Gracias Sister Ann ~ You are in a HUMANE Rights Group and that is with an 'e'. As a Group policy all people can join and all people can post without censorship. In general, this has worked well, though sometimes we get a wingnut or a sex fiend posting. Freedom of expression is a humane right.Sadly, John Perna has his Group Membership set to NO EMAIL and that irritated me as that means that he may not check out feedbacks or be open to constructive criticism,and could be using our group as a dumping ground for Ron Paul. I have run into him before online. His postings are now set to Moderated that must be Approved by a Moderator! Ron Perna would have to check out postings at the Humane-Rights-Agenda Home Page:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Humane-Rights-Agenda/
I do not have the time nor inclination to check out all group postings and I am glad you caught this drivel from Perna. You have your Group Membership set to Daily Digest. When I make the time, I Edit Membership for Members to at least receive Special Notices, which are extremely rare.
I checked out the Ron Paul Home Page @
http://www.ronpaul2008.com/issues/border-security-and-immigration-reform/
Cleary Ron Paul is a backward reactionary man in his thinking and is not truly humane. I have a radical position on immigrant righs, which are a part of the whole spectrum of humane rights in general, yet it is only radical because we live in such backward reactionary times.
I support GENERAL AMNESTY for all immigrants and do not even believe in the concept of divisions such as national borders that global corporate capitalism overrides all the time in pursuit of war as it continues to build up an entire economy based upon war and mass killings.

I was pleased to see your http://www.unityblueprint.org/ website!
Plus, keep in mind that among my other responsibilities I am also a Moderator for a few other groups and into global news. I am the Moderator for Network Aztlan News Yahoo Group and am a key player and associated with the Network Aztlan website: http://www.networkaztlan.com/

Thus, due to your alertness and aliveness:
YOU HAVE B EEN DRAFTED AS A MODERATOR FOR THE HUMANE RIGHTS AGENDA and can Invite/Add Members. Thus, it should be light for you. We also have a couple of other Moderators. I have rarely banned anyone as I want the Group to be inclusive and sometimes a reactionary posting can help stimulate further analyses and discussions.

In my real life when I am not online, I am a Counselor at the local Salvation Army Homeless Shelter and a lot of my life revolves around helping homeless people secure safe, stable and secure housing. plus, I work with a Christian recovery group called CASA with a major focus on helpless homeless addicts get into the healing recovery progress:

Thus, my time is tight, I sleep a few hours a night and deal with a large multitude of daily tasks. Help us!
I am not thrilled about any major candidate for the Presidency, though I favor Obama and am now a Registered Democrat, after leaving the Green Party.
I dig the bravery of Dennis Kucinich, though he has no chance of really winning nor did Nader in 2000, though I voted for him.
Recall: I voted for Nader when I thought Gore would win by a landslide! Then, the Evil One Bush stole the election in a legal coup-de-etat!
I just want people to wake up, get off their asses, go outside and organize and make sure to VOTE on VOTING DAY!
Give me feedback! I see you are in Texas, a great state with lots of great people!
Remember we should keep posts on a group level and can send single individual Emails to specific group members.
Power to the People! Educate to Liberate!

Am I in the right group? Believing this a Human Rights group I am more then a little shocked to see the Ron Paul Support here.
So I ask John Perna and FTR Network
This is a human rights candidate? Here is his stand:
The talk must stop. We must secure our borders now. A nation without secure borders is no nation at all. It makes no sense to fight terrorists abroad when our own front door is left unlocked. This is my six point plan:For those who are human rights advocates, we know there are better ways then his.
- Physically secure our borders and coastlines. We must do whatever it takes to control entry into our country before we undertake complicated immigration reform proposals.
- Enforce visa rules. Immigration officials must track visa holders and deport anyone who overstays their visa or otherwise violates U.S. law. This is especially important when we recall that a number of 9/11 terrorists had expired visas.
- No amnesty. Estimates suggest that 10 to 20 million people are in our country illegally. That's a lot of people to reward for breaking our laws.
- No welfare for illegal aliens. Americans have welcomed immigrants who seek opportunity, work hard, and play by the rules. But taxpayers should not pay for illegal immigrants who use hospitals, clinics, schools, roads, and social services.
- End birthright citizenship. As long as illegal immigrants know their children born here will be citizens, the incentive to enter the U.S. illegally will remain strong.
- Pass true immigration reform. The current system is incoherent and unfair. But current reform proposals would allow up to 60 million more immigrants into our country, according to the Heritage Foundation. This is insanity. Legal immigrants from all countries should face the same rules and waiting periods.
- Voted YES on building a fence along the Mexican border. (Sep 2006)
- Voted YES on preventing tipping off Mexicans about Minuteman Project. (Jun 2006)
- Voted YES on reporting illegal aliens who receive hospital treatment. (May 2004)
Want real immigration reform? One with human rights as the core? Then check out http://www.unityblueprint.org/
The Unity Blueprint advances the following goals:- Protect the well-being and safety of immigrant and U.S. citizen children.- Achieve faithful enforcement of immigration laws by fully reinstating the jurisdiction of the federal courts to review agency decisions involving immigrants.- Achieve maximum protection of the labor rights and working conditions of U.S. and immigrant workers through enhanced labor protections available to all workers regardless of immigration status.- Achieve maximum reduction in the size of the undocumented population through a program granting prompt permanent resident status to undocumented migrants.- Achieve a legal framework for future migration through the issuance of a realistic number of permanent employment and family-based visas.- Adopt rational and humane border enforcement policies that avoid more deaths, injuries, and destruction of border communities.- Adopt rational and humane interior enforcement, detention, removal, and related policies addressing the presence of immigrant communities.We believe that immigrant families contribute to our society and culture and help meet our labor force needs. We also believe that a revised employment-based immigration system should strive to use objective economic factors to determine labor market needs and should produce immigrant visa numbers in proportion to labor shortages. A rational visa issuance process would result in immigration waiting lines being relatively current and affected only by processing time.We do not believe that walling-in the borders, the current regime of employer sanctions, and large-scale domestic enforcement are productive in reducing or controlling undocumented migration. Such measures have not in the past stopped migration or forced undocumented migrants to leave the United States. Instead, they simply drive immigrants underground, encourage a black market in immigrant labor, and cause the separation of families.Nor do such enforcement approaches in any way address the underlying root causes that drive migration to the United States, including massive inequality in wealth distribution, economic dislocation in major sending communities, the U.S. demand for labor, and free trade agreements that have caused workers to lose their jobs in migrant sending communities.While we are making specific proposals to vastly improve the rationality of U.S. policy, we also recognize that immigration policies should not be imposed unilaterally but developed cooperatively through multilateral agreements similar to those used to govern international flows of capital, goods, commodities, and information. The Unity Blueprint supporters believe that nations have responsibilities beyond their borders, and unilateral actions taken by the United States can have serious negative repercussions for other countries linked to it in the global system. We therefore recommend that the United States engage in bi-national and multilateral discussions with major migrant sending countries to arrive at a coherent and long-term set of migration policies.Dennis Kucinich, U.S. Rep. and Presidential Candidate
Is the only presidential candidate who is listed as an endorser. ._,_.___<>~+~<>~+~<>~+~<>~+~<>~+~<>~+~<>~+~<>~+~<>
