Second "Year of the South" Survey Results Released by the Southern National Congress Committee
SNC News Service
MARION, VA; July 4, 2007. The Southern National Congress Committee today released the results of the second “Year of the South” Survey. Terry Compton, SNC Committee Director of Communications, explained, “The series of Year of the South Surveys is our on-going effort to inform ourselves fully about Southern attitudes, concerns, and grievances, so that the future Congress can be effective as an alternative, legitimate voice for the South and our people. This second survey deals with an issue of deep concern to Americans of all regions, but to us Southerners in particular -- the crisis of mass Third World immigration.”
Thomas Moore, Chairman of the Southern National Congress Committee, observed, “The U.S. Senate has just defeated – twice -- the so-called comprehensive immigration reform bill. If it had passed, it would have destroyed what’s left of America. That our governing elites and leaders of both national political parties were so bent on betraying us, and that we so narrowly averted a disaster for our civilization, is something to mourn, not celebrate, on this Fourth of July.”
“The Southern people spoke with a loud and persistent voice against the bill, perhaps more effectively than any other region,” Moore said. “With a few shameful exceptions, Southern Senators voted against it. It was Southern Senators like Jim DeMint of South Carolina and David Vitter of Louisiana who heeded the interests of their States and took the lead in sending this travesty down to defeat. Against the backdrop of these recent events, it comes as no surprise that respondents to the SNCC Survey overwhelmingly oppose the invasion of unassimilated aliens from the Third World across our unsecured borders, and they do not trust the government or the current political system to do anything about it.”

The Federal Government has not
fulfilled its constitutional obligation to secure our borders; and in fact
the behavior of the Federal Government encourages mass immigration and
worsens the problem of a growing population of unassimilated aliens. |

Neither major political party nor
the current political system can be relied upon to secure the borders and
stop the virtual invasion of illegal immigrants. |

Thomas Moore also noted, “I must remind my fellow Southerners that the defeat of the immigration bill by itself did not and will not stop the Third World invasion and the Government’s willful failure to secure our borders. It only prevented codifying into law today’s unacceptable immigration conditions and adding another 12-20 million aliens to the population rolls. It has, for a time at least, kept a crisis from becoming a catastrophe. But mass immigration, both legal and illegal, continues. And this invasion continues to over-strain our economy and social services to the breaking point, to the tune of $338 billion per year we taxpayers must pay for illegal aliens to receive food stamps, Medicaid and other free medical care, public education, and free school lunches.”
“It also saddens me to point out that illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate two and a half times that of non-illegal aliens. The invaders are overloading our prisons, costing millions of dollars per day to incarcerate them. In fact, 30 percent of all Federal prison inmates are illegal aliens. Illegal aliens commit nearly one million sex crimes per year.” (See ‘The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration: Nearly One Million Sex Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants in the United States.’ HERE)
“The Third World invasion continues to displace our working poor and drive them deeper into poverty – many of whom are our fellow Southerners, both black and white. Our friends and neighbors are losing an estimated $200 billion a year in suppressed wages, thanks to mass immigration.”
Moore concluded, “These findings, and the heedless betrayal and dereliction of duty of our Government and the two major parties, show conclusively why we need a Southern National Congress to provide an alternative, legitimate forum in which Southerners can voice their grievances and concerns.”
The SNC Committee will conduct future surveys via southernnationalcongress.org.
