An American by Choice

Memorial Day, May 28th, 2007
I love America too much to remain silent on this matter of immigration. Memorial Day is a good time to speak out. We honor our dead Veterans who have given us the right to speak our minds and hearts: “walking in the pathway of truth” and not in the iron curtain of “political correctness.”

I became a legal immigrant in 1958. In October, I joined the regular U.S. Army for three years and obtained my citizenship in that short time. I love traditional America and the Founding Fathers, in particular, Alexander Hamilton. Maybe that is why I studied for an M.A. in U.S. History in 1969 from Pepperdine University with a paper on “Alexander Hamilton’s Criticism of John Adam’s Foreign Policy.” Enough said. Happy Memorial Day!

“Imagine and pretend that there are over 12 million illegal Canadian immigrants in the U.S.A. The idea of a 3000 mile fence puzzles me. I think most of the money should be spent on bringing about drastic changes in the Canadian government. In some ways that government is worse than a dictatorship. A dictatorship would at least have closed its borders and not allowed its citizens to leave. Today, Canadians are encouraged to leave because of economic reasons so that they can send back monies to their families. What kind of Canadian government is this? There is something seriously wrong. Justice for the Canadian people cries out to high heaven. And all of this also hurts our benevolent America. Pretend some more. I do not understand why on my way by car from Buffalo, New York to Oakville, Ontario, Canada to visit relatives I have to pay a police officer a bribe of money for a safer passage. And why in Windsor just across the border of Detroit, there are about 500 murders a year and another 300 women murdered or disappeared? And why in several Canadian cities, there are grenade attacks on police stations?” GHK

And now, if the U.S. Congress does come up with some kind of immigration law, let’s stop sticking our heads in the sand about what is going on. It is Mexico where the problem of immigration originates and needs correction.
“There is a warning well known in Mexico uttered by Luis Cuevas over 100 years ago. I can quote it only by paraphrasing it from a memory that caught its meaning but not its exact wording. It is taken from his book “El Porvenir de Mexico:” Mexico under the regime of Liberals will go to its own ruin and the time will come when the Mexican people will be forced to stretch their arms toward the United States, crying: ‘Save Us.’” p. 318
I quote the above paragraph from a book by Francis Clement Kelley, “Blood-Drenched Altars” Mexican Study and Comment with Documentation and notes by Eber Cole Byam, The Bruce Publishing Company, Milwaukee, 1935 (Third Printing – 1936) The book is a religious perspective on Mexican history.
