ICE agents warn Americans “to brace themselves for what’s coming”
The Examiner ^ | 6/24/11 | Dave Gibson

Posted on 06/24/2011 3:43:38 PM PDT by Nachum

In the wake of the recent memo from the Obama administration which announced “prosecutorial discretion” in dealing with illegal aliens, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents across the country have been speaking out what many of them are calling a “backdoor amnesty.”

On Wednesday, ICE Union president Chris Crane told PRNewswire: “Any American concerned about immigration needs to brace themselves for what's coming. This is just one of many new ICE policies in queue aimed at stopping the enforcement of U.S. immigration laws in the United States. Unable to pass its immigration agenda through legislation, the Administration is now implementing it through agency policy.”

Crane continued: “ICE and the Administration have excluded our union and our agents from the entire process of developing policies, it was all kept secret from us, we found out from the newspapers. ICE worked hand-in-hand with immigrants rights groups, but excluded its own officers.”

Also ignored by the press, was last year's no confidence vote ICE agents gave Obama appointee, ICE director John Morton.

The National ICE Council represents about 7,000 agents and support staff.

Those agents, just as many American citizens are also convinced that the new policy, which gives special preference to illegal aliens who have a relative who has served in the military, those who are enrolled in any education program and even those who are pregnant or nursing is simply to a move from an unpopular president, desperate for re-election.

It’s becoming clear that the Rs are as much the cause of our problems as the Ds.

Gee, ya think!!??? I've been saying that for some time, now.

Can not the House of Representatives petition the courts to order the law of the land be enforced? The courts can order forced busing, enforce other elements of the civil rights act, and any number of other rulings where the legislative branch must obey the court. Why not this?

Because NONE of our elected pols have the guts or the will to do it!!! I have said it before and I'll say it again - our government is waaaayyyy out of control and the only way we will regain control is to take over Washington.

(Read into that whatever you choose!)

If the Rs say/do nothing, they’re worse than useless.

Now you're catching on!!

I’ve known it for a long time, they’re just rubbing it in. Salt into the wound.

I like the t-shirt that says, “Our founding fathers would have been shooting by now”.

There are folks on here that think gunwalker will still bring down this regime. It seems they were born in the 90s, and just don’t remember what a pathetic show all of the hearings on Clinton’s crimes were.

The sooner we can heal the disease of normalcy bias in those who are actually on the side of freedom and the constitution, then the sooner we can hopefully keep some freedom in this land. Praying and voting alone will not do it, but it helps.

I agree. No way anyone will try to impeach the first mixed race president. If he were a plain old white guy, maybe.

Is this new set of rules going to apply to those who violate other laws? Can people who rob banks skate if they enroll in school? If someone has an outstanding DUI or piles of unpaid tickets- is going to school or the other other “loopholes” going to be a get out of jail free card for all issues? What is the difference? What is so special about violating immigration laws? Amazing.

“So... a rat judge can ‘sentence’ an illegal to the military rather than jail time”

In order to join the military you have to be a citizen or a resident. Illegal aliens aren’t eligible.

“Almost like our country is being fundamentally transformed.”

It is being fundamentally transformed, for years now. Refer to the U.N.’s Agenda 21: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agenda_21

They (including many of our elected leaders) want a North American Union.

Again, why can’t the federal govt. be charged under the RICO statute?! Specifically the Obama White House.

Because Eric Holder is the Attorney General--heads the Justice Dept., FBI, etc.

Until Obama, has there ever been, in history, a Traitorous Ruler?

I don’t think Agenda 21 is on Obama’s mind. I think he wants the complete destruction of America. EVERY SINGLE CHOICE he makes is to America’s detriment.

There are simply too many forces arrayed against it.

The real problem is there are not enough people in power standing and opposing them.

“I don’t think Agenda 21 is on Obama’s mind. I think he wants the complete destruction of America. EVERY SINGLE CHOICE he makes is to America’s detriment.”

If not to implement the U.N.’s vision for the world, then for what purpose?
