"In frustration over illegal aliens' immunity from law enforcement, a black citizen threatens to take law into his own hands. In Texas, a citizen group stopped illegal aliens at gun-point and held them until arrival of Border Patrol officers.
Sanctuary cities and State officials seem content to take no action. But in more realistic venues, such as Texas, why not deputize citizens who wish to participate voluntarily in guarding the border?"

Illegal Immigration Is A Powder Keg In LA

My oldest daughter lives in Los Angeles, a short walk from MacArthur Park. She’s not political. Not that politics is bad, but the practicalities of surviving in a tough city requires her to be no-nonsense about what’s important to her success.
I’m convinced she knows nothing about Beto, Bernie, Biden, Booker or Buttigieg. But living at ground zero of one of the most sanctimonious of sanctuary cities, she knows more about the perils of illegal immigration than all of them combined. Politics was dumped at her doorstep and, like many, she’s cracking under the weight.
Her message? “The situation in LA is unbearable.”
Far outside the political incubators of Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris, Eric Swalwell, Adam Schiff and Maxine Waters – all of them California lawmakers – my daughter bears the brunt of the raw political debris created by deeply devious politicians who excrete pious lies about how much they care about minorities.
In utter frustration, my daughter texted me a video that she filmed near her apartment. I was shocked at what I saw: Cluster after cluster of illegals lined along public streets selling anything they could find, spread over raggedy blankets or anything else they could use to form a boundary for their slipshod sidewalk stores.
“They are above the law,” she wrote. “How can you sell so much food on the street without a permit? Without the grading system? I didn’t know you could have a business and not pay taxes. They're spreading, too. It used to be just several blocks but if you turn the corner, they’re further down than ever before. Both sides of the street. There are so many of them. This! Is! Their! Country!!! Lol.” ……….
…….Trojan Horse rhetoric falls on deaf ears for the people who are stuck in the Twilight Zone of illegal immigration. They have no political connections. They have no voice. They’re unsophisticated in the twisted political language that defies the realities on the ground. They are placated, marginalized and ignored, and they’re growing angrier as they realize that no one speaks for them.
No one except Trump.
One black man wearing a MAGA cap and a red Trump-Pence T-Shirt told county leaders that he’s ready to take the law into his own hands.
“Make California Great Again!” he said in a County of Los Angeles Board of Supervisors meeting about SB 54, California’s sanctuary state bill. “We gonna handle this! If you guys don’t, I will! And if Mr. Trump would have lost, I would have organized some brothers, and we [would] put all your asses under … citizens arrest (pointing to a group of pro-illegal immigrant protesters).”
At a different meeting about the bill, long-time activist Lupe Moreno offered deeply emotional comments about the murder victims of illegal immigrants.
“Our beautiful children have been sacrificed at the altars of elected officials and non-profits; as we could see how many non-profits are making money off of our dead children … We want you to stop this now! Now! I have it on good authority that our side wins because you have weeping mothers, not only in California, but throughout the United States. Stop trying to blur the difference between legal and illegal. There’s a big difference! We’re Americans!”
…….Partly to spite Trump, California politicians have forced illegal immigration down the throats of their most vulnerable citizens. And while they clippity-clop around the country promising to bring La-La Land to the entire nation, they’re telling their most powerless citizens to “shut up and get over it” while they make them second-class citizens at the taxpayer's expense.
From a safe distance, California politicians are playing with matches on top of a political powder keg. Chatting with my daughter from ground zero, you get the feeling that it wouldn’t take much for things to explode, not only in LA but across the nation."
