Top officials at the Department of Homeland Security recently revealed that arrests for child sex crimes during the first two years of Operation Predator have exceeded 6,000 and 85 percent of them are criminal immigrants.
Operation Predator is Immigration and Customs Enforcement's comprehensive initiative to safeguard children from foreign national pedophiles, international sex tourists, Internet child pornographers and human traffickers. Operation Predator evolved out of ICEs mission to find and deport illegal aliens, particularly those with criminal records. The majority of the arrests under Operation Predator - roughly 85% - have involved foreign nationals in this country whose child sex crimes make them removable from the United States. By matching immigration databases with state Megans law directories, ICE agents have arrested more than 1,800 registered sex offenders.
Since Operation Predator began on July 9, 2003, the initiative has resulted in 6,085 child predator arrests throughout the country - an average of roughly 250 arrests per month and eight arrests per day. While arrests have been made in every state, the most have occurred in these states: Arizona (207), California (1,578), Florida (255), Illinois (282), Michigan (153), Minnesota (190), New Jersey (423), New York (367), Oregon (148) and Texas (545).
Operation Predator also has an important international component, as leads developed by domestic ICE offices are shared with ICE Attaché offices overseas and foreign law enforcement for action. To date, leads shared by ICE with foreign authorities have resulted in the arrest of roughly 1,000 individuals overseas.
With an average of nearly 250 child sex predator arrests per month, ICE's Operation Predator has emerged as one of most successful efforts ever launched to protect America's children. In enforcing the nation's immigration laws, ICE is systematically targeting those who pose the greatest threats, including criminal aliens who prey on our children.
Some recent ICE arrests involving criminal aliens who committed child sex crimes include Julio Cesar Rabago-Magana, a Mexican man who raped a four-year-old child in the basement of Mercado Central in Minneapolis, Minn. Rabago-Magana pleaded guilty Oct. 23, 2002 to first-degree criminal sexual conduct. After serving his criminal sentence, he was arrested by ICE agents at his St. Paul home on March 3, 2005, and deported six days later.
To date, more than 2,100 of these foreign-born predators have been removed from the United States to their home nations. As part of this process, ICE advises the host nation governments about the criminal histories of each sex predator it is deporting to their nations. ICE also issues Green Notices through Interpol in appropriate cases. The Green Notice provides information on career criminals who have committed, or are likely to commit, offenses in several countries.

Read the lead-in, then nit pick,
This does not surprise me. No wonder the ACLU has come in support of illegal aliens. I'd bet a good percentage of those who claim to support illegal aliens out of "humanitarian concerns" also support NAMBLA.
Crappy ILLEGAL bump!
If you don't play the game you automatically lose the game.
Wait a minute, Operation Predator is a program to go after immigrants who are child predators. Why is it any surprise 85% are immigrants. It's like proncouncing that speed traps usually catch drivers. Am I missing something?
True. For example, conservatives lost the game when they let the environmentalist wackos rename swamps "wetlands" and jungles "rain forests."
I caught an old Dennis Miller HBO show replay the other night. His suggestion:
"Castrate them all, and NAMBLA would stand for The North American My B*lls Lack Attachment society...They wouldn't even have to change the stationary.."
Besides being funny in a smart way, he's right, as in correct and conservative.
You sound like you have no problem with illegal criminal activity, or am I misreading your posts?
"Castrate them all..." - Dennis Miller
Actually, I would prefer to hang them, or use Ol' Sparky. Rape, kednapping, and murder all carried the death penalty, until the middle of this century. Then we became "enlightened", after such things as sodomy were deemed legally, if not socially, acceptable.
With the advent of the 60's "feel good", ME movement, sex was glamorized and FREE sex promoted. FREE sex, of course isn't free...
"Wait a minute, Operation Predator is a program to go after immigrants who are child predators. Why is it any surprise 85% are immigrants. It's like proncouncing that speed traps usually catch drivers. Am I missing something?"
85% are "criminal" immigrants - as in known criminal histories.
Exactly...I was about to post this.
Sorry to burst the bubble, but just go to your law enforcement data base on Sexual Predators and the MAJORITY are good old fashioned home grown Americans.
This is just a report on a project that targets immigrants.
Regardless of what the figures say (figures lie, liars figure) we are seeing way too many cases of sexual abuse at the hands of illegal immigrants.
This just shows that the problems we face with illegal immigration in America are multi-faceted and affect us in the areas of crime, the economy, national security, culture, labor, healthcare...the list goes on and it shouldn't.
Isn't that the truth, especially with our dumbed-down education.

Yes. Ain't that great?
This website lists the age of consent for quite a few countries.
ONE is TOO MANY!

We just feel anger inside, and do nothing to remedy the situation.
