Spain's cautionary example on illegal alien amnesties

From this:

...Spain offered four amnesties for illegal immigrants between 1985 and 2000. None of them slowed the flow of undocumented migrants. In February 2005, Spain tried again, announcing a grant of temporary residence to illegal aliens who could prove that they had been in the country for at least six months. The Spanish government legalized 700,000 during a three-month window. The plan did not stem the tide. Instead, the influx of illegal immigrants from Africa increased dramatically. The government recently acknowledged that 7,500 illegals arrived in the Canary Islands during the first half of 2006, compared to 4,751 in all of 2005. Spanish police documented about 12,000 attempts by Moroccan migrants to enter the Spanish town of Melilla. Illegal border crossing has been matched with a skyrocketing number of cases of fraud from individuals trying to qualify for amnesty, overwhelming immigration officials, who have been unable to cope with processing, screening, and adjudicating the flood of amnesty applications...

Great Point Petit Bourgeois, but british will someday be muslim rule for race and political reasons, in this end game its all about mass murder, see birth rights of 30 million mexicans, its sad to see a great nation being killed.

see deadwood june 11 that is our new future of the North American Union and the old world will follow with 20 years and someday you will see mass graves here for mexico and bin laden and many will understand what real evil is.

No wonder Gibraltar overwhelmingly rejected Spanish governance and chose to remain under british rule, effectively rejecting a form a reconquista-lite.

dchamil, this government would shot all Americans if it could, "like yesterday", If it could and would open its doors for slavery if it could, and it would never think a thing about killing millions of American, because the people in power are not American but the enemies of all free people. understand one fact where is bush on the borders? "no he is just following orders of others", for the ideals of one world under total evil.

eh is right but the government will never do anything that would make the drug dealers mad.

at any rate, do any of you hear anything from our so called government about the 30 million mexican who have the right to claim U.S. citizenship by birth rights? none of the rats in washington want to talk about that one.

Nations have traditionally defended their borders with whatever armed force is required, and we may well have to do the same.

"it is about race, civilization and society and traditions"

I agree -- I think I've made that clear by many of my comments here. eh

Indeed you have, eh, perfectly clearly. But this is about common sense as well. Anybody who has raised a child - or for that matter anybody who has BEEN a child - knows that if you want more of a particular action, reward it; if you want less, punish it. If you want to stop illegal immigration, punish it, don't reward it.

"it is about race, civilization and society and traditions"

I agree -- I think I've made that clear by many of my comments here.

eh, "it has always been the purpose", its has always been the tool", and its working for one reason people still do not understand what is coming.
bush and business hate our freedoms and will use the third world people and mass population to kill us and to take us down into a hell on earth, the global rats need 300 million more here to do just that, the fact is if people do not start to see this evil for what it is, "we the people", will become nothing but one big mass of enslaved third world monkeys.

and eh it is about race, civilization and society and traditions and philosophy of life and death and it is about freedom of ideals and that is why the rats want most whites dead and want third world people for the enslavement of all people, you can use a hispanic/blacks and others anyway you want by telling that joke of a human he or she has a real enemy and that enemy will become the white race, remember only 15 percent of the worlds population is white and 85 percent are black brown and yellow and others like the mideast monkeys, when you become the enemy of the third worlds people and that people are lead by whites who hate yoi, watch-out! the death of millions will follow.

"None of them slowed the flow of undocumented migrants."

This was never the purpose, and only an idiot would expect it, as what is causing the flow is the huge discrepancy in living standards between EU nations like Spain and the largely muslim and African countries these people are coming from, and giving amnesty to illegals does nothing about that. In fact, as Spain is now experiencing it only attracts more, but in the case of Spain this is also somewhat due to geography.

Spain (stupidly) gave amnesty for the same reasons it is being talked about in the US now: feel-good humanitarianism combined with rhetoric about economic reality.
