Thread: Salisbury Post, KILLING ON OUR HIGHWAYS

A friend of mine sent this email.


I should preface this by mentioning that the Salisbury Post is not a
conservative paper. The editorial board is pretty fair but they do
tilt left. I applaud them for going where papers such as the New York
(Treason) Times would never go. The American people have had it with
illegal aliens killing our citizens and we want action now! Kudos to
the Salisbury Post!

Editorial: Too many outrages

Does anyone have to list reasons the U.S. government should beef up
immigration enforcement in North Carolina? Here's a start:

* Leeanna Newman and her unborn child, Bianca Cheyenne — Dead after a
car driven by an illegal alien (already twice deported, with a long
criminal record and several aliases) crashed into their vehicle in
Landis on Feb. 6. Police say he was driving drunk.

* Dwayne Braswell and his 9-year-old son, Jerry — Burned to death
March 4 in Clayton when a car ran a stop sign and crashed into their
rig, making it flip. Police have charged a man who is an illegal alien
with a long criminal record, including two convictions in the last
five years for driving while impaired.

* A pedestrian on I-40 in Raleigh — Dead after being hit by the
drunken driver of a Chevy van, police say. An illegal alien, the
driver had a blood alcohol level of .12 and two previous convictions
for driving while impaired.

* Mount Holly teacher Scott Gardner — Killed in a 2005 crash caused by
a drunken driver, an illegal alien with four previous convictions for
driving while impaired.

It's a miracle the list doesn't include anyone killed by the immigrant
man charged with driving drunk Monday after he sped down the
interstate at 95 mph and then tore through the eastern part of Rowan
County. Maybe that's why he and his passenger laughed when officers
arrested them: They'd been lucky. Or maybe — more likely — they were
just drunk.

This is an outrage.

The multiple drunken driving convictions alone insult every law-
abiding citizen's sense of right and wrong. Police say all of the
drivers charged in these incidents were driving while their licenses
were revoked. A law that allows repeat offenders the freedom to
blithely get behind the wheel again has serious gaps.

Add to that the fact that these individuals were already breaking the
law by just being here, and the public is practically convulsed with
rage.

One Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent interviewed by The News
& Observer after the Braswells' death in Clayton said his office lacks
the resources to respond to every drunken driving case that may
involve someone here illegally, and that DWI cases are not considered
a matter of national security. "We go after the worst of the worst,"
he said.

Granted, a person driving drunk doesn't register as high on the
disaster scale as a plane crashing into the World Trade Center, but
what if that driver ran into a school bus? While many law-abiding
Hispanics have immigrated legally into the United States, young men
who slip into the country illegally, drink too much and have no
respect for drunk driving laws have poisoned U.S. attitudes toward all
immigrants. That, too, should be considered an outrage, especially
within the Hispanic community.

Thanks go to U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Dole for joining in the call for more
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in the state and for
joining Sen. Richard Burr in reintroducing the Scott Gardner Act,
which would mandate deportation of illegal immigrants arrested for
driving while impaired. This is a real problem that needs real
solutions. If the ICE thinks it has more important things to do, then
immigration enforcement in the United States is a total joke.

NC Senator Burr just introduced the Senate version of the Scott Gardner Act this week, and NC Senator Elizabeth Dole is a cosponsor.

A big thanks to Senators Burr and Dole!!!!!

Ask your Senators and Representative to cosponsor the Scott Gardner Act!

Will do!

Yeah, well tell that to the dead mother and unborn baby. Tell that to the father and his 9 year old son that will never attend high school or sing in another Christmas play. Are Americans really this expendable? We are slaughtered on the highways by invaders and this is not a National security issue? Are you kidding me?
