“Those
who enter the country illegally and those who employ them disrespect the rule
of law. They are showing disregard for those who are following the law. We
cannot allow people to pour into the U.S. undetected, undocumented, unchecked
and circumventing the line of people who are lawfully waiting to become
immigrants.” --Barack Hussein
Obama, Holy See of The Alt Left
On
June 23, Stephanie Leutert of the Lawfare Strauss Center For International
Security (in The Republic of Austin--but wait til you see what her stats
actually show) released a study aimed squarely at discrediting the Trump
Administration’s fear of open borders and cited that the President’s claim of
MS-13 gang members pouring across the border was a mere .075% of captured
illegals according to her research.
But
buried in her data was the admission that in 2000, there were 1,643,677 illegals
who crossed into the U.S. along our southern border and in 2017 that number had
been cut to 303,916. A reduction of over
80%! Moreover, Leutert neglected to let CNN edit her data and blamed
the reduction on an increase in border patrol agents from 9,147 to 16,605 and an
increase of 750 miles of new fencing.
Sounds
like someone keeping an election promise to me.
A
June 18 Gallup News Poll shows that 62% of Americans (regardless of party) feel
that Donald Trump keeps his promises. Fifty nine percent rate him a strong and
decisive leader, and 53% believe he can bring about the change the country
needs. Additionally, the poll showed a 12-year high satisfaction with the
country’s direction. Didn’t see that on MSN did ya’?
Sorry,
big blue wave fans.
A
June 27 poll by Axios, a millennial website, revealed that 90% of republicans
disbelieve anything the media says and prefer to do their own research for the
truth. Seventy two percent of
Americans, regardless of party, disbelieve the media. Sorry blue tricklers, you’re
losing the kids too.
Are
there millennial republicans? You bet your hindquarters. I know a bunch of ‘em.
My kids and most (certainly not all) of their friends are nearly as
conservative as I am. (Well, ok, that’s just my opinion—no quantifiable
measuring stick on degree of conservatism.) Fox News just won’t show them to
you for some reason. It seems Sean and the crew (those lying bastards) would
prefer to portray an entire generation of the more stereotypical millennial snowflakes,
barely able to tie their shoes and use toilet paper.
Not
so. They’re out there and they are great kids. They are probably going to do a
better job with this country than our generation has. Even most of the liberal
kids I know aren’t idiots. They’re hard-working and sharp as can be, just
idealistic as many youngsters probably ought to be.
So
last week I heard a radio report that at one border patrol station in Arizona
in one week agents arrested 22 illegals, mostly in two vans of eight and nine
each. In those two vans were three MS-13 gang members and two Barrio 18 gang
members (presumably not in the same van). A considerably higher percentage than Leutert’s research would indicate
but it is one isolated report.
Additionally
there was one backpack full of assorted but unspecified illegal drugs which the
young men in the boy’s clubs apparently just found along the way because no one
wanted to claim it. There were also two underage female human trafficking
victims.
Separately
a young girl and her “uncle” were picked up. She
must’ve been related to her auntie because there was no dna match between the
minor girl and her uncle. Someone did call anonymously to claim her as a family
member but declined an opportunity to come to the station and provide evidence
of relation or to pick her up.
The
girl reported to authorities that her parents had told her she had been sold to
a woman in Michigan (specific whereabouts unknown to the child) to work off the payment
by performing domestic duties. There was no time frame specified for payment of
said debt.
The Washington Post recently “analyzed”
data from a study done by the Government Accountability Office and took
exception to President Trump’s assertion that illegals are more criminal than
their legal counterparts. WAPO concluded that there was no solid data to
support a correlation between illegal immigration and crime.
According to Florida State
University criminologist David Mears in a separate on-line article, this could
be due to a focus on intake (arrest) records where information on illegals is
scarce because citizenship isn’t always noted in records and in some states
(California) is never noted.
So when The American Thinker did
a fact check of WAPO’s “fact check” of President Trump’s claims they found that
while illegals are estimated at 3.5% of the U.S. population they were incarcerated at rates of 25%-39% during the 2005-2013 period of the study WAPO
allegedly scrutinized.
Additionally, the GAO found 3,000,000
crimes attributable to illegals from ’05 to ’09, including 25,064 homicides, a
ratio 4 times higher for murders by illegals per 100,000 illegals v. murders per
100,000 by legal residents. A rate of 22% to 37% of all U.S. murders were
committed during that time period by illegals.
Perhaps this will make things a
little more relevant--for incarcerated criminals between 2005 and 2009 the following
rates of crime were directly attributable to illegals:
*15 murders per day
*9 kidnappings per day
*43 sex offenses per day
*71 burglaries per day
*131 assaults per day
I take severe exception to
Leutert’s and WAPO’s conclusions that we have little to fear from “undetected,
undocumented, and unchecked” illegals pouring across our border.
The Kate Stienle murder in San
Francisco is only “anecdotal” as CNN reported it if you want to accept that
25,064 homicides were anecdotal.
I would like to think that only
in California is it possible for a seven-time deported illegal alien with
multiple felony arrests to shoot an innocent young woman in the face at point
blank range and be found guilty of only an “unfortunate accident.”
Oh, and throw this in, Business
Insider, Politifact, USA Today, the DEA, Kiss-My-Ass-News and several other
sources all agree that 90% of this country’s heroin is smuggled in across the
Mexican border. Much of it comes in creative vehicle compartments straight
through customs lines but literally tons of it is smuggled across the Sonoran
Desert National Monument by drug mules (no, not actual mules, kids) with
backpacks. They are picked up by prearranged contact along Interstate 8 and
driven to “stock houses” in Arizona and California primarily.
Pinal County (AZ) Sheriff Paul
Babese estimates cartel operatives have 75-100 lookout posts in his county
alone watching for incoming drugs and law enforcement and making sure the two
rarely intersect. Babese and his deputies routinely find storage depots and
abandoned campsites that show cartel support personnel ferry water, food,
batteries and supplies to illegal mules.
The wailing liberal hearts on CNN
and Facebook (there should be a difference but there isn’t) are absolutely
right that many poor Central Americans only want a better life for their
families and are seeking political asylum. Many of them are. And in spite of
the fact that the left wants to claim compassion, love and human decency as
exclusively liberal qualities I don’t know a single conservative who wouldn’t welcome
those people into this country as
friends and neighbors if they would check in at the front desk.
But you have got to be
braindead, idiot-level stupid to not recognize that there is a flip side to
that coin and that woven into the ranks of the decent people seeking a better
life are a whole bunch of people who don’t care if they rape your wife and
murder your children or dump eight kilos of heroin at your local grade school.
Not to mention the flood of
human trafficking which no one has a handle on because it is so well hidden and
insidious. How can anyone turn a blind eye to the need to examine each family
attempting to cross to make sure they are a family and not a child-prostitution
smuggling ring?
I swear to God, if I see one more
“Being Human is Not Illegal” sign, all words properly spelled or not, I am
going to turn someone’s rectum inside out. Of course being human isn’t illegal you
dipsticks and the hell with you for thinking such sentiment is your province.
Listen to a few Angel Moms for 30 minutes and decide if you have a right to
sentence someone’s child to death because you own a rainbow tie-died T-shirt.
And Congress still hasn’t given
us immigration reform. All they’ve done is continue to blame the President for
not doing their job and make enough noise to cover up the release of the
Inspector General’s Report documenting the highest levels of treason and
government corruption in the history of the country. Coincidence?
Ask yourself this, do you want
to live in a country where immigration policy is up to whomever happens to be
President at the moment or would you rather have a legal process for
immigration locked into place to be debated and decided, if necessary, by our
legal system? I can’t believe any thinking person would find in favor of
dictatorial tactics.
The law states that illegals
with children caught sneaking in will be turned around and sent home the first
time and since 1996 second-timers will be considered felons and be separated
from their children because that actually seems more humane than incarcerating
the kids in general pop.
That’s the law. Can you change
stuff with executive orders? Apparently, for a few weeks or until there's a new president. Should you be able to? Again, do you
want it left up to the whim of whoever is sleeping in the White House?
This is Congress’ responsibility
and/or fault, not President Trump’s. Shame on those cowards of both parties for
blaming the President for laws they don’t have the guts to tackle. I’m not sure
what the most humane thing to do with the kids is but I know that border
security is an absolute, non-negotiable must have.
Yet in return for the Wall; in
return for a more sane system than chain migration and a visa lottery system,
the President has basically offered immunity to another 1.8 million non-citizens, about half of whom are popularly known as DACA kids. And the democrats continue to turn their back
on it.
If the left also wants higher or
eliminated quotas of people from Central and South American countries you might
be surprised how much conservative support you could get. I would support a
form of that and liberals hate my guts, at least I hope they do.
Call your congressperson and ask
them to craft some sort of legislation raising quotas until good, hard-working,
asylum-seeking persons no longer feel the need to sneak in. Craft it in a
manner that determines such people are in a position to contribute to our
country and are interested in pursuing citizenship and I’ll make noise on your
behalf all day long.
But stop giving Congress a free
pass to sit on their hands and whine like spoiled children and hold them
accountable to do their freaking jobs.
Also, many of us would appreciate
it if you would stop asking Americans to continue to allow crime and criminals
to come across the border without so much as a “Hey, how ya’ doin’?” Even if
you are that stupid, we are not and we won the election and the way things look
now, we’ll likely win the next one.
There aren’t as many of you as
CNN keeps telling you there are.
