Enforcement works, whether on immigration or illegal gambling

“California is going to become a Hispanic state and if anyone doesn’t like it they should leave, they ought to go back to Europe.” – Mario Obledo, founder of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, 1998.

“This has set us back tremendously.” – Jerry Gonzalez, executive director of the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials on Cobb County’s policy of using available federal tools to enforce American law. (as reported by the Atlanta newspaper), Oct. 24, 2006.

Having long studied illegal immigration and the characters involved in that organized crime here in Georgia, it is very interesting to me to watch as GALEO’s Jerry Gonzalez receives media attention in the MDJ and elsewhere.

Gonzalez hopes we will believe that equal application of the law is somehow “anti-immigrant” “anti-Latino” and “discriminatory.”

Coming from the far, far left and, rather comically, ignoring the fact that most Americans recognize the difference between a legal act and those that violate the laws most of us are held to, Gonzalez is shameless in his never-ending attempt to equate all Hispanics/Latinos and real immigrants with illegal aliens. What could be a greater insult to Latinos – or be more anti-immigrant?

Gonzalez is now howling “discrimination” because Cobb Sheriff Neil Warren is using his authority to alert the feds to illegal aliens who have committed additional crimes. This – and Gonzalez’s marching with MALDEF in the streets of Atlanta last year leading self-announced illegals demanding an end to enforcement of American immigration and employment laws – provides clear insight into GALEO’s real agenda.

Because he presents himself as speaking for an entire ethnic group, a question: Why does the law-abiding Latino community not raise its voice and disavow this race-baiter?

My friend Olga Robles, who lives a few blocks from the U.S.-Mexican border in Douglas, Ariz., is very familiar with people like that. Her family came here from Mexico many years ago. She will proudly tell you that she is an American. No hyphen. But she is called an “apple polisher for the ‘Gringos,” when she speaks up against illegal border crossers who swarm into her yard at night.

For his demand that America secure its borders and enforce its immigration and employment laws, my friend – and a former Canyon County Commissioner in Idaho Robert Vasquez – is called a “coconut” (brown on the outside, white on the inside). Vasquez, a Vietnam War veteran who left part of his right leg there, happens to be of Mexican descent.
