To your point,believe it when it happens. The only States that are screaming are California and New Mexico. The rest are playing their friggin Race Baiting Game.

Dems need to be making way more noise on this one.

Yes a couple national newspapers were expressing hand wringing and oh my talk,but the friggin country did not have a friggin clue.

(34,661 posts)Do remember Crystal Sugar sending recruiters into Latin America promising people the moon stars and even a planet or two in that same time frame. Just load up the car or pickup and head north. Yup,nothing to fear. Yah right,these folks used their last few bucks to buy Gas and went with out food for a week just to get to Beet Country only to be met with some A-hole totting a double barrel. In the early sixties,the County Sheriff's would post their Deputies at major intersections and turn these folks around or arrest them for any Lame Reason.
