Arizona Cracks Down

It's time someone should document exactly what is going on in Arizona with their new law dealing with illegal immigrants. Okay, you talked me into it. I'll say just a few words.

According to the news media, it’s been likened to Hitler’s prosecution of Jewish people back in the 1940’s. Like everything connected with the mainstream news media, this is rubbish!

Growing up in West Texas, this subject is not news to me nor is it news to the ranchers who live along the borders of Texas and Arizona. Actually this law is virtually a carbon copy of the current Federal law which is not being enforced.

Let’s establish one thing right now. This law is not aimed directly at the immigrants who come to the USA to escape extreme poverty and violence in Mexico. Nope, even though they enter the country illegally, they are not the target of this new Arizona law. The illegals are really in the wrong place at the wrong time. Could they not come in through the front door using the INS legally? Shame on the news media for failure to do right in reporting this truthfully.

This fact is common knowledge among the ranchers who live along the border. What the news media does not report, (why anyone would believe any of the drivel these cretins write is beyond me) is the blatant border terrorism going on now and which has been going on for a long time. Specifically, we are talking about the violent and deadly drug cartels.

When a rancher returns home with his family to find a woman’s severed head on his mail box, that sort of gets his attention. Why has a journalist not reported this? When there is a $250,000 bounty placed on the head of a Border Patrolman by the drug cartel, why has a journalist not reported this?

The answer is simple. It’s not politically correct. Being politically correct is best described as wild eyed lunatics, (see the current crop of elected Liberal Democrats) loudly screeching through foam flecked lips, insisting that it is indeed possible to pick up a turd by the clean end! Real journalists have gone the way of the dodo bird. Dismiss the present news readers and talking heads from anything resembling credibility or reliability. They are useless and can actually be hazardous to your health.

More than forty tunnels have been discovered connecting Nogales, Mexico to Nogales, Arizona. These underground tunnels are structurally very sound, using the latest engineering techniques to reinforce, light, and ventilate the corridors. They come up inside warehouses controlled by the drug cartels and are used to flood the US with illegal drugs. These tunnels are as far as 400 yards inside the USA and are used to dump in many undocumented immigrants along with the drugs to further confuse the issue.

As a direct result of the border violence and terrorism, many ranchers are selling out and moving north. So…who buys their land? You guessed it; one of the drug cartels. In this fashion, they control long stretches of the border and can freely move drugs and people through this private gateway as well. Did I mention that the drugs cartels have lots of money? I should have.

Mexico’s current President, one Felipe Calderon (who could only become a bigger fool if he gained some weight) has proposed a tightening of American gun laws to prevent his criminals from arming themselves! In the extreme, this is wanton bullshit!

Calderon blames the USA’s second amendment for his country’s failure to control his own home grown criminals. Look how successful Mexico's strict gun laws have been in rendering his few remaining honest citizens helpless and defenseless.

Truthfully, I feel he has received guidance in this harebrained idea from some of our own home grown traitors, idiots, and worthless sons of bitches like Senator Charles Schumer, Senator Diane Feinstein, and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.

These despicable and unethical charlatons, along with George Soros of Moveon.org, really want the assault weapons ban reinstated at any cost to us along with even more severe restrictions added! We must be more careful about who we elect.

Calderon conveniently forgets how his country, back in 1858 if my memory of Texas history serves me correctly, President Santa Anna deeded over Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and California to the USA in return for safe passage back to Mexico so he could once again install himself as Mexico’s President.(editor's note: it would be okay with me if we gave California back)

There are three ways to defeat the drug cartels. One way is to shoot on sight everyone who illegally crosses the border, but the problem here is how would the shooter know who were the drug dealers and who were the innocent pawns known as undocumented immigrants?

The second way is to legalize drugs in this country. By selling drugs in liquor stores, the government could remove the profit motive from the sale of illegal drugs. Also the government could collect yet another whopping tax while saving the vast amounts of money currently being wasted on pretend efforts to stop the flow across our borders.

Finally, the criminal element can be arrested, prosecuted and sentenced to long, severe, and miserable terms in tent city prison compounds in the desert. Just because many criminals are breaking the law in no justification to stop the enforcement of these laws.

I personally favor the swift capture and sentencing of the criminals, but in reality none of these solutions are totally practical.

Right now, there are no other viable solutions. Until there is, Arizona and Texas ranchers are left to deal with this problem as best they can. That means some innocent victims from both sides of the border may get collected and this responsibility will rest squarely on the shoulders of the President of the USA. Not to decide…is to decide. Get off the pot, Obama. Time to man up!

Short of contracting with the Israelis for help in controlling our southern borders, I see no long term effective solution.

In the meantime, we must be very grateful for our second amendment and protect it vigorously! It’s all we have that separates us from the rampant violence of third world countries…like Calderon's Mexico.

Vote responsibly. This time; it's for real!
