Anti-Free Speech Fanatics at Harvard Threaten Disruption and Violence
Cambridge
, Ma.-Harvard University seems to be resigned to suffer the same embarrassing fate as Columbia
University in 2006 as they scamper to rescind their previous invitation to Jim
Gilchrist, founder and president of the Minuteman Project, to participate in its immigration symposium scheduled for this
Saturday, October 17 in Cambridge , Ma.
Despite appearing at last February’s symposium at the Harvard Law School on immigration law with invited panelists
ranging from legislators and government officials to academics and private practitioners from across the political spectrum,
campus philosophical fanatics have terrorized the Harvard Undergraduate Legal Committee (HULC) with disruptive threats if
Jim Gilchrist attends their proposed convention.
“For almost
six months student sponsors of Harvard’s Public Interest and Law Conference have planned for my appearance at Harvard
University, but the minute they received threats from fellow students these pre-law students shied away from defending free
speech,” Minuteman Project president Jim Gilchrist said. “That future graduates of the most renowned
university in the world are literally afraid to support the very cornerstone of the foundation of our nation, namely ‘free
speech,’ ought to frighten anyone looking to America as the beacon of liberty, freedom, and justice for all.”
With just five days notice, after over five months of planning his appearance, HULC gave Gilchrist notice that it was
forced to rescind its invitation due to serious threats from unnamed anarchist radicals on the Harvard campus. The spokesperson
for HULC said the threats were sourced in only some errant students. He said no faculty members were involved in the
threat to wreak havoc upon the Cambridge , Massachusetts campus.
The
HULC posted the following vague announcement on its web site Tuesday, Oct. 13:
Regarding the Participation
of Mr. Jim Gilchrist at PI&L 2009
The mission of the PI&L Conference is to educate and provide a forum of productive
discussion on how to use law and public service as tools for social justice. With this mission in mind, we encourage intellectual,
honest and respectful discourse by individuals and the organizations that they represent. Unfortunately, Mr. Gilchrist's
participation in the conference on the behalf of the Minutemen Project was not compatible with providing an environment
for civil, educational, and productive discourse on immigration, and we cannot host him at this time.
[bold
emphasis added]
Sincerely, The Harvard Undergraduate
Legal Committee
“For the past
two years Harvard has welcomed the open expression of ideas from the Minuteman Project during similar symposiums,” Gilchrist
said. “It is shocking that free speech, the most coveted principle of any free nation, is now something that
ordinary Americans, including our wounded combat veterans, apparently now must fight for. I never dreamed that
Harvard University would eventually
allow free speech on its campus to be doled out only to the meanest thugs wielding the biggest clubs.”
Gilchrist, whose 5600-word essay on immigration was published by Georgetown University Law School in 2008,
was also invited to submit an immigration-related article for publication by the Harvard Journal on Legislation earlier this
year.
In 2006 Columbia
University and Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York City apologized
to the Minuteman Project for the attempt by members of that school’s Chicano Political Caucus and International Socialist
Organization to physically pummel Gilchrist and throw him from the stage when he attempted to speak at an event sponsored
by a Columbia University political
club.
Gilchrist, the president
of the Minuteman Project, is a retired California CPA and a former newspaper reporter. He founded the “multi-ethnic”
Minuteman Project in 2004 to encourage public debate on what he refers to as a chaotic and careless attitude by our nation’s
political governors toward our nation’s physical security, its domestic tranquility and economic prosperity. He
is a passionate defender of free speech and an avid supporter of law enforcement organizations. He is a decorated veteran
of the U.S. Marine Corps and the recipient of the Purple Heart award for wounds sustained while serving with an infantry company
in Vietnam in 1968 and 1969.
Ok, America, here is some more outrageous ignorance from one of your government officials. This time it's from YOUR Homeland Security Chief, Janet Napolitano, who was
recently quoted on CNN as saying "illegal immigration is not really a crime". WTF???*&^&U%!!!!! The following is an
excerpt from a recent Minuteman Project email:
DHS Chief
Napolitano: Illegal Immigration Is Not a Crime
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano stunned many listeners during an
appearance on CNN when she asserted that illegal immigration is really not a crime.
In an interview with CNN's John King last week, Napolitano discussed Sheriff
Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz., a strict enforcer of immigration laws who says he wants illegal aliens to be prosecuted
and jailed.
King said: "A lot of Democrats in Congress want you to investigate him. They
think he is over the line. He says he is just enforcing the law and the problem is the federal government."
Napolitano responded: "Sheriff Joe . knows that there aren't enough law enforcement
officers, courtrooms or jail cells in the world to do what he is saying.
"What we have to do is target the real evil-doers in this business, the employers
who consistently hire illegal labor, the human traffickers who are exploiting human misery.
"And yes, when we find illegal workers, yes, appropriate action, some of which
is criminal, most of that is civil, because crossing the border is not a crime per se. It is civil. But anyway, going after
those as well."
The fact is, crossing the border without authorization is a crime. The statute
reads: "Any alien who enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration
officers . . . shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6
months, or both." - NEWSMAX
I will be looking up contact information for this traitor and will be posting
here, and on my anti-illegal immigration page, late night. Everyone please, if you're as frustrated, or infuriated by this
as I am, you should not only write to her, but write all of your elected officials and let them know about this and how you
feel about it. This is a TOTAL INSULT to the American people, just like Nancy Pelosi's little stunt awhile back!

Pelosi Tells Illegal Immigrants That Work Site
Raids are Un-American. The speaker of the House told a group
of both legal and illegal immigrants recently that enforcement of immigration laws in the United States is "un-American."
By William Lajeunesse
Wednesday,
March 18, 2009
March 14: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Caif., tells an audience that included illegal immigrants that
enforcement of America's immigration law is "un-American." (FNC)
EXCLUSIVE: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently told
a group of both legal and illegal immigrants and their families that enforcement of existing immigration laws, as currently
practiced, is "un-American."
The speaker, condemning raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, referred
to the immigrants she was addressing as "very, very patriotic."
"Who in this country would not want to change a policy
of kicking in doors in the middle of the night and sending a parent away from their families?" Pelosi told a mostly Hispanic
gathering at St. Anthony's Church in San Francisco.
"It must be stopped....What value system is that? I think it's
un-American. I think it's un-American."
Pelosi said she was invited to the church by Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill., as
part of his 17-city, cross-country tour called United Families, which he says is intended to put a human face on the immigration
debate.
"We think that families are the cornerstone of our society and our nation, and an immigration system should
preserve those families, not destroy them," Gutierrez told FOX News Capitol Hill Producer Chad Pergram on Tuesday.
The
congressman is collecting petitions that ask President Obama to "stop the immigration raids and deportations that are tearing
our marriages, families and children apart." He is expected to present those petitions when Hispanic members of Congress meet
with the President Wednesday.
On Saturday
night, Pelosi joined Gutierrez before a cheering crowd at St. Anthony's chanting, "Si se puede," or "Yes we can."
Referring
to work site enforcement actions by ICE agents, Pelosi said, "We have to have a change in policy and practice and again ...
I can't say enough, the raids must end. The raids must end.
"You are special people. You're here on a Saturday night
to take responsibility for our country's future. That makes you very, very patriotic."
"I was embarrassed by what she
said," said Rick Oltman, with Californians for Population Stabilization, an anti-illegal immigrant group. "Exhorting illegal
aliens for taking responsibility for our country's future.... In fact, sitting there in the audience.... I really resented
that comment."
"I think it was pandering to the crowd but also insulting to American citizens who consider themselves
to be patriotic, who obey the rule of law," said Oltman, who shot a video of the rally.
The sad part of course, is, where is all
the American anger about this?? Americans continue to be asleep at the wheel over this issue. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!
If you are as angry about this as I am,
pls write or call Nancy Pelosi's office at the following:

ANOTHER BORDER OFFICIAL GONE BAD: (Just more proof that border protection may be up to us!)
Affidavit:Border official hired illegal
immigrants - From Associated Press
December 05, 2008 12:31 PM EST
BOSTON - A top Homeland Security official in Boston has been
accused of repeatedly hiring illegal immigrants to clean her home.
Lorraine Henderson, the regional director of Homeland Security,
Customs, and Border Protection, was arrested Friday at her home in Salem. She was expected to appear in federal court later
Friday.
Henderson is responsible for stopping illegal aliens from
entering the country through the Port of Boston.
But according to an affidavit, for several years Henderson
employed a Brazilian housekeeper who was an illegal immigrant. She also allegedly hired two other illegal immigrants, even
after fellow agents warned her it was against the law.
Henderson was arrested after one of the women wore a wire
and recorded Henderson telling the woman to "be careful" because once you're deported, "you will never be back."
Barack Obama's
Possible "Red Dawn"
In 1984 "Red Dawn" played in
theaters all across America.
The gist of the very popular movie starring Patrick Swayze
is that America has been invaded by communist military
forces.
Americans who resist are rounded up and sent to internment
camps. Those that own guns are pursued and persecuted
with extreme vigor. Mass exterminations are common.
A group of feisty American men and women begin fighting
the invaders for their survival and to free imprisoned Americans. They called
themselves "Wolverines". The movie was very well received and it struck a nerve with
many that saw it including myself.
Fast forward to today's America. We have just elected
a Marxist president who on the face of easily available information has no love for America.
His attendance of Rev. Jeremiah Wrights' Black Liberation Theology, America hating, "God
Damn America" church is all that is needed to size up Mr. "O". His wife, Michelle,
appears to be an angry woman who also does not like America, a country that has made it
possible for the two of them to become multi-millionaires that live in a mansion and
who will soon become the unworthy occupants of the White House.
Barack Hussein Obama, our newly elected president
didn't like his American name, Barry Dunham. He has never wanted to identify very strongly
with America or with whites unless they are nut jobs like Bill Ayres, the former leader
of the Weathermen. This is why he became Barrack Obama.
Barack has said that he will sit down at the table
with terrorists and the enemies of America and make "nice" with all of them as only
a communist can. He will do well with Russia, China, Cuba, Vietnam, Venezuela and North
Korea. A meeting of the comrades will occur...don't you doubt it.
Is it inconceivable that he will make tight relations
with these countries, bring their armed forces in for cross training, station some of them
here in the USA and when he is ready orchestrate a chain of events that will culminate
in the complete overthrow of our system of governance as we have known it?
The muscle to back him up will already be here. Every
military secret that we possess can be made available to our enemies..his friends... by
comrade Barack.
It would be wise for him to have a national youth
corps that has infiltrated every home in America and have them report on their families
and friends.
In order to completely control us and make
Americans incapable of fighting back he must seize all weapons from us and void
the second ammendment. He must institute gun control.
Isn't this where we are headed now?
Do you think that we could be in for a " Red
Dawn" ? I do. 
PS Obama has yet to produce his original certificate of
birth.
He and our government must not be allowed to hand over
presidential authority to him until his citizenship status
is
made clear to all of us. Currently World Net Daily
has a petition that they would like for us to sign.
The demand is that Obama make available
all documents, certificates, scholastic records etc in
order
to resolve without question the status of his citizenship.
update Aug 10: More travesty (what else is new) on the
illegal alien front........
Ramos & Compean case: Osvaldo Aldrete-Davilla ONLY Sentenced to 9.5 Years!
http://www.kfoxtv.com/news/17110731/detail.htmlUPDATED: 3:58 pm MDT August 6, 2008
EL PASO, Texas -- An admitted drug smuggler shot by a pair of now-former Border
Patrol agents has been sentenced Wednesday to nearly a decade in federal prison. A federal judge in El Paso sentenced
27-year-old Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila. The sentence after a federal appeals court last week upheld lengthy sentences for
the agents who were convicted in the 2005 shooting. Aldrete was shot in the buttocks while fleeing from an abandoned marijuana
load. He was sentenced to 9 1/2 years for his role in a second smuggling effort months after he was wounded. The sentencing
breaks down as follows: Count III: Possession with intent to distribute 100 kilograms or more of marijuana -- 57 months,
5 years supervised release, $100 special assessment Count IV: Conspiracy to import 100 kilograms or more of marijuana
-- 57 months, 5 years supervised release, $100 special assessment Count III and IV are to run concurrently. Count
V: Conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute 100 Kilograms or more of marijuana -- 57 months, 5 years supervised
release, $100 special Assessment Count VI: Possession with intent to distribute 100 kilograms or more of marijuana --
57 months, 5 years supervised release Count V and VI are to run concurrently. Aldrete pleaded guilty in April 2007
to two counts of possession with the intent to distribute a controlled substance, and one count each of conspiracy to import
a controlled substance and conspiracy to possess a controlled substance.

Appeals Court Upholds Prison Terms For Border Agents
The 5th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals upheld most of the convictions against former agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean. Monday, July
28, 2008 Listen to Steve Gregory's Report
A federal appeals court has refused to throw out lengthy prison sentences for
two U.S. Border Patrol agents convicted of shooting an unarmed illegal immigrant and lying about it.The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans on Monday upheld most of the convictions
against former agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean.
The appeals court vacated their convictions for
tampering with an official proceeding, but the three-judge panel refused to reverse the convictions that resulted in their
lengthy sentences.
Ramos and Compean were convicted in 2006 and sentenced to 11 and 12 years in prison, respectively.
Both men claimed they shot at Osvaldo Davila, an illegal immigrant
and admitted drug smuggler, in self defense.

More violence by hispanics in the US. This time, a group of older high
school football players hazed a group of younger players by sodomizing them with broomsticks!!!! These are high school students
doing this!! All of the football officials have resigned and may face charges along with the assaulting students. WTF is wrong
with people?? Damn psychos, ya know I keep telling people, this is good reason why we need to bring back the draft and send
these a-holes overseas. Either that or automatically put them in prison as soon as they're 18. If they want to terrorize people,
go terrorize the enemy, not your fellow American!
Americans: Both Presidential candidates betrayed you by speaking to one

OF THESE CANDIDATES!!!! Here are some posts from Save Our State's message boards

FIRE COALITION DENOUNCES NATIONAL COUNCIL OF THE RACE
The FIRE Coalition,
a nationwide coalition of 49 organizations dedicated to ending the illegal alien invasion, has denounced the decisions by
presidential candidates, Barack Obama and John McCain, to address the self-titled racist group National Council of La Raza
(NCLR) at their convention this weekend in San Diego.
Two coalition partners, the San Diego
Minutemen and You Don’t Speak for Me, a group of Hispanic Americans who
oppose illegal immigration, will lead a protest on Sunday, July 13th at 10am in front of the convention center to coincide
with Barack Obama’s address to La Raza which is scheduled for 11am. “The candidates’ blatant pandering to
a racist organization in order to promote their anti-American agenda and gain the votes of those who would subvert our laws
shows Americans where their loyalties lie,” says Jason Mrochek, the co-founder and executive director of the FIRE Coalition.
The
FIRE Coalition expects Barack Obama and John McCain, as presidential candidates and self-proclaimed patriotic Americans, to
publicly denounce the organizers for their anti-American rhetoric and agendas.
Recently, Obama slipped up at a campaign event and was filmed
saying, “Instead of worrying about whether immigrants can learn English -- they'll learn English -- you need to make
sure your child can speak Spanish. You should be thinking about, how can your child become bilingual?” while McCain
is known for his commitment, “[Comprehensive Immigration Reform] will be my top priority -- yesterday, today and
tomorrow.”
National Council of La Raza (or “the race”) maintains the slogan, “A united
[Hispanic] race will never be defeated” which is chanted in Spanish at pro-illegal alien protests and is a rallying
cry for supporters of the NCLR agenda of Hispanic supremacy in culture and politics, separatism within America’s
borders, and the reconquering of United States sovereign land they feel was taken unfairly from them.
Other issues
promoted by National Council of The Race include:
- In-state tuition for illegal aliens - Illegal alien drivers’
licenses - Magnet schools and curriculums (which already exist and are paid for by American taxpayers) within the
United States that teach anti-American history. A common curriculum portrays the ‘white race’ as oppressors
and thieves. - Opposition to a border fence between Mexico and the United States - Spanish language bilingualism in
America - Ending the use of America’s national motto, “E Pluribus Unum”, “Out of Many, One”.
- Non-assimilation of Hispanics into American culture - Financially supporting (with grants given from the U.S. government) anti-American
organizations such as MEChA with their motto “Por La Raza Todo, Fuera de la Raza Nada” (“for The Race everything,
for those outside The Race, nothing”) - Undermining and fighting against enforcement of America’s immigration
laws - Fighting cooperation between law enforcement at the local, state, and federal level - Use of federally granted
funds to get out the vote for supporters of La Raza’s radical pro-Mexico agenda
The FIRE Coalition is a nationwide
coalition of groups and individuals dedicated to Federal Immigration Reform and Enforcement. Our coalition represents federal,
state, and local interests in stopping the illegal alien invasion. FIRE Coalition’s efforts extend beyond federal matters
to include state and local concerns, as well.
We need all of San Diego to come out Sunday and reject Barack Obama and reject
the racist La Raza Convention where he will be speaking. He is scheduled to give his speech during the brunch from 11-1. Our
coalition of pro-America groups will have a joint press conference at 10am and protest til Noon.
Yesterday, BHO told
Americans that we had all better teach our children Spanish (watch shocking video below)! Now why would this socialist moron
say such an outrageous, anti-American statement? Can this guy stop pandering to Mexicans and illegal aliens for one minute?
Apparently not!
Sunday we will greet him at the Convention Center with a few choice words in his least favorite
language: ENGLISH!
Calling all American citizens in the Southern California
area! La Raza is in full attack mode! They want their reconquista now!
"The (Brown) Race", fresh from
their "day of honor" from San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders, has launched a new campaign of hate and lies against all the American
people! They continue to lie to the media and claim their mission is just to assist American Hispanics, but a cruise around
their website shows strong ties and partnerships with anti-American Hate groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center and other
socialist, pro-Mexican invasion groups (see hate video below recently posted to their site)!
Also below see the shocking
press release La Raza put out yesterday calling for McCain and Obama to "rein in" Americans calling for border security and
immigration enforcement! Their threats now resemble the criminal threats made by radical Mexican alien activist Enrique Morones
when he threatens to tear down the Pete Wilson Statue and the San Diego Minutemen freeway sign! These terrorists continue
to threaten Americans and our American governments continue to do nothing about it!
This is war, folks! They are using
their tens of millions of dollars and their new-found mainstream influence to attack American citizens now from all sides.
Who will rise up to stop them? The Bush Administration? Not a chance. Only the citizens can regain control
of America and keep it free! Speak up now or be enslaved forever!
Disgusting anti-American propaganda video
posted on The Race's website: http://www.nclr.org/content/news/detail/52538/
NEW VIDEO SHOWS LINK BETWEEN ANTI-IMMIGRANT GROUPS AND WHITE SUPREMACISTS Washington,
DC—“What if all the leading anti-immigration groups were founded by the same man, funded by the same organization,
and [had] ties to White supremacy?” So begins Heidi Beirich’s narrative in “Behind the Veil”—a
new video being released today that details the common origins of many of the country’s leading anti-immigration groups
and their ties to White supremacists. In the video, Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC)—the nation’s
premier monitor of hate groups—discusses SPLC’s research on organizations such as the Federation for American
Immigration Reform (FAIR), the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS), NumbersUSA, and the Social Contract Press. Beirich’s
narrative, in particular, draws connections between anti-immigrant forces and one of their founders/funders, retired ophthalmologist
John Tanton. Beirich shows how the more extreme groups are designed to coexist with those that appear to the public and media
as more moderate. “There is a debate to be had over immigration,” says the National Council of La Raza (NCLR)
President and CEO Janet Murguía, “and we’re anxious to have it. But, so far, the rhetoric has not been about policy,
it has been about hate (by the Mexican agents). No good policy has ever come from the demonization
of one group by another (and yet NCLR does it everyday). The hate has got to stop.” Produced
by NCLR, “Behind the Veil” is the last of three videos that are part of a campaign to divorce hate groups and
hate speech from the immigration debate. As with the organizations featured in the other two videos, the Anti-Defamation League
(“Code Words of Hate”) and the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights (“America’s Immigration Legacy”),
the SPLC has no public policy stake in the immigration debate (yeah, right). All three videos can
be found on NCLR’s (propaganda) website: www.WeCanStopTheHate.org. Heidi's

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Jul 11, 2008 NCLR CHALLENGES MCCAIN AND
OBAMA TO REIN IN PARTY RHETORIC ON IMMMIGRATION
San Diego, CA– The country's largest national Latino
civil rights and advocacy organization today challenged presumptive presidential nominees Senators Barack Obama and John McCain
to rein in offensive and charged rhetoric on immigration in their respective parties' congressional campaigns this
fall. The challenge comes just days before they are both scheduled to address the National Council of La Raza’s (NCLR)
Annual Conference in San Diego.
"Senators McCain and Obama have both been leaders in the immigration reform effort
and have urged a thoughtful and well-informed debate on this difficult issue,” said Janet Murguía,
NCLR President and CEO. "But others in their respective political parties are using inaccurate and inflammatory language to
inspire fear and resentment against immigrants for the sake of advancing their political campaigns."
Murguía pointed
to campaign brochures and television advertisements by both parties, including a Democratic Campaign Committee leaflet and
a blog posting on the website of North Carolina Republican Senator Elizabeth Dole. The materials that Murguía found offensive
include:
- A charged leaflet by the Missouri State Democratic Committee, which shows a yellow
traffic sign depicting a running family; the leaflet attacks Representative Sam Graves (R-MO), charging him with allowing
five million "illegal immigrants" into the country.
- A Republican television commercial by Senator Harri Anne Smith from Alabama’s
Second Congressional District, which condemns languages other than English and shows brown hands in handcuffs and shadowy
images crossing into the United States
- A personal blog from the website of Senator Elizabeth Dole (R-NC), which cites
the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) as a source of information on the impact of immigration in North Carolina;
FAIR has been designated by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group with ties to eugenics and white supremacy.
"Hate has hijacked the immigration debate," said Murguía whose organization—through
its website, www.WeCanStopTheHate.org—has been decrying the growing influence of hate groups and hate speech on
television and radio and in political campaigns. "What passes for debate on this issue is often little more than a demagogic
attack designed to inflame Americans rather than enlighten them. Our political leaders can stop it," she said. "They
should stop it."
"As the leaders of their respective parties, I challenge Senators Obama and McCain
not to look the other way while others stoop to demagoguery. I urge them in the strongest possible terms to confront inflammatory
anti-immigrant language and images when members of their party seek to use them as campaign tactics. I ask them to lead the
country in elevating the tone in this badly needed policy debate.”
Murguía said that NCLR welcomes a thoughtful
debate on immigration. "It is a complex problem," she said, "and one we can solve. But we can't have a civil debate as long
as hate has the microphone." Murguía said that she has contacted each of the campaigns in writing and plans to address the
topic more fully in her own address at the NCLR Annual Conference Tuesday Luncheon, after the two nominees have spoken.
