Immigrants: Means to an Unscrupulous End
Means to an end … That’s what immigrants are to certain politicians, the current Bush Administration and certain U.S. government agencies, and even certain U.S. citizens.
Question: What is the “end”?
Answer: The same as it has been for centuries: political power, wealth and “job security”.
The ICE-police officers who employ Constitution-violating methods — or violate basic human rights via deception, harassment or coercion — are simply henchmen doing the Government’s dirty-work. The Govt. boys/girls-at-the-top — i.e., the actual decision-makers — would never:
- admit to defending policies or practices that “violate the Constitution”
- openly defend/back the actions of law-breaking “ICE-police Stormtroopers”
- issue search-and-seizure warrants, unless the alien was dangerous, felonious, a terrorist, etc.*
Immigration courts have turned a blind eye to illegal searches by frequently ruling that ICE can use illegally obtained evidence to deport non-criminal people.
Question: If we continue to allow the government to practice this way, how long before the government harasses U.S. citizens?
Answer: It has already begun. Here are just a few of many examples:
- Immigration Attorney Harassed by ICE at Home
- Lawsuit in NJ Against Illegal ICE Immigration Raids Across NJ
Do not let the government set-up creeping, totalitarian, Constitution-violating “regulations”. Contact Senators, Congress reps, and the White House directly and express your opinion.
*Immigrant search-and-seizure warrants should be issued on the same precedents as standard criminal warrants. Otherwise, such warrants are a waste of government resources and, hence, taxpayer dollars. There are over 12 million illegal immigrants in the U.S., and the vast majority are non-criminal. So…
Question: How can the U.S. Government justify spending billions of taxpayer dollars on expensive, FBI-like operations like ICE’s current National Fugitive Operations Program?
Answer: Because U.S. Citizens, through inaction, allowed this to happen. But it’s not too late!
