More Wingnuts to Watch
I have stumbled upon a repugnant Web site named Mothers Against Illegal Aliens. It is quite disgusting and hateful. The woman who runs the group, Michelle Dallacroce, is the only name listed on the Web site.
She is not a native of Arizona as she has claimed.
Dallacroce spewed this gem of hate on Neil Cavuto's show on May 18, 2006:
Michelle asserted that there is no reason "that we have to have" immigrant women and children in the United States, since there are no jobs for "the women and the children [to] do ... other than their children's job is to dumb down the American children and overpopulate our schools."
She touts that no good deed goes unpunished, so what will be her punishment?

Sick.
And people say racism is on the decline ... all that lady needs now is a bedsheet and a pointy hat.
As much as these people will contest the argument, the fact is, the basis of their viewpoint boils down to racism, pure and simple.
Hell, even up here, where the country is based around a multi-national concept, where immigration is supposedly embraced and the melting pot has theoretically been replaced by the multicultural arena, still, here in the year 2008, racism runs rampant in Canada.
The same "they're taking our jobs" excuse is used by the same types of bigoted, lazy people who refuse to acknowledge that if they were better at their own jobs, if they got off their asses and put in the effort to make themselves indispensable, they would have nothing to fear.
And if they aren't worried about their own jobs, then what exactly is it they're worried about? Foreigners taking American jobs?
Translation: Coloured people taking white peoples' jobs. Oh, they love to argue that point, but last I checked, no one's complaining about Europeans getting jobs the US.
It's the same argument used when Affirmative Action came into play. It was a racist argument then, and it is a racist argument now.
Like I said: Sick.

And fear, which is the starting point of racism. This woman is obviously a fool, but a dangerous one because so many share her beliefs. A sad commentary on this country.
