As you are
probably aware, on the evening of Monday June 8 an
illegal alien by the name of Zacaria Conces-Garcia
killed an 8-year-old girl and her mother in Brewster, NY
while drunk-driving. Here is the link to the story as
well as video of the monster responsible: [Mom,
child killed by alleged drunk driver,
WABC Eyewitness
News, June 9, 2009]
The reason
I write to you is because I as well as many of my fellow
citizens are sick, tired and angry of hearing this
happen so frequently. My heart goes out to the victim's
family. There has to be a way to get results from both
our officials and ICE. The status quo cannot and must
not be allowed to continue, regardless of what our
detractors may say.
I believe
that in the case of NYC and NYS, the elected officials
responsible as well as officials in ICE should be held
personally responsible for the deaths of all these
innocent people. Perhaps it is time for the victims'
families to come together in a class action suit against
those responsible for allowing these criminals (and in
the case of sanctuary cities,
welcoming
them to break our laws) to continue to live here
without any repercussions at the
taxpayers' expense.
I have
nothing against legal immigrants, I myself am one. My
parents and I immigrated from
Argentina
in the early 1970. We did it by the book, broke no laws
and in time became citizens and productive members of
our community. It angers me to no end when I hear or
read in the media about these criminals being referred
to as
"immigrants" when in fact they are not.
My elected
officials are useless (both parties, which at this point
have morphed into one
party).
I've called ICE numerous times. (In my case I have
personal reasons, because in 2005 the house next door
was sold to a Salvadorian landscaper who has turned the
home into a flophouse full of drunken dirty illegals and
lots of pregnant young ones as well. Nothing like seeing
someone defecating in broad daylight on ones shared
driveway. Last month eight of them were arrested for
MS-13
ties to a recent murder.)
I live in
Flushing, Queens
once a beautiful middle upper class neighborhood that is
being turned into a Third World dump. And it has become
a hotbed for Salvadorian illegals and MS-13—none of
which seems to matter to the elected officials. For a
brief period I was a US Border Patrol trainee, but
towards the end of my training I suffered an injury
which killed my aspirations of serving in a cause I
believed in. (That fact hasn't been helpful when
contacting ICE either).
I'm sorry
for this rant, but I've witnessed firsthand how damaging
our immigration system is.
