Whack-job Arizona Congressman Grijalvo, Attorney General Eric Holder, Divider-cum-Usurper-in-Chief BarackObama, SanFran Chief Imbecile Gavin Newsom, et al, ad nauseam, all seem to be missing one very salient, and hopefully non-trumpable point: it is their failure, not the Arizona State Legislature and its Governor, Jan Brewer, which has brought us to this pass. Not only has the government of Arizona acted within their constitutional, ethical, and legal bounds by enacting recent legislation to empower enforcement against illegal alien presence within their state, they have been compelled to do so due to the flagrant breach of the Constitution by the Federal Government, by the Congressman, and now, by that person masquerading as a Mayor in San Francisco. It is apparent that none of them has read the Constitution, but I’ll be more than happy to help them understand plain English. Everything they need to know is in Article 4 of the United States Constitution:
Article 4.
Section 1
Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other State. And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings shall be proved, and the Effect thereof.Section 2
The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.A Person charged in any State with Treason, Felony, or other Crime, who shall flee from Justice, and be found in another State, shall on demand of the executive Authority of the State from which he fled, be delivered up, to be removed to the State having Jurisdiction of the Crime.
No Person held to Service or Labour in one State, under the Laws thereof, escaping into another, shall, in Consequence of any Law or Regulation therein, be discharged from such Service or Labour, But shall be delivered up on Claim of the Party to whom such Service or Labour may be due.
Section 3
New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new States shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States; and nothing in this Constitution shall be so construed as to Prejudice any Claims of the United States, or of any particular State.
A point that seems to be missed on a right regular basis is that the several States are sovereign unto themselves – little countries in fact. That they are subject to the umbrella of the US Constitution is the result of agreements made long ago between their governing bodies and the Federal Government. They have the right, and the obligation, to ensure that their citizens are safe and prosperous. In exchange for tribute – oh, sorry, taxes – to the Feds, they are ensured protection from invasion; mutual respect by the other States and the Federal Government for their laws, court actions, and records; reciprocity when it comes to apprehending and prosecuting the breakers of their laws; and, in general, a fair shake and mutual back-scratching.
Now, we have a minimum of four states backed against the wall, because the Federal Government, in the guise of our so-called President, his lawless Attorney General, and his incompetent Secretary of Homeland Security refuse to enforce the Federal laws already on the books which make the presence of undocumented aliens a crime (hence the term “Illegal”), to secure the borders from the onslaught of invaders who represent a clear and present danger to those states, or to protect the citizens of those states from the dangers to life, liberty, and property from the invaders from another country. They’re backed against a wall, and they’re fighting mad.
Let me count the ways in which the detractors and protestors are wrong:
2. Congressman Grijalvo is actively calling on his compadres nationwide to break the law, both Federal and that of the State of Arizona. He too took an oath to uphold the Constitution; in addition, by inciting others to commit crimes, he is guilty of impeachable offenses, which in a perfect world would lose him his cushy job in D.C.
3. Mayor Newsom is a ditto to Grijalvo, just by continuing the policy of having San Francisco be a so-called “sanctuary city”. He, and his barrio-in-the-making, are a prime example of what it means to be part of the problem. They flaunt their lawlessness, and dare anyone to challenge them. He, too, was supposed to have taken an oath to uphold the Constitution, according to Article 6, paragraph 3, which reads:
The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.
4. Let us not forget the vandalism of the Arizona State House – have they moved to prosecute those little darlings? Are we placing bets on whether they were citizen vandals, or illegal alien invaders?
Although the 14th Amendment guarantees equal protection under the law, Article 1, Section 8, Paragraph 4 gives Congress the power to “establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization”. The Feds won’t even enforce the laws they’ve enacted on that. And I’ve seen nothing in the Constitution or its Amendments that guarantees illegal aliens exemption from prosecution simply because they seem willing to engage in economic, political, and physical terrorism.
Arizona is doing nothing more than giving their cops the power to enforce the Federal laws already on the books, that Dame Janet “the border is as secure as it’s ever been” Napolitano, at Barry’s and Eric’s behests refuses to enforce. And a $2500 fine is chicken feed (the Chicanos know about feeding chickens, right?); I’d just as soon find each and every one of them $20k, or whatever the going rate is these days for getting a green card and moving into citizenship. Then deport the little arrogant bastards for the rest of their lives. This is our country; if theirs is so fripping bad, they should revolt and get rid of their own corrupt overseers in Mexico City.
Look, assholes, to quote the words of one of our Founding Fathers,
If we do not hang together, we shall surely hang separately.
If these so-called leaders, and the mindless millions who seem to be falling in lockstep behind them, cannot see that we are hurtling towards anarchy and dissolution of the Union, then they need to be removed, recalled, whatever, as soon as possible, or the United States will cease to be.
I’m pretty convinced that’s Obama’s plan anyway; the question is, are we going to let it be?
