The Border Wall

Those who doubt the necessity of building a wall on our southern border should reconsider after realizing these startling facts — immigration-related felony cases are swamping federal courts along the southwest border.

Judges in the five, mostly rural judicial districts on the border, have the heaviest felony caseloads in the nation. Defendants have not been charged with illegally crossing the border, but are accused of felonies committed on American land.

According to The Associated Press, each judge in New Mexico, which ranked first in caseloads, handled an average of 397 felony cases last year, compared with the national average of 84. The federal judges in the five districts handled one-third of all the felonies prosecuted in the nation’s 94 federal judicial districts last year.

Judges say they are stretched to the limit. Additional federal judges are needed to handle the workload.

Needless to say, allowing thousands of foreign criminals into a nation is not a good policy. There are enough homegrown criminals in the United States. The nation doesn’t need to import murderers, rapists or armed assailants from other cultures.

The best solution is, of course, to keep the illegal criminal aliens on their own side of the border. Some critics say the way to stop illegal immigration is to crack down on employers who hire the immigrants. That may be one needed part of immigration reform, but the thousands of defendants lined up before federal judges in border states did not come here to work in chicken plants. They came to prey on innocents, and to rob, steal and kill.

A secure border wall may not be the only element in an immigration reform policy, but it is a needed one.

But, but, but, that can’t be. They’re just coming over here to do the jobs American’s won’t do, right????

Illegal aliens linked to gang-rape wave

December 2002 – In New York, several criminal aliens, who had passed in and out of Rikers and other jails without being detected by immigration officials, brutally beat and gang-raped a Queens mother of two near Shea Stadium. Three of the five rapists were illegal Mexican aliens with multiple prior arrests for crimes including assault, weapon possession and armed robbery.

January 2004 – Four illegal aliens were among the five men who brutally gang-raped a New York City woman. "They punched me so hard that I was knocked to the floor," the 43-year-old victim wrote before Supreme Court Justice Randall Eng sentenced one of her attackers, Victor Cruz, to 21 years in prison. Cruz, Luis Carmona, Carlos Rodriguez, Armando Juvenal and José Hernandez pleaded guilty in December to rape and kidnapping charges in exchange for sentences of 20 to 23 years.

October 2004 – a 37-year-old North Carolina woman was gang raped by at least seven illegal aliens in Huntersville, N.C.

Oct. 4, 2005 – In Immokalee, Fla., 14 field laborers, ranging in age from 18 to 56, broke into an 18-year-old woman's home, dragged her across the street and then took turns raping her. The victim said the men choked and hit her until she became unconscious. When she awoke, a man poured alcohol in her mouth. The men removed her clothing and each one raped her.

June 28, 2006 – Texas' Waco Tribune Herald reported illegal immigrants Javier Guzman Martinez, 18, and Noel Darwin Hernandez, 22, have been charged with one count of aggravated kidnapping and one count of aggravated sexual assault of an 18-year-old Tehuacana woman. The girl had been cut with a piece of glass or "other unknown object."

July 10 – In Sayre, Pa., the Evening Times reported "Gasper Almilcar Guzman" was among a group of men who were found July 10 to be in this country illegally following a routine traffic stop in Athens Township. Guzman had been convicted of raping a 14-year-old girl in Alabama in 2005. Guzman was deported before he could begin serving his five-year sentence.

July 13 -- In Noblesville, Ind., an illegal alien named Miguel Gutierrez, 20, faces two counts of rape for taking a 14-year-old into a garage and participating in a four-man gang rape on the girl. Following the gang rape, the girl was forced into a car and raped again, according to news reports.

July 17 – In Greenville, N.C., Fernando Cruz, 41, Walter Ramires, 26, Luis Morales, 24, and Pedro Vasques, 27, were charged with first-degree rape and first-degree kidnapping of a woman. They drove the woman to a field path on the edge of town and took turns raping her.

July 21 – Sinoe Salgado Garcia, a 28-year-old Fontana, Calif., man convicted of kidnapping and raping a 4-year-old girl, was sentenced to a 30-year-to-life prison term, according to the Riverside Press Enterprise. The child was found hours later inside a shed, thrown over a 6-foot-tall block wall, investigators said. She underwent surgery to repair damage caused by the rape and sodomy, court records show. The site reported that she also suffered three facial fractures.

Aug. 3 – Two young illegal aliens living in Charlotte, N.C., were charged with gang raping an Asheville teenager at the Red Roof Inn. They are 22-year-old Pablo Vasquez Osorio and 23-year-old Marcos Guerrero Fuentes. Both were charged with first-degree rape and kidnapping of a 17-year-old Asheville girl at a Red Roof Inn.

Hate to disagree. If lives of American soldiers take second place to political infighting, why do you think Washington will care about Judge Roy Bean out in the hinterland?

The ONLY answer is MILITARIZATION of the border. Fences, barbed wire, land mines, machine guns and the willingess to shoot to kill anyone in No Man’s Land.

20 years ago, this might not have been necessary. Today it’s gotten so far out of hand that nothing less will do.

Illegals rob, rape and murder Americans. As if that’s not bad enough in itself, then we have to pay to house them in prison for years and years. I’m so sick of elPresidente Booosh and his global agenda. He’s destroying America for the greedy corporations. It wouldn’t surprise me to learn that he and the other amnesty seekers have been given huge numbers of shares in these big corporations as payment for them passing amnesty. There HAS to be some motivation for them to destroy the greatest country in the world.

The same morons that decry the “Border Wall” are living in homes with fences around their back yards. Why? Hmmmm!

Nobody can figure Bush out. He is wrecking America.

[Carry_Okie]

But, but, but, the easiest way to cow a defenseless American public is to sell protection from these imported criminals.

A fence would screw up the marketing plan.

Fred Thompson: “Illegals must have aspirations for citizenship”.

Would you please provide full context and source for that quote?

That's for sure. Half the time I don't think he knows what he's doing, but you're right. He is wrecking America. Short of overthrowing the government the traitors in Congress and the White House are going to pass amnesty!

All of this hassle, just put a bounty on ‘em. Lets say $50.00 a head.
