I wonder if I can walk across the Canadian border as an illegal American and if they will pay my way for me? This seems like a nice enough family. That is not the point. The point is they are illegals and come with a far greater movment to the US as they now enter into Canada. The crime along the Mexican American border is so bad that even the Mexican Americans are now standing up saying enough is enough. They are being called Mexican American racists against Mexicans from Mexico now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxkGmFnbqH4
Now for La Raza preaching Islam on American soil. Do you guys think this is okay? I would just like to gather thoughts. This video is from Los Angeles. Thanks for your time and thoughts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9pr0SlZHkY

I made a mistake. It is not Islam they are preaching it's Aztlan. Sorry for the confusion. I was wondering about that. I am very glad my ears were wrong.

I do not understand what racism has to do with the swarm of illegal aliens across the boarders that are now going onto the Canada. Is there something about the word illegal that needs to be defined?

I have to say that as a Canadian I like that we welcome others into canada. I mean hell if you aren't native american, basically everyone in Canada and the US for that matter comes from an immigrant family somewhere down the line. And Canada certainly in the past has its dark history of nasty immigration laws, such as the shameful head tax on Chinese immigrants. New cultures interest me greatly and with some of the things going on in other countries, it is nice to know that Canada welcomes those who come seeking work, freedom for persecution and in some cases even death.
However the other side of that is that our laws can be very lax in some ways. Recently in Toronto there has been a huge issue made of an absolutely horrible killing of a 16 year old girl. http://www.nationalpost.com/most_popular/story.html?id=164938 She was from a Muslim family, the father wanted her to wear the hijab, she didnt want o, after leaving home to live with a friend due to many domestic disputes she returned to get some clothes and ended up getting strangled by him resulting in her death.
I believe that whatever your cultural and religious beliefs are, it should be made VERY clear to any immigrant that if you want to come to Canada you must obey Canadian laws, spousal abuse, child abuse, forced marriages, mercy killings, illegal weapon traficing, child sex trade and the like are not tollerated. No different that when visiting another country that has very strict laws and cultural beleifs with harsh punishments it is made clear that as a visitor you are expected to obey those laws no matter what your beleifs are.
I also see in some places a problem particularly in schools because of the very touchy area of tollerance and acceptance of cultural beliefs and multy culturalism, that even where a problem is obvious or well known there is often a reluctance to get involved for fear of being labled "racists" or for "discrimination on basis of cultural beliefs" I love cultural diversity but when it starts putting others lives in danger or harming others there is a problem.
In the case of the Mexicans, if they are coming to Canada for the honest opportunity of work and a better life and are working towards becoming Canadian citizens then I don't see a problem, so long as they are willing to obey Canadian law, however if they are coming to participate in things like weapon or human trafficing, or any of the other common offenses discovered at our border... then theres a problem.
And our immigration laws are certainly far from perfect, but who's are?
