Illegals targeted sheriff as gang initiation
The Washington Times ^ | February 26, 2009 | Jerry Seper

Posted on 02/26/2009 4:27:11 AM PST by appleseed

The attempted assassination of a South Carolina deputy sheriff was a gang initiation carried out by three illegal immigrants including a 15-year-old boy who was supposed to "kill a cop" in order to be admitted as a member, according to a confidential Department of Homeland Security advisory.

Lexington County, S.C., Deputy Sheriff Ted Xanthakis and his K-9 police dog, Arcos, were attacked by the three illegals armed with a 12-gauge shotgun during a Feb. 8 incident in West Columbia, S.C., shortly after 3 a.m. The deputy and his dog survived.

Two of the men were identified in a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) report as members of the Surenos gang, or SUR-13, a collection of Mexican-American street gangs with origins in the oldest barrios of Southern California.

Hundreds of SUR-13 gangs operate in California and have spread to many other parts of the country. The paramilitary organization has been described by federal law enforcement agencies as actively involved in illegal-immigrant and drug smuggling.

What a bunch of criminal slugs! ...our very own born-in-North/Central-America terrorists.

That's no way to treat our upcoming American citizens.

How will Obama and his Socialist Government cover these things up for 4 years? Actually surprised that this even made it into the news....

Incidents such as this could help No-bama establish his own modern-day brown shirt force....his "civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded as the American military." I really do expect him to use a lack of jobs and these incidents of lawlessness to try to get it done.

Seems like a burst from an Mini 14 would take care of the issue...
Oh, Wait, Citizens wont be able to have them, just Mexican Gang Members and a couple of demoralized policemen.

Theses are the "teens" and "youngsters" killed by handgun violence.

Pffft.... I want Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the "understanding" libs to rub shoulders with these fine misunderstood youngsters.

or their relatives.

“Citizens wont be able to have them, just Mexican Gang Members and a couple of demoralized policemen.”

And a couple 100 thousand citizens that bought them before the 0bama/Holder regime took power.

It is beginning to appear that law abiding citizens will have to rise up and eliminate this threat.

Agreed.

We need to completely eliminate this threat by leaving NO ONE alive for the lawyers and left to weep.....

I am specifly refering to gang bangers, not all the illegals....

What hasn't been said is that our government is ensuring that the gangs are the new militias. Law abiding, identifiable citizens need not apply; any neighborhood self-defense groups they form will be ruthlessly suppressed. This is a recipe for bloody chaos.

More of Jorge Boosh and Juan McQueeg’s legacy on display.

You got that right. And ironically, their 'legacy' now includes an undocumented illegal in the White House, aka 'TKU' [see my tagline]

Yet another reason why we need to secure our southern border! Free roaming gangs will destroy this country if they are not stopped. These gangs will have the effect of turning our country into another Mexico! They need to be stopped and put down now before they gain even greater strength!

“It is beginning to appear that law abiding citizens will have to rise up and eliminate this threat. “

What other solution is there? The Federal govt and state governments have all failed the people miserably!

“Ultimately there will be a time when they won't want to come back,” Walrapp said. “That's what our goal is — to keep them out of the U.S.”

I fear that with Janet Napolitano at the helm, her goal is different than Walrapp’s. Homeland Security under 0bama is not what its name implies or its intended purpose. I worked for DHS for 4 years. I can't believe what it will become under the 0 administration.
