Hear, hear!

Ricky Martin appeared at the Billboard Latin Music Awards yesterday and took the opportunity to voice his opinion about the recent anti-immigration law that passed in Arizona.

"This is not in the script," he said. "You are not alone. We are with you. Put a stop to discrimination. Put a stop to hate. Put a stop to racism… Long live love, long live peace."

He received a standing ovation and we couldn't agree more!

      Re: Gary78 – It is really easy for you people to say become LEGAL,do it the right way. It's easier said than done.
      People do this out of necessity. Some risk their lives and die in the process trying to come here. Do you really think that people want the extra stress and discrimination. NO!!! They do it illegal because they have no other choice. Because the process can take YEARS!!!Do you really think that if they had the time and money they would risk their lives to come here???
      They come to work and support their families. Like any other person would do for their families. We are lucky to be in such a great country like the USA. It's easy to say all this when you haven't lived in poverty.

      i think the bigger issue here is not about supporting illegal inmigrants…is about the fact that they can question you just because of your physical appearance..thats what ricky and other celebrities are against

      Re: BigHole – Bullshit, Ya big hole.
      I am obviously in a different tax bracket than you,
      you can believe I did NOT get my taxes "back".
      It went to welfare for those who probably don't deserve it…
      AND I WANT IT BACK! I am HOPING some of it goes to shore up
      the border in AZ and Canada and help our Immigration
      & Nationalization services to get a grip on this shit.
      People who suck off the government are sucking off me and I AM SICK OF IT!
      Get real, get educated, get a job. Where the hell do you
      think the money comes from to pay your illegal's welfare/foodstamps
      , schooling and medicaid?? It sure the fuck isn't those illegals
      who DON'T PAY TAXES.
      COME HERE THE LEGAL WAY AND GIVE INSTEAD OF ALWAYS TAKE-TAKE-TAKE!
      Instead of fixing the land you and your parents/grandparents, great grandparents
      came from and probably had a HUGE HAND in screwing it up, you wanna come here TO CHANGE
      WHAT YOU CAME HERE FOR?? Try going to Iraq, Iran, Russia, China….go change their
      laws and demand they give you what they have, see what happens.
      Or, stay in America…appreciate and repay YOUR DEBTS or get the fuck out..



    6. 206

      Re: guessmyname – Bullshit.
      Just take a ride down a few city streets, see the illegals looking for work. They are NOT PAYING TAXES. They are working for cash for Americans hellbent on having a hand in destroying America. They need to leave, too.
      STOP HIRING ILLEGALS AMERICA!

      Deep breathe THIS LAW DOES NOTHING TO SECURE YOUR BORDERS! NOTHING AT ALL!

      -
      This law doesn't do that it just hands them over FEDS and then if they are kicked out the border is still opened and they will come back again!
      -
      This law just harasses anyone that looks Mexican and really achieves nothing but gets the Republican governor and republican majority re-elected when they were losing by 20-25% in the polls before this!

      Re: Pat MaGroin – ROFL, What benefits are they receiving? They can't have medical insurance..They can't have dental and vision insurance. What exactly are they receiving? So what are they receiving education for their kids? LOL..The American education system is a joke and I'd hardly call that a "benefit"..Life isn't much better here then it was in their country if they are illegal. You feeling the need to insult my intelligence the very first sentence in you argument just proves you're a fuck up that can't supply any valid arguments to support your point..In fact you didn't even tell me ONE thing to back up anything. But then again, I'm arguing with a person that reads a celebrity gossip site daily..oi



    9. 209

      Re: NookiesWA – again, they ARE receiving benefits through stolen identity and theft via AHCCCS for medical care. As far as acute medical care, there's not an ER in the State that will turn away someone with serious injuries. Are you even in AZ ?? You couldn't possibly understand until you've sat in an ER with appendicitis with a health plan i paid big $ for me and my family, only to watch hispanics named "O'Keefe" get admitted for a cough as I enter the first stages of sepsis. IT IS HAPPENING, CITIZENS ARE BEING OVERRUN BY THOSE WHO SHIRK THE LAWS.



    10. 210

      I'm SICK of these idiots claiming that this type of issue is "about hate". It's not about hate and if you are too stupid to grasp what it really is about, then please try to educate yourself before assuming the rest of us who do understand the serious issues are not motivated by hatred. How dare you even claim such a thing? Give it up and come up with a rational argument if you feel you must.



    11. 211

      Any respect I had for Ricky Martin has just flown out the window. While I can understand people's desire to come here to America, they should do so LEGALLY, not by sneaking across the border at night and taking money out of the pockets of hard-working Americans and legal immigrants.

      When I was working for my local school district, those who complained the most about illegal immigration were Latinos who had been born here in the U.S.; as a matter of fact, the term "wetback", i.e., illegals who sneak across the Rio Grande into America, was thrown around on an almost constant basis by these Latinos. Think about that.

      Hey there you Illegals and Liberals like Aussieone, and Union Bosses, and Blacks,
      -
      You are like locusts picking one area clean, and then look for another area to devour. You give new meaning to the “Vultures of Calcutta”.
      -
      I watch a home improvement show called, “Holmes on Homes”. This builder comes in and fixes really shameful remodel projects gone bad. He comes in and routs the house to the original framework of all the rot and mildew and accumulated crap. He turns this nightmare into a showpiece…better than ever imagined.

      Be afraid. We’re coming for you, to take you out. It’s what the Teaparty is about. We’re taking our country back to what our genius Founding Fathers intended. We’ve only just begun to fight.

      Re: Tucson AZ Girl!! – The process of becoming LEGAL takes YEARS!!!! In my parents case it took them 10 years and when you don't have that kind of time people do the impossible to come here ASAP. Therefore they risk there lives. I constantly see people drown by swimming or die of dehydration/starvation by crossing the desert. Well what is wrong with wanting the American life. I mean when people say do it LEGAL and wait. Yeah when you aren't living in necessity you can say anything. But if you have actually lived it. Than you have a right to comment also.



    15. 215

      How many years has John McCain had to work within the system to change immigration policy? How many of those years were under Republican leadership? This law (which by necessity of amendment confirms its racist intent) is simply another EPIC FAIL on part of Arizona. If the only way you can govern is to ignore a problem till it reaches critical mass then create illegal laws and call them solutions then perhaps Arizona deserves the situation in which it finds itself.
      =
      On the upside, it makes Republicans around the country appear to be even more disconnected from reality.



    16. 216

      Re: sid_vicious – Well we both agree on 1 thing that they actually WORK for money. I'd be pissed at the fact that actual American citizens just sit at home ALL F*CKEN day just waitng for their welfare check to come in the mail. While others chose to WORK. So lets say that illegals don't pay taxes.
      You mean to tell me that it bothers you that illegals are working for whatever they can get. Then actual US CITIZENS WHO ARE BORN HERE here chose to live of welfare/EBT for years. At least they are trying to work for cash. Not like other lazy bums who live off the welfare or asking for change outside stores or off freeway ramps.



    17. 217

      Till there is no reason (like money from low paying jobs or American demand for drugs) for people to cross the borders they will continue to come back. It's absurd to think that sending them back is going to prevent them from returning. Anyone who disagrees with this is simply delusional and not focused on durable solutions.



    18. 218

      Re: Tucson AZ Girl!! – On the sheriff being shot that is a terrible lost and yes those people are assholes and deserve to rot in prison for the rest of there lives. However you cannot say that only illegals shoot and kill people because we all know that it's not the case. Like those terriost who were behind the 911 attacks were LEGAL citizens. And we know they killed many innocent people. That does not mean that ALL LEGAL citizens are as guilty as the next LEGAL citizen right. The media is now going to brainwash weak minded people that ALL Illegals are most likely murderers. Which it is absolutely NOT TRUE!!!

      Re: luvstotango – TEA bagger bozos have taken it in the nuts this week! 'Keep government out of our lives' castrated by Arizona's governor. 'Drill, baby, drill' becomes 'Spill, baby, spill' thanks to those who think regulations are not necessary, like underwear. Keep your (wing)nuts in a jockstrap why don't you?

      I am glad to see this topic getting so much attention. There are MORE people - including immigrants who enter this country the RIGHT way - who are SUPPORTING this law.

      Focus Illegals! If you're starting to look over your shoulder then GOOD.

      YOU SHOULD BE!

      Free ride is over. You have taken this country's kindness and good graces as a cesspool for weakness …. BIG MISTAKE and DEAD WRONG. Get legal and problem solved … unless you've got something to hide ??? Well Surprise, surprise, surprise … who knew?

      Oooorrr you can go to Ricky Moron's house! Show up on HIS doorstep with bags in hand and he'll take you in! He LOVES you cause you keep his face in the media. Stop by and tell him thanks, k?

      What a GREAT press moment that would be - a bunch of illegals showing up at his doorstep wanting him to give them shelter and foot the bills - hee hee heeee! A whole dollar says he never comes to the door - HYPOCRITE!!



    21. 221

      Putting a stop to discrimination, hate and racism? More like putting a stop to the entire country having the landscape of Tijuana, since a sizable portion of it already does.

      I love watching fatass liberals like Aussieone loose their mind when they get called out. Dude you say the same things over and over. Get some new material. You truely are pathetic. I have no idea why you think I live in California and have a Myspace that says I am an arib. Like I said, if you are ever in New York city you can look me up and I'll come personally pick you up in my Audi. You can meet my brother too. I showed him what you write and even he thinks you're a fucking lunatic. He said your probably just one of those fatass truck drivers who surfs the internet looking for little boys to touch. I wouldn't be suprised.



    24. 224

      Whoo! We love this new Ricky! Might i add he looks damn good in that suit.



    25. 225

      IT’S NOT RACISM- IT’S A LAW. Things going on in AZ shouldn’t be considered racist acts whatsoever and the people who are making it out to be that are severely uneducated. So Shakira, Ricky Martin, and whoever..just shut your mouths and go on making millions in the country you disagree with so much. Honestly, whenever a celebrity disagrees its only because they view it as racism, SAY SOMETHING INTELLIGENT ! Discrimination has nothing to do with why the people can’t be here. You can live here no matter where you are from you just have to LEGAL. Bottom line, it's a law, if you don't like it, don't stay here. No one, Hispanic, white, black, Asian, deserves to be here ILLEGALLY.

      Every other country has strict border laws. Why the HELL should we just let everyone just walk across and take billions from us? All because the radicals think they are getting their votes? Why should we care what some ignorant uninformed Hollywoood IDIOT thinks?



    28. 228

      People Putting down this law DON'T live here in Arizona! In fact I believe a poll showed about 73% Of Arizona residents are FOR this Law! It isn't about racism. At All. I'm so sorry but it is called being ILLEGAL for a Reason. It is ILLEGAL for them to be here. That means Against the LAW! Arizona is a mess from Illegal Immigrants, The Crime Rates, The Drain on our Economy to Pay for them, The fact that they are not paying taxes to pay for anything, That they are Sending money Out of our country (Where they earned it) and to another Country instead of putting it back into the economy that just paid them, the Drop Houses, Etc, ETC. These are just some of the many, many reasons that Arizonians are Fed up and want our Immigration laws Enforced! If the FED's would just do Their job and Enforce The law that THEY made then maybe AZ wouldn't have had to take a hard line to enforce that law. This law is needed and that is why it was passed and why so many people here are for it. If you can come up with a better way to stop the Illegals then please volunteer that Info! Why doesn't anyone mention Mexico's policy on Illegals? Mexico Freaked out when Soldiers were posted along our border, but ask them about their southern borders which are policed by Their ARMY?
      Again this law is needed here in Arizona. This Law is Wanted in Arizona. If you actually Read this law it is Plain to see it is NOT RACIST! Anyone who does not live in Arizona should keep their opinion to themselves!

If we are talking about who deregulated the banks and created to big to fail its Reagan (in a massive way) Bush (a little more) Clinton (a little more with the Republican congress) and then Bush jnr pushed it all the way home.

      In the summer, he kills dolphins.
      At night, he uses night vision and kills owls.
      Believe it or not, killing doves is really a lot more entertainment for us, than watching the bug zapper on Saturday night. It's close.
      In the winter, he traps nutria, beaver, sable (my 2nd favorite) and chinchillias (my favorite). Fur coats are the best….you never go back to manmade substances. You have no idea, what we do out here, in the outback of Ft. Worth, Texas.

If ILLEGALS are breaking the law they will be asked for ID - If they are here ILLEGALLY then they will be detained and sent back. If you are not breaking the law, you won't be bothered!

      Question.
      Is Sweden full of racist people? They will not let you immigrate there unless you have a four year degree, have a job and home there, and know Swedish. Oh yeah guess what their doing a pretty damn good job over there, if only we could emulate it. oh and for those who can't speak english ¿Está Suecia llena de personas racistas? Ellos no permitirán que usted inmigrar allí a menos que tenga un cuatro grado de año, tenga un trabajo y en casa allí, y conozca a sueco. Ah sí la adivinación lo que su hacer un pinche trabajo bueno bonito allí, si solamente nosotros lo podríamos emular.

      this is so funny. my grandmother was not a legal immigrant. however she received a card stating she was legally allowed to work in this country. she paid taxes and everything. dont think that an illegal immigrant is deserved to be special. my grandma had to go through processes but she did it and thats nothing to say for these lazy fucks who wont take initiative. im mexican and i can say the truth about these people. cmon perez, youre paying taxes arent you? do you wanna keep paying for these people even though you arent obligated?? just because youre illegal doesnt mean the mexicans are being discriminated against

      Re: rideburton51 – Few argue U.S. immigration policy needs improvement and Sweden may offer a model of how our national policy can effectively change. The issue is not the need for reform; the issue at hand is the way and means decided by a state to supercede the Constitution. I doubt Sweden's policy compares to our situation, yet racism is not limited to the United States.

    51. 251

      I don't think stopping illegal immigrants is a bad thing. With the rancher that was recently murdered and the sherriff being shot, not to mention the kidnappings taking place in Arizona to LEGAL immigrants and Americans, it is a necessary evil. Ricky, keep your opinions to yourself since you don't even live in Arizona.

      ok, this is getting ridiculous!! How can illegals complain about their rights being violated when they aren't citizens? HELLO? wft?

      There's been near-riots in Phoenix, and Democrats in congress are in an awful frenzy. Al Sharpton has hauled his lying, race-pimping posterior to Arizona and wants to lead some marches. About what? What a bunch of B.S. When we travel to Mexico, we must have our PASSPORT to enter. If we were stopped by the Policia, we must present our PASSPORT. If we didn't have our PASSPORT, do you think the Policia would be ever so kind and let us go? hahaha We would end up in the Slammer so, What's the huge deal about having to show a PASSPORT (documentation) in the States? As citizens of the States, we must show proof of drivers license and insurance, therefore, if we are required to have proof and the ILLEGALS are not, isn't that racist? This country is being over-ran by ILLEGALS who are sucking us dry. Our government doesn't care about that. They only want votes, and you be-damned.

      one more thing, It is so easy to scream Nazi or Racist or Fascist and not so easy to engage in rational debate, particularly when it’s painfully obvious that you don’t have any logic or facts to back up your position on the issue.

      THERE IS A BIG DEFERENCE BETWEEN SHOWING A PASSPORT AT YOUR BORDER AND SHOWING YOUR PAPER WITHIN THE BORDERS TO A STATE POLICE FORCE!
      -
      RACIAL PROFILING IS WRONG!

      THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO ME TO BE THE RIGHT WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM!

      AZ HARASSING HISPANIC LOOKING PEOPLE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING TO CLOSE THE HOLES IN YOUR BORDERS.

      Let's have a "One World Order" with no borders and Obama can be Il Duce Obama. Us white folks can keep on working for all the other new immigrants of the world. Yeah. That sounds like a plan!

      Re: @v@ – I love Mike on, "Holmes on Homes" too!
      He's sort of an ordinary sort of guy when you first see him, and then a few shows into it, you start looking at him like he's Superman, coming in to 'save the day' with that 'I can fix everything in your world' and you want to be with him. Love him! Now I see major hotness when I look at him.

      Ater a long line of metrosexuals in my life: father, step-father, a previous husband, every boyfriend I've ever had, and a an ex-son-in-law, they couldn't do squat around the house. When the vacuum cleaner broke, ALL of these men would just go buy another vacuum cleaner because they didn't know to buy the $2 rubber agitator ring, to turn the beaters, to fix it. I didn't even know you could fix these things either!

      It's fantastic to have a hubbie to TKB…take care of business around the house and have 24/7 IT computer care. In my youth, I would overlook the 'blue collar worker' because they were the "help". I was very snoothy at one time, yes, it's hard to believe about me. haha I've long since been reeducated!

      FIRSTLY YOUR STATEMENT ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE PAYING TAXES IS RACIST! PEOPLE OF ALL RACES PAY TAX EVEN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS

      I SUPPORT DO SUPPORT A WORLD WITHOUT BORDERS BUT I DO THINK EVERYONE SHOULD PAY TAXES IN THE COUNTRY THE WORK IN.

      Re: Aussieone – P.S. Sure you'd like me. No one talks in public like we write here on this blog…you'd have to either be in jail or work in the White House to speak like this.

      It's called being civil. You're polite. Every single person on the planet, goes to work, and puts on their "public business persona" and acts with civility. You're paid to do a job.

      Have worked for Libs for 35 years, just like ex-Goldman Sachs, ex- New Jersey Governor, Jon Corzine since 1967 on Wall Street and then in Silcon Valley, CA. No time for that. I wasn't paid to like them or be in sync with them politically.

      You do what you got to do to feed your family. I'd work for a "Green Technology" company, if the money was right. But the big money for an Administrative Assistant is Wall Street and venture capital.

      Come now Aussieone, you know you'd like me. Everyone does.
      It would be part of my job to make it happen.

      Stop illegal immigration. Team AZ. I am all about different cultures in our country, but do it legally and learn the language for pete's sake.

      Can you imagine a contractor destroying Monique's kitchen or bathroom? The offending contractor's head, would be on a stake outside the front door, greeting Mike's crew when they would roll up to do the show. No one messes with Monique!

      If he doesn't live in AZ he should shut up
      not his business and he's just badwagoning

      Ricky Martin and everyone else opposing this law are supporting drug runners; armed coyotes; drop houses; extradition; forced labor; forced prostitution of illegals; murder of Arizona citizens on their own property; assault on law enforcement officers!
      Arizona Needs enforcement of Immigration Laws! Go Arizona!

      Re: Uh!!!COLON!!! wtf. – "This bill is nearly identical to a federal law on the books. The Alien Registration Act of 1940 was signed into law by none other than Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt. In fact, the Alien Registration Act requires that “every alien, eighteen years of age and over, shall at all times carry with him and have in his personal possession any certificate of alien registration or alien registration receipt card issued to him.”
      The simple fact is that under federal law, documented aliens should already be carrying this documentation with them, and this outcry against Arizona for deciding to actually check for this documentation is not founded in reality.
      The Arizona law even goes so far as to state that race alone is not sufficient reason to check a person’s immigration status.The federal government is failing Arizona in immigration and border enforcement, and Arizona is justified in banning the practice of turning a blind eye to immigration status within their borders."

      AMEN!
