		<description>There are very few blogs out there that are producing content this important. For that I thank you. I would love to see you do an in-depth piece on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cmbeb5visa.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;eb5 investor visa&lt;/a&gt;. there are hundreds of immigrants using this visa every year to enter the country LEGALLY and bring in millions of dollars and jobs to the economy. We have to flood the web and the world with the POSITIVE things immigrants do, or else all they will focus on and talk about are the negative things they do (that we all do!!!).</description>

		<description>[...] The October 12th celebration is commonly known in many countries in Latin America as Día de la Raza, a holiday that is comparatively recent. Before I go on, it is important to address the meaning of “la raza” because I can already hear the complaints how the name of the holiday is just more proof raza means “race.” The Spanish the word raza carries the meaning of an extended community bound by cultural ties in addition to those carrying similar physical traits. During that time, the word raza was used in a cultural sense to reference the contended affinity between Spanish-speaking peoples on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. However, one must also be aware that during the early 20th century it was not surprising to find intellectuals employ racist theories because this was also the height of the eugenics movement.

		<description>Hey xp - this a very thoughtful stab at untangling some of these issues &amp; their inter-connections. The historic background needs to be made clear. I can recall being stopped in my figurative tracks as a young man by some of the rhetoric coming from the earth first! folks in the 80&#039;s. I do think sustainable growth &amp; stewardship are concepts a leftist pro-humanity stance doesn&#039;t need to cede to reactionary &amp; neo-liberal forces. Heck, native american cultures are an excellent place to look for stewardsip models that doesnt begin w/, depend on private property. Might be interesting to bring China into the discussion - w/ its authoritarian approach to population growth &amp; its own envirnmental disasters as it mimics the west&#039;s industrial development &amp; continues many of its worst practices. 

O, &amp; that last quote you provide is truly vile. &quot;. . . people there are also using more fossil fuels every day as they seek better lives.&quot; I mean, to be generous, that&#039;s probably true if he means quantitatively today vs. the past - tho if that&#039;s the intended meaning it doesn&#039;t connect very well sense-wise w/ what precededs it. That &quot;Although&quot; makes it sound like underdeveloped countries&#039; growth is &quot;using more&quot; than the industrialized ones - which of course, is sheer nonsense - the average person in the US (w/ or w/out humvee) uses something like 100x the natural resources than a person living in the third world.</description>

		<description>Hey Carnal,

Juegala fria with the &quot;anti-life&quot; talk!!!  I know where you&#039;re coming from.  THEY are anti-life as far as anyone not in their image is concerned, but some of us in the pro-Choice side get a little chisqueados being called &quot;anti-life.&quot;

Believe me, sometimes I believe in birth control for most of my re-thug neighbors in gringo-landia!</description>

Hey Daniel

I probably would have just let it go, but I couldn’t, not when I did receive
an email from the President of Population Connection. It wasn’t their PR guy or some funky, it was the mero mero telling me “that the information I put forward” was inaccurate. Y sabes que, the guy used to work for the US Environmental Protection Agency and also served as Chief of Staff, Communications Director and District Director for U.S. Representative Peter H. Kostmayer.

I know why he wrote me, he was starting to get quoted by all the major media and my only little paragraph was cramping his style.

I am planning to put this post up on AEN, I am just trying to figure out how to break it up since it very long. I am not this guy go. Not when he writes something like this piece of trash:
&lt;blockquote&gt;

After all, it is people, not birds or bears, who drive Hummers and hybrids and who heat and cool homes and offices. Although the vast majority of population growth occurs in the least-developed nations, the people there are also using more fossil fuels every day as they seek better lives.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

The vato knows very well who are the fools driving the hummers and the hybrids and heating and cooling their homes. It just isn’t the “vast majority” of people in the “least-developed nations” that is for damn sure.

Here is H-town, we might as well be breathing through a gas mask because the air is thick with big oil’s crap they put in the air. He should come down here and live in his ideal “emissions trading” fantasy land.

		<description>Salu2 XP,

Well, normally I would say something like: &quot;don&#039;t let them kidya&quot; but I can see they are not.

I&#039;ve often wondered what ever happened to the zero pop folks, now I know. Thanks!

Sadly, I honestly think they would&#039;ve made some good headway in CA if more people understood the underlying racist intentions of the behind zero pop. Instead their dogma just fizzled out because people really thought it was about population control. People in CA associated zero pop with conservation, a hard sell during the Reagan years.

Now with nativism on the rise and the still widely acceptable &quot;get the Mexicans&quot; attitude that plagues this country I can honestly see the resurgence of zero pop taking root.

You know XP, I fly a lot to Mexico and when I return to L.A. I can see who I am descending into a sea of poison. I am deeply offended by the air pollution. The earth is a living thing and man&#039;s abuse of the earth has caused a cancer to form in the L.A. basin.

Indigenous people have lived here for about 12000 years and this cancer never appeared.

But the Euros came and raped the land of its nutrients and they&#039;ve taken those nutrients and have done terrible things with them.

Now the Euro wants to control our population. And they use their crimes against nature to justify controlling our population.

Sadly, I do not think the Euro is capable of stopping. They&#039;ve become like junkies. Blaming others for the effects of their addiction.

It&#039;s a very, very sad situation indeed.
