We should all be working hard to keep the issue of the organized crime of illegal immigration and illegal employment focused on the law &#8211; where it should be.<\/p>\n<p>The brooding anger from Jerry Gonzalez and others who make their living advocating for illegal aliens is always expressed the same way: Anyone who demands secure borders and an equal application of the law &#8211; even for illegals who come from Latin America &#8211; are hateful bigots who are against Hispanics, immigration, children and Spanish speakers.<\/p>\n<p>Not many Americans are buying this rubbish. We all should ask from where the hate-speech is really coming.<\/p>\n<p>Gonzalez has a vested financial interest in keeping his race-baiting rhetoric on illegal immigration in the news. He works for former state Sen. Sam Zamarripa, who founded the far-left Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials &#8211; with such all-American luminaries as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.galeo.org\/friends.php\">Jane Fonda as founding friends<\/a>. Zamarripa also is a founding partner of United Americas Bank, which is openly <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hispanicmarket.net\/hispanic_business\/immigrants_tax_id_numbers\/\">making mortgage loans to illegal aliens<\/a>. Follow the money.<\/p>\n<p>Authored by Georgia state Sen. Chip Rogers, R-Woodstock, the Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedustininmansociety.com\/blog\/?p=178\">SB 529<\/a>) does nothing more than require governments and residents in Georgia to obey long-standing federal immigration laws using available federal tools.<\/p>\n<p>How un-American, huh? Gonzalez and Zamarripa fought furiously to prevent its passage.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing could be more &#8220;anti-immigrant&#8221; &#8211; or anti-Hispanic &#8211; than to associate real, legal immigrants, who join the American family according to American law, with illegals who demand to choose which laws apply and those who make a living out of screaming<a href=\"http:\/\/studentorgs.utexas.edu\/mecha\/archive\/plan.html\"> &#8220;racism<\/a>&#8221; at the majority of Americans who simply want their rule of law back.<\/p>\n<p>D.A.
