This is why I am against any amnesty, any concessions, anything to these barbarians. 

They are not here to be citizens.  They are here to plunder and attack the country.

This is the typical voter Obama is relying on for 2012. 

Granted not all liberals fall into this mess, since there is a small but vocal liberal wing who is sincere in their beliefs.  We have a few on this board. 

But the majority are just like  these barbarian looking for plunder the treasury.

You guys need to come to Cali for a week and see just how bad it really is. There are entire towns that were overrun and are now essentially disfunctional gang-land border towns.

NOTHING good comes from illegals moving to an area in any way, shape or form. Nothing.

How so?

The illegals are friendly, hardworking folk... they don't commit crime.  You must be a racist to think otherwise.

Democrats are going to force the amnesty issue thru before they lost momentum and majority in the govt. Then they are going to buy them off indefinitely thru social handouts, thus ensuring themselves another 12 million votes every election.

That was a lil thug wrapped up in a Mexican flag, using it as a cap... And he was a idiot...I can't stand people who wave (what ever flag) in America, it's like you are not proud to be an American, only here to get the benefits that America provides...

Also, if you say you are taking over, what have you done with your own country?

And for the record, N-I-G-G-A is not a racial slur, it's a equal oppurnity word ;)

Many of us have come across N-I-G-G-A's of many different races, colors, ethnic groups, throughout our lives... but we never thought of them as that. For instance, both the lil smurf that was yelling it, the Texan that it was directed too could be called that.

Now, I know there will be some white people that will respond and be pissed, because they don't ever want to be considered a N-I-G-G-A, because that word is associated with black folks, but it
would be only racist to only associate something that means ignorant with black folks right? ;)  


BTW, Illegals are nothing more than the "pimped" underclass. Now, as the saying goes, "Pimping ain't easy", but imagine if you are the ho, in this case, the illegal, and you don't realize you are truly being pimped :-\.

Indentured servitude---> Slavery--->use of Chinese labor to build railroads--->European immigrants of the late 1800's early 1900's--->black share croppers--->more Euro and Latin American Imm.--->Ahhh, you get the Idea

There is always the underclass, and illegals are that. Except MS-13 controls our borders, not us :-X

Wow, ...getting all worked up, ready to smash someone's brains in with a hammer because they want to proudly fly a flag of another country in your presence. Is that on par with wanting to kill someone because they drew a cartoon?  :-\  Or is it the fact that the eagle on the flag has a worm in it's talons? I know the bald eagle is a highly revered symbol of the USA. Is seeing it with a worm as offensive to Americans, as seeing a depiction of Mohammed is to Muslims?

First off, that flag is illegal. We have the flags of different countries waving proudly all through out this country.
You oughtta see the place when the world cup rolls around. We see Italian, Brazilian and Portuguese flags flown outside the homes of Canadians who are not even of those ethnic origins. So a little Mexican American punk flew a Mexican flag. big whoop. Somehow it's a crime... despite the other guy proudly flying his stars & stripes? Secondly, the Mexican flag, is not a Nazi flag. Mexico didn't butcher 6,000,000 people, and for you to even entertain the thought that the two are comparable really should make you give your head a shake.

Of course I thought it was stupid. There was more than enough stupid going around in that clip. The kid was walking away, and got taunted by an adult who should have known better. So the idiot comes back for more, instead of continuing to walk away, despite his friend having the good sense to restrain him, thinking he was all hard. He got his little punk ass arrested for it, and there were hostilities on both sides. So now his buddies are pissed he's been arrested, and start talking stupid shit, knowing full well they are playing on fears, and pissing people off by saying it and will inflame passions. ...and not unlike those whackjobs who erupted in violence over a cartoon, people are talking about erupting in violence over a national flag? ...a flag flown by a punk kid reflecting the ethnic heritage of it's holder? ...in a state that once was part of the country the flag represents? ...and displayed to a small handful of people who themselves are proudly flying a flag representing their ethnic origins as well? Oh yeah, I can see where that would justifiably inflame passions more so that a cartoon published by a national media publication disseminated to an entire nation, deliberately meant to insult demean & degrade millions of people at once... Ya, I know what he meant. Do you know what I mean? I mean he's been reading too much Billy Mimnaugh!  >:(

Post by: Soul Crusher on August 25, 2009, 06:28:20 AM
George S. Patton and Winston S. Churchill had more in common than just both being great men.

In 1916, Patton was the officer in charge of the worlds first "motorized" military action.

The following is the story of Patton's courageous charge against a bandit held stronghold. It made history because it was the very first instance on record of a motorcar being used in an actual combat situation by the American Army.

Lieutenant Patton was officially assigned to the 10th Cavalry, but had been attached to Troop H of the 11th Cavalry as an Aide de Camp to General Pershing.

During the first week of May in 1916, troops had been deployed in at attempt to locate Julio Cardenas. Cardenas was Captain of the "Doradoes", the "bodyguard" for Francisco Villa. In accordance with typical Mexican Revolutionary decorum, he called himself "General" Cardenas.

West of the town of Rubio, near Lake Itascate, the 16th Infantry detachment met with Patton and his troop of cavalry. Patton was informed of the existence of a small ranch nearby called San Miguelito, where the wife and mother of Cardenas was reported to be living.

Patton led his troop to the ranch and spent a few hours there in reconnaissance. He familiarized himself with the area, the location of the hacienda, corral, fences, and gates.

The following week, on May 14th, to be exact, Pershing was made cognizant of a shortage of corn, which was the staple food for the soldiers in the expedition.

Pershing directed Patton to take three Dodge Touring cars to nearby haciendas in order to purchase the needed supplies of corn.

With Patton went one corporal, six privates, and a civilian named Lunt. Mr. Lunt was the interpreter for the group.

The first and second stops made were at Las Coyotes and Rubio. Neither place had adequate supplies of corn, so the party continued to Las Cienegas. Patton, knowing that Cardenas was headquartered there, surrounded the village just in case the Mexican might be there. Unfortunately, only corn was found at Las Cienegas.

The trip to Las Cienegas was not a total loss, however. The uncle to whom Patton had spoken had somehow aroused Patton's suspicions that Cardenas might be at the San Miguelito hacienda. Patton decided to visit the rancho located some six to eight miles to the north. Recent reports had indicated that Cardenas might have as many as 20 men with him, so Patton felt he should investigate cautiously.

Lieutenant Patton halted his automobiles on the reverse slope of a hill about a mile from the hacienda. Taking the leading automobile, Lunt, one soldier, and the driver, Patton ordered the rest of the party to remain hidden.

Patton would pass the house and stop at the northwest corner. The soldier and driver were to remain with the automobile to cover the west and north sides of the house. Patton and Lunt would go around the north side to the front of the house.

The second and third automobiles were to halt at the southwest corner. Six of the men were ordered to cover the west and the south sides. Two of them moved around the south side to meet Patton in front of the east face of the hacienda.

The corporal remained with the group at the automobiles and the order was for all of them to assemble in the event of any serious fighting.

Since Patton had been to the hacienda previously, he knew where he was going and he quickly left Lunt and the other soldiers behind.

Arriving at the east face, Patton saw an old man and a young boy near the fence in front of the gate, skinning a steer.

It was only a moment before Patton saw three horsemen emerge from the hacienda. They were armed with rifles and pistols. Catching sight of Patton, they wheeled their mounts and made for the southeast corner of the ranch. Upon reaching there, they encountered the other soldiers advancing from the south.

Patton held his fire. According to typical American custom, the politicians in Washington had sent Pershing into Mexico with explicit orders that his men may not "initiate" any action, that is to say, attack the enemy. They could, however, defend themselves if they were fired upon.

The Mexican "General" and his two men had turned their horses again, heading north. Apparently they thought that they would have a much better chance against the lone figure of Patton. Unfortunately, they had no way of knowing that they would be going against one of the finest marksmen in the United States Army, as a matter of fact, the whole world. Patton had, in 1912, set a world's record at the Olympics at Stockholm, Sweden during practice for the pistol competition.

At a distance of about 20 yards, the Mexican opened fire on Patton. Patton returned the fire with a deliberate 5 rounds. One of the rounds hit the lead rider and broke his arm. Another round went into the belly of the horse he was riding.

By this time, the other American soldiers had made their way around the corner and had started shooting. Patton ducked back around the corner to get out of their line of fire. Patton reloaded his single action Colt.

The other two riders galloped by him at a range of ten paces, firing at and MISSING both Patton and Lunt.

Patton returned the fire, hitting the nearest Mexican's horse, which fell on the rider. Patton actually waited for the man to extricate himself from underneath the animal. When he was free and he rose to fire at Patton, Patton killed him with one shot, fired from under his left arm.

The third Mexican swerved his horse to his right and galloped to the east. Patton and two other soldiers opened up at the fleeing bandito.

Mr. Lunt, being a civilian, was unarmed. He could not join in the shooting, and was, indeed, happy that he was with Lieutenant Patton. The third Mexican met a swift death.

More gunfire was heard by Patton at the southwest corner when the corporal and three men were posted. The first man that Patton had wounded was running along the south wall. With all of the Americans firing at him, he returned the fire. He then stopped shooting. When he was approached, he raised his left arm apparently in surrender.

He then drew his pistol with his right hand, fired once, and crumpled to the ground, dead.

It was found upon examination that he had been hit only once. Patton's Colt .45 had put a bullet through his left forearm and into his chest. He was the first one shot, the last to die, and he was identified as Cardenas. The second man was Jaun Gaza. The third man was never identified.

The old "Life Goes On" adage was well proven by the old man and the young boy. All through the gun battle they had quietly continued to skin the steer on which they had been working.

It speaks volumes for the discipline and courage of the American soldiers in that they did not fire at them, as well as the others.

After securing the roof of the hacienda, Patton entered the front door and searched the premises for any other armed enemy. No one was present except women and children.

The three dead "Villistas" were then strapped across the fenders of the Dodge Touring cars. As a precaution, the telephone lines into the town of Rubio were cut. Although the town was filled with Villa sympathizers and the sight of the dead Mexicans caused much excitement, the party of Americans made it through without incident.

Patton reached camp and he interrupted Pershing in a meeting. Pershing was furious until he saw the three bodies that Patton had dumped at the front of Pershing's tent. From then on, Pershing referred to Patton as his "Bandit".

When the wire services picked up the story, Patton was an immediate national hero. His adventure was the only exciting action to come out of the entire Punitive Expedition.

Oddly enough, the only other interesting occurrence in the Expedition also involved Patton.

Patton had accompanied some troopers during the capture of another "Villista" by the name of Pedro Lugan. Much to Patton's disappointment there were no gunfights involved in this affair.

In a letter to Beatrice dated May 17, 1916, Patton wrote, "... you are probably wondering if my conscience hurts me for killing a man. It does not. I feel about it just as I did when I got my first swordfish; surprised at my luck."

Most certainly not troubled by his conscience, he happily carved two notches into the left "Eagle" grip of his Colt .45. He was now a blooded soldier and proud of it.

With the exception of the Cardenas Affair and the Lugan capture, Patton was bored with the monotony of the overall expedition.

His adventures, though, were enough to make up his mind that Field Operations was the place for him. That was definitely where the action would be, if there ever was any.

It was reported to U.S. newspapers by one correspondent that at the end of the gunfight at San Miguelito Patton said, "The motorcar is the modern warhorse." Unless that story is wholly apocryphal, then with that pronouncement, Patton officially ushered motorization into warfare.
