“LEVIN SURGE!!
You know what to do...~!”

Will do my best at making those calls and emailings. John Warner and Jim Webb are my senators, and we know this message will be a tough sell. Bob Goodlatte, my representative, will be responsive, I’m sure.

When I called, to complain about La Raza receiving MY TAX DOLLARS, I told them NO GROUP working just to benefit a specific ethnicity should receive tax funds.

Call and email "tough sell" and "responsive" lawmakers with daily FR news reports of illegals involved in successive and recurrent crime waves. Don't comment---just send the news reports. A great way to let lawmakers know what constituents face everyday.

Here's one horrendous story to disseminate on the Hill (this atrocity has enraged America):

In Newark, New Jersey, three innocent young college students were tragically murdered, and another was brutalized. One of the suspects Jose Carranza, an illegal immigrant----was previously arrested on multiple occasions (had 31 counts of child rape against him) and, rather than being deported, was set free by the Newark sanctuary city judicial system. This is the tragic result of sanctuary city policies that protect illegals.

LINE-UP OF EVIL These three criminals mutilated their victims w/ machetes, then shot them execution-style. Carranza from Peru is also a child rapist (let off scot-free); another is from Honduras.

NOTE: Machetes are the signature weapons of violent MS-13 gangs from South America who now operate in 42 states according to the FBI.

NEWARK FIENDS FIRST FAILED AT SEX ATTACK
By AUSTIN FENNER NY POST August 23, 2007

The thugs who shot four college students in Newark reportedly preceded their sick attack by trying to sexually assault their two female victims. The group of six assailants - who shot two men and a woman dead and wounded another woman with machetes---failed in their attempt at a sexual attack, and then decided to kill their victims, according to 1010 WINS radio. Six suspects have now been charged in the Aug. 4 atrocity, in which the victims were blasted execution-style.

Yesterday, a family member of one of the slain victims described the level of savagery of the attack. He said the thugs used a machete to hack their victims.

"They cut my niece's face off," said John McClain, who is Iofemi Hightower's great-uncle, and the chaplain of the Newark Police Department. "They cut her from cheek to cheek. They left her head hanging." McClain said the mortician had to work for three days to put his grand-niece's face back together. "Most people couldn't tell, when he was done, but the family could tell," he said. --SNIP--

While at the same time the Boy Scouts are vilified.

La Raza should not get federal money that is used, in part, to lobby the federal government, and to lobby Congress to pass legislation that favors members of its group. Nor should it be given federal money to lobby for legislation that works to the disadvantage of the general, law-abiding, tax-paying public. Nor should it get federal money so it can lobby Congress for even more federal money that it can use to .... lobby Congress.

BTTT!
