Thread: Jamiel Shaw Gang Killing Enrages Los Angeles

Report From Occupied America (contd.): Jamiel Shaw Gang Killing Enrages Los Angeles—Bratton, Villaraigosa Play For Time

By Brenda Walker

If there is anything that reveals America's moral rot stemming from the loss of law and borders, it is the protection of criminals to the endangerment of the public.

Among the violent crimes that devastate American families, there is a category that is completely preventable—those committed by illegal aliens. If the borders were defended as the Constitution requires, then the crimes done by foreigners residing unlawfully would have been avoided. If cities and states would desist from pro-crime sanctuary polices, many violent deaths could be averted.

Yet politicians from Los Angeles to Washington continue to balk at the basic responsibility of protecting law-abiding citizens from predatory foreigners. On the contrary—illegals are emboldened by liberal sanctuary policies that cut them extra slack to pursue violence, drug dealing and theft.

Los Angeles’ Special Order 40 has been making life easier for foreign criminals since 1979 when it was instituted by Chief Darryl Gates and the City Council. As Heather Mac Donald testified before a Congressional committee April 13, 2005, (Immigration and the Alien Gang Epidemic: Problems and Solutions):

“Sanctuary laws, present in such cities as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Austin, Houston, and San Francisco, generally forbid local police officers from inquiring into a suspect’s immigration status or reporting it to federal authorities. Such laws place a higher priority on protecting illegal aliens from deportation than on protecting legal immigrants and citizens from assault, rape, arson, and other crimes.



“Let’s say a Los Angeles police officer sees a member of Mara Salvatrucha hanging out at Hollywood and Vine. The gang member has previously been deported for aggravated assault; his mere presence back in the country following deportation is a federal felony. Under the prevailing understanding of Los Angeles’s sanctuary law (special order 40), if that officer merely inquires into the gangbanger’s immigration status, the officer will face departmental punishment.â€

Excellent article.

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism - ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power."

I think these two movie vids say how we all feel about this:

My message to the elected officials of LA is this, how many people have to die before you're willing to recognize there's a problem? 100? 1000? Please give us a number so we won't "annoy" you again with our petty concerns about having our loved ones shot in cold blood by foreign invaders from within our own neighborhoods.

VDare has so many links within their articles but thought this one was worth pointing out that shows the LA City Council's 'mug shots.'

Quite frankly, I don't think they care. Well, no......I take that back. The reconquista Mexican loyalists don't care. If the others do, you'll never hear them say it.

IMO what we're seeing here is a case of some folks who may have been elected to the council with perfectly honest intentions of turning it around. Once in, however, my guess is that they were intimidated and threatened. Perhaps eventually paid off.

There are forces at work in CA that go far beyond plain and simple corruption by little people greedy for wealth and power in order to feel important and I don't know how many more times the likes of the Mayor and his cronies have to say it before anyone will believe them.

They are loyal to Mexico, working for the government of Mexico, solely in the best interests of that country and helping to achieve the final goal of that foreign government. And they will achieve that by any means necessary. They will also go out of their way to protect even gang members who are not only a business concern for Mexico but may also have the additional role of combatants should the need ever arise to protect what's been established in CA from any attempt by the US to end it.

I also don't think that the seriousness of the situation is lost upon those in our government but that they don't know what to do about it without a small war breaking out on their hands.
