"People are afraid to go to work," said Annette Martinez, a human rights lawyer documenting the situation with local activists...

"They say 'We are afraid because at any moment the immigration officers will come or their bosses will identify them as foreigners.'"

"In the Bahamas, they treat Haitians like dogs," Youtchike Dormeus, an 18-year-old deportee, said as she got off the plane in Port-au-Prince. The country, which denies treating anyone inhumanely, has deported 3,000 people this year.

"The fact is that illegal migration is a huge problem for us," Foreign Minister Fred Mitchell said in a recent interview. "We spend enormous resources for it. It is a drain on our social services, health care and education and we need to get the matter under control."

You are ignorant of the kings royal decree then

Which he explained by lecturing about how no voter has the right to speak if we didnt come in the original immigrant wave during the last ice age

Which I suppose that means he believes he can also ignore the Constitution, as the indigenous tribes dont necessarily recognize that document

Following his logic though, his rule must be illegitimate, since his ancestors didnt walk over on the ice bridge

Therefore by his own reasoning King Barry has no standing and really needs to step aside

Speaking of England

By King Baracks royal reasoning (which negates the voters, Congress, and rule of law itself) only the original English have the right to be in England

All the Muslims etc need to get out, and they should certainly have no voice in running the place

what he actually said (from his first link)
Returning to his hometown to speak, the president tried to place his recent executive action, which saved five million immigrants from deportation, within a great American tradition of welcoming foreigners.

"If you look at the history of immigration in this country, each successive wave there have been periods where the folks who were already here have said, 'Well I don't want those folks,'" he said. "Even though the only people who have the right to say that are some Native Americans."
His orders were sufficient in upsetting the GOP, but he also faced criticism from immigration activists who feel they do not go far enough.

Hecklers shouted "Not one more!" and "Stop deportations!" and "There is no justice!" during the speech, to which he replied at one point: "It doesn’t make much sense to yell at me right now."

Ploughing on, he argued: "Part of what America is about is stitching together folks from different backgrounds and different faiths and different ethnicities. That's what makes us special and, look, let's face it, sometimes that's hard to do, but it's worthwhile, it's worth doing.

oh and there is video too

I'm shocked that he would not support a long tradition of immigration, growth, and opportunity in favor of regulations, rules, deportations, and splitting up families.

This is big, inefficient government -- and he seems to be all for it. What do the Catholics, Chamber of Commerce, Cato Institute, Eric Cantor, Ronald Reagan, the Evangelicals, GWB, Jeb Bush, Koch Brothers, and libertarians know? Not much, according to him. Not much at all.
