We are a nation of Laws. You have a constitutional right to express you opinion. But you do not have the right to promote hate, incite riots and violence. The freedom of speech and expression has its limitation when you are promoting hate, dissension and violence.
ReplyDeleteWe are one nation and one people who came from all walks of life to this country, we must respect each other and be united in observing the laws of our country, I do not have to agree with you or like you, but I must respect you.
The Media in many cases distorts the facts and many times outright fabrication. May people treat the Media as if its the holly Bible. That's why the Media has a responsibility to report accurately; otherwise they promote hate and violence, divisiveness and animosity which is detrimental to our existence and the respect to each other. It seems like the theme of UNITY and what it stands for, is a foreign language to many people.
Visitors to our country are welcome, but they must abide by our laws, no exceptions. This applied to any and all immigrants who come to our country, they must abide by the laws of our country with no exceptions, and while waiting for citizenship, if they break the law they must be deported, that is also the law. Many of us, have our parents and or our grandparents who were immigrants to our country; they obeyed the laws, if qualified, they got the Green Card, filed the required yearly report truthfully and after 5 years were qualified for citizenship, they studied English and the required information to pass the test in English to be sworn as a law abiding American citizens.
You do not come to our country and impose your laws on the population of our country. You have the right to practice your faith as long as it does not violate our laws and regulations.

If you want to improve your lives and the lives of your fellow residents of Los Angeles, you must be willing to change the current administration which is a political machine for the present and previous elected officials; a political machine which will fight any attempts to change it; and will fight to make sure no outsiders gain entrance into this politically exclusive club.
ReplyDeleteAsk yourselves what major change or project that advances the prosperity and vitality of this city has been accomplished in the past 4 years? The answer is a resounding NONE.
For years the administration of the City of Los Angeles has failed the people of Los Angeles. It is time to elect an administration from the working people of Los Angeles, the non-politicians, the ones who owe their allegiance to the people of Los Angeles and to no one else. It is time to put into office a Mayor and administration willing to tell the people the way it is without any sugar coating or hidden agendas.
The City of LA has been going downhill for at least the past 15 years and more. The budget and revenues do not cover the costs of running the city. The past political-machine administrations promised to turn L.A. around and back onto a path of fiscal responsibility. Yet, they failed and continue to fail in keeping those promises. Their promises are as hollow, as the rust is thick on their political machines.
We must operate the city with responsible financial management and complete transparency. We must promote new businesses; fix the infrastructure, and our transportation system. Most importantly, we MUST improve our educational system and in so doing, give our children and grand-children the opportunity to succeed which they so richly deserve.
I ask you to give me the chance to be your Mayor and put into place an administration truly representing the best interests of ALL the citizens of Los Angeles, not just those who are part of and support a political machine. It is time, for your sake and the sake of our city, to elect one of us and push the ineffective, rusted political machine to the curb.
In this spirit of change I am promoting, I gladly reach my hand out to all of the candidates to form a cohesive force willing to work together to improve your lives, and to improve the city of Los Angeles with a relentless, UNIFIED effort to achieve this goal.
Thank You!
