Not a good sign out of Los Angeles. But then again, when have they given us good news?
Los Angeles Mayor-elect Antonio Villaraigosa said Wednesday that Mexico will play an important role in shaping his policies, reports Mexico’s El Universal Online.
“We are starting a new era. Instead of closing the borders, as stated by Schwarzenegger, we should look at our border as an opportunity,” Villaraigosa said.
The top L.A. Democrat lamented that the recent passage by Congress of The Real ID Act, if signed into law, would prevent illegal aliens from getting driver’s licenses.
“Politicians in the United States need to understand that immigrants come here for the same reason that immigrants have always come: to work,” Villaraigosa told El Universal. “Instead of punishing and demonizing them, we should try to integrate them.”
How about if they actually came here legally and tried to intergrate with US? That sounds more like the relationship that immigrants have had with this country.
If I wanted to live in a third world country, I have plenty to chose from that I could move TO.
Villaraigosa also told El Universal that he would not support policies that supposedly persecute the city’s large migrant population.
“I support Special Order 40 [prohibiting police from making migration-related arrests],” he said. “We need our police officers to fight gangs and organized crime. That will keep them more than busy.”
Hey cabron, who do you think are the people in the gangs? They sure as hell aren’t all 5th Gen Hispanics.
Basically, he is saysing, ‘This is your warning gringo, get the hell out’.
Sane Los Angeleans, listen to your mayor or you’ll be getting your change back in Pesos soon.
