Illegal invaders are committing atrocities against the American people and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, under orders from above, are turning a blind eye and letting it happen. After an illegal invader in California murdered a woman we have an nearly identical story from Ohio.

Paul takes a moment to clarify the ‘teachable moment’ from a recent YouTube video confrontation between a homeowner and a police officer. Unfortunately, it seems that far too many Students of the Gun missed the point of the exercise.

From www.breitbart.com:

“Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump deserves credit for forcing all 17 Republican candidates to talk about the social costs of illegal immigration, but it is not “Trump’s issue.” We will be making a fatal mistake if we let the media discuss it that way.

As Ann Coulter has pointed out, this is the most critical issue of the 2016 race because this is the issue that will define whether or not there will even be an American nation recognizable as the “home of the free and land of the brave.”

But illegal immigration is not “Ann Coulter’s issue” any more than it is “Tom Tancredo’s issue.” It is America’s issue — not only because it will define America in the 21st Century but because it also defines American elections and who will be voting in elections in 2020 and beyond. It also illuminates the power of the mainstream media to keep issues off the national stage.

Think of illegal immigration this way: If the liberal media can keep illegal alien crime out of the “kitchen table debate,” they can keep any issue out of the debate. And they will if they can get away with it. For those reasons, illegal immigration is much more than an issue of public policy; it is the poster child for media malpractice.

The media’s attempt to suppress public awareness over illegal alien crime and the effects of illegal immigration on American workers’ jobs and wages is nothing less than censorship on a massive scale. We need to start talking about it in those terms and hold the media accountable for the lack of ethical standards.

The mainstream media – including, sadly, major segments of the presumably conservative media, like the Wall Street Journal — are working overtime to keep the American public and the American voters in the dark on the scope of illegal alien crime. The murder of Kate Steinle in San Francisco exposed only the tip of a massive iceberg, and the media establishment is desperate to avoid dealing with the iceberg underneath.

Let’s look at a few numbers. You haven’t seen them in the New York Times, Atlanta Constitution, or the Miami Herald, nor have they been featured on NBC Nightly news or CNN. So, the average American is blissfully unaware of them.

Between 2008 and 2014, 40% of all murder convictions in Florida were criminal aliens. In New York it was 34% and Arizona 17.8%.
During those years, criminal aliens accounted for 38% of all murder convictions in the five states of California, Texas, Arizona, Florida and New York, while illegal aliens constitute only 5.6% of the total population in those states.
That 38% represents 7,085 murders out of the total of 18,643.
That 5.6% figure for the average illegal alien population in those five states comes from US Census estimates. We know the real number is double that official estimate. Yet, even if it is 11%, it is still shameful that the percentage of murders by criminal aliens is more than triple the illegal population in those states.“

From www.cleveland.com:

“The father of the undocumented immigrant accused of a murder and attempted rape in Lake County filed for U.S. citizenship for his son more than a decade ago, according to a Hispanic advocacy group.

HOLA Ohio executive director Veronica Dahlberg released a statement Wednesday to address several lingering questions about Juan Emmanuel Razo, who is accused of killing a 60-year-old woman, shooting a woman in the arm and the attempted rape of a 14-year-old girl.

The organization’s statement came the same day authorities released more details about a July 7 encounter with Razo and his father that ended with federal officials declining to detain Razo who could not provide proof that he was allowed to be in the country.

Dahlberg decried the public outcry that followed word of Razo’s initial encounter with local sheriff’s deputies citing that Razo has been “standing in line” for his green card for more than 12 years and that he suffers from a serious mental illness.

“This is not an issue about immigration,” Dahlberg said. “Rather, it is about the problems associated with adults with mental illness.”

Dahlberg said Razo’s father, Rodrigo Razo Cordova, is a naturalized U.S. citizen who has worked in the fields for 40 years.

Her claims have not been verified.

Cordova played a role in the July 7 incident in question.

Recording from July 7 encounter
A deputy patrolling Casement Avenue about 9:45 p.m. saw a blue two-door Honda parked near the Casement Club golf course, according to reports. When the deputy approached the vehicle, it was empty.

A man, later identified as Razo, emerged from the woods on the west side of the road, reports show. He said his name was Juan Russel and had no form of identification.

A 911 dispatcher told the deputy that the Honda’s registration listed the owner of the vehicle as the 56-year-old Cordova, who had valid vehicle registration and no warrant for his arrest, the dispatcher said.

Cordova eventually came to the golf course parking lot to get his car, according to the report. He told a deputy that Razo – who he referred to as Emmanuel – was his son.

Razo was detained while the deputy worked with dispatchers to confirm his identity.

The deputy contacted a “border patrol” agent at some point during the encounter.
The deputy didn’t say which agency he contacted, but Lake County Sheriff Daniel Dunlap said it was U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Officials there have not confirmed their involvement.

It’s not clear what was said during the deputy’s conversation with federal agent, but Razo reportedly refused to identify himself to the agent. A report says the agent “later decided not to respond” to take Razo into custody.

Officials eventually confirmed Razo’s identity. Razo was let go with a warning to stay away from the golf course.

Just a few weeks later, Razo is accused of shooting two women and attempting to rape a 14-year-old girl at three different sites near Painesville. Margaret Kostelnik died from gunshot wounds.

Razo, 35, is being held on a $10 million bond in connection with a violent crime spree Monday that left the usually quiet community on edge.

Razo’s case has created local ties to the increasingly heated national debate on immigration policies. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who made headlines when he characterized Mexican immigrants as criminals, is expected to touch on the events in Lake County when he visits Northeast Ohio in August.“

From www.washingtontimes.com:

“More than 100 immigrants whom the Obama administration released back into the community went on to be charged with subsequent killings, according to government data released Monday that raises more questions about whether immigration authorities are doing enough to detail illegal immigrants awaiting deportation.

In one case, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement acknowledged that its agents didn’t find out about an illegal immigrant’s death threats and court injunctions against him — which should have put him back in detention — until after the man was accused of murder.“
