Motherless Children Await Arrival of Air force One
TheTownCrier ^ | Sept. 21, 2007 | TheTownCrier

Posted on 09/21/2007 11:17:55 AM PDT by AuntB

Last night on the David Letterman show, his redundant spot about Bush's poor speaking abilities featured a statement about the immigration debate. The president was leaning over the podium whining that some farmer (Is that what they call transnational corporate agriculture now?) met him at Air Force One, suffering mightily, because ' he can't find no body to pull them onions fer him....'

Well isn't that special? The president must have been in Georgia. Vidalia Onions are a big crop with even BIGGER owners with political ties, who have pulled off destroying employer sanctions of illegal aliens hires before. This time it's called Ag Jobs, and it's amnesty. No doubt about it. It's being slimed through the senate right now in an unrelated bill by Diane Fienstien and Larry Craig, and others along with the 'Dream Act'.

In 1998, the Georgia Congressional delegation, pressed by big ag interests desiring illegal cheap labor with no regret, wrote INS and demanded workplace enforcement be stopped! Not only did it stop in Georgia, but other state representatives did the same and started the end of employers of illegal aliens being held accountable to labor and immigration laws. In the past few months there have finally been some raids at these criminal enterprises, but with this kind of political pressure it won't last.

So, it worked well before, why not! Here are these onion slave masters begging again for a share of the collective corporate/government spoils. Don't feel left out of the equation, fellow peon citizen, you're a part of this too! YOU get to pay for it.

Often in blood.

I had a flash when I saw Bush twisting to try to make us feel sorry for his corporate/political patrons.

I envisioned children, at the airport, waiting for the presdent to arrive on Air force One; orphans. U.S. Citizens 'refugees' in the war of illegal immigration. Surely a compassionate president will have time for the hundreds of them.

I saw their faces.

Georgia? Randy Burris pushed Heather Carlson's baby carriage from the path of a car driven by a drunk illegal alien, Ricardo Arriaga-Gutierrez. A resident of Clarke County Georgia, Randy was the father of three children.

There was 2yr. old Sophie, who's mother Adrienne Shelly was hanged and murdered by day laborer Diego Pillco.

The children and grandchildren of Donna and Sean Wilson of Mt. Juliet, Tennessee killed by a man not deported after 14 prior arrests.

The children of Joyce Dargan of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. She was hit by a car driven by a 14-year-old illegal alien Mexican (a student at the local high school) as he drag raced against another Mexican boy at speeds of 80 miles per.

Debbie Thomas was the mother of three, killed in a head-on collision on Christmas Eve 2003 when her car was struck by a car being driven in the wrong direction. The offending driver, Narciso Garcia-Jimenez, escaped from his hospital bed and is still at large.

But some of the children's faces were faint. They're the children victims of illegal aliens. Sweet little ghosts like Esmerelda Nava , aged four, strangled, molested and killed by an illegal alien, Cornelio Rivera Zamites of Vera Cruz, Mexico, who had been deported in 2003. Jose Raul Pena , an illegal alien from El Salvador earlier deported for cocaine possession, used his 2 year old daughter Suzie as a human shield in an hours-long Los Angeles shootout with police. Pena and Suzie were both killed.

Nine-year-old Jordin Paulder offered to help a driver with an automobile problem. The car stopped, and Santos Benigno Cabrera Borjas emerged, wielding a hatchet. He twice smashed Jordin in the face between the nose and forehead.

Alejandra Gutierrez, age 10 along with the 4 other members of his family. Kevin Bryant, 8 years old killed by Eli Alvarez this last May. Zina, age 12, who was herself a legal immigrant, raped and murderd by an alien. There was the Unborn baby and her teen age mom run over by alien Jorge Quintas in January in Chicago.

16-year-old Amy Dumas was shot dead during a home invasion as she tried to protect her wheelchair-bound father, who was also killed. Apparently four Asian gang members forced themselves into the family's apartment and shot father and daughter several times. The accused are "Cambodian-born men"

And there were the babies. Alex Tsuji, 2 , Kelynn Byrd, age 2 , Xavier Brown, 2, Tyler Evans, 4 Laura Ayala 3 yrs; the list never ends.

To the White House, along with too many in our government, the victims are invisible; mere collateral economic 'damage'. You got cheap veggies, so shut up!

Since 911 thousands of our children have been made 'little ghosts' . Sacrificed at the alter of cheap illegal labor. If President Bush can convince you to be as 'compassionate' as he is for his well healed friends who can just 'show up' at Air Force One, many thousands more innocent Americans will die.

Many people flee the country of their origin because they are criminals. They come from societies where only criminals survive. If they are not the criminal element, often they are the victims. It's a way of life from the first breath. We pay for that abuse and loss of illegal alien life as well. Illegal aliens commit a higher rate of crime. They arrive poor, tortured, on the run, illiterate, ticked off at everyone and more often than not a burden to society that you pay for. Many of them refuse to try to communicate with or be a part of U.S. Citizen society . Without communication, there is no peace.

The alien enabling crowd is the only economic winner in this, as they demand we allow more illegal aliens to roam unidentified, freely to prey on our children and mothers. The rest of us are being drained.

Seventy percent of women who gave birth at Parkland Hospital in Dallas, Texas in the first quarter of 2006 were illegal aliens. That’s 11,200 anchor babies born a year in only one hosital.

JFK's ghost is still roaming the halls of the place yet today, looking around and muttering, "Por Que, Teddy?"

Hm. I think this little rant would qualify as a "rambling statement." Nothing but a disjointed jumble of thoughts purporting to be a coherent commentary.

Alien crime in the news today:

MUNDELEIN — A Mundelein man with a past DUI arrest is suspected of being drunk when he crashed into a motorcycle late Wednesday night, leaving the driver in critical condition.

Sergio A. Gomez, 42, of 277 S. Hickory Ave., No. 8, was arrested following the wreck on Midlothian Road.

According to reports, Gomez pulled out of the Walgreens parking lot near Route 60/83 and was traveling north on Midlothian when his 2000 Buick LeSabre crossed into the southbound lane and struck a motorcycle.

The driver of the motorcycle, an unidentified 52-year-old Mundelein man, was airlifted to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge, where he remained in critical condition Thursday.

Gomez showed signs of being intoxicated at the scene, O’Brien said. Police drew blood to test for alcohol, but results were not available Thursday.

He was charged with two counts of aggravated DUI and one count of felony driving on a revoked license. He also received a citation for driving without insurance and driving without headlights, O’Brien said.

Additionally, Gomez had four outstanding warrants for his arrest. Two Lake County warrants cited driving driving on a revoked license and failure to appear in court for possessing a fake ID card. The other warrants were issued on Rolling Meadows charges of DUI and driving on a revoked license.

Gomez is being held in the Lake County Jail in lieu of $350,000 bail.

Alien crime in the news today:

As the intruder kicks in her front door, the 17-year-old Addison girl’s desperate pleas for help quickly turned into blood-curdling screams.

Instead of just imagining her horror, a DuPage County judge was given a front-row seat today while listening to a 911 tape that recorded the crime as it unfolded.

“You could only characterize this as chilling and blood-curdling,” DuPage Circuit Judge Robert Anderson said. “From a judge’s perspective, it offers a rare insight into the offense and, certainly, the terror and horror she went through is clear on that tape.”

The judge sentenced Luis Jaramillo to 24 years in prison for attacking his neighbor early June 21, 2006 after breaking into her Green Oaks Court apartment.

An apologetic Jaramillo, 39, insists he never intended to harm the teen, but she said he repeatedly hit her while trying to pull down her pants. She was home alone watching her 4-year-old niece.

“She just stood there crying watching while he was doing this to me,” the teen said in court Thursday. “I feared for her safety so I yelled for her to leave again. I turned and said, with tears in my eyes, ‘I don’t care if I die. Leave! I love you.’ Thankfully, she was able to escape.”

Seconds earlier, the teen had called 911 after noises at the door awakened her. While talking to the police dispatcher, the intruder burst through the front door. The teen retreated into her bedroom, where she tried to block him from entry.

But he forced the door open. Within minutes, Addison police officer John Zorbas arrived and thwarted the attack before the teen was seriously injured. The officer is heard on the 911 tape ordering Jaramillo to “Get on the ground! Get on the ground! On your back!”

Jaramillo has remained in jail on a $1 million bond since his arrest. He pleaded guilty to home invasion during an earlier court hearing. He faced six to 30 years in prison.

“With all of my heart, I am asking for forgiveness,” he said, through a Spanish interpreter. “If you don’t forgive me, I understand. I am sorry.”

Illegal immigrant loses testicles, freedom after firing on SWAT team

It’s been a year and a half since Texas police raided Guillermo Urquiza’s home, looking for proof that he tried to order a hit on a police officer. Urquiza, who was asleep, grabbed a gun and fired when he heard the commotion. Officers fired back, hitting him in the crotch and stomach. He had to be castrated as a result.

He’s been sentenced to five years for firing at the officers — they were never able to prove the original accusation. He says it’s unfair because he didn’t know they were police. The authorities say they clearly announced and identified themselves. Their uniforms were also clearly marked.

Once Urquiza gets out, he’ll be deported — he’s an illegal immigrant.

Illegal Immigrant Pleads Guilty To Killing Marine, Date

COLUMBIA, Md. — An illegal immigrant accused of killing a Marine and his date in a DUI crash last November pleaded guilty in court on Tuesday.

Edwardo Morales-Soriano, 26, pleaded guilty to two counts of negligent manslaughter.

According to police, Soriano’s vehicle slammed into the rear of a car stopped at a red light at the intersection of Routes 175 and 108 in Columbia last Thanksgiving.

Jennifer Bower, 24, of Montgomery Village, and Brian Matthews, 21, of Columbia, died as a result of the crash.

Matthews had served in Ramadi, Iraq, as part of the Fox Company 2nd Battalion 5th Marine Regiment. He had just celebrated Thanksgiving with his family when he and Bower went out on a date.

Court documents showed that Soriano had a blood-alcohol level of .32 that night. The legal limit is .08. Court officials said that after the crash, Soriano got out of his car, stumbled, sat on a guardrail and shook his head.

Officials said Soriano had a Maryland driver’s license, but is a citizen of Mexico.

EL CAJON – Raul Yepez Jimenez approached a woman he’d never met on an El Cajon street, held her at gunpoint, and groped and attacked her, according to testimony in a Superior Court hearing Wednesday.

The woman resisted and screamed, which drew the attention of some nearby police officers. The attack ended when Jimenez pointed a .38-caliber revolver at El Cajon Police Officer Mark Bevan, who shot him twice in the abdomen, Bevan testified.

When asked by police why he assaulted the woman, Jimenez, 31, said he wanted companionship and he snickered, an investigator testified. [snip]

Police make arrest in Tuesday slaying

Brownsville police arrested a suspect in an East Side killing Thursday, after they identified the suspect in surveillance tape walking into a Stripes convenience store for a bite to eat after the incident .

Oscar Padilla Martinez, a Mexican national, was arrested about 4 p.m. Wednesday and charged with failing to report a felony offense, according to jail logs. Thursday morning he was charged with murder, said Brownsville police spokesman Sgt. Jimmy Manrrique.

Police detectives alleged Padilla, 33, was an active participant in the gruesome slaying of a man, believed to be in his late-20s to early-30, found dead shortly after 9 a.m. Tuesday at Bagar Auto Body Shop on the 5600 block of Coffeeport Road, Manrrique.

When employees at the shop arrived Tuesday morning, they found “Mario,” as police are identifying the man, hanged. Detectives report Mario was an undocumented immigrant originally from Chiapas, Mexico. [snip]

It's still an incoherent mess of an article -- he starts out talking about farmers and onions, and ends up with Dallas birth statistics, and visits many, many different places as he staggers from start to finish, never properly introducing or finishing his thoughts as he goes.

Bad punditry -- which is the point of my comment.

Interesting article here:

Who will protect us?

Mexican government increases efforts to protect its emigrants

by
Ernesto Cienfuegos
La Voz de Aztlan

Los Angeles, Alta California - August 13, 2007 - (ACN) Urged by a network of immigrant rights organizations in the US, the Mexican congress and the presidency have launched an initiative that will coordinate their efforts intended to come to the aid of its increasingly besieged emigrant community in the US. Representatives of immigrant rights organizations travelled to Mexico City recently to impress upon the Mexican government the nature of the crisis being faced by its emigrant community in the US due to the ongoing ICE raids and consequent break up of families.

The “Commission on Foreign Relations” of the Mexican congress will meet tomorrow with top officials of the Mexican “Department of State” to formulate a plan of action designed to address the crisis. Among items on the agenda are ways to assist the tens of thousands of nationals being deported and returned to Mexico. There is presently an urgent need to help deportees who are trapped in border towns without any resources. Many are indigenous nationals who do not speak Spanish.

The Mexican government has been concerned for the physical safety of its emigrants posed by the extremist and violent elements of US anti-immigrant movement. Last Thursday it strongly criticized the “excessive use of force” by American border authorities. There have now been a number of killings of Mexican nationals by the “loose trigger” US Border patrol. The Mexican Department of State said, “The Mexican government expresses a firm protest against the use of lethal weapons in the face of situations that do not represent a proportionate risk,” It added, “Mexico reiterates its condemnation of the excessive use of force by U.S. immigration authorities on the border.”

One week ago, an unidentified Border Patrol agent shot and killed Jose Alejandro Ortiz Castillo, age 23, at the fence that separates El Paso, Texas from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. In addition. last month, an undercover border agent in the San Diego area fatally shot an immigrant from Mexico after a minor scuffle. Also, in January, US Border Patrol agent Nicholas Corbett shot and killed a youth from Mexico in Arizona. Agent Corbett was charged with murder and is presently being tried in a federal court. These are just the most recent cases that have resulted in the death of unarmed Mexican immigrants of the many that have occurred over the past few years.

Another baby lost.

A Santa Maria man who was allegedly driving a vehicle that struck and killed a 3-year-old girl Sept. 11 has been charged with felony hit and run resulting in death or injury.

Miguel Gallardo, 21, pleaded not guilty to the hit-and-run charge and a misdemeanor count of driving without a license this week in Santa Barbara County Superior Court in Santa Maria.

He is due back in court Monday.

Gallardo was arrested Sept. 12 after Santa Maria police followed a tip about a vehicle that matched the description of the 1999 red Lincoln Navigator reported by witnesses the night of the incident that caused 3-year-old Gizel Lopez’s death.

Officers said they matched Gallardo’s Navigator tread patterns to those that the hit-and-run vehicle left at the scene. The SUV was impounded.

Gizel reportedly ran into the path of the vehicle about 6:20 p.m. in front of her house in the 200 block of East Hermosa Street. She died of multiple internal injuries at Marian Medical Center several hours after she was struck.

Senior Deputy District Attorney Lynn Cutler, the prosecutor on the case, called the incident “tragic.

“He should have owned up to it right then, because that’s what you do when you’re an adult and handling a potentially deadly weapon,” Cutler said.

Gallardo was in custody at the Santa Barbara County Jail Wednesday evening with a no-bail hold administered by the Immigration and Naturalization Service, according to the jail.

Illegal alien crime in the news today.

Marshall man sentenced after pleading guilty to felony assault on baby

Robert Pineda, 36, has been sentenced to five years in the Missouri Department of Corrections for the assault of his seven-month-old daughter, Briseida Pineda, according to Saline County Prosecuting Attorney Donald G. Stouffer.

Pineda is an illegal alien from El Salvador.

Stouffer said he asked the Pettis County court to sentence Pineda to the maximum term of seven years, arguing that Pineda’s crime was devastating to Briseida, and that she would remain unable to contribute to her own care or to enjoy life in any meaningful sense.

Stouffer further argued Pineda was in this country illegally, and that his only contribution had been to leave a child in a permanent vegetative state, costing the taxpayers of Missouri what will likely be millions of dollars for the child’s lifelong care. [snip]

Cargua, 17, and McLean, 19, were pronounced dead at the scene.

Crystal Cargua’s parents said it would be today before the medical examiner could make an official ruling on the identities of the burned bodies found in the accident debris.

The driver of the Ford Ranger, Jose De Jesus Euzondo Balderas, 19, of Washington, N.C ., was not injured. He was charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter, driving while impaired, driving without a license, reckless driving and underage consumption of alcohol. A passenger in the truck was also uninjured.

At Balderas’ initial court appearance Monday, Guilford County District Court judge Tom Jarrell increased his bond from $60,000 to $1 million.

“We have difficulty knowing your citizenship, we have difficulty knowing your identity, we don’t know who you are, and you are a flight risk with no ties to this community,” Jarrell told Balderas at the hearing.[snip]

Luis Alvarez, 24, who lives near Montgomery, is charged with felony leaving the scene of a fatal accident. Police arrested him late Sunday in Michigan on a $500,000 warrant.

Authorities said Alvarez fled after his red 2000 Pontiac Montana struck the rear of a motorcycle at about 8 p.m. Saturday near the intersection of Route 59 and Stimmel Street in West Chicago.

Rescuers found the motorcycle’s driver, William Rezac, 55, of Warrenville and his female passenger, 51-year-old Deborah Atkinson, of Lisle with severe injuries. Both were rushed to Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield.

A doctor pronounced Atkinson dead shortly later. Rezac was airlifted to Loyola Medical Center in Maywood, were he remained Monday in critical condition.

Back at the crash scene, witnesses told police officers the other motorist in the crash fled south on Route 59. Minutes later, police found the Pontiac Montana abandoned about a half-mile away at Forest and Easton avenues. Police said the car had extensive front-end damage, consistent with a traffic crash.
