A Special Cinco de Mayo Message

..."to Arizona."

Well, gosh, if rich Hollywood stars feel this way...

UPDATE: The video has disappeared from the linked site.

You can still access it here and I've embedded it below--we'll see how much longer it can be accessed.



If anyone knows how to save these things...

And yeah, that's prohibited person Lindsay Lohan--still exhibiting a level of gun handling that reflects on her entire reputation for personal responsibility and self control:

A lot of movies do use real firearms with blanks instead of mere nonworking props...

Nice, action packed trailer. Too bad the reality is that they shoot ranchers and their dogs and run away.

Hey, Machete. Come on over to Arizona and bring your friends. We don't use special effects.

Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of the Mexican Army defeating the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. I have some bad news for Danny Trejo: Arizonians aren't French.

Well, this makes one wonder. The story back in the 70s was - police violence increased following each Dirty Harry flick.

So far, all of the Hispanic Americans I've asked have told me that cinco de mayo is Mexican independence day.

What can we expect after undereducated, impressionable folks see this movie?

I'm confused ... are people actually in favor of this law?

*grumble*labor markets need to clear*grumble*

I don't understand how some people so wedded to the idea of "freedom" oppose that others have it OR that it be cost prohibitive in "obtaining" that freedom.

Robert Rodriguez just lost my dollar for good.

I used to think highly of his work. Now I see he's just another left leaning dingbat in hollyweed.

Hey Machete, you're about to F**k with the wrong Gringo.

Negociamos en plomo, amigo.

So who do we sue when MS 13 type go wilding on the hated gringo?

Tombstone Charlie said...

Now we know...
Does this film qualify as "incitement to riot"?
Stand firm Arizona.

Chef - have you actually READ the law? It simply makes what is now a federal crime illegal in Arizona.

No one I know of here in Arizona is opposing legal immigration. How does one "obtain freedom" through trespass? If they want to "obtain freedom" why don't they start at home? FYI, Mexico's immigration laws are much stricter than Arizona's.

For instance, in Mexico, illegal immigration is a felony, punishable by up to two years in prison. Illegal aliens who reenter Mexico after being deported can be imprisoned for 10 years. Mexican visa violators can be sentenced to up to 6 years in prison. Assisting illegal aliens in Mexico is a felony. Foreigners residing in Mexico, who are determined by the Mexican Government to have a detrimental impact on economic interests or who are not "physically or mentally healthy" or lack the "necessary funds for their sustenance" are deported.

Why are Mexicans complaining about potentially being charged with a misdemeanor for not carrying their visa papers with them - which, incidentally is required in ALL foreign countries I've ever visited, and is required by federal law? I had no trouble carrying my stamped passport with me. And when my wife lived in France, the police could - and did - enter her residence unannounced at will to search the premises. She was a guest there, and that's the way it worked. She didn't have to be there, and didn't complain about their laws.

We are talking about foreigners here - not Citizens. Foreigners don't, and can't, have the same rights as citizens.

Ever been to an emergency room in Arizona or another border state? The place is loaded with illegal aliens, who have no intention of paying their bills. They go there if they have a cold.

If forcing citizens to pay the costs of illegal alien's education, health care and costs for incarcerating illegal alien felons is somehow stopping them from "obtaining freedom" you have a different definition of freedom than do I and many others. One can't trespass on my private property in the name of "freedom." "Free" and "freedom" are not the same. Besides, no service is actually free. Someone has to pay for it. Hospitals in border areas have shut down by going broke.

But to answer your question, yes - 75% of Arizonans, tired of paying the "free" way for illegals, are in favor of the law. Bullshit like comparing the law to Nazi Germany like some have done is just silly. I suggest that you actually read the law, and research the hell that has taken place in border areas.
