Burning a flag in solidarity with the Honduran people on July 4th makes more sense to me than burning a flag as a "celebration of the First Amendment." Divorcing flagburning from its visceral ("Yanqui, go home!") content is a way of stripping the action of its force. Using constitutional arguments and hailing the First Amendment seems to me to be an attempt to dampen reactionary kneejerk jingoism ("see, it's not so threatening"). But the point of a flag-burning in countries occupied by the U.S. or profiteering international corporations closely tied to U.S. guns and money IS to threaten ("get the **** out!").
Burn a flag on the 4th in front of the Honduran counselate in protest of continued U.S. support
for the Honduran coup-sters. That's a real way of using the First Amendment in more than an empty
symbolic way. Divorcing U.S. flagburning from what it traditionally means throughout Latin America
is a way of concealing or ignoring important history. Millions are being ripped off by the maquiladoras (exported NAFTA industries using cheap labor), especially in Honduras.

do yourself a favor and get one of those 5 gallon propane tanks from Home depot and an enema syringe, fill your entire GI tract with propane, light your posterior nozzle and fly your A_s_s down to Honduras...

[Naturalized Legal Citizen]

Hi all,

I'm not one of the 88, but I naturalized in 2007. It was a very proud day for me. I did it the correct way, paid my dues (and my fees to INS, now ICE), studied the facts, waited in line (have any of you been in line at INS/ICE in San Jose? You need to get there at 5 am just to get in that day), waited until my name came to the top of the list, took the test, arrived on time and well-dressed for my interview, answered correctly, and was admitted.

And for those that have been wondering, I'm peeved-off (though those aren't the true words; mine are stronger but not censor-proof) that others lie, cheat, dodge, and dive under the fence to get what I did the correct way.

No amnesty!

I believe you are incorrect. You cannot petition for your fiance, as that person is not a legal relative under the law.

U.S. citizens can petition for their parents, spouses, minor children (unmarried and under 21), unmarried/married sons and daughters and siblings for green cards. They can also petition for fiancés under K-1 and spouses under K-3. The green card requires the filing of an I-130. The K visa requires the filing of an I-129F.
Green card holders can only petition for spouses, minor children (unmarried and under 21) and unmarried sons and daughters. They can also sponsor a spouse and minor children (unmarried and under 21) under the V visa category. The green card requires the filing of an I-1

So proud, and right here in Feltonia.
...and with a Steam Train, Bunting and all,
SO AMERICAN!
So nice to see hard work, honesty and following the rules as a PRErequisite rewarded.
Congratulations OUR "New" Citizens.
They seem to have already worked hard and dedicated themselves to what was a once just their own impossible dream in their countries of origin.
They have now EARNED the Freedoms, Challenges, Responsibilities and Unending Opportunity available and so often taken for granted by me and many fellow "Old" Citizens.
- The incalculable gift of being an American Citizen.
I Love America
