I think it’s time for a bounty…

This week’s Guard the Border blogburst post if from an eye-witness account of an illegal alien “demonstration” in Chicago. I think these things are great and should be encouraged. I also think the U.S. government ought to put a bounty of $5,000 per illegal payable to citizens who turn illegals in for deportation.

I think the two things would work very nicely together, don’t you? Now, on to Freedom Folks’ account of the mob of illegals in Chicago…

Illegal Aliens March On Chicago

“Si, se puede!” was the cry of the crowd in Chicago today — “Yes, we can!” Thousands upon thousands of illegal aliens and their supporters gathered in Union Park, then marched down Jackson Street to The Loop. Jamming the plaza, as well as the surrounding streets and sidewalks, they rallied to cheer on those who had come to speak.

They demanded legalization for all immigrants. They patted each other on the back for working hard and having dreams. They lauded politicians who devote themselves to representing “the people,” which evidently, in their minds, includes “the people” who have come here illegally and don’t get to vote. They demanded justice. They jeered HR4437, the House bill passed last December that would make coming here illegally a criminal offense, rather than a civil one, that calls for a fence on the border, and that would penalize anyone who hires and/or helps someone to come or stay here illegally.

Mayor Daley even got up to add his support, which made no sense:

“Don’t let anyone tell you you’re an immigrant,” he shouted. “We’re all immigrants!”

???

“Si, se puede!” Yes we can WHAT, one wonders?

Yes we can…make demands of the government, even though we’re here illegally? Yes we can…break your laws then demand to not only not be penalized, but to be rewarded for it? Yes we can…take taxpayer-funded services like education and healthcare, and in exchange we’ll drive down wages and refuse to assimilate? Yes we can…shout loud enough about our civil rights that the politicians will forget that civil rights are, by definition, for citizens?

Squirrels Line Dancing *sigh*/Open Post

Big storm(s) in and around third world county last night. The worst of it was several counties away, north and south, though, which explains why my broadband access is out today. Lovely Daughter’s car suffered hail damage (it was her night to be parked on the street–shared garage). Just the driver’s side window gone, though.

Reduced to extremely slow and hinky dialup (either squirrels are line dancing on the local telco’s chewing-gum-and-baling-wire “infrastructure” *cough* or some baling wire is about to give out down the line…

Link to this post and track back. If I can, later I have a coupla posts to get up, but it’s taken an hour on this connection just to get this far. *sigh*
