Hispanic groups call for destruction of Schwarzenegger's movies
2004-10-08
A group of Hispanic activists is promising to "punish" Governor Schwarzenegger for his veto of legislation that would have let illegal immigrants get drivers licenses. Leaders of Latino Movement USA held a rally today in Los Angeles. The group is soliciting the donation of movies the former actor starred in for a symbolic destruction in December. Last month, Schwarzenegger vetoed a bill that would have let up to two million immigrants drive legally. The legislation's supporters have vowed to go after the governor, whom they think caved in to public sentiment. Schwarzenegger has said the bill ignored his requirement of key security safeguards -- an identifying mark that would differentiate them from licenses held by US citizens and legal residents.

#26  The reason that the driver's license thing keeps coming up is the Motor Voter law that directs the DMV to offer these would be drivers the opportunity to register to vote. The Democrats view this as a tremendous and quasilegal opportunity to pad their base. Register the illegals as Democrats and vote them absentee forever.

#19  Mucky opines: "thatn purdy ignorant remark."

Ah Muckster, it is only an ignorant remark if one lack the intellectual horsepower to understand it.

In #4, RWV says:"If there isn't a convenient state line, then outside the 12 mile limit."

This refers to the U.S. offshore territorial limit, and RWV was suggesting that we drop off the illegal aliens, outside of it.

I was merely pointing out that the limit is actually 200 miles, and if we dropped them there, that would indeed be a LONG swim back.

Does that clear it up for you?

Mr. Peabody

#18  Good old fashion book/VHS/DVD burning! Man these LLL are really taking that extra step to look like the late great Nazi Party. Have they called for thr deportation of Jews or Christian yet? Problem they have is that Arny has a popularity of about 80% and that pretty much makes you immune from stupid moves like this. Look for Arny to come out and call them: "Hombres de destape."

#14  "The legislation’s supporters have vowed to go after the governor...." It will require at least a dozen of the morons. I'm sure Shwarzenegger packs a helluva punch.

#8  It really shouldn't be so complicated: break the law (illegally immigrate) and you not only don't get a driver's license, you will be returned to your state of citizenry because you broke US law. Skin color, language, ethnic background are of no consequence-the same rule will be applied to everyone.

I am going to be the stone in the shoe of every governmental official on this issue. Those who say one thing and do another, or who defend lawbreakers for chauvinistic ethnic purposes or political gain, are going to learn the meaning of the word 'abrasion'.

#7  Why can't they (non-citizens) use a license from their home country? Reciprocity is common when it comes to driving. They couldn't possibly want a fake ID for other purposes could they?

"Most Californians want him to round up all the illegal aliens and deposit them across..."

And most citizens of Texas, New Mexico & Arizona would like to see their respective Governors do the same...round up and deport that is.

"If there isn't a convenient state line, then outside the 12 mile limit."

Even better, the U.S. has a 200 mile limit! That's a LONG way to swim.

#3  Well, yes, they should be upset with the Governor. Most Californians want him to round up all the illegal aliens and deposit them across the nearest state line never to return. Ship their activist asses to Nuevo Laredo and tell them to never show their faces in this country again.

#2  Just your typical socialist Mexican/Californians who want California to be part of Mexico again. Nothing to see move on. They are out numbered by the Redneck/Mexican/Californians by a huge %. Most actual Mexicans (wet or dry) just want to work and be left alone.
