Vicious Rants of an Angry Yellow Man

I have been an advocate for immigrants for a long time. I don't think that illegal immigrants should be treated as criminals because I think everyone of us who are ambitious would do the same if we are put in the same situation. So I am more with the liberals on this one. But sometimes I think the liberals have no common sense. The situation in San Francisco is a case in point. SF has called itself a santuary city as it does not cooperate with the Feds in catching illegals. It also would not turn over juveniles who have committed crimes to be deported. Instead it has sheltered them is places like San Bernadino, which is in southern California. This was not known to San Bernardion authorities! Of course nobody was watching these juveniles and they escaped! I am sure this will help mayor Newsom run for governor someday!

Now another story out of SF. An illegal who had been convicted of crimes twice shot and killed 3 people in what appears to be road rage. I have stated many times that factoring in economic status, I believe that immigrants, legal and illegal, commit less crimes than Americans in general. I will stand by that claim. But it makes no sense to excuse people who do commit crimes, whatever their status. Illegals who committed crime should serve their sentences and/or deported. There is no reason to be more lenient to them than Americans. They ARE criminals in these cases. What are the leaders in SF thinking?

It is election year and the economy is in the tank. So the government is putting out economic stimulus checks, bailouts to financial firms and now the mortgage bailout. Both McCain and Obama are for this latest bailout. Only a few Republicans who are in safe districts have come out against the bill. As I said before, didn't we learned from the S@L of the 80's? It is unfair for taxpayers to bailout irresponsible people. If the government is tied to Freddy Mac and Fannie Mae, then why are they private companies with CEOs making money like private CEOs? They even have lobbyists like private companies. So taxpayer money is used to lobby the government to spend more taxypayer's money? Are we still a capitalist society?
