DAY LABOR CENTER FRAUD AND MEXICAN TERRORISM

WEST LOS ANGELES April 23 -- When AmericanPatrol.com visited the West Los Angeles Labor Center run by the City of Los Angeles it was told it could not video tape the outside of the building from the sidewalk.

AmericanPatrol.com was attempting to provide evidence to the people in Farmingville for their upcoming battle over a day labor center in their community. As you will see in the following pages, these day labor centers are a fraud.

Large Hispanic population makes Western states among most fertile

If the Midwest is the nation's breadbasket, the Rocky Mountain region is its baby carriage. The top eight states with the highest fertility rates in the country were west of the Mississippi, and in this order: Utah, Arizona, Nevada, Alaska, Texas, New Mexico, Idaho and Colorado, according to a study by the Centers for Disease Control National Center for Health Statistics released this week. To put it into perspective, take an average woman from each of the six Rocky Mountain states, and they would have 14.65 children among them in their lifetime. That's two more children than six average American women would have, and five more babies than six average women from Vermont.

Tempers rise over immigrants [read: illegal alien day laborers]

....Another morning was under way at the Huntington Station hiring site, a mating ground where contractors, roofers, landscapers and homeowners come to collect day laborers. The workers at this and other day-labor assembly points across the Island have a reputation for stamina at jobs that many Americans would refuse. But most are also illegal aliens, and for every citizen like Dr. Barakat, who looks at them and sees the American Dream in action, there is someone like Ray Wysolmierski of the Sachem Quality of Life Organization, a group opposed to the Farmingville center. He sees immigration laws flouted, taxes unpaid and jobs taken from legal residents.

Lack of witness stalls illegal alien detention case

Cochise County prosecutors haven't been able to find a key witness as they review an incident in which a citizen fired a handgun while detaining a group of illegal entrants on private property. The March 18 incident involved brothers Roger and Donald Barnett, who detained the group of 16 migrants trying to make their way through Roger Barnett's Cross Rail Ranch near the border east of Douglas. "That case is still pending within our office. However, we have encountered some difficulties regarding witness availability," said Cochise County Attorney Chris Roll. -- The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service granted Cordoba 30- day parole into the United States at Roll's request to ensure Cordoba's availability to aid in the investigation.

Latinos fear interaction with police

Maria Peres says she is tired of putting off college applications while waiting for a change in her residency status that would permit her to enroll. She's tired of being afraid to call Des Moines police if she's in danger, for fear officers will treat her differently because she is from another country. Her reservations about calling police are widely echoed among the state's Latinos, police and advocates say. The [presumably illegal] immigrants fear deportation if they report a crime. Police respond that they don't try to figure out whether crime victims are here legally. The federal Immigration and Naturalization Service supports that position. Several Iowa police departments also say they want to change the perception that they understand only white culture.

Suicide kid's dad calls cops racist

An angry, grieving father accused cops yesterday of calling the death of his son a suicide because the boy - who died under the wheels of a subway train - "was Mexican." "The lack of interest in the death of Jesus Rodrigo, [as police] concluded in 40 minutes that it was a suicide, is because he . . . was just a f - - - - - - alien like [Amadou] Diallo or [Abner] Louima," the father, Miguel Garcia, told mourners at a packed funeral home in Queens. "To the incommensurable pain of his death, the vileness and racism of the police are added," Garcia said, linking his son to other victims of alleged police misconduct. "Perhaps we will never know what terrible truth they hide. Maybe they just hide their ineptitude and show their brutal racism." -- The parents have urged friends to call the Mexican consulate in New York and the district attorney to demand a fresh probe.

Farmingville, NY

Illegal Workers Causing Tension

Many residents of Farmingville -- a predominantly white community of 15,800 where the median income is $68,000 -- say their streets are overrun by transient workers who are here illegally, hurting property values and raising safety concerns. There is also a growing sense of tension in the community 50 miles east of New York City, according to police and immigrant experts. On Tuesday, Suffolk County lawmakers will vote on whether to fund a ''hiring site'' away from the street corners where workers and would- be employers now gather to discuss jobs and wages. The county legislature voted to set aside $80,000 for Catholic Charities to establish a site. County Executive Robert Gaffney vetoed the measure, saying it is inappropriate for government to subsidize illegal employment.

Mexican Arrested in Killings of 2 U.S. Citizens

Mexican police have arrested a suspect in the Tijuana slayings of two U.S. citizens -- the 1998 killing of a San Diego private investigator and the July death of the son of Mexican singer Beatriz Adriana Flores, prosecutors announced Sunday. Humberto Iribe Monroy, 26, was arrested Saturday at his mother's home in Rosarito, a Mexican beach town about 15 miles south of San Diego, said Alberto Ramos, director of the Mexican attorney general's office in Tijuana. The U.S. has requested Iribe be extradited to face charges there in the torture slaying of San Diego private investigator Richard Post. Post was allegedly killed in Tijuana, but California prosecutors say the murder may have been planned on U.S. soil.

Project USA Update

During last year's presidential campaign, ProjectUSA director Craig Nelsen asked candidate George W. Bush, a supporter of current levels of legal mass immigration, at what point he thought immigration levels should finally be reduced: when U.S. population had reached a billion? Two billion? Three? The future president was stymied (he didn't even know what chain immigration is) -- and has still not answered this important question. -- In another shocking example of irresponsible and short-sighted public policy pronouncements on immigration, Delaware Democratic Senator Joe Biden said Tuesday in an Associated Press report that he "supported opening the borders from 'Costa Rica to Canada,' an idea that (Mexican President Vincente) Fox has voiced often since his election July 2.

Obnoxious illegals deported, Latinos cry 'racism'

The U.S. immigration agents thought they would be hailed as heroes. After witnessing school girls -- some as young as 9 and 10 -- being sexually taunted and rubbed against, a dozen agents swept into town and arrested and deported 39 illegal immigrants. But there were few public cheers. Instead, the people of Greenfield couldn't be more furious. It's whom that anger is directed against, though, that has sharply divided this overwhelmingly Latino farming community of 12,500 in Monterey County, leading to a stew of charges and countercharges that include racism, bad police work and political- correctness gone mad. To many parents and schoolchildren, it seems so simple. "I'm glad they were deported," said one 14- year- old Mexican- American girl......

Thousands [of illegals] seek to wed before law expires

He is from Lima, Peru; she hails from Cali, Colombia. They met in a laundry in Uniondale, fell in love and had a baby. But they never formalized their bond with marriage. Now Cesar and Angie, who declined to give their last names, are rushing to the altar this week. A complex new law has opened a window for thousands of undocumented immigrants like Cesar to gain legal residency if they are married to permanent residents, like Angie, and apply by April 30. Town halls across Long Island have been inundated with immigrants mainly from Latin America and Asian nations such as India, Pakistan and China who, like Cesar and Angie, are pushing up their wedding dates to qualify for the program.

The coming fight over Latino power

In Georgia last month, black state lawmakers blocked a bill that would have granted minority status to Hispanics because, as one put it, they considered the proposal to be "a slap in the face and a lack of respect." After a brief hue and cry, the bill was revived in the state Senate, approved unanimously and sent to the House, where it was passed by a lopsided margin that included the votes of its earlier black opponents. So now, Hispanics join African-Americans, Asians and Native Americans under a law that grants tax deductions of up to $6,000 to contractors who hire minority subcontractors on state jobs. As political feuds go, it didn't amount to much. As an omen of what lies ahead as minorities compete for political power and government largesse, however, it was hard to ignore.

Hispanic parents told how to talk to teachers

In some Latin American countries, it borders on insulting for a parent to question a teacher or principal. Teachers make decisions about a child's education, and parent- That's not the case in Georgia, but Latinos do not always know that. So the MALDEF has started a program to train parents how to get involved in their children's schools. A nine-week pilot program is under way at Benteen Elementary School in Atlanta, where 37 percent of students are Hispanic.teacher conferences are not as common as they are in this country. A similar course is to begin this week at Cary Reynolds Elementary School in DeKalb County, where half the students are Hispanic. Later, classes may be offered at schools in Dalton and Moultrie, said Gladys Ibanez, school parent leadership director for MALDEF's Atlanta office.

Newsday Turns Up The BS Mill

Vote on illegal alien aiding- abetting center on tap for Tuesday

Suffolk County legislators would do well to pick up a dictionary tomorrow before casting the all- important votes that will determine whether Farmingville gains a community center and hiring hall [translation: gets a facility to aid and abet illegals at taxpayers expense]. The word of the day is "mettle." That's the quality that enables one to stand fast in the face of opposition, hardship or danger. The word is appropriate for the 12 lawmakers who proved themselves once, when they voted to put seed money into a proposed community center. The measure was then vetoed by Suffolk County Executive Robert Gaffney. -- "THIS DAY is of GREAT NATIONAL IMPORTANCE to communities and immigration groups alike," the Sachem Quality of Life Organization, which opposes the center, trumpeted on its Web site last week.
