Trump Was Right About Illegals in Election

At a recent NAACP community forum I attended, and was on the panel for, the moment the immigration issue came up, and I explained the dangers of illegal immigration, and how California's Sanctuary State Status (AB 54) is illegal (unconstitutional) because it violates the Constitution's Supremacy Clause (no State can have a law contrary to U.S. Laws which are pursuant to the U.S. Constitution), the crowd exploded, calling me "racist," and a "bigot."

I gave a number of reasons for my position on immigration.  My wife is an immigrant, and her family when she was a child went through the immigration process, jumping through each and every hoop the system offered.  To allow people to jump in line and come into this country without requiring they go through the legal process of entering this country is a slap in the face of every legal immigrant.

Three years ago, when the federal government began to bus illegal aliens into our community after processing them at a Border Patrol Station in the area, my granddaughter wound up with hand-mouth-and-foot disease.  The doctor was curious why incidents of the disease had jumped from zero, to such a huge number.  The spike correlated with the increase of illegals in our area.  While every single illegal alien may not be diseased, because those who do carry diseases (and many much worse than what my granddaughter wound up with) a protocol is necessary to protect the receiving population from those who may be sick.

Also mixed into the population of illegal aliens are gang members, drug smugglers, drug cartel members, terrorists, and all kinds of criminals from rapists to murderers.  Wouldn't it be prudent to make sure those people are removed from the list of those coming into the country using the immigration laws that are already on the books?

Then, there is the illegal voting.  One study shows that 5.7 million noncitizens may have cast illegal votes in the 2008 election.  God knows what that number increased to in 2016.

In recent years the State of Virginia removed more than 5,500 noncitizens from voter lists, including 1,852 people who had cast more than 7,000 ballots.

In a more recent study, Philadelphia elections official have admitted that hundreds of individuals who are not U.S. citizens have registered to vote in Philadelphia and nearly half of them voted in past elections. Since 2006, 317 registered voters have contacted the City Commissioners, which oversees Philadelphia elections, asking that their registrations be canceled because they are not citizens.

Public Interest Legal Foundation later published a report detailing 86 cases of noncitizens whose voter registrations were quietly revoked between 2013 and 2015. Almost half of them had voted at least once.

If these are the numbers we are finding out about, how many more have been voting to change our country into something it's not supposed to be that we don't know about?
