"They Also Kill People In Your Town": San Francisco Triple Murder Highlights Immigrant Crime Wave
By Brenda Walker

Here in the San Francisco Bay Area, there has been enormous shock and anger that a known MS-13 gangster with prior arrests for violent offenses could have been let loose on the streets by a grossly permissive sanctuary city policy.

Edwin Ramos was recently arrested for the triple murder of Tony Bologna, and his sons Michael and Matthew, in what is now described as a mistaken gang shooting.

This case is still roiling the city. It shows no sign of dying down. There is pure horror at such extreme governmental malpractice. Even San Francisco liberals expect the police to put the bad guys in jail—not fluff their pillows. There is dismay and surprise at how an obviously dangerous criminal alien like Edwin Ramos could be freed to cause such havoc.

There was also local outrage when it became known that San Francisco had sent Honduran crack dealers to comfy group living quarters to escape ICE and given them non-deportation flights home on the taxpayer's tab.

The combination of the two crime scandals this summer led many San Franciscans to wonder what sort of politically correct monstrosity City Hall had created when voters weren't paying attention.

The sad fact, however, is that heinous crimes committed by previously arrested illegal aliens are all too common throughout America.

The Bologna family has been devastated by their terrible loss. But they are not alone by any means. The many deaths from murder and drunk driving caused by foreigners who had already been in the hands of police are a shocking indictment of law enforcement and its interface with politics.

The cop on the street is usually a no-nonsense defender of order. But if the Chief of Police is a political appointment of City Hall (as many are, like the useless Heather Fong in San Francisco), public safety may be sacrificed for ideological ends.

The average busy citizen usually has no idea about the pervasiveness of illegal alien crime, because the MainStream Media would rather run daily sob stories portraying lawbreaker foreigners as victims. The only time the liberal press covers a crime committed by an illegal alien is when the offense is too horrific to be ignored—such as multiple murders. Reports of single deaths caused by illegal aliens usually get local coverage only. Additionally, the immigration status of criminals is systematically suppressed throughout the media. So the national pattern of foreigner mayhem is simply not recognized.

One case that did get noticed:

- the death of two teenaged girls, Allison Kunhardt and Tessa Tranchant, in Virginia Beach as they waited for the light to change at an intersection on March 30, 2007.

The killer was Alfredo Ramos, who was drunk at three times the legal limit and speeding as he smashed into the girls' car. He had been convicted of DUI two months previously, and his punishment at that time was a suspended sentence, a $250 fine and a requirement to attend an alcohol awareness program. There was no deportation, so Ramos remained in Virginia, enabling him to kill the girls.

A June 5 Washington Post story (A Tipping Point for Outrage, by Karin Brulliard), called the crime a "catalyst" for mobilizing citizen action against open borders and immigration permissiveness:

[quote]"’What happened in Virginia Beach is they woke up Saturday morning and realized not only do illegal immigrants work in your town, live in your town, but they also kill people in your town,’ then-Del. John J. Welch III (R-Virginia Beach) told reporters at the time.â€
