Although such rituals as the memorial service at Tucson are appropriate and vital to the bond we all feel as members of a society in a time of grief, absent in this recognition of the innocents tragically killed and maimed was any allusion to or compassion for the thousands of victims who are killed and maimed as a consequence of turning our borders into an open sieves and giving sanctuary to criminals who are illegal aliens, enabling them to perpetrate repeated criminal acts on our communities. The article gives examples of those whose lives have been needlessly taken from us, including three members of one family gunned down in the sanctuary city of San Francisco. They too need to be remembered. Their lives are just as worthy as those memorialized at Tucson, and a real immigration policy, with protected borders, would meant that these tragedies could have been prevented. These deaths are not the consequences of the acts of a deranged gunman, but the results of our refusal to enforce our laws. In these deaths, we as a people should acknowledge our responsibilities.
