75% of criminals in California jails are illegal aliens. We are overwhelmed with these people. (their family values extending over into our border).

When the population of your city includes 1 million Mexicans + tens of thousands of illegals and the tax payers of San Diego supporting them with health care, education, etc. etc. into the mega millions of dollars a yrs. and many thousands here a year murder, drug cartels, gang bangers, and beheadings 20 miles south of me.

I am a ret. Legal Support Asst with the County Attys for many years and before that I was at Superior Court.
A large per cent of criminals are illegals costing us mega millions of dollars a year.

One killed a police officer in my county a few yrs ago
And one one the gang bangers just killed another police officer the other day leaving a widow and 2 month old son.

I live just north of the busiest border crossing in the world. 24 lanes of traffic backed up for miles each day and thousands each day on foot crossing.

Come here to the big city and find out what is going on before writing pie in the sky thinking

You assert that huge numbers of them are violent and dimented. I'd like to see the documentation for that - a link?

There has been much documentation on criminal illegal aliens here on FR. Following is from Homeland Security.

http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:6aHqWAxq1rwJ:www.ice.gov/doclib/pi/news/newsreleases/articles/060420washington_2.pdf+Chertoff+illegal+alien+criminals+cross&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=4&client=firefox-a

Goal one: identify and remove criminal aliens, fugitives and other immigration violators • Identify and remove incarcerated criminal aliens -- The prisons and jails in this country are estimated to book roughly 630,000 foreign-born nationals on criminal charges annually. There are more than 590,000 aliens at large in this country who are fugitives that have been ordered removed by an immigration judge. This number is increasing at a rate of more than 40,000 each year. ICE Fugitive Operations teams are charged with tasked with locating and arresting these fugitives. Since ICE was created in March 2003, these teams have arrested more than 42,000 aliens, of which 31,000 were fugitives.

Illegal Alien Crime Wave On April 7, 2005, the US Justice Department issued a report on criminal aliens that were incarcerated in federal and state prisons and local jails. In the population study of 55,322 illegal aliens, researchers found that they were arrested at least a total of 459,614 times, averaging about 8 arrests per illegal alien. Nearly all had more than 1 arrest. Thirty-eight percent (about 21,000) had between 2 and 5 arrests, 32 percent (about 18,000) had between 6 and 10 arrests, and 26 percent (about 15,000) had 11 or more arrests. Most of the arrests occurred after 1990. They were arrested for a total of about 700,000 criminal offenses, averaging about 13 offenses per illegal alien. One arrest incident may include multiple offenses, a fact that explains why there are nearly one and half times more offenses than arrests. Almost all of these illegal aliens were arrested for more than 1 offense. Slightly more than half of the 55,322 illegal aliens had between 2 and 10 offenses. CRIMINAL HISTORY More than two-thirds of the defendants charged with an immigration offense were identified as having been previously arrested. Thirty-six percent had been arrested on at least 5 prior occasions; 22%, 2 to 4 times; and 12%,1 time. Sixty-one percent of those defendants had been convicted at least once; 18%, 5 or more times; 26%, 2 to 4 times; and 17%, 1 time. Of those charged, 49% had previously been convicted of a felony: 20% of a drug offense; 18%, a violent offense; and 11%, other felony offenses. Twelve percent had previously been convicted of a misdemeanor. Defendants charged with unlawful reentry had the most extensive criminal histories. Nine in ten had been previously arrested. Of those with a prior arrest, half had been arrested on at least 5 prior occasions. Fifty-six percent of those charged with a reentry offense had previously been convicted of a violent or drug-related felony. By contrast, under half of those charged with alien smuggling, a third of those charged with unlawful entry, and just over a quarter those charged with misuse of visas and other charges had previously been arrested. The criminal histories of these defendants were generally less extensive: more than 70% had been previously arrested fewer than 5 times.

Good afternoon.
"Good!"

We should still deport him. If we dump his leaking corpse just across the border we don't have to bury him and others might get the message.

Good afternoon.
"be sure to post all the times crimes are committed by citizens, too."

Why? This thread is about a murderous illegal alien who ran head long into justice.

I didn't say anything at all - I asked Dante to provide some information regarding an assertion. You and others have drawn conclusions about my POV on this matter out of knee-jerk reactions. Can't help you with that.

I repeat that the assertion has been made that a huge number of 'them' are violent and demented. I've read the quote below as well as the link and there's no question (even without that information) there is a HUGE problem with illegal aliens in this country. But you're answering a question I didn't ask. I don't disagree - we have a serious problem with illegal aliens - but again that's not what I was discussing with Dante3.

Look on the 10 Most Wanted lists of any major California county - you'll see that the majority of the names are hispanic. Illegals make up over one-third of prisoners in Mexifornia.

Or one could look at the FBI's wanted-for-murder list, which includes the nationality of the individuals. From my count, 41% are from Mexico and Central America. I wonder what percentage of, say, Mexico's most wanted lists are populated by Americans or Canadians!

And I wonder what percentage of L.A.'s most wanted are illegals. I bet Villaraigosa would do anything in his power to keep the LAPD from including nationality on that list.

Check this LAPD website. 9 out of 10 of the most wanted are hispanic. http://www.lapdonline.org/top_ten_most_wanted

MECHAraigosa wants L.A. to continue as a "sanctuary city", and I think you're right about nationalities not being listed. In the prison population in California, hispanics are listed as white.

How many anchor babies he left behind?

All anchors should be on the end of a chain or rope.

No, I don't mean hang or drown the "babies"; I mean the babies should not be "anchors".

Gallegos was officially identified by the coroner.

Per Eric Leonard, KFI News, an off-duty cop had seen him buying a holster at a gun shop and a house was put under surveillance. Cops followed him from that house to the taco stand where the fatal gun battle ensued.

Also from KFI News, Gallegos was DEPORTED 3 times before, the last time in 1996. However he was arrested after that on weapons charges, battery and other crimes. He also filed a $5 million lawsuit for an arrest on a Texas warrant but that wasn't for him. The suit was dismissed as meritless.

Remember to thank President George W Bush for enforcing our borders. (/sarcasm)

Yeah; a misreading of the 14th Amendment, that has never been corrected by the courts.

Police officials say they believe the man is Oscar Gabriel Gallegos, 33,
but his identity cannot be officially confirmed until after a
coroner's inspection this morning.


You can almost hear the reporter saying "PLEASE DEAR JESUS...
let this poor, lovely man be a US Citizen or a legal resident!!!
I can't report that there are some illegals that actually are
dangerous criminals that shouldn't even be in the country".

OK, in fairness, he might be.
But how does a coroner determine if person is a citizen of a certain
country?

About the only way I can think of is if he was already incarcerated
and/or worked a job that required fingerprinting and/or a DNA sample.
