America's population center is edging away from the Midwest, pulled by Hispanic growth in the Southwest, according to census figures. The historic shift is changing the nation's politics and even the traditional notion of the country's heartland - which has long been the symbol of mainstream American beliefs and culture.The West is now home to the four fastest-growing states - Nevada, Arizona, Utah and Idaho - and has surpassed the Midwest in population, according to 2010 figures. California and Texas added to the southwestern population tilt, making up more than one-fourth of the nation's total gains since 2000.

......the Black community being the weakest link, especially as in concerns a proven inept elected Black leadership has made it even easier for illegal immigrants from around the world to displace law abiding U.S. born Black men, women, and/or his or her siblings.
.....President Obama and/or the Congressional Black Caucus's days will be numbered too, because a more and more illegal immigrants because citizens, due to our own treasonous elected Black leadership, slim chance exists that this misfit elected Black leadership will remain, and/or be re-elected. Hispanics who have displaced U.S. born Blacks tend to promote individuals like themselves into elected office, etc., etc.
.....The Tea Baggers, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, Conservatives are far from being racists....
......In light of reality and truth, more likely it is President Barack Obama, the Obama Administration, Liberals, Union leaders, race baiting ambulance chasing pseudo civil rights advocates who are treasonous, racists, un-American, anti Free Enterprise, reckless, United States of America bashers, incompetent to the power of infinity, you name it.....
President Obama, The Obama Administration, Liberals, and/or the Democratic Party, place more emphasis in promoting the cause of illegal/undocumented immigration, and unions than serving U.S. citizens, legal immigrants, and/or the U.S. born Black community!

Contrary to the Rule of Law, Illegal Immigrants Drive, and are Employed on Jobs Requiring Legal Status!
“Those rules have drawn the ire of immigration advocacy groups that said they disproportionately targeted undocumented immigrants, who are not able to obtain licenses legally in nearly all U.S. states. Once a vehicle is impounded, law enforcement agencies often require it to remain locked up for at least a month and charge the owner hefty fees to release it.”
......of course unlicensed and uninsured illegal/undocumented immigrants more than any other driver will be targeted because 100% of illegal/undocumented immigrants are already in violation of State Vehicle Code anytime he or she drive on any public road, street, highway, freeway, bridge, etc., etc.
......any U.S. citizen or legal immigrant who drives without a license, proof of insurance, would have his or her car impounded too in the event a licensed driver could not be found to move the vehicle to prevent the vehicle from being sent to the City impound.
“......expressed limited praise for the LAPD's change but questioned why the department needed to impound a car if the driver had not been drinking.”
Illegal/undocumented immigrants do not possess driving privileges on any public street in the U.S.
Accurate Identification: “It is critical that these documents be completely authenticated and accurate. The California Legislature has declared that the DL or ID card is the primary identification document in this state. California law requires that all applicants who apply for an original California DL/ID card submit proof of legal presence in the U.S. as authorized under federal law. Your true full name as shown on your legal presence document will appear on your DL/ID card.”
Illegal/Undocumented immigrants are not supposed to be in the U.S., let alone be on any public street while driving any vehicle. California Vehicle Code requires a valid driver’s license and proof of financial responsibility or proof of insurance. With the exception of few states that cater to illegal/undocumented immigrants, illegal/undocumented immigrants are not supposed to drive on any public street (Arizona, , Texas, Maryland, Ohio, Oregon, etc., etc.)
In sanctuary jurisdictions such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, Maywood, Bell, Inglewood, Compton, etc., etc., Los Angeles County, etc., and a minute few States (Washington, New Mexico, Utah)
......with the blessing of the Department of Homeland Security, the Obama Administration, and/or President President Obama who promote the Dream Act, and stall implementation of the Real ID Act.
......it would not be uncommon for illegal/undocument immigrants from Mexico, El Salvador, Somalia, the West Indies, Haiti, Cuba, China, Kenya, Nigeria, etc., etc., who possess a fraudulent ID, other fraudulent documents to obtain DMV Registration, a Driver’s License, to be employed, etc., etc. , and it is a serious criminal and felonious offense in the event any U.S. citizen(s) or legal immigrant(s) conspires to sell or attempt to legalize this fraudulent activity in behalf of illegal/undocumented immigrants.....
.......illegal/undocument immigrants gainfully employed or employed on jobs that require citizenship and/or proof of legitimate status, all while untold numbers of law abiding U.S. citizens and/or legal immigrants remain unemployed and/or under employed.
.......and it is a huge misnomer to suggest that U.S. citizens/legal immigrants won’t work for long hours on jobs that pay low wages during hard economic times.

......Really, that not what reality speaks. The Black community is what is facing extinction, namely due to the incompetence of its own leadership and/or the misguided Black electorate who continuously re-elect misfits.

"Census: More Blacks in South Moving to Suburbs, GOP Regions to Become Democratic"
....illegal immigrants from around the world are not moving into any U.S. born decendent of Slave Black community for the benefit of any law abiding U.S. born Black community.
....so much so, that the U.S. born Black community is kicking itself to the curb and beyond to the point of self extinction!
...and the U.S. born Black community, inept spineless treasonous elected Black leadership, a "sellout and sleazy Black middleclass", and/or more times than not inept Black voting electorate, being the weakest link, have allowed illegal immigrants from Somalia, Nigeria, Mexico, Haiti, the West Indies, North Africa, Kenya, the Hondoras, El Salvador to take control of South Central Los Angeles, Detroit, Compton, Inglewood, New Orleans, Atlanta, etc., etc., and/or many other neighborhoods formerly or presently predominated by U.S. born Black people.

Thank You, Fontana City Councilwoman Acquanetta Warren, for Having Backbone to Do Right by the People!
You are definitely a rare breed. Unlike the position you take, and the courage you’ve shown to do the right thing, far too often a misguided elected Black leadership are anti AB 1070, incompetent, spineless, and un-American.
In contrast, President Barack Obama, the Congressional Black Caucus, Assemblywoman Karen Bass, 2nd District Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas, and/or other no good elected Black leaders, support amnesty for and bend over backwards to serve illegal/undocumented immigrants, at the expense law abiding U.S. citizens and legal immigrants. These misguided elected officials oppose the best interests of the Black community, the Lofton Family, the Shaw family, other Black families, disregard the rule of law, the U.S. Constitution, their State Constitutions, for his, her or their own self serving interests….and not the public’s best interest.
**************************************************
Fontana City Council Public Meeting, May 26, 2010.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2xQmpd8YMA&feature=player_embedded
“Good evening Mayor and city council members. My name is Gil Navarro and I’m an elected official just like yourself. ….I’m a member of San Bernardino County Board of Education, AREA “ D”, but I’m here representing myself.
“My concern is with your City Councilwoman Aquanetta Warren, about the paper that she wrote that was published by the ‘Black Voice News’ regarding her applauding the Arizona crackdown . Acquanetta Warren Republican or Racism….that is the way I interpret it. And Acquanetta, I don’t understand what you have with your own Black race, because you’ll never be a white republican, they will never accept you…… …So you should not try to use that, the fact that Arizona has a law against immigrants. In my opinion, Dr. Martha Luther King,
.....Mrs. Warren, would roll over in his grave if he knew that you did this. And here you are blaming, or linking illegal immigration with Black unemployment and violence. You’re telling me an immigrant that came to this country is causing a Black man to rape a white woman. A Black man that robs a liquor store you’re blaming the immigrants for that. The fact that the highest rate of suspension, expulsion, dropout rate in this county are African Americans students….You’re blaming immigrants for that.....
I don’t know where you are coming from but obviously what you’re trying to create is Black against Latinos. That is racism. In fact, this is the kind of stuff they talked about the Blacks in the South. It was terrible about what happened to the Black race. You know a lot of people say to us Latinos, go back to where we came from…but we haven’t left. You know, l look at history. Southern California used to be a part of Mexico. We are back. …and you know I’ll tell you about Arizona, I know you can’t do anything about it here in Fontana, but if Pancho Villa was here and alive today he would capture Arizona and put them out of their misery. I don’t know if you’re a Christian woman, but I don’t think that the Bible that promotes Jesus Christ said love thy white neighbor only.” by Gil Navarro has proven himself to be a bigot by such comments.

......the truth as spoken by Fontana City Councilwoman Acquanetta Warren, and/or the majority of law abiding citizens and legal immigrants also know, believe, and support.
“This issue is a security issue. We need to protect our borders. We must safeguard against terrorists, criminals and drug pushers. And yes, about jobs. You bet it is about jobs and taxes. The state is out of money and taxpayers are tired. They should not be on the hook to pay for those who are here illegally. And you get here illegally; you need to learn how to speak English. You need to understand the culture in America. I don’t begrudge anyone for trying to have a better life, but if I do something illegally they call me on it and I’ve dealt with it.
The race card, is like beating a dog that you shouldn’t be touching, because it’s not about race, it’s about ourselves, it’s about our children, it’s about the public, the public that we are led to serve. We need to be clear that…. that article is a comment that I made about a study out of Louisiana State University, where I myself have experienced where I grew up in South Central LA, the low skill jobs, and other jobs, in that area, that have been taken by illegal immigrants.
We need the Federal level to step up, and start securing our borders, and start an honest dialogue, and begin to make the right decisions that affect all of us.....
Until that happens you‘re going to have all this finger pointing. But I feel the way that I feel and I’m not going to change and if anything I’m going to work toward making sure that we secure our borders, that we are safe.
....and that gentleman that came up and talked about Arizona.....
Unless you live down under the terror that those people are living under, stop It. Figure it out.” by Acquanetta Warren, Fontana City Councilwoman
