Farmers Branch Fights Illegal Aliens

Close to where I live is a town called Farmers Branch. The city council has recently voted in new laws that:
1 - made English the official city language
2 - force landlords to verify that the tenant is in the U.S. legally
3 - fine the landlords that do not do this
4 - train police officers to check for immigration status of those that they arrest.

Prior to the laws going into effect I saw a Hispanic lady on the news say that this was racist and a direct attack on minorities.

First off, I doubt minorities see this as a direct threat. Why is that? Maybe because in Dallas county Caucasians are the minority!! BING! First incorrect political statement.

Now secondly, the whole argument is flawed. This is not an attack on minorities OR immigrants. It is, however, an attack on felons. People that enter the United States illegally are committing a felony. They are criminals and should be treated as such. They are, in other words, illegal immigrants and regardless of the color of their skin, or what language they speak, they are going to have a much harder time living in Farmers Branch.

Now the laws have been passed. From the NBC5I article:
"It's a total un-American, un-Christian, un-Texan for the Farmers Branch City Council to do. We're not going to stand for it. We are going to take them to court," Domingo Garcia said.

I would like to personally address Mr. Garcia's statement.

un-American - really? It's un-American to enforce our laws, protect our borders and try to establish loyalty to the United States? How about it's un-American to try to flood into the country illegally and claim that your race of people is going to "take back" the land? That sounds an awful lot like treason and likens itself to an act of war against the U.S.

un-Christian - where, in the Bible or any other works does it say that enforcement of federal law is un-Christian? If anything, when someone gets arrested they are going to get 3-hots and a cot. Besides, this is not about religion. It's about enforcement of immigration laws that people have been breaking for years and nobody has done anything about it.

un-Texan - now I really disagree. Texas won it's independence from Mexico. I believe the Mexicans had to leave. Now all that is asked is that they be here legally. Make no mistake, Mr. Garcia, I will not buy into the acceptance factor that it is ok for illegal immigrants to flood across the border by the millions into Texas just because "that's the way it is."

According to NBC5I there are over 50 municipalities that are looking to enact similar laws. I applaud all of them. The sad thing is that our liberal court system is so messed up that the political activist groups in favor of illegal aliens will probably win their day in court.
