Racine Mayor Gary Becker pay attention please.

This is from Racine Mayor Gary Becker today speaking at the "Day without Latinas" event.

“Just because immigrants don’t look as white as I do, doesn’t mean we should use them as a bogeyman,” Becker said. He said that Racine immigrants are valued and respected and invited them to come to Racine.

Clue in on something Gary, this is NOT about race, this is NOT about skin color.

This is about coming into our country into our country ILLEGALLY. I drove by the Voces de la Frontera office the other day and now they have signs up demanding health insurance for illegals. Where are you going to fit that into your city budget Gary?

I'm tapped out from covering the 5.9% year over year increased assessment on my home and associated property tax increase in a down market Mr. Mayor.

You just invited all the illegals to Racine Mr. Mayor how are you going to pay for the health insurance? I'm tapped out. I can not afford any more. I suppose that make me a racist now because I can not afford to pay for illegals.

Notice I said illegals Mr. Mayor, not persons of any skin color. I don't care if their skin tone matches yours perfectly Gary if they come into our country illegally we should not reward that behavior.

How you managed to run unopposed is beyond me Mr. Becker. Your community has the highest unemployment in the state and now you are inviting illegal aliens into Racine and people are satisfied with your leadership?

Clue in Gary and stop claiming racism where none exists. If you would like to see someone really agitated go speak with some Latinas who came to our country legally and ask them how they feel about persons who break the law to come here. Those people are ticked.

Are those Latinas who came to our country under legal immigration racists if they are angry at people who came her illegally Mr. Mayor? What's wrong with asking people to do things the right way? Asking people to follow the law is not a racist act.

As for this Racine resident Mr Becker. I'll do everything in my power to see that you are out of your post as Mayor as soon as possible.
