BOOZE BOTTLE NAILS 'KILLER'SUSPECT TURNS SELF IN FOR NEWARK SCHOOLYARD SLAYS

Aided by a fingerprint left on a bottle of Colt 45 and a positive ID from a fearless survivor, cops yesterday charged the alleged ringleader in the Newark schoolyard massacre - an immigrant with a violent rap sheet that includes child rape.

Apparently, he’s not alone.

A January 2004 article in the Washington Times, Illegal Criminal Aliens Abound in U.S., by Jerry Seper notes:

“About 80,000 illegal criminal aliens, including convicted murderers, rapists, drug dealers and child molesters who served prison time and were released, are loose on the streets of America, hiding from federal immigration authorities.

[secret garden]

Not when they lump illegal aliens into the same category. I don’t consider them immigrants when they’re illegal.

[Southerngl]

If he has a ‘rap for child rape’, why is he on the streets?

[Congressman Billybob]

I remind you that we are not a "nation of ILLEGAL immigrants." Although all my ancestors were legal immigrants, some relatives of mine had ancestors who were here before Columbus got here.

It remains true that: A nation which cannot control its borders, cannot control its destiny.

The Constitution gives control of immigration and naturalization to Congress. Congress has passed sufficient laws. But Congress (through inadequate funding) and the President (through inadequate commitment to enforcement) are not carrying out those laws.

He turned himself in because he has gotten away scot free in the past.

Rapes a 5 year old and still walks the streets.

The officials in Newark still will not say if he is illegal.

The system is a joke and he knows it because he has lived it.

Meanwhile, Fox News is also reporting that yet again the Mexican govt is outraged by a border agent who shot a human smuggler threatening him with a rock.

This is the most outrageous thing I've read about in a long time. Those kids, good kids, not involved in drugs and gangs, going to college, something no doubt very difficult to do while growing up in Newark, where gangs and violence are rampant, are shot to death in a schoolyard. And to add insult to injury, the scumbag is an illegal with a nasty police record. Absolutely incredible.

When is it going to stop? The sister of my sister's friend was murdered a couple years ago by an illegal from Honduras, stabbed 37 times, no known motive, and this girl is just dead now, life over at 20, for no good reason.

Defeating the immigration bill was the first step, in that it brought awareness to the problem. We're in deep trouble as a country, I think, if we don't do something about this, and I don't just mean the small percentage who are violent lawbreakers. The whole immigration issue has such incredibly far-reaching implications. And right now it just seems like most politicians are living through the looking glass, because so much of it makes no sense whatsoever. It's backwards and upside-down.

It's astounding to me that a judge in PA could rule against the mayor there in his efforts to put a stop to illegals in his town (my family used to live in Hazleton in the mid-nineties and the problem he was trying to fix is a very recent one - no influx of illegals when we lived there), and it is even more astounding that a judge in MD could dismiss charges of repeated child rape against a Liberian - who went to high school and college here - for language barrier issues. What on earth have we become?

Whew. OK, I'm done.

I bet you’ll find out that it was not Congress or even (gasp!) the President who was “responsible,” but the State of New Jersey or possibly even the city of Newark itself. You are aware, I hope, that there are many cities and states where the police and court system are basically ordered to (a) not enquire about immigration status; (b) not pursue cases against illegal aliens because this might “reveal” their immigration status or force their deportation or interfere with their welfare and medical benefits; and (c) basically make no effort to identify and remove dangerous illegal aliens because it might “prejudice” immigration authorities against them. I know because I have family members in law enforcement who work in one of these cities.

Some local jurisdictions are finally beginning to pass laws putting an end to this, and I suggest that people stop screaming “it’s all Bush’s fault” (it’s not) and start lighting a fire under their local governments. That’s where the problem lies. The Feds can pass all the laws they want, but unless local jurisdictions enforce them and support them with their own laws, Federal law will continue to be meaningless.

There was no reason this man should have been in the country in the first place, and certainly no reason he should have been allowed to stay here with the record he accumulated during his time here. They had him. They knew who he was, what he had done, and where he was. So why wasn’t he deported?

If he has a ‘rap for child rape’, why is he on the streets?

Who knows, maybe the judge dismissed his charges too.

Newark was the place, IIRC, where the Bosnians who were planning to attack Fort Dix managed to live their entire lives as illegal aliens, attending public schools, going through all of the normal systems, and it never, ever came to the attention of anyone there.

Well, until they were in the midst of planning to kill some American soldiers.

There is nice NJ, and thes there is the armpit NJ. The blind sheik who led the first WTC bombing was hanging out in one of those multicultural cesspools. It’s been that way since Maffia came.

[apocalypto]

Good points.

I recall a vote recently that Rush talked about, that failed, that was intended to require felons who are illegal immigrants to be deported. I think that the GOP could take the opportunity of this crime to highlight the consequences of liberalism on society by pointing out that this is the sort of person that Democrats want to keep here and protect, while innocent people are left on their own.

I think they (gop politicians) have learned their lesson. Remember how showing Willie Horton's picture brought charges of "ray-sizzum?" The Hegelian Dialectic at work.

A point so often overlooked by the Bush haters.

Is Newark a sanctuary city for Illegal Aliens ?

I think the whole state is a sanctuary for illegals.

N.J. hasn't passed immigration law in 2007
August 8, 2007

New Jersey is one of nine states that haven't passed immigration-related laws this year, according to a new report. From January through July 2, 41 states passed laws aimed at cracking down on illegal immigrants...

Because of New Jersey's more "nuanced view" of immigration, politicians haven't been under fierce pressure to pass anti-immigrant laws, he said.

And now the House and Senate are hyper over the Dream Act to sneak amnesty to these thugs.

IIRC, the Willie Horton ad was both accurate and effective. The lesson of the ad is that it was a good ad. When the libs squeal, yer over the target. Isn't that true?

[Califreak]

I can’t remember which MSM I was watching, but I think they said “Peruvian National” or some such thing to avoid the dirty “I” word.

[Uri’el-2012]

If I understand you correctly, the democrat party leadership
in New Jersey needs to be indicted for this murder and any
other felonies in New Jersey committed by Illegal Aliens.

[Huck]

A point so often overlooked by the Bush haters.

I don't see what the relevance of that is. Bush is on the wrong side of the immigration issue.
