Mexican-Americans stand up to Jim Crow
April 4, 2008 | Page 9
JUSTIN AKERS CHACÓN tells the hidden history of Mexican-American workers.
"PLACING A premium on interracial and interethnic collaboration as a
central
component of unionization, the CIO [Congress of Industrial Organizations]
served as a center and training ground for activism for thousands of
Mexican-Americans."
So unfolds Zaragosa Vargas' seminal work, Labor Rights Are Civil Rights,
which concludes that the mass strike movement of the New Deal era not only
toppled capital's resistance to industrial unionism but forged a
generation
of Mexican-American working-class fighters whose struggles against racism
laid the basis for the Chicano civil rights movement and the eventual
overthrow of legal segregation.

INVASION FROM THE SOUTH
INVASION FROM THE SOUTH
By
COLONEL DONALD J. MYERS USMC (Ret)
A country of 123 million souls, Mexico, is invading a country of 300
million
souls, the United States, and it is winning. How can this be? The primary
reason is that the invaded country, United States, refuses to defend
itself.
What does Mexico do on its southern border? It protests it and arrests
anyone who dares cross into Mexico. What does the United States do on its
southern border- almost nothing.

Richardson: Mexican border will continue to be fortified
* Apr. 2nd, 2008 at 10:47 AM
After a D.C. breakfast meeting this morning with the Mexican ambassador to
the United States, Gov. Bill Richardson said he's been assured that the
Mexican military won't be backing down from its duties at the U.S.-Mexico
border any time soon.
"Our meeting was productive and I am pleased that the Mexican government's
commitment to help stem the flow of drugs and violence into New Mexico,"
Richardson said in a statement. "I praise the Mexican government for
their
cooperative attitude."
(Am I the only one that is worried about the Mexican Army looking out at
our
6? If you are not braindead this should be of some concern to you. )

Mexican Drug Cartels Based in Guatemala
Guatemala, Apr 1 (Prensa Latina) At least three of the most powerful
Mexican
drug cartels are based in Guatemala, and are disputing territories power
in
that country, according to investigations published there.
Local security apparatus intensified investigations after the bloodshed a
week ago in the eastern department of Zacapa, where 11 people were dead,
several others wounded, and six arrested, including some Mexican citizens.
According to Prensa Libre daily, there is evidence of the presence of the
cartels led by Osiel Cardenas ("Golfo"), Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman
("Sinaloa"), and Juan Jose Esparragoza ("Juarez").
Those groups established contact with Guatemalan gangs to become the
country
a neuralgic point for the transfer of drugs produced in the south of the
continent towards the US market.
(Why are we in Iraq when the actual enemy is at our door step? What
insanity makes us want ot fight 'terrorists' with the army, but Armed dope
runners with police? I say up Iraq and to the Mexican border with the
Army!)

Immigration myths
Illegals do commit a lot of crime-their crime rate is lower than that of
that of black Americans, but higher than that of white Americans.
Relatively
low incarceration rates for first-generation Mexican immigrants, which may
simply represent not getting caught, don't continue into the second
generation, where crime and gang member****p goes way up.

(Adds immigration agency comment)
By Jon Hurdle
PHILADELPHIA, April 3 (Reuters) - U.S. immigration officers violated the
rights of suspected illegal aliens by forcing their way into homes in
pre-dawn raids, a lawsuit filed on Thursday says.
The officers woke suspects in eight New Jersey homes by pounding on doors
between August 2006 and January 2008.
They ordered children out of beds, shouted obscenities and shoved guns
into
people's chests, according to the suit filed in federal court in Newark,
New
Jersey, by Seton Hall Law School's Center for Social Justice and the law
firm Lowenstein Sandler.
(Oh, I am all broken up. Pass me the tissue. *snifle* Maybe if they had
not flaunted our laws and acted as if this land was theirs by right. What
I
think is im****tant here is: HOW MANY OF THEM GOT DE****TED BACK TO MEXICO?
That is the question of the hour. See people here at Illegal Immigration
News with Views we are looking for that de****tation! Oh, Yeah!)

The world's most dangerous gang
By Piers Scholfield
BBC News, Wa****ngton
The suburbs of the US are no longer the same as those immortalised in
1950s
movies, with white families living in big houses and the father driving
off
to work in his Buick, past manicured lawns.
An alleged Mara Salvatrucha gang member in El Salvador
MS-13 gang members are often heavily tattooed
These days, it is more likely that English will not even be the first
language you hear on the streets.
In Langley Park, Maryland, the kiosks sell Spanish-language newspapers;
the
supermarket shelves are stocked with tortillas and assorted black beans.
Mexican music plays in the background while the tannoy blares out
announcements in Spanish.
Outside, groups of men hang out on the street corners and their Spanish is
accented - Nicaraguan, Honduran and, most often, Salvadoran.
They wait, hoping to be picked up for a day's labouring in the houses and
gardens of Wa****ngton DC's middle class.
But among the hard-working families lurks a darker shadow.
Violent crime
Vicious street gangs, committed to violence, have spread throughout the
Americas and are now a significant threat in the US.
We visited Maria Hernandez in her apartment in Langley Park.
She welcomed us through her battered front door, which had been smashed by
police in a dawn raid.
San Salvador, the capital of El Salvador
The groups spread to Central American states after being born in the US
They were looking for evidence connecting her son, Marvin, to an assault,
where a man suffered brain damage after being hit on the head with a
baseball bat.
Maria told us that Marvin had joined a gang after being picked on at
school.
The police search warrant said Marvin was a member of MS-13.
MS-13 - or Mara Salvatrucha - is the biggest and fastest-growing of the
Latin American street gangs.
In Maryland alone, MS-13 members are accused of being responsible for a
long
series of violent crimes including murder.
Favoured tactics include decapitation by machete.
MS-13 started life as a group of young immigrants on the streets of
California in the 1980s.
After nearly a million Salvadorans fled their civil war for the US, many
of
them settled in Los Angeles where gang violence was rife.
In the 1990s, the "maras" spread to Central America after many of their
leaders were de****ted from the United States.
Kill and control
Those countries, struggling to get back on their feet after years of
devastating civil conflict, were a perfect setting in which gangs could
proliferate.
There's evidence that the model of the gang is rape, kill, control.
They're
really about gaining control over other immigrants from their community
Rod
J Rosenstein, US attorney for Maryland Today, some estimates put up to
60,000 maras active in El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico and -
according to the FBI - in more than 40 US states.
Rod J Rosenstein is Maryland's US Attorney.
His office is currently prosecuting a series of cases against MS-13. He
told
us the gang's motives are more about mayhem than money.
"There's evidence that the model of the gang is rape, kill, control," he
said.
"They're really about gaining control over other immigrants from their
community, intimidating people and asserting some degree of threat which
enables them to control their neighbourhoods."
Rosenstein's prosecutors have moved on from charging individual gang
members
with discrete crimes.
Instead, they are now targeting MS-13 with federal racketeering laws - the
same legislation used against the Mafia and other organised crime.
For this tactic to be successful, they must prove that MS-13 is indeed an
organised network.
We attended court in Greenbelt, Maryland.
The prosecutors spent much of their time talking about gang meetings;
about
the clothes - blue and white for MS-13 - and the tattoos.
And, most damningly, an alleged firm link between gang leaders in El
Salvador and their proteges in the US.
Murder by mobile
In June 2007, the then US Attorney-General, Alberto Gonzales held a press
conference to announce charges against MS-13 leaders in El Salvador.
A police patrol in San Salvador
Police seem unable to crack the strength of the gangs
The indictment alleged that Saul Antonios Turcos Angel communicated with
members of the "Teclas Locos Salvatruchos" clique in Maryland via mobile
phone and ordered them to commit two murders.
Later that day gang members in Maryland killed two people and wounded a
juvenile.
The links between the countries are clear.
The court in Greenbelt was shown a home video made by the gang in a
Salvadoran prison.
In it, maras send greetings to their "homies" in Maryland and other parts
of
the US.
They talk of killing and controlling others and display their full-body
tattoos in a show of allegiance to MS-13.
Mindful of these trans-national links, the FBI last year made the decision
to open an office in El Salvador.
Aaron Escorza heads the FBI's National Gang Task Force. He told us the
gangs
move freely around the region.
"They don't recognise borders. They commit crimes in El Salvador, flee El
Salvador to come to the US and you have MS-ers who are committing crimes
in
the US and fleeing down to El Salvador to evade arrest."
Hard fist
But once in El Salvador, the challenge to authorities is immense.
Entire swathes of the capital are virtually under the control of MS-13 and
its rival, Mara 18.
Local police patrol warily, tending when possible to avoid those parts of
the city.
The region's homicide rates are among the highest in the world - 58 per
100,000 of population in El Salvador.
The past decade has seen politicians rise to power on the back of promises
to declare war against the gangs.
The "Mano Dura" - or Hard Fist - policy introduced by Honduras at the
start
of the decade was closely followed by "Super Mano Dura" in El Salvador.
The legislation meant police could round up gang members at will, throwing
young men in prison for any suspicious behaviour, including associating
with
likely gang members or s****ting tattoos.
The result was thousands of gang members in prison.
But courts were not able to process such numbers and many lingered in
prison
without charge.
The prisons themselves have become strongholds of the gangs, many of them
controlled by the Maras themselves, the authorities guard only from the
outside.
The "Mano Dura" policies are now largely discredited.
On patrol in San Salvador, the police told us the laws had been
counter-productive, driving the gangs underground and leading to more
clever
tactics from the likes of MS-13.
They pointed out men who could be Maras, but who now wear long t-****rts to
cover their tattoos.
The graffiti that used to be ubiquitous, identifying each gang's
territory,
is no longer so obvious.
Mano Dura made the prisons into virtual headquarters for the gangs.
And the US de****tation policy added to the problem, with the result that
the
gangs have become ever more organised and powerful.
Revolving door
Jose Miguel Cruz, of the University of Central America, who has studied
the
Maras for over a decade, says these approaches have led to a "revolving
door" effect.
"MS-13 has spread across the US and is a major security problem in Central
America. We haven't tried any more preventative measures."
He draws a comparison with Nicaragua. "They also are poor, they also have
weak institutions."
If we can lock them away we will but if we can't, they should be de****ted
Julie Myers, US assistant secretary of state for homeland security
But Nicaragua has so far managed to avoid any large-scale gang problem.
Why?
"The police concentrate on more preventative measures," says Mr Cruz.
Former gang member Edgar Ramirez backed this up.
When he arrived back from the US, de****ted after a three-year prison
sentence, he said there were no op****tunities, no way back into normal
society.
"I had tattoos so everyone treated me like a criminal," he tells us.
"And if you speak English, they know you're a de****tee."
For now, US policy remains focused on law-enforcement.
The US Assistant Secretary of State for Homeland Security, Julie Myers,
says
it must remain the priority.
"If we can lock them away we will, but if we can't, they should be
de****ted," she told us.
"We have to think about stopping young people going into gangs; but I
believe the American public is safer when we remove these individuals from
the streets of our communities and de****t them wherever possible."
In the 1980s, when Ronald Reagan was fighting a proxy war against the
Soviet
Union in Central America, he promised to rebuild a new, better, El
Salvador.
But after spending so much on the war, there was little appetite in
Wa****ngton for the reconstruction project.
Two decades later, the US is reaping the consequences. And in Central
America, a region still struggling with poverty and crime, MS-13 has
thrived.
Law enforcement alone does not seem to be enough to contain it.
