This is a GREAT example of how screwed up the government is in dealing with visa holders. Not till the last incident (only after 9/11) did the law enforcement and get clued in the guy was here illegally almost for 9 years.

What really gets me PO'ed is that if I want to buy a hunting rifle, I fill out the yellow sheet and have someone check on me in a matter of minutes. Maybe they should use the same idea to check on those ACTUALLY arrested with the INS computers. They have no problem CHECKING on American citizens who wish to legally own weapons.

It's just that "your" national government - particularly during the Klintons/Gore Regime - has seen the rights of foreigners, even ones here as illegal aliens, as outranking those of native-born Americans.

My mother - an elderly, native-born middle-class American - suddenly started getting dun letters from the IRS several years ago, threatening even criminal prosecution if she didn't immediately pay $700+ in back taxes; we took it to her tax lawyer - who called the local "problems resolution office" of the IRS, which replied that she didn't owe anything, to ignore the letters, and that they'd stop in several months. (Eventually they did stop.) During that time, did the INS spend 1% the resources hassling the estimated 700,000 illegal aliens here in North Carolina that the IRS spent hassling my innocent mother? (NO.)

Before Sept. 11, INS would get after illegal aliens - but only on fake-ID stuff, illegals convicted of other felonies, cases instigated by unions, bus lines specializing in moving illegals, or mass-scale hiring of illegals.

Do you really think this is all by accident? The name of the game is tyranny by any means necessary. The method is simple, for example importing terror (via unlimited mass immivasion by illegals, etc.) as a justification for tyranny. Another example is drugging up kids in schools, turning them into ticking time bombs, and then using the resulting carnage as a justification for more gun registration and anti-Second Amendment programs. It just goes on and on, but the goal is clear.

The new anti-terror laws just signed by President Bush pretty much wrap up the agenda. At this point anyone can be arrested for any reason, and then things get very bad from them after that. Did anyone notice that our public officials are now floating "trial balloons" about using torture against suspected terrorists? Remember when RICO laws and asset forfeture were only going to be used against gangsters? Does anyone else see a trend here?

God help us all, we have lost the nation our forefathers fought for, and we have become something very, very different indeed.

Have you not figured it out yet? We are only interested in harassing our own citizens. Illegal aliens and expired visa holders pose no threat to the New World Order. Only U.S. Citizens who might decide to exercise their Consitutional rights are a threat to the NWO.
