They're Just Hard-Working People, Lookng For A Job

There's no problem with the illegal importation of workers into these United States, and we're winning the War On Drugs:

"EAGLE COUNTY - Police arrested nine people Wednesday and are searching for four others who are believed to be selling cocaine.

The Eagle County Drug Task Force underwent a three-month undercover investigation, including multiple purchases of cocaine, before the arrests were made, according to a statement from the Eagle County Sheriff's Office.

Arrested Wednesday were Sergio Miguel Nunez, 23, of Avon; Salvador Escalera, 19, of Avon; Cosme Rodriguez Ruiz, 26, of Avon; Carlos Humberto Rodriguez, 27, of Avon; Carlos Omar Salasar Mondosa, 24, of Avon; Anthony Ray Smith, 19, of Eagle; Enrique Itduralde, 23, of Gypsum; Victor Fernandez, 20, of Edwards; and a 17-year-old juvenile male from Edwards. Each suspect has been charged with multiple counts of possessing and selling cocaine. Both crimes are felonies.

Bond was set at $20,000 for each suspect. All are believed to be illegal immigrants, and federal officials have placed an immigration hold on them.

Police are still looking for Orlando Tena, 30, of Edwards; Manolo Osomio Ruelas, 44 of Avon; Gilberto Varela Hernandez, 20, of Avon; and Javier Gutierrez, 33, of Edwards.

Anyone with information about the case, or about drug dealing in Eagle County may make an anonymous report by calling the task force at 328-8500 or Eagle County Crime Stoppers at 328-7007. Anyone leaving a tip may be eligible to receive $1,000. "

Nii-iice. It seems that the illegal trade in both humans and pharmacological contraband are some kind of a challenge to the law-givers. Whooda thunkit? But wait - I thought that illegal aliens are just hardworking people, "doing the jobs that even Blacks won't do?"

Resolution? Guard the borders and MAKE THE DRUGS LEGAL FOR THE IDIOTS THAT WANT TO POISON THEMSELVES.

Really, it's not rocket science. Any 14 year old who 1. Speaks English or Spanish with reasonable competency and was 2. Paying attention in Mrs. Addleson's 9th grade History Class last week will understand that: a.) We're being invaded and we're too stoopid to realize it and 2.) The "War On Drugs" will be as equally effective as the Vietnam Conflict was in preventing Pol-Pot from spreading Communism and murdering 3 million of his countrymen unless we fight to win, or quit.

We should quit the War On Drugs (the profits from contraband drugs fuels our enemies and degrades our abilites to fight a valid "war," the War on Terror, where we are fighting a measurable threat to domestic American security) and simply guard our borders against invasion from the south by removing the incentives to come to America. Let's start with subsidies - should any Mexican citizen be permitted any subsidy before any American citizen? Should we give free healthcare, child education, citizenship, or defacto rights to foreign nationals that couldn't care a whit if America lives or dies, when Americans are in need? Should we fight a "War On Drugs" or a "War On Terror" where both drugs AND terror can cross our borders by SIMPLY WALKING?

Here - lemmie answer that for ya - NO.

It is nice to see the problem and be able to come up with a solution. The problem then becomes how to implement said solution.

Of the two problems given, the easiest to solve is the illegal immigration issue. We already have laws in place that just need to be inforced, and angencies abound that just need to be given the correct orders. According to the latest polls,the people have the will and the government has a way, but the politicians have abbrogated their responsibilty to the people. What are we going to do? Vote you say. For who? None of my local politicians want to even touch this topic, and it seems that very few national level politicians want to either (excluding Tancredo and he's portrayed as a loon). What to do?

The drug issue is a way harder nut to crack. How many laws must be changed or done away with to make drugs legal? How do we deal with all those currently incarcerated for drug related crimes? How do we convince government agencies that rely on money for the drug war to validate their own existence to just shut down? I don't have any of these answers and I have never seen anybody try to tackle them rationally. I don't believe that we will see drugs made legal in the US in my lifetime, and mores the pity.

Wouldn't it be a good day in America if not even black kids in the "hood" wanted to sell drugs? So mexicans had to fill the gap? And all we had to do was stop immigration?
