La Raza (The Race) Calls for Speech Restriction


The National Council of La Raza (NCLR) is a leading organization in the fight for open borders, non-enforcement of immigration laws, and rights for illegal aliens. NCLR styles itself as a "civil rights" organization, but its name La Raza (The Race) suggests its real purpose. The black civil rights movement affirmed the importance of citizenship and the rule of law. NCLR undermines both, with the consequence of increasing clout of La Raza at the expense of other groups.


Recently, due to the defeat of amnesty and its other goals, the NCLR has stridently attacked immigration reformers as purveyors of "hate speech." Leading the charge is the organization's president, Janet Murguia. "Ms. Murguia," reported News York Times blogger Ariel Alexovich (2/1/08) "[argues] that hate speech should not be tolerated, even if such censorship were a violation of First Amendment rights. Said Murguia herself, "Everybody knows there is a line that can be crossed when it comes to free speech. And when free speech transforms to hate speech, we've got to cross that line."


In pursuit of her objectives, Murguia said she would call on the management of CNN to restrict the commentary of Lou Dobbs and Glenn Beck on illegal immigration. Both men are credited with raising public opposition to the illegal alien amnesty bill last summer.


Comment: "Hate speech" is a term intolerant people often use to discredit and silence speech that they hate. Ms. Murguia and people like her don't like free speech because their self-seeking agendas are difficult to justify.


Defend the free speech of Dobbs and Beck by contacting CNN and expressing support for their commentary.

Bah. Glenn Beck's a good man.

But Lou Dobbs couldn't find a clue if Colonel Mustard shoved one up his past his head with a candlestick in the library.

My dear Mr. Beamish,

You are right on Beck, and right on Dobbs...Except that horrible Dobbs has it right against illegals. It must stop, my good man. Some of us do NOT want to take over Mexico as you've suggested.

Stronger letter to follow,

Mrs. Peacock

Well, here's the solution:

1.) Increase border security (fence, land mines, machine gun nests, helicopter gunships)

2.) Strip the citizenship from and deport Americans that hire illegals

3.) Seize the assets of businesses and individuals that hire illegals and use the money to pay for border security

Either we is serious about it, or we ain't.
