Illegal Immigration

Why does it seem that our government is doing everything it can to keep our southern border open? Or to put it another way, doing very little to aggressively secure our borders? To me it is beyond logic.

Maybe to understand this we need to understand more about modern American politics.

Many politicians, whose campaigns live or die on financial contributions made by special interest are not altruistic, they scratch your back as long as you scratch theirs. I should know. When I carried the flag for the Republicans in 2006 for the 47th Assembly District, I was told with no uncertain terms that I would vote whichever way they told me to vote or they would fund my democratic opponent’s campaign. Boy did that open my eyes.

When I was introduced to the long line of lobbyist and special interest groups they all had the same question: What are my three main issues? And knowing exactly what each of them (restaurant, Indian casinos, agriculture and banking to name a few) wanted to hear I instead told them what my constituents wanted me to tell them; illegal immigration, the economy and education, in that order. I told them that these three issues could be greatly improved by one over arching solution. SECURING THE BORDER.

Chris Simcox, a co-founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, has emerged as one of the preeminent spokespersons against illegal immigration. Put aside the negative consequences to our economy, it is the human toll that drives this man. Drug lords are smuggling their product over the border on the backs of foreign nationals. Women and children are being trafficked across the border as sex slaves. Humans are stuffed into vans and driven for days without stopping for water or bathroom breaks in the heat of summer… many don’t make it. Lax border security and local laws, like SpecialOrder40, attract the Mexican Mafia that fill Los Angeles streets with violent gang members that outnumber our police force ten to one. What is it about our politicians that make them behave they way they do? Is it money or are they just worried about their own parcel of power? I think its both.

Chris Simcox knows first hand, for the last four years he has witnessed all of this in his home state of Arizona. He is a patriot and is willing to sacrifice himself for our country to do what is right. We all have got to realize that this is a non-partisan failure with politicians on both sides of the aisle to blame, (although the left has more at stake supporting an open border policy).

The only way to make this problem go away is to secure the border, reform our antiquated immigration policies and enforce the laws. Democrats want “cheap” votes and more dependents on the doll and big business want “cheap” labor to improve their profit margins. But “cheap” isn’t cheap it costs the American taxpayer dearly, it raise the cost of all insurance especially healthcare, it clutters up our justice system and it adds a ton of cars on our freeways adding to the CO2 output and frustration to bonafide citizens. Couple all this with the human toll and what do you get? Either an inefficient, confused or corrupt government. Chris Simcox has been the on the vanguard in the fight to preserve the sanctity of the land which the U.S. Constitution has jurisdiction.

That is why we need to support his program, which has had hundreds of volunteers on border watch for 289 consecutive days. They have spotted 30,962 Illegal aliens breaking our laws, they have rescued 329 illegal aliens that were in some sort of distress, and they have been responsible for 13,769 intruder apprehensions from 26 countries confirmed by Border Patrol.

If you can’t make it to the meeting then please click here to find out how you can help Chris keep up the pressure on our politicians to do the RIGHT THING.

So let us grab this opportunity and start pushing our American values of God, Country, Family, Free Markets, and a strong Military through the media and onto the desks of our politicians. This is what they are waiting for – every great idea has come from the people not the politicians -- we are what makes our country great not government.

Join us the Wednesday evening to discus Illegal Immigration with Chris Simcox.
