EVERYTHING IS OK .....I HAVE A SOLUTION!
Subject: Border Problems - A solution
. . . Everyone concentrates on the problems we're having in this country
lately; illegal immigration, hurricane recovery, alligators attacking
people in Florida
Not me. I concentrate on solutions for the problems. It's a win-win
situation.

WORDS FROM 1907 ...WHEN WE HAD SPIRIT!
Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American....There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language.. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.'

WHERES OUR LIFE, LIBERTY, PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS?
HEADLINES FROM THE BORDER
THESE HEADLINES ARE SCARY, AND WE SHOULD BE SCARED!
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING INTO OUR COUNTRY
UNNOTICED!
OUR GOVERNMENT IS REQUIRED BY THE LAW TO PROTECT US AND ENSURE OUR ABILITY TO PURSUE HAPPINESS!
THE LACK OF ACTION BY OUR GOVERNMENT REQUIRES US TO REACT!
REMEMBER THAT PHRASE IN THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
I CAN NOT PURSUE HAPPINESS WHEN PEOPLE LIKE THIS ARE SURGING THROUGH
OUR BORDERS AND THREATENING OUR FREEDOMS!

1. Anniston, Alabama: If a woman loses a game of pool, it is illegal for her to settle her tab with sex.
2. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania: It is illegal to have sex with a truck driver in a tollbooth.
3. Cottonwood, Arizona: Couples having sex in a vehicle with flat wheels will be fined. The fine will be doubled if the sex occurs in the backseat.
4. Newcastle, Wyoming: Couples are banned from having sex while standing inside a store's walk-in meat freezer.
5. Tremonton, Utah: No woman is allowed to have sex with a man while riding in an ambulance. In addition to normal charges, the woman's name will be published in the local newspaper. Um... discrimination, anyone?
6. Oblong, Illinois: It's punishable by law to have sex while hunting or fishing on your wedding day.
7. Bozeman, Montana: All sexual activity between members of the opposite sex in the front yard of a home after sundown is illegal — if they're nude.
8. Connorsville, Wisconsin: It's against the law for a man to shoot off a gun when his female partner has an orgasm.
9. Utah: Sex with an animal — unless performed for profit — is not considered sodomy and therefore is legal
10. Oxford, Ohio: It's illegal for a woman to strip off her clothing while standing in front of a man's picture.
11. Minnesota: It is illegal for any man to have sexual intercourse with a live fish — ladies, apparently, you’re in the clear.

WHAT IS A MATRICULA UPDATED***
MATRICULA CONSULAR ...KNOW WHAT THAT IS? IN TWELVE STATES IT IS ID!
IN THIRTEEN STATES YOU CAN DRIVE WITH IT! SO THAT MUST MEAN YOU CAN
PURCHASE INSURANCE WITH IT?
M.C.A.S. its called.. IS AN ID CARD GIVEN TO MEXICAN NATIONALS LIVING OUTSIDE OF MEXICO GIVEN TO THEM BY THE MEXICAN CONSULT.
IN 2002 SEVERAL US STATES BEGAN ACCEPTING THE ID CARDS. BANKS MOSTLY.
IN SEPT. 2004 CONGRESS DENIED A MOTION TO PREVENT FINANCIAL INS. FROM ACCEPTING THEM AS ID.
IN CALIFORNIA AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CAN PURCHASE A VEHICLE AND INSURE THE CAR WITH THE MATRICULA.
AN AMERICAN WITHOUT A DRIVERS LICENSE CAN NOT PURCHASE NOR INSURE A VEHICLE!
I THINK WE AS AMERICANS BETTER TAKE A LOOK AT OUR LAWS AND MAKE SURE
THAT EVERYTHING WE SAY AND DO MATCH WITH HOW WE WANT TO RUN OUR COUNTRY!
update: 2012
***An important bill is now before the California Senate that will affect every Notary in the state.Assembly Bill 442 would add the Mexican Matricula Consular card to the list of acceptable documents used to establish the identity of persons seeking notarizations. The card is issued by the Mexican government to its citizens residing abroad for use as identification.
Unfortunately, the Matricula Consular card does not include certain elements that would make it acceptable as verifiable identification (as the FBI and U.S. Department of Justice pointed out in testimony before Congress in 2003). For example, while the card includes a photograph and signature, it does not include a physical description.
While the Mexican government claims that since 2002, it has taken significant measures to upgrade the security of the card, the National Notary Association recently received confirmation from the FBI saying that the Bureau's view of the Matricula card has not changed since the original 2003 testimony and that their strong concerns about the card's security continue.
The official analysis of the bill on the California State Assembly's Website states that the procedures and documents used to obtain the card are also open to question (e.g., birth certificates in Mexico can easily be forged). Additionally, state law already allows a Mexican driver's license or passport to be used as acceptable forms of identification for notarizations, and these are preferable.
The bill has passed in the Assembly and is now up for a vote in the Senate.
Similar legislation passed in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and was vetoed by the governor. I expect he would veto it again based on the federal real id act.
You would have thought that outlawing Matricula s after 9/11 would have been a no-brainer. Instead, terrorists posing as illegal aliens can board airplanes.
Consular cards allows non-citizens who are in the country illegally to use identification documents issued by foreign governments for the express purpose of bypassing the United States security laws.
Illegal aliens abuse of the Matricula Consular undermines immigration policy and weakens the mechanisms that congress put in place after 9/11 to safeguard American businesses and financial institutions against fraud and abuse; and more importantly to save lives.
Unlike state issued driver's licenses, local law enforcement cannot verify the information contained on the Matricula with a state database because none exists

I FOUND A CODE OF CONDUCT SCHOOL ISSUE FROM ALEXANDER AL SCHOOL.
THE SCHOOL YEAR IS 2010-2011
CORPORAL PUNISHMENT
As a last resort method to maintain discipline or to enforce school rules prior to expulsion, a
principal or designate may administer corporal punishment (paddling) through moderate use of
physical force or physical contact. Such punishment shall be administered under conditions
which do not hold the student to ridicule or shame and which punishment is never in the
presence of other students. No student is required to submit to corporal punishment.
A student's parent/guardian may make a written request that his/her child be exempted from
corporal punishment and that an alternative punishment be given that is acceptable to the
54
principal. If an alternative is acceptable to the principal but is not effective, the use of corporal
punishment may be reinstated with or without the student's parent/guardian consent.
The procedures listed below must be followed to guarantee proper and legally required due
process on behalf of the student:
1. The student must have been informed previously that his/her behavior could bring
about the use of corporal punishment.
2. Prior to corporal punishment, initial efforts and/or alternative methods should be
taken in an attempt to modify the student's behavior.
3. The administration of corporal punishment must occur in the presence of another
certified employee, but only after:
a. the school employee is informed about the reasons for punishment in the
presence of the student;
b. the student is given the opportunity to deny or admit his/her guilt; and
c. it has been determined that the instrument to be used to corporal punish is
appropriate for the age and physical size of the student being punished.
4. No more than three licks shall be administered to a student's buttocks.
5. Whenever corporal punishment is administered, a written report shall be made and a
copy forwarded to the child's parent/guardian.
6. No instrument shall be used that might produce physical injury to the student, no part
of the body above or below the buttocks may be struck, and the number of strokes
and severity thereof shall be reasonable and moderate.
7. Only paddles are to be used in administering corporal punishment and are to be
made from a general and smooth wood product and conformed to the following
maximum sizes per dimension: Grades K-6: Length 7 1/2", Width 3 1/2", Thickness
1/4", and Handle Length 4". Grades 7-12: Length 13", Width 5", Thickness 3/8", and

WHERES OUR MONEY?
The Arizona Immigration Law was written because the state feels drained of money!
Mostly the welfare system which includes cash,food stamps,housing,medical.
Then there is the schools,hospitals,police,fire department.The real big one would be the
court system and the jails and prisons.Social workers,probation department,the list goes on!
In the early days of the United States, the colonies imported the British Poor Laws. These laws made a distinction between those who were unable to work due to their age or physical health and those who were able-bodied but unemployed. The former group was assisted with cash or alternative forms of help from the government. The latter group was given public service employment in workhouses.
Under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Social Security Act was enacted in 1935. The act, which was amended in 1939, established a number of programs designed to provide aid to various segments of the population. Unemployment compensation and AFDC (originally Aid to Dependent Children) are two of the programs that still exist today.
A number of government agencies were created to oversee the welfare programs. Some of the agencies that deal with welfare in the United States are the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the Department of Labor, the Department of Agriculture, and the Department of Education.
The combined value of federal, state, and local expenditures in 2004 was $3.75 trillion, Federal taxes amounted to $1.82 trillion. State and local taxes and related revenues amounted to $1.6 trillion,
Together,THEY amounted to $3.43 trillion.THAT'S about 91 percent!
MY IDEA lets through out the Welfare System and the People who are able body but refuse to work!
LETS KICK EVERYONE OFF THE FREE RIDE KNOWN AS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND DO AWAY WITH THE DRAIN OF OUR MONEY!
LETS KEEP THE HARD WORKING PEOPLE WHETHER THEY ARE HISPANIC OR AMERICAN!
WITHOUT THE WELFARE DEPARTMENT LETS SEE HOW POPULAR WE ARE!

WHAT IS FEMININE?
I am Going to be Taking a Look at Feminity,Womanhood, Where We Have Been, and What Will Our Daughters will be Saying About US!
I want to start with the past and look at a Very Special Woman who i love, and helped shape my thoughts
on women!
I would like to start with my Nanner, my mothers mother.She never wore makeup,never even bought any.
She also never drove,never even had a license. She got her hair done thou ,that was her little expense.Her nails were always clean and trimmed her home was always clean! She never smoked or drank or swore as she would say.she never raised her voice,or interrupted anyone.she never carried on about anyone or even talked down about any one. My Nanner did not even know what attitude was until my brothers were teenagers. She did blush thou, if she thought she had spoke out of turn or made a noise. She was always happy to see us, in the middle of the night ,when we were sick or even bad. She would try and be cross with us,but she just could not do it.She loved all of us and always made you feel better!
That would not work in today's society, no makeup no driving!
Nanner was kind , soft spoken, courteous,feminine,lady like!
All the things i want to be!

WHERES MANS COMMON SENSE?
I READ THIS SOME WHERE
I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE CUTE FOR
FATHERS DAY
I HOPE EVERY MAN HAS A GREAT DAY!
ONLY A MAN WOULD
ATTEMPT THIS
Pocket Taser Stun Gun, a great gift for the wife.
A guy who purchased his lovely wife a pocket Taser for their anniversary
submitted this:
Last weekend I saw something at Larry's Pistol & Pawn Shop that sparked my
interest.
The occasion was our 15th
anniversary and I was looking for a little something extra for my wife Julie.
What I came across was a
100,000-volt, pocket/purse- sized taser.
The effects of the taser were supposed to be short lived, with no
long-term adverse affect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to
retreat to safety....??
WAY TOO COOL!!
Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home.
I loaded two AAA batteries in the darn thing and pushed the button.
Nothing! I was disappointed.
I learned, however, that if I pushed the button AND pressed it
against a metal surface at the same time; I'd get the blue arc of electricity darting back and forth between the prongs.
AWESOME!!!
Unfortunately, I
have yet to explain to Julie what that burn spot is on the face of her
microwave.
Okay, so I was home alone with this new toy, thinking to myself that it
couldn't be all that bad with only two triple-A batteries, right? There
I sat in my recliner, my cat Gracie looking on intently (trusting
little soul)
while I was reading the directions and thinking that I really needed to
try
this thing out on a flesh & blood moving target.
I must admit I thought about zapping Gracie (for a fraction of a second) and
thought better of it. She is such a sweet cat.
But, if I was going to give this
thing to my wife to protect herself against a mugger, I did want some assurance
that it would work as advertised.
Am I wrong? So,
there I sat in a pair of shorts and a tank top with my reading glasses perched delicately
on the bridge of my nose, directions in one hand, and taser in another.
The directions said that a one-second burst would shock and disorient your
assailant; a two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a major
loss of bodily control; a three-second burst would purportedly make your
assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water.
Any burst longer than three seconds would be wasting the
batteries.
All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5"
long, less
than 3/4 inch in circumference; pretty cute really and (loaded with two
itsy, bitsy triple-A batteries) thinking to myself, 'no possible way!'
What
happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best...
I'm sitting there alone, Gracie looking on with her head
cocked to one side as to say, 'don't do it you big dummy,' reasoning that a one
second burst from such a tiny little ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad, I decided to give
myself a one second burst just for heck of it.
I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button, and . .
GOOD HEAVENS!!... ...
WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION . . .
WHAT THE HECK!!!
I'm pretty sure Jessie Ventura ran in through the side door,
picked me up in the recliner, then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and
over and over again.
I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position, with
tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, testicles nowhere to
be found, with my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest position, and tingling
in my legs. The cat was making meowing sounds I had never heard before,
clinging to a picture frame hanging above the fireplace, obviously in an
attempt to avoid getting slammed by my body flopping all over the living room.
Note: If you ever feel compelled to 'mug' yourself with a taser, one note of
caution: there is no such thing as a "one second burst" when you zap yourself!
You will not let go of that thing until it is dislodged from your hand by a
violent thrashing about on the floor.. A "three second burst" would be considered
conservative? IT HURT LIKE HECK!!! A minute or so later (I can't be sure, as
time was a relative thing at that point), I collected my wits (what little I
had left), sat up and surveyed the landscape.
My bent reading glasses were on the mantel of the fireplace.
The recliner was upside down and about 8 feet or so from where
it originally was.
My triceps, right thigh and both nipples were still twitching.
My face felt like it had been shot up with Novocain, and my
bottom lip weighed 88 lbs. I had no control over the drooling.
Apparently I pooped on myself, but was too numb to know for sure and my sense
of smell was gone.
I saw a faint smoke cloud above my head which I believe came from my hair.
I'm still looking for my testicles and I'm offering a
significant reward for their safe return!!
P.S.
My wife loved the gift, and now regularly threatens me with it! 'If you think
Education is difficult, try being Stupid.

WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST?
OIL SPILLS
In November 1988, the American-owned Odyssey drilling rig burst into flames and split in two off the coast of Novia Scotia. The accident killed one person and poured 43 million gallons of oil into the sea.
132,000 Tons spilled
On April 11, 1991. The M/T Haven, a Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC), suffered a huge explosion off the coast of Genoa, Italy.Six crew members were killed, and the Mediterranean coasts of Italy and France remained polluted for the next 12 years..
144,000 Tons spilled.
On March 16, 1978, the Amoco Cadiz supertanker wrecked off the coast of Portsall, France. Ultimately, 240 miles of France’s Brittany coast suffered oil damage, with millions of dead mollusks and sea urchins washing ashore. This was the first time images of oil-coated sea birds were seen by the world.
223,000 Tons spilled
On August 6, 1983, a fire broke out aboard the Spanish tanker Castillo de Bellver, causing a massive explosion that spilled 78 million gallons of oil off the coast of Cape Town, South Africa. A shift in winds pushed the oil offshore, minimizing the disaster’s environmental effects.
252,000 Tons spilled
On May 28, 1991 The Liberian supertanker ABT Summer exploded off the coast of Angola.killing five crew members. Millions of gallons of oil leaked into the Atlantic Ocean.
260,000 Tons spilled
On February 10, 1983, at the height of the Iran-Iraq War, an oil tanker collided with the Nowruz platform in the Persian Gulf. The slick caught fire when Iraqi planes attacked, and it took Iranian workers more than six months to cap the well. Eleven people died in the process.
260,000 Tons spilled
In March 1992, 88 million gallons of oil spilled from a well in Fergana Valley, a densely populated industrial and agricultural zone in Uzbekistan. It remains the largest inland oil spill in history.
285,000 Tons spilled
On July 19, 1979, two gigantic supertankers collided off the Caribbean island of Little Tobago during a tropical rainstorm. The accident killed 26 crew members and dumped millions of gallons of crude oil into the sea.The Atlantic Empress and the Aegean Captain.
287,000 Tons spilled
On June 3, 1979 The exploratory oil well Ixtoc I exploded in the Gulf of Mexico, spewing 140 million gallons of oil into the open sea. It took control experts more than nine months to cap the spill and begin cleanup. Thousands of endangered sea turtles were airlifted to safety when the oil slick encroached upon their nesting site.
454,000-480,000 Tons spilled
In January 1991, Iraqi forces deliberately released more than 240 million gallons of crude oil into the Persian Gulf in an attempt to thwart an amphibious landing by the U.S. Marines. The resulting oil slick ravaged the area’s marine ecosystem, killing thousands of seabirds and endangering other wildlife. To date, it remains the worst disaster of its kind.
1,360,000-1,500,000 Tons spilled
On April 20, 2010, an explosion aboard the Deepwater Horizon, a large drilling rig leased by the oil company BP, killed 11 crew members and set off a massive blaze. The burning rig sank two days later into the Gulf of Mexico, unleashing a toxic gush of oil that has continued to leak at an alarming—and perhaps unprecedented—rate.
????????? Tons spilled
BP OIL HISTORY
1909, as the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, Ltd. It was renamed the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, Ltd., in 1935 and changed its name to the British Petroleum Company Limited in 1954. The name British Petroleum Company PLC was adopted in 1982. After merging with Amoco in 1998, the corporation took the name BP Amoco before assuming the name BP PLC in 2000. The company's headquarters are in London.
In 1914 the British government became the company's principal stockholder and remained so. Effective January 1, 1955, British Petroleum became a holding company. Beginning in 1977 the British government reduced its ownership of British Petroleum by selling shares to the public, and in the late 1980s the government turned over British Petroleum entirely to private ownership by selling its remaining shares. This cleared the way for British Petroleum to acquire Britoil PLC, an independent oil company that produced oil from the North Sea fields.
Alaska's Prudhoe Bay and in the United Kingdom sector of the North Sea, where, in 1965, British Petroleum made the first commercial discovery of natural gas and, in 1970, the first discovery of a major oil field. Beginning in 1970, BP merged its assets in the United States with those of the Standard Oil Company (Ohio), in which BP acquired a controlling interest. In 1987 BP acquired the remainder of the Standard Oil Company for almost $8 billion, thereby reinforcing its position as one of the world's leading oil companies. In merging with U.S. oil giant Amoco in 1998, the newly created BP Amoco became the largest petroleum concern in the world.!
It operates convenience stores and filling stations through brands such as BP, Aral, ARCO, and AM/PM
I WAS TAUGHT TO LOOK BACK AT THE PAST TO DETERMINE AWAY OF AVOIDING FUTURE MISTAKES!

WHERES OUR COMMON SENSE?
Thomas Paine was the author of a very important pamphlet called Common Sense that was published in 1776. He wrote a compelling argument for independence from Great Britain. His pamphlet convinced many colonists and founding fathers of the wisdom of open rebellion against the British if necessary. Further, he published another pamphlet called The Crisis during the Revolutionary War that helped spur on the soldiers to fight.
i sometimes want to revolt against things that are going on
in our country. i sometimes wonder what happened to us?
i sometimes wonder what we could do to get back on the
right track.
