Your nation is threatened, and Uncle Sam doesn't care

Your nation is threatened, and Uncle Sam doesn't care.

By Chris Simcox Dec. 8, 2002

Enough is enough.

The mainstream popular print and television media have been sensationalizing my efforts; after all, I did lead them into the trap. You have been completely misinformed. The print media have created a fabrication of my intentions and goals. Folks, you've been had, again! This time you have a chance to learn something. What I hope you get from this is as basic as baseball, apple pie and Uncle Sam . . . it's the Uncle Sam I am worried about.

Why do we vote? I thought it was to choose people as public servants - good-hearted folks who told us they would represent us. We elect them based on their sincerity; they stroke us into believing in them, enough to entrust them to enforce the laws of the country. What a scam! Government does not enforce the basic laws that provide for our national security. For a year, my president and yours has been asking us to be vigilant in defense of our country.

I cannot think of a more effective effort than volunteering to stop terrorism (criminals, drugs and illegal immigration) from crossing our borders. We allow our government to threaten us with the impending disaster of another terrorist attack, yet Americans seem to be unwilling to defend themselves, let alone their country.

Americans seem morally devoid of the courage it takes to ward off an intruder breaking into their home, let alone realize the seriousness of allowing an invasion of refugees and drug dealers from foreign countries. It may be time to trust no one and begin building our alliances from the ground up.

The United States' borders and coastlines must be patrolled by the U.S. Army and/or state militias. That would be the National Guard. The military is to be utilized first to protect American citizens, yet you allow the government to tell you, "Sorry, we can't. It's too big a job." What they are telling you is that you and your loved ones are expendable casualties in this war on drugs and terrorism.

I among many others will not accept our government telling us it "can't." This is a "can do" society, and citizens will now risk confronting the government to get the point across.

Is it so wrong for Americans to demand some honest return on their tax investment?

The words "protect the people" are found in virtually every oath of office taken by elected and appointed officials in the nation, including police chiefs, mayors, county sheriffs, state legislators, governors, representatives and senators. Few of these officials on the public dole are taking those oaths seriously when it comes to the issue of protecting the United States. This problem has been ignored in just about every city and county in America while costing exorbitant amounts of taxpayer dollars, spent on social welfare and the education of illegal aliens. Ignoring this problem will result in an increasing crime rate in which too many American citizens become victims of criminal, illegal aliens.

We need responsible, controlled legal immigration policies to keep out likely criminals and those who have infectious diseases. Protecting citizens from such obvious dangers is the primary responsibility of our governmental agencies. That fundamental truth used to be recognized before business realized it could reduce labor costs by keeping the borders open for an endless supply of cheap foreign labor. I say hold these businesses accountable for following the law.

Our country calls itself a "nation of laws." But illegal immigration makes a mockery of that.

I have spent years teaching these values to my children and to the hundreds of children I nurtured as a schoolteacher. I have attempted to do the right thing for the youth of this country.

Again, I am attempting to do what is right to provide a better future for the next generation.

Is citizenship our most valuable asset, one achieved on the basis of an orderly queue? Or will you continue to allow the government to tell you they cannot help the situation? Hold them accountable, now.

Talking about "civil war" isnt' "heavy intellectual thinking." It's children playing army.

We sometimes agree. Not this time. Tell that to Kosovo. Ask him how fun their reindeer games are out there.

abandoning America and its people to the invading alien armies and to the enemy within in the hope of saving their own skins from the coming horror. That time is fast approaching "the day of the horror," which is less than a generation away.

Is this gonna be as bad as the "Y2K horror"? Do I need to buy dried fruit and build a bunker?

We should have closed the borders years ago. It may be too late.

I am so tired of your snide remarks on these threads where true American's are concerned about our country. Give me a break. What do you use for your comments here, a PeeWee Herman Joke Book? You consistently aren't interested in discussing things on a mature level and if you aren't a disruptor you do a good job of imitating one. Give us a break!

TY for your hard work on this issue. It's our Number 1 Threat, IMHO. The border is our number one:
1. bio/chem threat
2. nuke threat
3. drug running threat
4. crime threat in general
5. uninformed voter threat

What the hell is "mature" about a bunch of guys, many of whom are sitting in their basements in their underwear, talking about "civil war"?

"Civil war" has nothing to do with "being concerned about their country."

All one can do is laugh.

He would just run more counter ads calling us racist and xenophobes.

Sticks and stones. I think that tired, overused tactic has pretty much lost it's effectiveness. If anyone wants to call me a racist or xenophobe, that's perfectly fine with me. They're just simple words anyway.

Even the people here on FR are so wedded to Bush that it is obscene. During the Clinton years, these same people raged at the clinton supporters, how they could be so dumb etc etc.

I am In total agreement with you. Don't they realize that the laws that are going into affect by GW will be there for the next party in office ??? Ahem, like Hellary and company ? Oh, you think it cannot happen ? Think again. Crazier things have happened, crazier than that !

No it hasn’t. Congress uses it everyday.

The Dog & Pony Show at the border that Komrades Kyle, McKain, Kolbe and that Mexican guy put on last week was really pathetic!

I'm remembering all the times Kyl has been a guest or guest host on our local Phoenix Rush radio station. Callers pounded Kyl for the border thing and why nothing significant was being done. He just weasled out of the calls and the callers were hurried off the line right quick!

Mary Landrieu was re-elected yesterday because Louisiana voters think she can help their state better than the Republican could have. Maybe so ... what about that sugar deal that Bush has with the Mexican government that would shut out or hurt a centuries-old Louisiana industry?? I was disappointed to see Landrieu win, but with friends like Bush, who needs enemies?

What a shame.

"I came to the conclusion a long time ago that our president and most of those in congress have no intention of putting an end to illegal immigration and while I have various theories as to why this may be so I won't go into those here."

The evidence certainly supports your conclusion. But would you mind going into some of your theories as to why? I just want to know WHY would they willingly allow this?

My one theory is this: Those in power figure that the US is doomed anyway since we'll be bankrupt (literally not be able to pay the bills, and cannot print more dollars without the currency collapsing on world markets), so we're better off easing into a global environment; the NWO.

I just can't imagine self-destructing like this.
