Kansas City Minuteman Attacked by LaRaza

La Raza, an exclusive, not inclusive, racially motivated group which actively denigrates “Anglos” and African-Americans, and which promotes bigotry towards anyone who is not Hispanic is threatening to move their scheduled national conference from Kansas City unless the mayor removes long-time community volunteer Frances Semler from the city's park board for her views on strengthening border security and enforcing the laws of our nation.

There is, indeed, something troubling here. That a racially motivated group based outside of Kansas City feels it has the right to tell a city how to run their business and threaten economic boycott if it doesn’t get its way is the issue. The mayor's response should be "Hasta la vista, La Raza.” The fact that La Raza is encouraging the NAACP to do the same, "to play the race card," is despicable.

This bullying move by "La Raza" literally, “The Race” is troubling; however, we must seize the opportunity for logic to shine down on their message. This will help the cause of law and order and will forever put a face on the problem—on one side stands a militant anti-American organization which advocates sedition and openly encourages a double standard of law enforcement based on ethnicity and "race"; on the other side stands an inclusive American movement consisting of millions of hard working, law abiding citizens who welcome loyal, legal immigrants and want the laws of our land enforced.

Mrs. Semler is presented as the “bad guy” in this attempted shake-down for her association with the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps volunteers, a citizens’ inclusive activist organization focused on the goal of securing our nation's borders, both north and south, and supporting the rule of law.

La Raza, a dangerous, militant racialist organization is constantly attempting to intimidate and strong-arm politicians around the country with threats of violent street demonstrations and economic sabotage if they don't get their way. Kansas City is simply the latest target. And of course, politicians all too often are bending over backwards to appease this La Raza, racist organization based on economics and race-based political calculation instead of holding fast on principle.

The mayor of Kansas City, the members of the city council and law enforcement officials should openly encourage La Raza to hit the road, and show support and respect for the local city leaders, our laws and communities and stand up for what attracts legal immigrants to this great country, the ordered liberty of a nation of laws.

We encourage you to contact the mayor, city council and the media—as well as their local NAACP and ACLU chapters—and tactfully tell them to support the rule of law, LEGAL immigration, and to NOT cave in to the extortion and threats of the racist La Raza.

To the rescue, Lurker! This was a scheduled event for the new Sprint Center up here - scheduled to open next month. I do believe the City was trying to show as much usage as possible in order to make the citizens "believe". I don't think the behind-the-scenes knowledge was known to everyone when "they" threatened to take their meetings elsewhere. It was only about the money. I, for one, believe the City needs to stand their ground, as I now know more about LaRaza than I ever wanted to. The thing is, if the City of Kansas City (MO) backs up and accepts LaRaza's threats and fires Ms. Semler, then they have a black eye. I dunno if Ms. Semler is the best person to have on the Parks board - I can't see it's a big enough issue for LaRaza to make a big scene about. One thing for sure. LaRaza has more money than we think they do if they can cancel convention contracts and move it without a second thought.

My own thought (since I'm not a tax paying citizen of KCMO) is that the Mayor needs to stand his ground. I can't see that Ms. Semler's outside affiliations threaten her position on the parks board. That's just simple. Does it threaten illegal immigrants? I dunno that, either. But if it does? Fabulous! They are not in a position to make our laws. Period.

The jungles....funny....Most Mexican immigrants (legal and illegal) that are here are from northern states in Mexico. These states are actually have more of a climate and terrain like Texas and New Mexico and do not have jungles. And how do i know this....For one a paid attention in geography class and two my parents are originally from that part of Mexico and I have visited there many, many times.


Jungles.....Makes me wonder about people sometimes......

It's just ignorance and racist stereotypes....

I thought the census said the majority of our newcomers were not from mainland Mexico, but places like Guatemala and farther south?

[Army_of_One]

Either way to generalize people to be from the jungles is a racial stereotype...perhaps you could dig up the census?

Do illegals fill out the census?

Doesn't the census count citizens? I would think nobody would answer the door when a census-taker came around......

I think it just counts warm bodies regardless of origin.
