Paid Advertisment "Proposition 187 Was The Last Gasp of White Americans in California" Former State Senator Art Torres, January 13, 1995 An Outrageous Statement Can you imagine a prominent American saying that Proposition 187 was the end of the brown invasion of America? There would have been a media outrage, that's what. But what happened when former State Senator Art Torres said that Proposition 187 was the "last gasp of white Americans in California?" Nothing. In fact, the words were kept from you. What is going on here? An invasion of America covered up by the power-elite, that's what! The Battle for California-- Mexican Nationalism Revealed On July 20, 1982, the leading newspaper in Mexico said, "The American Southwest seems to be slowly returning to the jurisdiction of Mexico without the firing of a single shot." On October 16, 1994, 100,000 people marched through downtown Los Angeles carrying the flag of Mexico. One large American flag was displayed, but it had only thirteen stars- a statement as to the "true ownership" of California. The motto of many "Chicano" advocates, including KMPC talk show host Xavier Hermosillo, is "We may not overcome, but we will overwhelm." We are being overwhelmed, as he said, "house-by-house and block-by-block." On February 5, 1995, the L.A. Times printed a VCT letter asserting that Southern California was being invaded by Mexico. Not one of the Times’ 1.5 million subscribers challenged us. In response to Proposition 187, the Mexican government is planning to grant dual citizenship to Mexican Nationals living in the United States. Why? Because many Mexicans don’t want to become U.S. citizens if they lose their Mexican citizenship! A researcher in Mexico City said, “Ours is a chauvinistic country where you were brought up with the idea that you are a Mexican always.” (Christian Science Monitor) On April 28th hundreds of Americans in Southern California were attacked on construction job sites by Mexican Nationals under the guise of a union movement. The police let them go. Five Million Californians Can't Be Wrong […] The Constitution is not a suicide pact! So What Can We Do?...Organize and Spread The Truth Those who are determined to overwhelm California are well financed and organized. They even have the government of Mexico behind them...and the American media. We Americans in California must now "hang together"- or we will certainly "hang" separately. This is your chance to help spread the truth about the invasion of California! […] VCT- Working to Save California- Peacefully at the ballot box.
