To the Editor:
Thanks to Oregon's governor it has happened again.
It was late in the summer of 2002 when two Catholic Sisters were raped and one, Sister Helen Chaska, was murdered. Those deeds were accomplished by an illegal alien. Who, you might ask, is keeping score. I, among others, am. With a recent Portland rape and murder of 15 year old Dani Countryman and the alleged confession by the Gamboa cousins, illegal aliens, it appears to have happened again.
There are many good people that are here illegally but unfortunately there are too many bad ones. Based on data from the U.S. Department of Justice Criminal Offender Statistics for 2001 and before, a case can be made that among those here illegally, crimes are four to five times more common than for the general population.
In terms of crimes committed, these cases are just the tip of the iceberg. Almost any day one can look at those locked up and see that far too many did not enter our nation legally. Many have committed countless minor crimes but state law prohibits the police from having them deported. Failure to help the federal government enforce immigration laws, being a sanctuary state, and policies of giving driver's licenses and countless other benefits to anyone that asks has made us a magnet state and I want it to stop immediately.

Regarding OR...
Not only has Mayor Potter of Portland been a big disappointment on the issue, so too, has Gov. Kulongoski (both Dems, from the urban area(s)).
One simple thing he could do tomorrow, would be to ensure that all state business be conducted in English - eg. no more 'bilingual' announcements, the provision of social services, English/Spanish Dept. of Justice jobs.
Don't take my word for it, check it out for yourself here:
http://www.oregonjobs.org - see how many have a "Bilingual" language requirement - or, even worse and more insidious, is a bilingual preference.
Hopefully, some concerted action by OFIR and associated people can at least get the AG (Attorney General) to enact similar policies as in NJ in the meanwhile to address serious crimes by illegals. That would at least begin to deal proactively with criminal illegals and fast track their removal from the US.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
