Framers Branch…Remember that name

Framers Branch is a little town in Texas (population around 28,000) that has decided to up the ante in the illegal alien issue in this country.

The six member common council voted unanimously to enact the following sweeping ordinances:

  • English is the cities official language
  • Fines for business owners that employ illegal aliens
  • Fines for landlords the rent to illegal aliens
  • Immigration screening of suspects in the custody of law enforcement

The AP is reporting the story under the following headline:

Texas city OKs anti-immigration measures

Pardon me?!? I do not see anything in what they passed that could possibly be construed as ANTI-immigration!

This town, which will now become the subject of many lawsuits (from illegal aliens mind you!), is doing the right thing! If people wish to come to this country then do it legally. Our country’s back bone was made by hard working immigrants but illegal acts are by definition ILLEGAL and wrong.

Theodore Roosevelt said:

"In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man's becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Remember the name Farmers Branch…It will be important one day.
