Default Discrimination

Well yet another ramble:

I am watching the news and Quanell X (black muslim community activist) is yet again getting into someone elses' business (about cops shooting some kid that didn't stop when he was being pulled over)
Next story is about a lady that felt she was discriminated against by the police (stopped and herrassed) and LULAC (League of United Latin American Citizens) is making a big stink in the media about it.
The crown of this whole mess was that there was a rumor about the BCIS (formerly known as INS) raiding work places and apartments which prompted a mega plex apartment complex to lose about 60% of inhabitants that disappeared and a school that was almost empty.... What was done with it or about it? Well the BCIS held a town hall meeting with LULAC to ensure that no deportations and raids have been done nor that they are scheduled.???! WTF AGAIN?! Here is a room full of people that broke the law with immigration officials and all they are telling them is that it is OK to break the law and that you won't get prosecuted for it....

What's your opinion about it? I think similar situations occur in Germany when it comes to asylum seekers and probably most european countries....

Would be nice to see the full article to that when you find it, thats like someone saying the FBI shut down all of hypedaves websites because he wouldnt stop creating new sites, and Quanell X stepped inside maybe because the FBI had been targeting black webmasters for nearly a decade and he said enough is enough. Hey we may never know the full info. Maybe the kid was dopped up, or maybe his breaks weren't working, we may never you, but surely you get the point im trying to make right?

Welcome to America, home of the free, illegal immigrants that can make it inside the US and rightfully take jobs and work for cheap and then 3 years later become legal immigrants, aint fair is it? The Secret Deal between Mexioc President and US President, "My People get in US undected you let them stay and work and in return Mexico will supply the US with all the marijuan you'll ever need as long as your boys in narcotics leave us alone" may think im crazy but thats the absolute truth, The US is run off of under the table type of deals. Take away the Mexicans and you have poor looking landscapes, poor service at fast food restaurants, oh geesh and now they are jumping the border and actually be allowed to run for political office seats, Mayor, Sherriff, City Council, and so on.


*Disclaimer: needer was this meant to show prejudice against illegal immgrants at all.

Quanell X? Never heard of him before - maybe he's prominent in Texas? A quick google turned up some interesting info...

He marches with the New Black Panthers in Houston, brandishing their AK47s (as someone already talked about), speaks at a Young Republican meeting to call Dems pimps and gets applauded,and is allegedly married to an asian while echoing the importance of balck culture .. Haha, this last link isn't very credible.

Maybe it's just his way of paying homage to Malcolm X but his name is cheesy.

There is a link to a picture of him here:

http://www.cnn.com/US/9806/13/texas.funeral/

Just do a search for "Quanell X", it's in a box with some clips.

It is cheesy, he has made lots of unreasonable demonstrations and when he marched showing assault weapons, he got into a corner of fundamental muslims...... Wait... do we have some more of those...

Since i am not american, i canīt say i know the guy and the party he represents. However, i do have a question to pose.
Is it legal to march on the streets baring assault rifles, in the US?
It is notorious how the US showcases a few gun laws that are appaling, to say the least, but marching with AK-47s??? Is that even legal?
I thought the gun laws had been revised and any type of weapon fitting the military category had been banned or something. Looks like it hasnīt.
Since those guys arenīt cops or private security, i donīt see how they can walk around with such weapons. Whatīs next, a Stinger missile? A Tank?
I can understand a handgun, or even a shotgun, wich is considered a hunting weapon. But assault rifles?
Something is very wrong here.
:rolleyes:

In Texas it probably is. Anything in Texas is legal if it concerns a pickup truck, gun, or BBQ. ;)
