I started thinking about setting up a blog a while ago to simply post my views about different issues I believe are very important. I never really had one specific issue that was my driving force - but I do now.

The illegal immigration problem in America is biggest danger facing our generation. Every day, tens of thousands of undocumented, illegal aliens cross our borders and begin a new life in America. I understand why most of them do it. Most have no future in Mexico (or wherever they come from) and just want a better life for their family. Basically, they are looking for the "American Dream" even though they are not Americans. On the other hand, there are others who do not have the same intentions. They are the drug runners, the pimps, the criminals, and most disturbingly, the terrorists. It is a documented fact terrorists have crossed our Southern border and entered our country illegally. At least two of the September 11 terrorists did so.

The border needs to be temporarily closed until our Congress can implement a comprehensive security and immigration program. This program must provide a way for the well-intentioned people of the world to visit America legally and include a map for legal immigration for those who want to become a part of our great nation. If the military needs to guard the border until a workable plan is in order then that is exactly where they should be. The United States military's primary function is to defend our home land. They should be patrolling the border day and night as long as the invasion of illegal aliens continues.

There are many issues that trouble our once-great country. Above all, the illegal immigration problem tops that list. Once we put a stop to the invasion, deport the offenders, and implement a new, workable policy, only then should we concentrate on the other great problems of America.

I will be attending the Wake Up America conference: Unite to Fight Against Illegal Immigration conference May 27 - 29 in Las Vegas. This conference includes a list of speakers who would probably be considered the "who's who" of the anti illegal immigration movement. Click the above link to see a list of speakers and other information about the conference. I strongly encourage everyone who supports the cause of liberty to attend this conference. For those who cannot attend I will be posting daily updates to this blog including my daily notes from the conference. I will include a picture gallery as well. This conference has the potential to light a fire in the movement against illegal immigration. I hope you will check back often and post your ideas, opinions, and solutions. Thank you for taking the time to read my blog.
