Protest aerobics

"Here is the bottom line. So long as we have a law-and-order administration, law breakers are not welcome here. Until Congress changes our laws (and hopefully, they never will), ICE and Border Patrol, with an assist at times from local LEOs, will enforce those laws. The latter-day hippies can bitch and moan all they want, but the bottom line is this - as of today, illegal immigration is still illegal. It really is that simple."

I am not going to address the National Guard shooting which happened yesterday in Washington DC. I am going to wait for a while to see what else develops on that story first. But I am going to talk about the constant, non-stop protesting which takes place every single time ICE or Border Patrol agents attempt to take an illegal alien into custody. And most of the time, the latter-day hippies which are protesting need to be gassed.

I am missing the math here on why this is so complicated. It really is simple. You live in another country and want to immigrate here. Cool - there is a LEGAL process on how to do it. However, should you decide to ditch the LEGAL process and come here illegally, that breaks laws which our CONGRESS has passed. And badge carrying law enforcement officers of ICE and the Border Patrol, have the LEGAL jurisdiction and responsibility to arrest you and deport you. Period.

Yesterday, St. Paul Police had to lend an assist to the Feds who were going into a St. Paul neighborhood. Soon (as usual), the protest turned into an obstruction of justice issue with many of the latter-day hippies. Thus, some were gassed. Now, after exhibiting bad behavior (again), the latter-day hippies want the St. Paul Police investigated for excessive use of force to the hippies. Give me a flipping break!  

Here is the bottom line. So long as we have a law-and-order administration, law breakers are not welcome here. Until Congress changes our laws (and hopefully, they never will), ICE and Border Patrol, with an assist at times from local LEOs, will enforce those laws. The latter-day hippies can bitch and moan all they want, but the bottom line is this - as of today, illegal immigration is still illegal. It really is that simple.

As much as the latter-day hippies would like to pull this country off the cliff and into some kind of armed insurrection, our brave law enforcement, at times backed up with our brave National Guard members, will put themselves in harm's way to uphold our immigration laws. All the protest aerobics in the world that the wacky left want to do every time there is an enforcement action, will not deter or dissuade law enforcement from doing their sworn duty. Full stop, and end of story.
