I’m certainly not trying to suggest that illegals are the only drunk drivers on the roads, but it does seem that we have an inordinate amount of them here in NM. They cause a lot of injuries and deaths that could be avoided by simply having a government that takes its responsibility of protecting our borders and upholding our laws seriously. They are people that shouldn’t be here driving at all, much less here driving drunk. In addition to driving drunk, illegals aren’t known for having insurance. That was one of the excuses for giving them their Richardson licenses, so they could get insurance, and be responsible. No such luck with that plan.

Whenever an illegal alien kills someone in a drunk driving accident or something similar, here’s what I recommend:
What can we do about it? Here’s my standard post.

RICO —Citizen Recourse

Private persons and entities may initiate civil suits to obtain injunctions and treble damages against enterprises that conspire to or actually violate federal alien smuggling, harboring, or document fraud statutes, under the Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO). The pattern of racketeering activity is defined as commission of two or more of the listed crimes. A RICO enterprise can be any individual legal entity, or a group of individuals who are not a legal entity but are associated in fact, and can include nonprofit associations.

Here’s what I’ve been pushing: it’s time to file Racketeering, Influencing, and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) lawsuits.

RICO lawyers could turn it around in a few years and MAKE MONEY at the same time. I’m surprised they haven’t done it already.

In the absence of enforcement, we can get the word out in the meantime that there is money to be made in filing RICO lawsuits against employers who hire illegal aliens like this jerk.

Employers would have no trouble shutting down the border if they could get sued by someone under the RICO statutes for hiring these people in the first place. The next time an illegal alien kills someone in a drunk driving accident or somesuch thing, I’m going to point out that the victim’s family might be able to seek compensation from the employer under these statutes in the hopes that it would catch on. If this did catch on, would see such a swift backlash against illegal immigration that no employer would go near these people and they’ll all simply want to go back home.

Zakeet,
The ABQ Journal cropped the picture they put on their front page. The front page picture was the one you posted. The actual picture is shown below and it is even more heart wrenching:

I had already seen the whole picture earlier.

My blood is still boiling.

The primary sworn duty of every elected officer in this country is to protect the lives of the people.

The responsibility for this horror rests on virtually our entire political class, in both "major" parties.

Throw all the oath-breaking bums out. They have abdicated any legitimate right to govern us.

One of the primary charges leveled against King George III in the Declaration of Independence:

"He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us."
