There are many forms of terrorism.
When million upon millions of criminal illegal aliens invade our nation, spit on our sovereignty, fill our jails, choke off our socail services, drive the wages down, while driving taxes up, jam are already over crowded classrooms, standing room only in many big city ERs, while many of our trama centers have shut down due to illegal aliens failing to pay for treatment, etc etc etc.
So yes, these are terrorist that have invaded our country illegally. We are suppose to be a nation of laws.
If we fail to control our borders and immigration, we will lose our country.
Don't get me wrong, I care nothing (and I've posted on other threads similar sentiments) for illegal immigrants.
However, two things stand out to me :
It's not for the local PDs to determine if one is here illegally or not. It gives me the creeps to even think that a police officer could try and force you to prove yourself a citizen at random checks. When you put that much power in the hands of a group of people who already have a large amount of power, your living in a police state.
Our police department is stretched thin as it. We had three murders wednesday (I know, not a lot, I've lived in Houston). They mentioned in the paper how thin the police department was spread dealing with those three murders (which is a rarity). Spreading our police department even thinner for something like this makes no sense.
I would rather take my chances with illegal immigrants, than having my local police officers pulled off the line, to go checking people's papers. I'm not afraid of illegal immigrants like some. I've been around them all my life. It's the way it is in a border state. If I feel my life is in danger from some illegals, I can start carrying a firearm, I have a concealed permit.
The U.S. taxpayers spend $540 billion hard-earned dollars, every year, on Social Services. By the time you factor in the cost of supporting these illegal aliens into the cost of apples, you're not at 69 cents per pound, it's more like $6,900!
