Small Town, USA learns the hard way that welcoming lawbreakers has negative consequences

At this point, Joe Biden and the Bidenites don’t just have a little blood on their hands, they’re bathing in it.

A few days back, AT published an essay by contributor C.S. Boddie that highlighted a recent tragedy in Colorado: an illegal alien, who had been deported four times before, killed a mother and her 16-year-old son, as he drove (allegedly) completely inebriated near a high school. The illegal had four “alcohol-related driving” convictions under his belt, and just days before, he’d received probation, community service, and work release from a Colorado judge; Boddie’s piece also included a number of other “chilling” examples underscoring the deadly consequences of admitting millions of scofflaws.

But dead Americans aren’t the only casualties—say adios to Whitewater, Wisconsin, a once-safe and once-quaint midwestern town. Whitewater recently came into the national spotlight after a letter to the Biden regime got picked up by conservative media. Local police chief Daniel Meyer, had appealed to Washington to request help for the influx of illegals that have cropped up since 2022, putting a “strain” on reasources, and bringing in problems like… these:

Sexual assaults. Skyrocketing unlicensed drivers. A reduction in the ability to do proactive policing. Substandard living arrangements. These are just some of the issues #Whitewater is facing due to an influx of #illegal immigrants to the city of 15,000 people… — Wisconsin Right Now (@wisconsin_now) January 3, 2024

But, don’t get confused, Meyer isn’t actually against open borders, and neither is the local government apparently; from the Wisconsin Examiner on Tuesday:

[EXCERPT]

Unlike the Republican politicians who have been making political hay out of his letter to Biden, Whitewater’s police chief took pains to state in the letter that ‘none of this information is shared as a means of denigrating or vilifying this group of people. … In fact, we see a great value in the increasing diversity that this group brings to our community.’

‘Our officers have also seen first-hand the terrible living conditions that many migrants are living in,’ Meyer stated in the letter, which asks for money to beef up the police force, hire an immigrant liaison, and to pay for a ride-share program, affordable housing and language instruction. ‘We simply need to ensure that we can properly serve this group and the entirety of the community,’ he wrote.

‘We have found approximately three times the number of unlicensed drivers on our roadways compared to previous years,’ Meyer wrote in his letter.

One thing that would help, Meyer has said in several interviews, would be for Wisconsin to allow undocumented immigrants to get driver’s licenses.

And there it is—with a driver’s license in Wisconsin, these illegals then have the “right” to vote. According to the state’s government website, all that’s required to register to vote is a “Proof of Residence” document… which can be a valid state driver’s license.

Bears repeating. 🤬

September 1787...”A Republic, IF you can keep it”. January 2021...”insert your own words here because IT DOESN’T MATTER ANYMORE”. sorry for the yelling. it really doesn’t matter anymore. all we can do at this point in the history of the Greatest nation this planet has ever known is to PRAY for the best. and prepare for the worst. as someone once said, “The righteous care for the heathens because the heathen knows not what they do, even when they kill the righteous for caring”. it’s the lot in life of the Christian Soul to die for righteousness. all I can say is...damn!

Worked as a quality/plant manager in Whitewater for a bit in the 90s. Had a small community college and I definitely felt a distinctive lean left in the little time I was there.

If that was my family the illegal killed, I would want to have a chat with that judge.

It used to be that little towns would take care of their problems their own way.

This moronic sheriff, the mayor and the folks that voted them in must suffer the consequences of their stupid actions alone. This would be a teachable moment for most normal people. Unfortunately, they apparently do not have a capacity to learn.

So by giving the illegals a license they won’t drive drunk or rape women?
