More Americans killed by illegal aliens than Iraq war
National Border Patrol Council
January 22,2007
Illegal aliens are killing more Americans than the Iraq war, says a new report from Family Security Matters that estimates some 2,158 murders are committed every year by illegal aliens in the U.S. The group says that number is more than 15 percent of all the murders reported by the Federal Bureau of Investigation in the U.S. and about three times the representation of illegal aliens in the general population.
Mike Cutler, a former senior special agent with the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (the former INS), is a fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies and an advisor to Family Security Matters (FSM). He says the high number of Americans being killed by illegal aliens is just part of the collateral damage that comes with tolerating illegal immigration.
“The military actually called for the BORTAC team, … the elite unit of the Border Patrol, to be detailed to Iraq to help to secure the Iraqi border,” Cutler notes. “Now, if our military can understand that Iraq’s security depends in measure on the ability to protect its border against insurgents and terrorists, then why isn’t our country similarly protecting our own borders ?” he asks.
“We are not five and a half years, nearly, after 9/11, and yet our borders remain open,” the Center for Immigration Studies fellow observes. “We have National Guardsmen assigned on the border, but it turns out they are unarmed,” he points out. “Their rules of engagement are very simple : if armed intruders head your way, run in the other direction.”
This situation would “almost be comical if it wasn’t so tragic:
” Cutler asserts. “If our borders are wide open, this means that drugs, criminals, and terrorists are entering our country just as easily as the dishwashers,” he says.
The report from FSM estimates that the 267,000 illegal aliens currently incarcerated in the nation are responsible for nearly 1,300,000 crimes, ranging from drug arrests to rape and murder. Such statistics, Cutler contends, debunk the claim that illegal immigration is a victimless crime.
“Then we even have another problem,” he adds, “and that’s the Visa Waiver Program.”
The federal government’s Visa Waiver Program enables nationals of certain countries to travel to the United States for tourism or business for stays of 90 days or less without obtaining a visa. According to the U.S. State Department website, the waiver program was established in 1986 with the objective of “eliminating unnecessary barriers to travel,” stimulating America’s tourism industry, and allowing the government to focus consular resources in other areas.
Cutler says the U.S. retains the Visa Waiver Program because the nation’s travel, tourism, and hospitality industries want America’s borders wide open. In other words, the former INS official contends, the nation’s security is being compromised in the name of trade.
Arms seized at U.S. - Mexican border town
( NIN) On February 11, 2007, a tractor-trailer registered in Texas and containing a large shipment of weapons, ammunition and a Nissan pickup truck fitted with armor and bullet-proof glass was stopped by the Mexican army in Matamoros, just south of the U.S. border at Brownsville, Texas.
The weapons seized included 18 M-16 assault rifles, including at least one equipped with an M-203 40mm grenade launcher, several M-4 carbines, 17 handguns of various calibers, over 200 magazines for different weapons, and more than 8,000 rounds of ammunition, assault vests and other military accessories.
Wild Thing's comment.......
Imagine a scene of a man sitting in his living room, his family that he loves sleeping in their specific bedrooms. The man is sitting there, alone and well armed to protect his precious family. There is a large front door, a side door and a back door. Not only are these doors unlocked but they are wide open for easy entrance for anyone wanting in.
And there are some dogs that are also family members as pets always are. But instead of being free to defend the home and their loving family they live with, these dogs are tied up outside, preventing them from any guard duty, any form of protection. They have muzzles on as well to keep them from barking (alerting) the man sitting in the house.
Some time ago, an additional two dogs he had were put in the pound because they tore into one of the invaders that meant harm and danger for this American family. The invader, well he was paid a vast amount of money, not even a slap on the wrist, and those in authority in this families city made this invader, this criminal a reward as an American visitor with special treatment showing thanks for entering illegally and bringing his criminal business into a once safe place.
Is the family man sitting in his living room with the gun wasting his time trying to protect his family? Will this man one day find himself in a human pound, a jail if he attempts to fight back and do what any loving and caring head of a family would do to protect his own? And how many more of the guard dogs will be sent to the pound for doing their job?
This is a Chrissie version of what has been happening. The two guard dogs are the two border patrol agents that have been sentenced and jailed for doing their job. The doors to our country are still wide open and the criminal, the illegal immigrant drug pusher, POS walks free with a financial apology from our country.
What was up is down and what was down is up, the world, as we know it is on some kind of spiral into hell and misery if this kind of thing is not fixed. It won’t just be the Border Patrol Agents that will find themselves jailed for doing their jobs, it will also be home owners, land owners, renters, heads of families, fathers, mothers and young people that attempt to protect themselves and their loved ones.
Sounds negative doesn’t it?! But wait… we have already seen this happen and who would have dreamed it in their worst nightmare that these agents would be jailed and the illegal immigrant been treated as he was treated. I have a tremendous imagination, it helps in being creative with art etc. but it’s certainly doesn’t take an imagination to see that this will happen and the tables will continue to turn against those of us that are here legally, those of us that intend on defending our lives, our homes, our loved ones, and yes our country!
Our troops are busting their butts every day for us, risking their lives, for our security and to keep us as safe as possible. Our Border Patrol Agents, our police etc. too and this is the thanks they all get!
Consistency is important in leadership, it adds strength in it’s own right. Leaders cannot lead if they are wishie washie, if they double speak, if they are NOT consistent. There can’t be an axis of evil list and exceptions for countries made just because of oil or any other kind of trade. Evil is evil and one can’t put flowers on it to make it less evil. This country is set apart because we have the rule of law. When exceptions are made for our laws a sick virus begins to grow that spreads from one law to another and soon laws will mean nothing even to those that once obeyed them. When our leaders ignore existing laws and constantly try to rewrite them to promote their political agenda, or gain favor with the enemy wanting to erode our Nation it will crumble like a building imploding from the inside out.
I am very concerned about my country, I love her dearly with all my heart. I won’t ever give up but I am disgusted. For me I will never vote for anyone that I do not think will see America as I do, that it needs to be protected from the inside as well as in far off lands from those wanting to do harm to us, and to our Nation. I am a Conservative, NOT a compassionate conservative.
At the top of my blog just below the large graphic, is my statement, it has been there since the day I began this blog, and I will always feel this way.
I am an American first, a Conservative second and a Republican third.
I have voted Republican all my voting age life. So has my family except for some of my husband’s relatives. I pray every day we will have a Conservative to vote for when the time comes. I am VERY impressed with Vietnam Veteran,173rd Airborne Brigade and the 75th Army Ranger Duncan Hunter. And I am also concerned for the way I see Rudy being pushed and yakked up in the media, pushed in our faces as though we HAVE to pick him. Duncan Hunter on the Issues. Hunter is the real deal. And this this important to me too, his father was a Marine and so is one of Duncan's two sons, his name is Duncan also and he has served two tours in Iraq in the U.S. Marine Corps.
I wasn't gonig to state yet the name of the person I have been reading up on, since it is still so very early, but the more I read about Hunter the more I am filled with hope.
This next election will be drawing the line in this country as to what the future will be on many levels. God help us all if a vote is made for the lesser of two evils, because that is still a vote for evil. That is still a vote for the enemy within, just a slower walk to the guillotine.

From where these weapons have arrived?

Well Chrissie, we've been preaching to the choir now for a long time. I feel the same way, I like Duncan Hunter. Tom Tancredo has been railing against the illegals too. But I'm sick of having the choice between the lesser of the two evils. Having to reach into a rotten barrel of apples to select one that isn't completely spoiled sickens me. All we have to do is look at what they are doing in wartime, they support the enemy, they tip them off to our every move, they subvert the president's authority at every opportunity and collaborate directly with the enemy to curry favor amongst the gutless voters. Having a president who has to be dragged clawing and fighting to the border issue only emboldens them, he is telegraphing the signal that the United States is their sanctuary. Just like the Iraq war, they know that all they have to do is wait, and our cut and run polititians will give it all to them. I haven't left the Republican party, it has abandoned me, the RNC isn't about to support a true conservative, that was proven in Pennsylvania and Connecticut and in my personal correspondence with them.

Chrissie, you speak my thunder. I cannot improve on what you have said.
I have voted for Bushs four times for president and twice for Texas governor, and each time it has been the lesser of two evils votes. Jack has listed the two people I would vote for at this time, plus throw in John Bolton. I think the RNC and the MSM are going to do their best to leave us with one of the heavyweight non Conservatives like McCain or Rudy.
By the time the elections get here we could have another 5-6 million immigrants, legal and non-legal. Mostly non-assimilating Third(turd)Worlders.
And if we get a totally Democrap sweep in '08, or another less than Conservative President? Then I think the Third(turd)World war on America is lost.

When you see foreign invaders armed like that, it can only make you thank God for this:
Amendment II
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

And there is no one on the horizon who will do anything to stop this. Looks like it will be up to an armed populace to solve it.

It's a sad, sad day that we have to dishonor those who were truly born here and those who's ancestors were sent here to die as prisoners of the English rule. They survived and worked hard to make this an American Nation and these liberal weiners want to give it away to every Juan, Pedro and Pasquale who comes across the border? Just because they can't afford to pay to come here legally?
And now with all the ammo coming across the border and strange diseases, how long can we last?
We ARE the militia. Doesn't anyone remember that?

Jack....haven't left the Republican party, it has abandoned me"exactly how I feel.

Tom, I agree those three sound good to me.

Bob, thank you for posting that.

razOr, yes it seems so, and that scares me a lot.

Lynn, great comment, thank you. Your right, doesn't anyone remember that, so few do.
