Americans pay price for illegal aliens

For the time being, let's forget about the financial drain on our resources - manpower, et al, that is being exacted upon American citizens by the flood of illegal aliens invading our nation, changing our language, smacking us in the face with their sneers and insults. Let's talk about the human cost - in deaths and lives altered beyond repair. The dragging death of a lady in Castle Rock, Colorado (see the Washington Times nation section for today, Man arrrested in Colorado dragging death) is just the latest in a long list of tragedies that Americans are made to bear from our government's desire to keep our borders open. A friend of mine several years ago was driving along a highway in Virginia. Her mother was in the passenger seat. They were hit head-on by an illegal alien who was drunk. When the dust cleared and my friend regained consciousness in the hospital, she learned that her mother was dead, killed by the injuries inflicted by a man our government had allowed to enter our country. My friend most probably will never marry. She will never be able to have children. She has lost an eye. Her walk is altered dure to injuries to one leg that resulted in many surgeries and a shortened leg. My friend's face, while looking relatively normal, is underneath the surface skin, a mass of metal and wires. Americans in some towns/cities are afraid to drive at night for the illegals evading arrest. The invasion must be stopped. Because, regardless of the fine men and women of the Border Patrol doing the best that they can, our officials are not doing all that they can do, American citizens are answering the call. In October, the Minutemen begin their month-long vigil. Check them out on the internet. If you can, join them; if you can't join them, try to support them. Remember, not all of the illegals are from Mexico. Many are from Indonesia, China, and the Middle East. The communities that are established here make good cover for whatever nefarious deeds many of the illegals choose to enact against our citizens.
