The Alarcón case is believed to be the first on the crowded court dockets here – and one of the few nationally – involving a Mexican law enforcement officer Alarcón and his attorney must prove that as a municipal officer, he belonged to a social group that was persecuted and that the government was unable to protect him In fiscal 2010, asylum applications from Mexicans before immigration judges jumped to nearly 3,800, up about 35 percent from the year earlier and the highest level in five years. But less than 2 percent of those who in 2010 applied ultimately were granted asylum, according to information obtained after Freedom of Information Act requests by Syracuse University's Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse Asylum petitions at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service also increased last fiscal year for Mexicans, through a different process, to 2,320. About 5 percent received approval The approval rates grate on some at Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center in El Paso, where at least five potential clients walk in weekly asking for asylum"We have an international crisis," said Eduardo Beckett, the managing attorney

If they start approving asylum based on some danger Mexicans claim they face due to the drug violence, then the number who might make that claim could be half the population.

This guy was a Law Enforcement officer, probably has a clean record, he had a job, that’s for sure.

Obama will send him home. He only wants drug dealers ,criminals and lawn help to come into America.

THE ASYLUM SCAM If you are a dangerous felon, a drug lord, a useless Third World freak, misfit or mental case, just ask America for "asylum" and you will get a free lawyer and mucho benefits...... to milk US taxpayers bigtime.

All these Third World lowlifes are jumping onboard the "asylum" scam b/c it revs up the US gravy train bigtime.

Some Third Worlders are pleading "domestic violence". Mexicans claim "drug violence" forced them to flee over the border to seek "asylum."

They know SocSec provides financial aid to "refugees" seeking asylum, claiming "persecution".....they collect SS checks of $1000 a month...for 7 years straight (w/ extensions made by desperate Dems looking for votes).

================================================

That does not include a panoply of govt freebies-----"EITC---earned income credit" of up to $3,200 scot-free, Section 8 housing and subsidized rent, food stamps and no deductible, no co-pay free health care, free school breakfasts and lunches for kids.

The kids qualify for monthly SSI checks, faking ADD; the illegal and the elderly get SSI if they fake being aged, blind or disabled; SSI qualifies them for Medicare.

They don't worry about pricey items like car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance, and get relief from high energy bills.

ALL OF THAT IS COLLECTED WITH JUST ONE IDENTITY Evidence shows illegals establish several identities with phony SS nos and fake documents (which these "poor immigrants" buy from document brokers for several thousand dollars).

=============================

"EITC---earned income credit" of up to $3,200 scot-free is a gov "gimme" program. Proposed by Nixon, signed into law by Ford and increased under every administration since, without exception. Should be repealed but anytime a Republican even suggests slowing its growth, the liberals scream, "Republicans hate the "poor" and Republicans back down.

REFERENCE Watch TV's Judge Judy. She always makes a point to determine a litigant's stability by asking about their incomes and jobs. The look of disgust on JJ's face when these immigrants say they receive a refund for not paying taxes, is priceless.

And there are probably members of the Mexican military who could make the same asylum claim. The people who are to fight the drug corruption and dangers are seeking asylum because of the dangers? Every police chief in northern Mexico could make such a claim. Every family member of such people could make such a claim. There would be almost no end to it.

And in the meantime Obama is going to pull our troops off the border. This has already spilled over onto American soil and they are hiding the data on OTM entries into the US through the border.

OTM means Other Than Mexican. Can you say potential terrorists? Or should that read undocumented terrorists?

The Iraqis had to learn the hard way too. When AlQuieda and local terrorists were killing American soldiers they were okay with it and even cheered them on. Then the bad guys started killing Iraqi and blowing up neighborhoods or turning the towns into battlefields between Americans and bad guys. After awhile they started wising up and helped the American and government forces fight the bad guys and helped run them out of their neighborhoods. The people living in the neighborhoods know who the bad guys are maybe they should arm up and clean up.

If America has to have Mexicans, I’d rather it be the good (but overwhelmed) guys. The rest will essentially commit social suicide.

Start forming an Inactive Reserve of Mexican authorities so that when we have to take military action we have a direct link to a legitimate authority.
