After weeks of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio criticizing Phoenix for not taking a harder stance against illegal immigrants, Mayor Phil Gordon struck back Friday, saying the sheriff’s “made-for-TV stunts” could endanger police and spur violence among protesters.
Speaking at a luncheon at the Phoenix Convention Center honoring civil-rights leader Cesar Chavez, Gordon blasted Arpaio’s latest roundup of illegal immigrants in northeast Phoenix, saying that the sheriff acted in a way “that deliberately sets the stage for shouting matches, confrontations or worse.””*

A task force led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raided more than two dozen mostly Latino night clubs, restaurants, pool halls and other businesses Saturday night, arresting 49 undocumented immigrants employed as security guards, officials said.
All of those arrested work for two local security companies, which authorities declined to identify Sunday.
“We don’t want to compromise the investigation so we’re not releasing the two security company names yet,” said Jamille Bradfield, spokeswoman for the Dallas County district attorney’s office, which is participating in the investigation.
Hispanic leaders are calling for an immediate end to Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s illegal immigrants’ patrols, claiming they are dividing the community and could lead to violence.
“As a community, we see him going out setting up his troops and stopping people at random — racial profiling,” said Hector Yturralde, president of We Are America. “After they find out they can’t speak English or they have no identification, then they stop them for immigration.”
Yturralde added, “He is causing a division within this community that is not good. And that is not his job.””*
Rednecks who are loyalists to Fox News is never a good outcome…

Isaac R. Baichu, 46, an adjudicator for the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services, was arrested after he met with a green card applicant at the Flagship Restaurant, a diner in Queens. He is charged with coercing oral sex from her.
‘No problems so far, the immigration agent told the American citizen and his 22-year-old Colombian wife at her green card interview in December. After he stapled one of their wedding photos to her application for legal permanent residency, he had just one more question: What was her cellphone number?
The calls from the agent started three days later. He hinted, she said, at his power to derail her life and deport her relatives, alluding to a brush she had with the law before her marriage. He summoned her to a private meeting. And at noon on Dec. 21, in a parked car on Queens Boulevard, he named his price — not realizing that she was recording everything on the cellphone in her purse.
“I want sex,” he said on the recording. “One or two times. That’s all. You get your green card. You won’t have to see me anymore.”

This is the exact issue I talked about in my earlier post on the parallels between the exploitation within the porn industry with the current issue of immigration and Hispanics. The alarming issue of “Entertainment” and Reality is VERY REAL. Anything that encourages any idea whether you label entertainment or reality is bound to be real as you and I are.
A study released March 11, 2008 by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) alleged that anti-immigrant sentiment has been the catalyst behind an increase in hate crimes against Latinos. The report called “The Year in Hate” cited FBI data stating that 819 people were targets of anti-Latino crime in 2006, compared with 595 in 2003. According to an SPLC spokesman and as quoted in the Philadelphia Inquirer:“The immigration debate has turned the climate of this country into something very nasty,” [Mark] Potok said. “A lot of this is due to the vile propaganda coming out of these hate groups…”
“If it were merely the groups in a corner by themselves it wouldn’t be worrying,” Potok said. “But now the propaganda is being circulated by the mainstream media.”
Potok said conspiracy theories by the groups have been picked up and given validation by CNN and some national politicians.
Among the worst offenders, Potok said, are CNN’s Lou Dobbs and Congressman Steve King (R-Iowa).
TOO MUCH EXPLOITATION GOING ON WITHIN THE U.S. ESPECIALLY OF WORKING CLASS HISPANIC FEMALES
And I don’t think porn sites such as the following help much either such as:
8thstreetlatinas.com - “LATINAS FUCKI*G FOR THEIR GREEN CARDS!!! & WE MEAN ANYTHING!! JUST TO BE A LEGAL AMERICAN.”
DirtyLatinMaids.com - “The guy is already at the house, and acts completely innocent, engaging in rather bad conversation before steering towards the maids sexual experience, her likes and dislikes, and whether she would clean the place naked for money. More money is offered, and they do the deed…”
Latinaabuse.com - “Gringos Fucki*g Putas”
BorderBangers.com - “Watch these Desperate Brown Whores do whatever they can to stay in the US!”
These are just some I’ve been told about. It’s getting pretty bad.
