Paris, France. Terrorism.
The kind of terrorism which, once again, reaches across the Atlantic, to make its mark on the scarred psyche of America.
Have our scars made us afraid to confront the truth? At this time in our history, hidden carefully within the benign immigrant hordes, are rotten apples. Trained, funded and masters of the surprise attack, revelers in blood and carrion. When will we in America take immigration enforcement seriously? The key to immigration law enforcement is not a matter of numbers so much as a matter of whom.
Rail as much as you like against Donald Trump’s hard-line stance: if you don’t have enforceable borders, you don’t have a country. Many Americans, liberal Democrats and their media minions, paint Trump’s stance as an affront to Mexicans, or perhaps Hispanic peoples in general. That’s a narrow-minded, ideological view. Looked at in a broad context, almost half the illegal immigration to the United States consists of non-Hispanic people from other parts of the world. Many come with visas of various types, by sea and by air from all over the world. When their visas expire, they choose to break the law; they do not leave. Safe to assume they never intended to honor our, or their own nation’s visa laws. They lied every step of the way.
We may have their names in computerized lists, but this doesn’t really tell us anything about who they are – and sadly – where they are. They may have given “student” or other benign-sounding reasons for entering the U.S. Now we have “refugees.” Once here, the rotten apples are like I.E.D.s – Improvised Explosive Devices – set to go off when we least expect it. The lax immigration enforcement policies of our current administration virtually insures they will go off. Does anyone remember the seemingly benign fellows from the Middle East who were here “legally?” Who learned to fly planes here, legally? Who then purchased airline tickets legally? Then flew the planes into the World Trade Towers.
The carnage in Paris ought to be enough to get even President Obama to define the problem: but he won’t. They can be from anywhere. Though not Mexican, many sneak across our southern border. Which is why we need Trump’s wall, and the enforcement policies to go with it. Not because we hate Mexicans, or Hispanics, or Arabs, or Asians, or anyone. But because we hate to see innocent people maimed and killed. We need to identify and stop those with evil intent from creating Paris-like chaos on the streets of our country. Our president’s reaction; release three more Gitmo jihadis.
Additionally, we have to acknowledge that among the millions of so-called “illegals” already within the U.S. – who have come here from many nations – a certain percent of jihadis hide among the innocents. A good number have long criminal records, some belonging to underground gangs and hidden terrorist cells spread throughout the U.S. It’s not like we don’t know how and where they get together after they are settled here.
Immigrants come to the U.S. for many different reasons. Some of them come just for the benefits, with no intention of becoming one of the Left’s vaunted “hard-working immigrants.” California is among the most charitable States when it comes to immigrants imported by Obama’s administration. And where do these “poor” people gravitate to? San Diego. Ranking among the top three or four of America’s most expensive cities to live in! “The chosen” get free apartments, furnished, large-screen tv’s, and an opportunity for employment. If they are unable or unwilling to find work (theory is they will repay our charity by paying their taxes – have you stopped laughing or crying yet?) If unable to find work – these immigrants have been schooled by the Democratic machine – they know how to work the system to qualify for free benefits from dozens of government agencies. Theoretically, they can weasel as much as $650,000 over the years! Cost to the tax-payers? Many billions of dollars annually. No one in government seems to care.
So, please forgive me if I show little sympathy for this relatively new class of immigrant. Our forbears came here from other countries. None of this assistance was available to them back in the day. I do not recall that they set out to bilk America for every penny they can, demanding the American taxpayer give them every possible creature comfort. Demanding! But to the Democratic Party, the cost doesn’t enter into the equation. All that matters is creating another class of “paid” Democratic voters, perpetually dependent upon them, in their thrall... a bondage of the soul.
President Obama and the Liberal Democratic machine do not care if they are importing the rotten apples embedded in this new class of immigrants. Collateral damage. They are actually more like “invitees.” If the rest of us do not go along with them, we are labeled racists or xenophobes, or just plain haters. But the rotten deeds of the rotten apples are arousing the ire of Americans toward immigration in general.
If you are one of those hold-outs who do not believe even now that Obama’s motives are less beneficent than they are to create chaos in America; if you still don’t see how he is doing everything he can, winking at his core, to bring it about – Ferguson, Baltimore, Chicago, Oakland, et al., and how this new class of refugees is an I.E.D. – an Improvised Explosive Device – just like in Paris, London and many European Cities – I have to wonder how much more it will take to make you see the obvious.
This is why Donald Trump remains high in the polls. If Democrats don’t care how treacherous, how terribly dangerous their immigration policies are, why in hell should Republicans give a damn if Trump’s language and hard stance on immigration offends anyone? The man wants to build his wall, to rebuild our military, to protect our nation!
