

Get over it and get over your emotionally support for criminals. How about some emotional support for protecting your country and its sovereignty.

Gee, what about the millions of Hispanics here with documentation who are working hard and paying taxes ?
Did you forget about them ? Of course, by your definition they aren't "real Americans" because of the color of their skin. I have seldom read an expression of opinion that reeks more of prejudice and paranoia than what you have posted.

TheeGambler, if you want to sample the fine restaurants in the Bay Area, stop going to Wendy's and MacDonald's. Did you try Chez Panisse, called by The New Yorker Magazine "the best restaurant in the country" ? I don't suppose so. That was the night you went to KFC. Didn't like the "original." The "extra crispy" is said to be very good.

It is not paranoid nor prejudice to support the immigration laws of this country!

Yours is an emotional, unreasonable assumption and not supported by the facts. Typical lib.

Better to see "reality" than to revert to your safe little fantasy world, plunking your head in the sand and repeating over and over, "all is wonderful, all is wonderful."

To solve a problem, one must be able to recognize it. Most mexifornians must think the way to solve a problem is to "ignore it."

Woops - I never said a thing about open borders - I feel "ALL" immigration should be controlled - immigrants who apply and are accepted only - we should follow the same rules as they do in their countries all over the world not just from MX -You who live in Texas just may know that in MX you cannot work if you don't have papers that say you can - a person from USA can not work in MX except under very few and regulated times. "ALL" documents are in Spanish, Divers license is only good fr the length of your papers, cars a confiscated if you are not the registered driver or family member. If the USA enforced the laws we already have lots of problems would be thinned out.
What is defined as "illegal" should be enforced as such.

Your experiences in San Francisco could be the same as mine have been at times over the past 50+ yrs of visiting the "City" But I do find it very biased towards the negative and not true of the city in general as I and my family have enjoyed many good times - dinners and such over the years.

Been to California, Dana Point, San Clemente, etc....Great place to visit, but I've no desire to live there. I enjoy the change of seasons & the Pacific Ocean is way too cold for my liking....Give me the Gulf coast for beaches any day...BTW, I'm originally from Northern Wisconsin, then Maryland & now Georgia. The older I get, the farther south I go. Did live in Florida for a short while, but didn't like that there was no season color change...

Aha ! So you frequent Popeye's, do you. Your comment proves much about you and your tastes, and not a thing about the excellent seafood restaurants in the Bay Area. No wonder you don't like gourmet food. Guess your still is more gourmand, isn't it ?

I am wondering why you did not mention the names of the places you ate. You must have missed Bernstiens, Original Joes,The House of India. Alferd's, the Cliff House and Top of The Mark - just a few of my favorites. I only eat fried chicken from my own kitchen - or BBQ.

Harvey, sounds like we do have some common ground! All that needs to be done is to enforce immigrations laws instead of government making it illegal for us to protect our own borders.

The regime is advertising on radio stations in mexico telling illegals to cross the border and get on the American Food Stamp program! This regime also advertises at the embassy and the mexican government hands out pamphlets telling mexicans how to get across the border and what to say to get benefits as illegals.

And, Harvey, you are right, mexico is extremely harsh on foreigners coming into their country. I have an acquaintance that is American and lives there. She must "report in as scheduled" or the police come to get her. She cannot own property in mexico. She has no rights or privileges that mexicans have even though she is married to a mexican national. She has to have "papers" on her at all times. Very different from here.

Harvey, I did enjoy going out to the valley, to the vinyards. I had some great wine-tasting experiences. Being away from the city is the only way to go. BTW I was born in California before it became mexifornia.

Have a good Easter.
