The MSM has jumped on the recent spike in violence in Iraq and the horrible milestone of 4,000 deaths of our honorable miltary servicepeople. This is noteworthy and newsworthy. Although I'm wondering why the media goes silent on Iraq when things aren't quite as bad. (Okay, I'm not actually wondering. I know the media is against the war/Republicans and will only promote or suppress something that will hurt this effort.)
But why cannot someone tell of some truly horrible statistics of deaths in this country. There is suspiciously no federal statistics of deaths by illegal immigrants. World Net did an artcile about this: Twelve Americans are murdered every day by illegal aliens, according to statistics released by
Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa. If those numbers are correct, it translates to 4,380 Americans murdered annually by illegal aliens.
That's 4,380 ANNUALLY! Why isn't there more research on this subject? And why isn't there any focus on this side of illegal immigration?
My theory is that because the dems and the MSM want to win an election and will even have us lose a war in order for them to gain control. And the reverse is true with the deaths by illegal immigrants. This story would be a bad one for the dems that don't really want border enforcement. That would stop the flow of potential voters, since they get at least 60% of the hispanic vote. Now illegals can't vote, but their children born in this country can and will vote majority democrat. And that's not even mentioning the pandering to the huge population of Hispanic Americans. This is a truly cynical view of the dems, but one that I really believe. That why there is such a push for illegal immigrants to gain driver's licenses. If it were about safety then the dems would want the border totally sealed shut.
But back to the increasing number of deaths by illegal immigrants, why can't we ask the Obama and Clinton why 4,000 deaths in Iraq overs 5 years is worse than over 4,000 deaths annually by illegal immigrants. Could it be that deaths in Iraq can be used to get them into power? While the deaths by illegals would hurt them politically. And the next time Obama claims that this issue is divisive and should be treated sensitively beacuse of the spike in hate crimes against hispanics, tell him to back it up with valid statistics and not just rhetoric. I won't hold my breath waiting for the MSM to talk about this facet of illegal immigration, but at least they cannot suppress the views on the internet. Not yet anyway.
