Before you go calling me Cindy and think I’ve gone all Code Pink, I am not talking about Iraq. In fact, things are going so well there that Barack “surge, what surge” Obama says our troops may be out in sixteen months. U.S. Soldier deaths are at their lowest levels and, excluding a rash of recent bombings, so are civilian deaths. It might be time to switch the timeshare from Bagdad Beach in Mexico to the Tigris River outside of Bagdad. For you see, the war we are losing is being fought along the border between the United States and our labor supplying neighbor to the south: Mexico.
In 2007, 891 of the bravest men and women I will never get the chance to thank gave their lives in Iraq. The final toll for 2008 may well be half that number. A single city in northern Mexico, Ciudad Juarez, has had 1400 murders this year alone. Gangland style attacks have left over 4,500 dead across the country since the ball dropped in Times Square and we began breaking our New Year’s resolutions. There have been over 700 killings since we in the United States solved all our problems by electing the One.
While bleeding hearts spent Thanksgiving complaining about Sarah Palin holding a press conference while the turkeys they were eating were decapitated, the turkeys in the pres
s were pretty much ignoring the decapitation of nine people near Tijuana.It seems drug thugs are taking a page from their cowardly cousins in the terrorist community and are using beheadings to send messages and instill fear. They also aren’t opposed to using violence against women and children. The same weekend that the beheadings took place in Tijuana, 28 additional people were killed in the same area by these animals including four children and three police officers who had their badges stuffed in their mouths.
Fortunately we have a solid, impenetrable border keeping any of this violence, or the perpetu
ators of such, safely at bay and away from our citizens as they drive past illegal immigrants doing the jobs we won’t on their way to the jobs we will. Right, just ask the cook at your corner Taco stand how true that is.These drug cartels and the gangs they spawn are more organized than your local A
CORN office and are even less noticeable. Many of this notorious, extremely violent and usually butt-ugly slime maintain club house membership in Mara Salvatrucha 13 (MS-13), a transnational gang that has recorded activity in 48 states, Washington, DC and Puerto Rico. These little rascals are not our gang of old and it isn’t Buckwheat or Alfalfa they are pushing.Interestingly, according to the Center for Immigration Studies, immigrant gang members rarely make a living as gangsters. They typically work by day in construction, auto repair, farming, landscaping, and other low-skill occupations where employers are less vigilant checking status, often using false documents. You know those jobs Americans won’t do. But at night their activities often turn violent. Violence is expected of members and those who refuse to join in the fun are brought to a court to be judged by their peers. The collective brain matter of these groups, which probably wouldn’t fill one of their readily available coke spoons, sends down sentences for 13, 26 or 36 (I guess they couldn’t quite grasp 3x13) second beatings with bats, machetes or guns. Sounds like a fun Friday night doesn’t it?
If these “examples for why the death penalty needs to be used often” would only kill each other I’d gladly wish them good luck and much success in that effort. But all too often innocents are caught in the crossfire and their recruitment efforts spread their disease to the playgrounds and parks where children deserve to spend their childhoods free from this crap.
And their numbers continue to grow. Nearly half of over 6000 illegal aliens arrested over a two and a half year period were affiliated with MS-13 or Surenos-13. The same study found some jurisdictions with serious gang problems had few arrests. Of course many these same cities are so-called sanctuary cities with “don’t ask, don’t tell” policies regarding immigration status. How’s that for a one-two punch?
So what do we do? Beats me, I just shine light on these Cockroaches. The citizens of both the United States and Mexico deserve better. The United States is trying to work with Mexican officials and we are sending around $200 million to them. I guess the leeches that came to Washington to beg for bailouts dropped a few million on their way out of town. Unfortunately in Mexico the police are as big a problem. A recent review found that 49.4% of the 55,000 officers evaluated were “untrustworthy”. Mexican President Felipe Calderon’s anti-drug czar and several top police officers were arrested for allegedly being on the drug cartels' payroll to the tune of $150,000-$450,000 per month. I’m thinking we might be on our own in this one.
We are at war. In a claimed effort to combat terrorism and in a direct assault on the Posse Comitatus Act, the Pentagon is considering deploying 20,000 uniformed troops within the United States by 2011. I’ve a few ideas. Let’s let United States citizens keep their guns to protect themselves. Let’s allow cops to inquire as to the legal status of people they arrest and let’s send this slime packing to whatever country they are sending their paychecks home to or to an 8x8 room with a cot and a big friendly roommate who thinks they are cute. Finally, let’s put the focus of 20,000 of the bravest and finest trained weapons of mass destruction on earth directly on our southern border with rules of engagement that will enable them to demonstrate to these chicken shit gang members what true bravado and justice is all about.
