It is an absolute affront to decent hard working Americans that this is allowed to happen on our borders. Politicians that support and allow our borders to be open and unprotected should be tried, charged, and hung for treason against the people of the United States.
How long will we allow this to continue? How are we to claim we are even a country? A "state" without defended borders that allows its citizens to be molested and killed at the hands of foreign invaders, a "state" that encourages the invaders, provides them with room, board, cash, safe haven, and other tangible assets is no country..... it is a lawless landmass.
And yet our "representatives" have the nerve and audacity to chastise the afflicted citizenry as "racist," "heartless," and "extremist."
When we become a nation of men, vice a nation of laws, the citizenry will take the law into its own hands. Lawlessness cannot exist. Human beings are orderly by nature. They seek order from the void; be it a Constitutional Republic, a dictatorship, support to a warlord, or tribalism. When lawlessness occurs a power vaccuum is created. Humans rush to fill the void. Iraq is a prime example; tired of the violence and lawlessness, tribes and individual citizens (with the aid of the US) alike banded to oust their terrorist suppressors and "foreign fighters," stripping the foreigners of their power.
In these United States, the general citizenry supports their freedoms; many jealously guard them. When those freedoms (especially the tenets of LIFE and liberty) are not protected against a foreign invader, the citizenry will push back in order to bring about security, law, and order; hence the Minuteman Project. However, when these efforts fail, the only forced alternative is armed suppresion of the invadere.... the citezenry will eventually decide their very survival depends on it.
It would be wise to effectively seal the border through legal means via the National Guards, armed forces, and Border Patrol; lest the American citizenry decide through near hoplessness the solution lies with them....... the affects of those citizen decisions would be bloody, and could spread fighting and animosity elsewhere in the US political spectrum.
just my two cents.
If the government won’t assume its responsibility the people will and elect a new government in the process in November and 2012.
As some of the other Freepers have stated in the past, the three S’s may be in order:
Shoot, shovel and shut up. No trace of an illegal alien trespassing on your property, no problem. Sounds a bit unethical and probably immoral, however if your life is in danger and the government isn’t doing anything about it, I don’t think you have much choice. When enough of these drug smugglers and other criminals get the message that their cohorts seem to be disappearing somewhere across the border, maybe they’ll rethink the issue. However I doubt it. When they can send millions over the border for the past 20-30 years with little or no repercussions, it will continue. Especially if they vote democrat.
worth more than a two cent bump
