Let's be clear Dear Editor: Heard today that the new Courtesy submission On July 27, 1953 the United Nations, with its most prominent supporter, the United States of America, signed a truce with Communist North Korea. That agreement has remained rela- tively stable for the past 60 years. The USA also signed a peace treaty with Communist North Vietnam 40 years ago; a treaty the North Vietnamese broke 2 years later. The subsequent invasion of South Vietnam, and the overall instability of Southeast Asia that followed, resulted in the killing of over 3 million of the region's inhabitants. Both the Korean War and the Vietnam War have been referred to by some histori- ans as continuing conflicts of the Second World War. Please join the Rodeo, NM area community in commemorat- • ing the 60th and 40th anniversa- ries of these wars that helped stop communist aggression. This 4th of July Parade in Rodeo will in- clude parade entries from partici- pants of both conflicts. The Ro- deo 4th of July Parade will be held on Independence Day starting at 6 pm. There is also a need for vet- erans of these wars to join one or both of the parade entries (some ° A friend or relative. Korean War participants can be considered anyone involved in the initial battles to those serving in South Korea today. To join in the celebration please call Craig McEwan at 520- 558-0369. immigration bill has been writ- ten on so many pieces of paper that it. already weighs 24 lbs. That is huge!! Nobody can read that!! To use some of Obama's own words, "Let's be clear" on immigration. Let's let every- body get a fair shake. Appar- ently there's 11 million law- breakers here, the Pres, demo- crats & some republicans want to give them amnesty, (at least that is what ole John McCain said, "We must pass this am- nesty bill) Humph,gag hurmp! He nearly choked on his tongue when he said it too. Ha ha. It's amazing the lies they tell! No how, to get a fair shake & have a fair share, they should also allow 11 million Germans, 11 million French, 11 million En- glish, 11 million Japanese, 11 million Africans etc. To be fair they should all get a fair shake at becoming American citizens huh? All without shutting down the border. Ole Schummer said, "It will take years, years & years to get that done." In other words it is the same ole BULL HOCKEY. It seems funny that the NSA, IRS can find an American CITIZEN but the Government can't find 11 mil- lion illegals. In 1986 Reagan gave amnesty & congress was going to make sure the border is closed!! HA HA Didn't hap= pen Vote NO on immigration until the border is closed. Also the Constitution al- lows the right of citizens to keep & bear arms, the democrats want to disarm citizens, so to have my fair shake, lets be fair, take all democrats guns away from them. They are the ones that want it done, I think that's fair. Take their "body guards" guns away. Call your Senators & Congress people, vote NO on Gun Control. Nuff said for now God Bless our wonderful Military & our Country.
