Sowell Gets Down to Brass Tacks on Immigration Policy

by way of Le Cygne Gris

Let's go back to square one. The purpose of American immigration laws and policies is not to be either humane or inhumane to illegal immigrants. The purpose of immigration laws and policies is to serve the national interest of this country.


There is no inherent right to come live in the United States, in disregard of whether the American people want you here. Nor does the passage of time confer any such right retroactively.


This is coupled nicely with

Discussing the salutory effect on unemployment that Alabama's anti illegal immigration act has had since its passage.

Why is it that only Black Republicans are allowed to speak most of the truth regarding immigration issues without being totally demonized?  I suspect this is a part of the appeal of Herman Cain, many Republicans think him immunized against the charge of racism for the horrible crime of advocating, in some cases, their interests as non-elite white people.
Sowell comes awfully close here to advocating my demographic hegemony thesis---damn, listen to this:

When you import people, you import cultures, including cultures that have been far less successful in providing decent lives and decent livelihoods. The American people have a right to decide for themselves whether they want unlimited imports of cultures from other countries

Once again, thanks to Le Cygne Gris for bringing these items of news to our attention.

One does notice that Blacks can get away with more. Except for that Juan Cole, who was fired from NPR for some un-PC remark or another.

The most radically anti-Obama figure in the USA that I know of is a Pastor James David Manning, a Black quasi-racialist with a congregation in Harlem. (See his youtube). Over the past four years he has called Obama every name in the book, accused him of all manner of high crimes, called his presidency illegal, held a trial at his church, found Obama guilty of treason, and called for Obama to be arrested. If a white man in a similar position had gone as far, he'd have been arrested.

One of Pastor Manning's finest:
The White Rodney King.
