So, you came across the desert, found an opening and came into America. You knew it was against the law. You got your foot in the door of America and now you have a taste of our country.
Since you have been here you may have got a job and have settled into a home that you feel secure in. However, in the back of your mind there is fear of being sent back. You have always lived in fear, but that’s OK because here is better than there.
You knew it was coming. No matter how far you go into America, you will always live in fear, but that is not what America is all about. It’s the job of our government to maintain domestic tranquility. We are still working on these words but they work, so we try and so must you.
If you are sent back to Mexico after knowing America, know this: America has a habit of dealing with their adversaries or ignoring them, but they do welcome friends. The law of the land is what makes it all work. The law of the land is the Constitution of the United States.
Please translate the preamble or the beginning of the Constitution.
Mexico has its own way and it’s not working. That’s why you are here. If you must go back, take America with you. Drugs, violence, craziness are all coming from Mexico.
Find a way to stop the drugs and violence. Change your land and make it all work. Fight for freedom and education of your young and change your country as we did against the British back in the 1700’s. We should have entered you as a state a long time ago.
The words of the preamble and our Constitution must apply to everyone or it means nothing. It says that the only thing more contagious than a virus is an idea.
Finally, all Americans speak English as the preamble and Constitution are written. This will never change. The only way people can become closer is to speak the same language.
Translate this well and try to understand.

Confusing for emergency responders
In my little town of Beatty, we have a situation in which emergency responders can’t find a physical address because houses may have the same number on opposite sides of “First Street.”
Nowhere on the planet will you find a house on one side of First Street with the number 103 Valley St., and opposite that, on the other side of First Street, is a house with the number 103 on Valley St.
The situation gets worse when numbers are duplicated over and over on both sides of First Street. I have many times watched an ambulance drive up and down Valley Street, trying to determine where an emergency was.
Going down one block, there are trailers located on Cedar Street and others facing the alley behind Cedar Street on the same lots. They all have numbers, but only the numbers visible on Cedar Street can be seen without driving down the alley behind the property. Valuable time is therefore wasted while emergency responders drive up and down, trying to find a location.
I have identified this problem and gotten less than helpful responses from the sheriff of Nye County and from a member of the local town advisory board. In typical Nevada fashion, if it doesn’t have an immediate impact on them or their buddies or family, it just isn’t an issue.

This is not fair
Dr. Derek Foreman, his wonderful spouse and his staff have been unfairly accused of this nonsense.
I could not walk two months ago. These professionals have rehabilitated my gait and they always have a positive outlook on life and have faith in the rehab process.
They make you laugh when you are a patient. They do not care about money. They work with you if you are having financial problems.
These are the most gifted, remarkable and trustworthy professionals in this town. And, in my opinion, in this entire state.
I could not ask for more.

“Mexico has its own way and it’s not working. That’s why you are here. If you must go back, take America with you. Drugs, violence, craziness are all coming from Mexico.”
Naaa, drugs, violence and craziness are all homemade problems with the thriving community of Pahrump. Take some responsibility for your failures…
Trust me – Pahrump is a long cry from typical America – more like the “Twilight Zone”
I always have to laugh when I read these people who have the simplistic attitude that we will solve all of America’s problems by simply loading all “illegals” into cattle cars and deporting them. But just for a moment look at what would happen to America and each of us if we really expelled millions of people. Who would harvest the fruits, vegetables, and nuts, we all go to the store to buy? Who would man the meat factories that send us our chicken and other meat products. Who would wash the dishes in our restaurants; clean the rooms in our hotels; staff the nursing homes where we place our parents; staff the nurseries where we place our children; weed our gardens. These people are such an integral part of our lives that the economic impact would devistate the US economy if we REALLY did what you are all calling for when you say to kick the illigals out of the country. Think about it.
Illegal immigration is a Nation killer. If you do not believe that it is time to go and study history. In recent times you might study why Yugoslavia broke up into 7 Nations. I’ll give you a hint why.

I have no problem with people wanting to enter this country. Who wouldn’t want to join the greatest country in the world? Do it the right way. Hell I’d give an illeagal amnesty myself (if I were given the power, anyway) if they are at LEAST in the process of becoming a citizen.
Now I know the first comment that will come against my statements: Do you know how hard it is to become an American citizen? Yep, I do. It should be difficult, expensive and time consuming. Why you say? Next time you are “surfing the net” look up what conditions and restrictions you have to go through and abide by to get citizenship in another “Free” country. If you become a US citizen, you can’t become our Nation’s President, that’s about the extent of your restrictions.
Come to the US: thrive,live, persue the American dream, but do so as a citizen, we’d love to have ya.
