PLEASE HELP US PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. IF THEY WON'T LISTEN TO OUR LETTERS AND FAXES, MAYBE THEY WILL LISTEN IF OUR TRUCKERS SHUT THIS COUNTRY DOWN AND SURROUND THE WHITE HOUSE.
WE CAN AND MUST MAKE THIS HAPPEN !!!
Below I have put together some bullet points that I feel are important issues about Bush's plan to let the Mexican truckers into the U.S. and how that will adversely affect this entire nation. The truckers will loose their futures, and it will seal the fate of our country to the loss of our sovereignty, Constitution and ultimately our governing bodies, liberties and freedoms. We could even wind up loosing our lives if the terrorists, La Raza and the revolutionary brown berets have their way.
"Truck Out" Bullet points:
The main talking points for the CB Broadcasts are:
1. Bush is planning, in less than 60 days, to allow tens of thousands ( 17,000 or more to start ) of Mexican trucks and truckers into our country with no checks and balances in place. Rigs will be allowed in with no weight regulations, no load restrictions (as their loads will not be under the same security scrutiny that our truckers loads have to comply to, which opens the door to more drug, terrorist, weapons and human smuggling), some with no insurance in place, some truckers with no drivers licenses and criminal driving records, no background checks, and trucks that are not regulated to adhere to our strict safety regulations.
2. Once again the illegals will be given special treatment by our govt., above that of our legal American citizens and legal immigrants, that allows them to break laws in our country that our truckers cannot get away with or their licenses would be pulled, their trucks impounded, and potentially criminally charged.
3. These truckers can haul for far less per load than our own truckers and will take their jobs. This is not a threat, or something that may happen, it has been in the planning stages for several years now and this is the implementation of those plans. The truckers WILL loose their jobs.
4. This plan by Bush is completely one sided as the Mexican truckers will be allowed into America, but once again we have no rights to do the same in Mexico.
5. This is a complete breakdown of the current trucking laws and regulations that govern our teamster truckers and Independent trucking organizations. This will work to destroy the truckers livelihoods and futures, as for many, this is all they have ever done.
6. We cannot allow this to happen, not even to test it. NAFTA is a failed international policy that has backfired on the U.S., as warned, and is driving our country into total ruin.
7. We want our truckers to participate in a national "Truck Out" Boycott, on the 23-25 of April, to coincide with the FairUS rally planned in Washington DC, the Put Their Feet To The Fire Press Conference Rally. This would be a great way to get additional national press coverage needed to get the trucker's protest message out to the nation.
8. The "Truck Out" can be for one day, or all three if the truckers are willing. The point is to shut all trucking down and surround every capital in every state with a convoy of trucks, cars and motorcycles to protest the corrupt plans our govt has to destroy our trucking industry, and our nation. This will, in turn, shut all industry dependent on the truckers down, as most of these industries employee illegals. This will show our govt that we do have power and will exercise it, and will not tolerate their refusal to do the will of the legal American citizens and immigrants in this country. We are demanding NO amnesty for illegal aliens, an end to the socialist/fascist corruption in our govt by our elected officials who refuse to uphold our laws, our Constitution, their oaths of office, and the people who voted them into office. We are their bosses and it's time for them to stop ignoring us, blatantly breaking our laws, and twisting the truth to suit their own nefarious agendas.
9. Please join the "Truck Out" and pm me for more information. A phone number is being set up and will be posted on the new web site SaveAmericaFund.com. The web site will be operational starting next week, with an email address and a phone number for any questions or support.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR DOING EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN. WE ARE ALL COUNTING ON EACH OTHER TO SAVE AMERICA. LET'S MAKE THIS HAPPEN AND DO IT NOW !!!!!!!!!!!

you go your way...........i'll go my way...........straight to the bank with my weekly paycheck.........

good luck in your "endeavor" to organize some sort of trucker's strike..

i'll be laughing at you and the others from the ATM machine making a withdrawal as i'll have money for that week...........will you....???

Yeah, but how long will you be laughing from the ATM machine? After they take your job you will probably be laughing at the petty amount on your receipt

I know that the poster will not check back to read responses to his handywork, but this is ridiculous.

Where do people get these figures? This one is a complete lie.

No thanks. I'm not a paranoid American.

And who are these people?

Again...no thanks. I can barely stand the normal chatter, much less that of more misinformed drivers.

Yes...I've heard that he will be conducting a ribbon cutting ceremony, with free burritos and tacos for all. I gotta go down there and get me some of those.

A better bet will be if you so much as drive one truck within a half mile of the White House, that you may well be surrounded by a bunch of boys in blue and camo who will have something to say about that.

I can't wait for this set of points.

Unbelievable...literally.

Absolute hogwash from start to finish. Any truck that crosses that border will be subjected to more scrutiny than the average American truck. They will additionally have to meet every last one requirement, in terms of insurance, load securement, licensing requirements, and the drivers will have been screened as well.

The above represents a set of complete lies that are being retold over and over again, by union interests in this country who are opposed to ANYTHING that threatens their membership base. There is no basis behind the accusations, and it is nothing short of fearmongering.

More utter crap. Any Mexican driver that violates a law while operating within the United States will be subjected to the same punishment as their American counterpart. In fact they will be subjected to stricter guidelines, and will likely suffer more scrutiny in the form of roadside inspections, until their records are established and people relax.

Very few drivers will actually lose their jobs, both now or in the future. The loads they will be hauling will have one way destinations into and out of this country. They will be serving, for the most part, Mexican entities and their suppliers. What will be trimmed, are the border transfer operations that presently employ union labor, the source of these points and hypotheticals.

That's totally incorrect. American trucking companies will have absolute right to cross into Mexico under NAFTA. It may well be one sided for other reasons, such as drivers being reluctant to want to truck down there.

It is nothing of the sort. The actual result will be a stimulation of the Mexican economy, with little actual affect on the United States, other than those that will have positive effects, such as the fact that those trucks will be purchasing fuel with drivers availing themselves to services and business establishments while they are in the United States.

Life in the meantime will go on as usual for the average American driver.

Hardly. It may represent a decline in union workers who have enjoyed the status quo at points where freight transfer exists today, but the country as a whole will benefit tremendously from trade with South America.

Do you really think that our Government would purposely put all of us out of a job?

Now read this, and think about it.

Just about EVERY doggone instance where jobs have been lost in this country, moved off shore, or eliminated, will in some way coincide with a union presence.

What goes up, must come down. It is completely unrealistic to expect that wages can rise continuously for union labor, when people that buy the products or services produced by union labor, do not enjoy the same rises in wages.

We witness this rant about the way that an influx of Mexican drivers, who do make far less than we do at the moment, will "bring us all down". Unions have enjoyed quite a ride in this nation, while those of us struggle to pay for their lifestyle through the paying of inflated prices for the goods and services they have produced.

They will fight to their dying breath to preserve unionism, rather than to see the writing on the wall and actually attempt to compete on a level playing field.

Here we are now, debating the impending influx of yet another pressure put upon them, by allowing another country to utilize our roads to create a positive effect upon their economy. They represent no actual threat to anyone at all, but those that have benefited from the transfer of freight from one country to the other, and the unions stands to lose the largest share in the elimination of the need to make such transfers.

Any truth to the fact that the opening of the borders will only benefit Mexico, can be firmly justified. The only fair way to do business is to insure that all compete on fair ground. Be it two convenience stores that sit side-by-side who have to compete for customers, or two ports located five hundred miles apart, it forces competition to keep monopolies in check, and equalizes all concerns. Let the best man win.

Rather than to use truth, the resort to innuendo, half-truths, and outright lies to attempt to preserve their monopolies, and a trottle on the neck of international trade.

I find it actually humorous that they have sunk so low, to actually attempt to recruit those of us that they for years have despised, because we either have had not opportunity to join them as members, or reject them for the way they siphon off the ability for businesses to compete in a market economy.

Unions built this country, and they have largely brought about it's ills today.

I have full respect for people that choose to work within a union, but I have a hard time feeling sorry for those that will not do what is needed, because the union representation refuses to act in the best interests of their members, even when it makes sense to do so and the writing on the wall is ten feet tall.

Could we move the date of this by one day? I have a dentist appointment on the 24th. That way I can say I precipitated, and get my teeth cleaned at the same time.

I do somewhat dread the influx of a bunch of Mexicans trucking around America. It just doesn't seem right.

The Canucks have been here for a while with little harm done, but, their standards (wages, safety, etc.) are as high as ours. The playing field is more level between our Northern neighbors and us than that of our Chicano competitors.

It will be interesting to see how all of this shakes out. Things will be different, for sure.

Where does this really have anything to do with a Union? This is being pushed by an activist group (ALIPAC), not a Union.

All they are doing here is trying to recruit truckers to help do their "dirty work" which is illegally shutting interstates down, while they protest "legally" on the sidewalks.

This is a political agenda, not a Union agenda, from what I can tell.

Moving this to the politics forum

Maybe you could move your dentist appoint to the 23rd. That might be easier than contacting the 3 or 4 truckers that are going to participate in this.

no worries man...they're gonna strike for three days...reckon that figures out to be one truck per day
