The black community has been affected by Illegal Immigration tremendously and we’d like to “Help Save Manassas”!

ZERO TOLERANCE for Illegals!

My son’s father-in-law is a Vietnamese, who worked with the US Army during the Viet war. We wanted him to come for a month’s visit. We sent documents showing financial assets, swore that he would not be a burden to the government. letter from our congressman. No dice! We tried THREE times and were turned down every time. Each visit to the consulate costs between 75-100 dollars. He owned his home in Vietnam, he had two younger children and a wife at home, yet the consulate told us he couldn’t come because he might “disappear” here. - My son wanted to bring his wife and baby here for a first visit (he lives in Saigon). I don’t know how many times they had to visit the consulate. The Consul General is all-mighty. They finally got the visa. - I’ve also had icy treatment at the consulate in Jakarta - outcome negative.

I don’t believe in open borders, but I can understand why poor people try their darndest to bypass the consulate.

Met Greg around 3:30-4:00. Fair wasn’t open at noon.
Mea culpa.

We saw a few hogs and some old goats. Then we went to the area where they have the actual livestock.

Met Greg too. Pleasant experience. He’s a rather gangly fellow, I might add, with quite a charm.
I didn’t catch the name of the lady that was with him in the booth (sorry!).

Our member are VERY generous and it actually humbles me to see how much they give. If not for the generosity of our loyal members there is so much we would not be able to accomplish, like the fair. Some of our members give us donations every month, some have given extremely large donations for specific purposes. And now is a great time for me to thank all of you have given your time or money to help further the cause of Help Save Manassas.

People finally feel that there is some hope out there! The Help Save groups are it!

Mr. Young,

Our meetings are routinely “standing room only”. So much so, we have had to search for a larger venue. Like any organization, we have our hard-chargers, and we have our wall-flowers. All are important, for the simple fact that they email, make phone calls, and most of all, vote.

Rather than compare HSM to a local political committee, I believe a more accurate comparison would be an issue-oriented group, like the NRA. The NRA has a huge membership ( I have heard 4 million). At their annual convention, they might get 20-30,000. But, when Wayne Lapierre lobbies congress, he is representing 4 Million members. When Greg and his Executive Members speak before a local jurisdiction representing HSM 1500-2000 voters spread out through the three localities is a pretty significant number. If you consider that in a locality like Manassas Park, which routinely has very low voter turnout, the ability to have 200-300 issue-oriented voters get to the polls can influence an election. No other citizens advocacy group or political committee membership can concentrate as much meaningful, local pressure to bear, from within their own ranks. VCDL comes close, but they don’t have that many members who reside in Manassas, Manassas Park and Prince William.

Rick,
You can stop being disappointed, your calls and letters did not go unnoticed!
HSM happened as a direct result of leads from your delegates office!

I’m glad we have Greg, Dan, Maureen, Steve, and all the rest of the HSM crew and members. But if you really want to thank the one person who made this happen, show up at the polls and vote for Jackson Miller.
