Two possible candidates for President have written on this subject before me. Im aware of their contributions. I wont name them; their publicity is their business. I had decided to write my own take on this subject as soon as I heard about the Newark murders.
Mr. Carranza has just pleaded not guilty to the execution-style murders of two young men and one woman in Newark, New Jersey, and to the attempted murder of the sister of one of the slain men. She survived. She identified him. That, his fingerprint at the scene, plus the fact that two of his juvenile accomplices have turned states evidence, means it is 99.9% sure that this man did it, and that he will be convicted.
Why did I call him Mayor, Governor, Congressman, Judge and President? Carranza is never going to be elected or appointed to any such position. In fact, despite the best efforts of the New Jersey establishment, his only achieved high position will probably be a seat in that states electric chair. But what he stands for is already in all of those positions.
Carranza is an illegal alien from Peru, who snuck into the US. He has been repeatedly arrested, for serious and vicious crimes. But due to a series of failures at the local, state and federal level, he was loose, on the streets, in the US, and able to commit these crimes. And the political attitudes which allowed these murders to occur ARE present in the President of the United States, a majority of the Senators, a substantial number of the Members of Congress, and a sadly large number of Governors of states, Mayors of cities, including the Mayor of Newark who now proclaims that Enough is enough, and says We shouldnt play politics with this situation.
Whenever any politician says, Dont play politics with [whatever], that really means, dont hold me to account for my own mistakes. And, what about the judges? Well, so far two federal judges, one near Hazleton, Pennsylvania, and the other near Farmers Branch, Texas, have ruled that those two city councils dont have the right to pass laws to protect their citizens from being robbed, raped, murdered, by illegal aliens, inside their own towns.
All of these politicians, and judges, have blood from Carranzas hands, on their hands. And as long as Congress, state legislatures, and cities fail to act, there will be more blood on more hands. The most obvious blood will be on the hands of city leaders who welcome the invasion of illegals like Los Angeles and New Haven, for example.
Before we talk about the apparent murderer, we should talk about the valuable lives that were thrown away in a Newark schoolyard.
Terrance Aeriel, Dashon Harvey, Iofemi Hightower were killed. Aerials sister Natasha, was shot, but survived. Who were these young men? They were the future of Newark, and of our nation. They had beaten the odds. In a city where a majority of students drop out rather than graduate, they graduated.
In a city were a small fraction of students go to college, all had gotten into Delaware State College. As others said, they were good kids. In a city where crime is rife among young black men, they had no criminal records, no involvement in drinking, drugs or gangs. Two of them were involved in the Colleges marching band. Friends from elementary school days, theyd been in bands before the discipline and the involvement gave their lives purpose.
Some of them worked with other teenagers at a youth center. One was about to graduate with a degree in psychology. By any measure, these were fine young people.
These are the lives that were wiped out in an instant. Shot in the backs of their heads as they knelt against a wall in a schoolyard near their homes. Petty robbery was the apparent motive for the killings, though an even worse motive may come out later.
The apparent leader of the gang that killed these men, Jose Carranza, had been previously arrested for 31 counts of rape against a 5-year-old girl, and threats to murder her parents if they testified against him. He had also been arrested for a bar fight. He carried a fake Social Security card. His most recent arrest was for the rapes. He was not given a bail high enough to keep him off the streets. Newark authorities didnt bother to inform Immigration about this defendant who faced charges that would justify deportation, if proven.
This is not an isolated event. Every week there are reports of Americans dying at the hands of illegal aliens. This slaughter will continue until cities, states, and the nation begin to act effectively to end this reign of death. Until then, Jose Carranza IS your President, Governor, Congressman, Mayor and Judge.

I'm fairly certain that y'all will appreciate this column, and its condemnation of local, state and federal officials who are crontributing to the problem of illegal immigration, not to its solution.

Great commentary, great post on one of the most burning issues of the day. Thanks.
Your wife's birthday wish was to have you on the road?
;^)
Had enough yet?
Blessings...

In plain terms, a comment like yours is my paycheck for the week, and I deeply appreciate it.

“Whenever any politician says, Dont play politics with [whatever], that really means, dont hold me to account for my own mistakes.”
This is so true. Even after countless atrocities have been created by these repeat offenders, our politicians still feel the need to provide harbor for these lawbreakers. All we get is rhetoric, and no action.
—great one, CB—have a good trip—
Bump.
Bottom line; This SOB's illegal presence alone should have produced deportation. Great summation of why this will happen again Billybob (R, NC)
Regards
That's the money line right there. Have a great time, thanks for your all of columns.
Until then, Jose Carranza IS your President, Governor, Congressman, Mayor and Judge.
Powerful commentary.
Great column, great post.
Excellent, I will pass this on!
Yes, and meanwhile; innocent Americans are being harmed while our government is refusing to acknowledge any of it.
Listened to Rush with Rove today and not a word about illegals. Rove also had the gall to say many people in top government gave personal sacrifice to serve. That is complete baloney. They have the best health care; nice places to live; trips, cars,relatives have jobs if they want etc. on our dime and no doubt will cash in when they return from their jobs.
Sorry, but it really makes me mad.
Sould be retire from their jobs; plus a pension. All the American people did was hand over the money. sarcasm

Still preaching to the choir?
I don’t know what it will take to get American focused and acting on the right solutions to our problems....
