I that's right "feeling good about ourselves" is the number one priority. Sorry, I forgot. [Love all these posters who come out of the woodwork to support this racist rant by Mr. McGarry.

I agree with you on those symptoms, not necessarily whether those symptoms are all bad, I am not prejudiced. Other than the desire to be a leader and part of something popular, why do you and others simply give the wealthy in this country and Mexico this pass? Remember, you are asking poor Mexican parents to be irresponsible to the future of their kids, by obeying unenforced US laws, while enabling some American born slacker to enjoy the presumptive entitlement to a job. How likely is that?The global economy, as run by the world's wealthy power elite will not allow this. The world's middle classes on down, will have to confront the wealthy power elite to break this. I think you understand that. M McGarry,

I decided not to engage the guy but instead to give all the space and time he needed to have his little catharsis, figuring if he was an otherwise OK guy, he would respect my non-resistance, have his say and leave. He didn't. Instead, he apparantly took my passivity as a sign of weakness and his bravado became so inflated, I sensed he was about to get physical. So I let him know in unequvocal terms that he was about to have an unimaginable hell come down on him from which he would never, ever fully recover--and I meant it and was ready to go. Mr. Bravado immediately turned into a pathatic pool of quivering protoplasm and sloshed away. To this day, he crosses the street when he see me. If your not the weenie that guy was, you won't hide behind your anonymity but instead publicly own your word! What about it?

Our leaders at all levels fail the American people. In Denver and Boulder and in Vail, and in Aspen, illegals swamp the local areas with crime, overrun our schools, spread drugs, job degradation, welfare and worse. This is an invasion that thwarts our laws and makes liars and thieves our of our own employers. Given enough time, another Newark Massacre or Don Young death will occur in Aspen as its illegals grow in numbers.
