As thousands of illegal immigrants have crossed the U.S. Southern Border and flooded into Texas and many are now being flown into California, one member of a Latino pro-immigration organization claims that "This issue with the children could be the Rosa Parks moment in the immigration debate.”
ABC10 reported that the first of several planes
carrying illegal aliens from Central America, which was scheduled to
land Tuesday at 10:00 a.m., will be transporting the passengers to
Murrieta for screening and relocation. Enrique Morones, one of the
leaders of Border Angels, a group
sympathetic to illegal immigration, plans on spearheading efforts to
bring blankets, food, and immigration services to California’s new
inhabitants. "If they get sent back, they'll be killed, they'll die," he
insists.
Just as Rosa Parks refusing to be moved to the back of the bus
defined the beginning of the civil rights movement in America, Morones
contends so will the children crossing the border be the defining moment
for illegal immigration acceptance. He says, “All of a sudden the
switch is going to go on, and we're going to go, 'Oh my god, what are we
doing?'"
Morones implies that the reason illegal immigrants from Mexico and
Central America are not wanted in certain communities is racism. "If
these kids were Canadian kids, we wouldn't be having this discussion,"
he asserted.
According to ABC10, protester Diana Serafin is leading a charge of
hundreds in Murrieta against the illegal aliens' coming to their
suburban community. She and others oppose the relocation plan and see
themselves as preventing crime and the spread of diseases like
tuberculosis. "The Border Patrol sent me the sheet of everything they
have to do to protect themselves from the diseases," the appalled
Serafin explained. "Right here locally at Murrieta we were sent this."
