The right kind of immigration raid
Law enforcement and immigrant advocates are working together to make for
kinder crackdowns.
April 3, 2008
Before U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement took 144 men and women
into
custody at Micro Solutions Enterprises in Van Nuys a few weeks ago, the
agency sent advance notice to civil rights groups. It put social service
agencies on standby in case children whose parents were detained needed
help. Once the suspected illegal immigrants were identified, ICE agents
asked if they had chronic health conditions, child-care issues or other
urgent personal situations. Those who did were released and given an order
to appear in court at a later date. Lastly, ICE handed out a list of
attorneys who would take cases pro bono.

States think smaller, slower on immigration
By Daniel C. Vock, Stateline.org Staff Writer
The headlong rush of states into immigration policy may be slowing. In
legislative sessions this spring, ambitious proposals in state capitols
have
been watered down, delayed or outright defeated.
State legislators, many frustrated with federal inaction on immigration
issues, continue to dive into the debate over whether undocumented
immigrants are entitled to driver's licenses, in-state tuition at state
universities, public benefits and business licenses.
But this year, their actions have been measured or curtailed by their
governors or special interest groups, especially compared to recent years,
when state lawmakers presented a flurry of new ideas and passed an
unprecedented number of immigration-related laws.
In Indiana, Kentucky and Nebraska, get-tough proposals died in key
committees. Ideas on the table included measures to shutter businesses
that
hired undocumented immigrants, enlist state police in federal immigration
enforcement efforts and cut off public benefits to illegal immigrants.

Senate endorses crackdown on illegal immigrants
By Virginia Young
POST-DISPATCH JEFFERSON CITY BUREAU CHIEF
04/02/2008
JEFFERSON CITY - Immigration legislation, a top priority for Gov. Matt
Blunt
and Republican legislative leaders, moved off dead center Tuesday when the
Senate unexpectedly endorsed a wide-ranging crackdown.
The plan would strip business licenses and state contracts from employers
who knowingly hire undocumented workers. However, employers could escape
penalties if they used a federal database to verify workers' residency.
Illegal immigrants would be ineligible for most state and local services,
including grants, loans, welfare, disability, housing and food assistance.
They could not get drivers licenses and could be denied bail when jailed.

Illegal immigration problem not fixed
April 3rd, 2008
The illegal immigration problem hasn't been solved. The borders remain
open
because the administration doesn't want to close them. Open borders go
hand
in hand with plans for a North American Union. Closing them is
inconsistent
with "integrating" Canada, Mexico and the United States.
Americans were rightly angered early in 2006 when hundreds of thousands of
demonstrators, many obviously here illegally, clogged streets of major
cities, waved Mexican flags, demanded favors from government, and trashed
the Stars and Stripes

11 Violent Gang Members Locked Away
Trial For 3 More Set For Trial In August
Re****ted By Dennis Ferrier
out in Nashville.
members of a gang whose motto is "Kill, Rape, Control" have been convicted
while three more await trial.
The people were members of the dangerous MS-13 gang, and the people who
know
gangs best said there is really nothing like them.
"MS-13 works on fear. They're not your typical gang that sells drugs on
the
street corner or does anything like that. They don't work like that. Their
whole thing is fear and taking over an area. And they live daily to fight
the enemy, and their enemy was any Hispanic in Nashville," said Gary
Kemper
of Metro's Gang Suppression Unit.

Staff re****ts
Another member of the notorious MS-13 gang was given a lengthy sentence to
prison in federal court.
In a Monday hearing, U.S. District Judge Todd Campbell sentenced Walter
Hernandez, a.k.a. Spanky, to 27 years in prison for his role in a
widespread
racketeering enterprise with legs in both Nashville and Baltimore.
Hernandez admitted in open court last week to being involved in
racketeering
in the Nashville area as well as the fatal shooting of a rival Brown Pride
gang member in 2006.

Our Government: Aiding And Abetting Illegal Aliens
By: Chris Freind, The Bulletin
04/02/2008
The following is the mission statement of the Philadelphia Prison System:
"To provide a secure correctional environment that adequately detains
persons accused or convicted of illegal acts; to provide programs,
services
and supervision in a safe, lawful, clean and humane environment, and to
prepare incarcerated persons for re-entry into society."
Unfathomably, the last part of that policy makes no distinction between
American citizens and illegal aliens. Both are released back into our
society, courtesy of the incompetent United States government.
It's good to be an illegal immigrant in America!
Try following this "logic": an illegal alien gets convicted of a crime,
serves his sentence, and is then handed over to the Immigration service.
More often than not, instead of being de****ted, the ILLEGAL alien (the key
word being "illegal") is actually released back on the American streets.
Why? Because many countries don't want their own convicts repatriated, so
they deny or delay the process of de****tation. Since the Supreme Court
generally limits the detention of these aliens to 180 days, they go free.
Several small points come to mind:
1. Why are any countries dictating to us what we can and can't do with
their
citizens who are in this country illegally?
2. Since undocumented criminal aliens are rearrested an average of eight
times (and we're not talking about stealing a candy bar; most offenses are
robbery, assault, murder, drugs and ***ual crimes), has it dawned on our
political leaders that their inaction places every American in grave
danger?
3. Perhaps most ironic, by instituting such a policy, our government is,
in
fact, committing a crime every time it releases an illegal alien. Aiding
and
abetting illegals is unquestionably against the law, and by definition,
setting them free inside America qualifies as both.
A 2006 Department of Homeland Security Inspector General Re****t estimated
that most of the 302,000 de****table criminals admitted into state and
local
facilities in 2007 would be released rather than removed at the end of
their
sentence. Given the there are estimated to be between 300,000 and 450,000
illegal aliens in federal, state and local jails already, and that the
taxpayer cost to house these people is staggering, those with minor
offenses
should have the charges dropped and immediately de****ted to their country
of
origin. But how do we do this if the other countries are not cooperative?
By
refusing to roll over to the whims of other nations. It's time to play
hardball.
Playing Hardball: De****tation Legislation
Sen. Arlen Specter has taken the lead on this issue by introducing a bill
which would deny foreign aid and suspend visa issuances to countries which
delay or refuse to repatriate. This common sense legislation should be
passed swiftly by both houses and signed into law for the immediate
benefits
it will produce.
In addition to making the streets safer by de****ting illegals (who broke
the
law to get here in the first place), the bill would make a significant
dent
in our prison overcrowding problem (the Philadelphia prison system houses
8,700 inmates, even though it was only designed for 6,200). Too many
criminals are having their sentences reduced or suspended altogether
because
there is simply not enough capacity within our correctional facilities,
placing our law-abiding citizens in jeopardy yet again. It also sends the
message that crime does pay since the odds of serving a full sentence are
remote.
There will also be a huge savings to taxpayers. Since the daily cost to
house prisoners is very expensive (the Philadelphia Prison System cost is
$91/day), it doesn't take a math genius to figure out how much will be
saved
by jettisoning the illegal alien deadweight. The numbers speak for
themselves.
It is time America starts taking care of itself first, placing its
citizens
ahead of illegal invaders. Our economic future, our physical security, and
continued respect for the rule of law depend on it. For theses reasons,
prompt passage of the Specter legislation is a necessity.
