Living Dangerously

Imagine living in a town where placing yourself on a ballot for city council opened you up to anonymous death threats. Imagine running for office and being told that the sitting "vice mayor" would take care of you with his "AK-47". Imagine a town where Mexican drug rings, Mexican mafia and Mexican street gangs ruled by fear. Imagine a town where politicians hold their fund raisers in a nightclub that features photos of Mexican drug smugglers. The town? It's called Cudahy, and it is located about 10 miles from downtown Los Angeles.

The story is told of this town in a LA Weekly report dated 02/21/07, "The Town the Law Forgot".

It is estimated that illegal immigrants murder 12 Americans every day. Another 13 Americans lose their life to illegal immigrants driving while intoxicated. That's over 9,000 Americans killed each year by illegal immigrants!

2,920 American children are victims of sexual abuse each year at the hands of these criminals!

The main stream media is hammering into us daily the death toll in the war on terror, but here we have a death rate nearly 15 times as much, and the media remains silent! Where is the outrage? Where is the anger at the 140,000+ illegal immigrants who are also sexual predators roaming our streets?

Kidnapping, murder, rape, child pornography and prostitution. You name it, and we got it. We can't blame all of our problems on illegal immigrants, but.... it sure doesn't help us solve our own problems when we just keep getting more people in that exacerbate them.

Is this where we are heading? Are we following the path of Los Angeles, Miami, Dallas? or will we stand up and resist this invasion?

There is still time to stop it, but will we? Or will our politicians keep giving away our country, one illegal immigrant at a time? And will we keep voting for those same politicians that promise to let other government's establish their claim to our land?
