After reading the following ("Report: Gang suppression doesn't work" from
the newspaper USA Today) please check out the link to the article ¡§How
Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico¡¨ to see how a REAL
U.S. president -- one who actually performed his oath of office, upheld the
Rule of Law and looked out for the interests of ordinary Americans (pretty
shocking, huh?) -- surprisingly swiftly solved the en masse disrespecting
of America's borders and sovereignty by foreigners 50 years ago. President
"Mission Accomplished" Bush is the ONLY American president to insist, "...
but it can't be done!"; EVERY other president held in any regard has,
conversely, inspired us to do "the impossible".
Do THESE words sound familiar?:
"There is nothing to fear but fear itself."
-- President Franklin D. Roosevelt
"Let every nation know, whether it wishes
us well or ill, that we shall pay any price,
bear any burden, meet any hardship, support
any friend, oppose any foe, in order to
assure the survival and the success of liberty."
-- President John F. Kennedy
The USA Today report below is yet more evidence that a full-scale program
of deportation and repatriation of illegal aliens is the ONLY rational and
effective solution to the ongoing illegal alien invasion and colonization
of the USA. Even if such a program required "Manhattan Project"-type
resources it would be WELL worth it and -- like the lifesaving/nationsaving
"Manhattan Project" itself -- one of the best investments Americans ever
made.
It CAN, WILL and MUST be done!
The following comment left by a reader of USA Today's news article
"Report: Gang suppression doesn't work" contains wisdom and common sense
which are tragically too scarce among the powers-that-be:
"levotb wrote:
Typical feely good hogwash from the left.
Mr. McBride has it exactly right.
What is clearly missing from this typical
AP pro-criminal story is the fact that
most gang members in the U.S. are illegal
aliens. With the Southern Border sealed,
gang members from Latin American countries
cannot enter the U.S. at will. We need to
work towards that goal while making being
a gang member punishable under RICO and
with very severe consequences."

Report: Gang suppression doesn't work
USA Today
7-19-07
LOS ANGELES (AP) ¡X Anti-gang legislation and police crackdowns are failing
so badly that they are strengthening the criminal organizations and making
U.S. cities more dangerous, according to a report being released Wednesday.
Mass arrests, stiff prison sentences often served with other gang members
and other strategies that focus on law enforcement rather than intervention
actually strengthen gang ties and further marginalize angry young men,
according to the Justice Policy Institute, a Washington, D.C., think tank
that advocates alternatives to incarceration.
"We're talking about 12-, 13-, 14-, 15-year-olds whose involvement in gangs
is likely to be ephemeral unless they are pulled off the street and put in
prison, where they will come out with much stronger gang allegiances," said
Judith Greene, co-author of "Gang Wars: The Failure of Enforcement Tactics
and the Need for Effective Public Safety Strategies."
The report is based on interviews and analysis of hundreds of pages of
previously published statistics and reports. And though it is valid and
accurate, the ideas raised in it are not new, said Arthur Lurigio, a
psychologist and criminal justice professor at Loyola University of
Chicago.
"These approaches, although they sound novel, are just old wine in new
bottles," he said. "Gang crime and violence in poor urban neighborhoods
have been a problem since the latter parts of the 19th century."
Lurigio, other academics and gang intervention workers have echoed elements
of the report that found gangs need to be viewed as a symptom of other
problems in poor communities, such as violence, teen pregnancy, drug abuse
and unemployment.
The report says Los Angeles and Chicago are losing the war on gangs because
they focus on law enforcement and are short on intervention.
It cites a report this year by civil rights attorney Connie Rice, who was
hired by Los Angeles to evaluate its failing anti-gang programs. Her report
called for an initiative to provide jobs and recreational programs in
impoverished neighborhoods.
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Police Chief William Bratton both commended
Rice's report. But in February, they unveiled a strategy that focused on
targeting the city's worst gangs with arrests and civil injunctions that
prohibit known gang members from associating with one another in public.
Rice describes the city's policy on arresting the city's estimated 39,000
gang members as "stuck on stupid."
Wes McBride, executive director of the California Gang Investigators
Association, dismissed the findings of the report, which he said was
written by "thug-huggers." The investigators association is a professional
organization for police officers.
"Are they saying we can't put a thief in jail, we can't put a murderer in
jail, that we should spank them, put a diaper on them, pat them on the
bottom, hug them and let them go?" McBride said. "It's obviously a think
tank report, and they didn't leave their ivory tower and spend any time on
the streets."
"Gang Wars" also criticizes politicians who overstate the threat of
criminal gangs and seek tougher sentences.
Greene specifically criticized a bill introduced by Sens. Dianne Feinstein,
D-Calif., and Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, that would make it illegal to be a
member of a criminal gang and would make it easier to prosecute some minors
as adults.
But Feinstein spokesman Scott Gerber said the bill also calls for spending
more than $400 million on gang prevention and intervention programs, which
he said would be the largest single investment of its kind.

¡§How Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico¡¨
By John Dillin
http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/0706/p09s01-coop.html
Excerpt:
¡§General Eisenhower ... quoted a report in The New York Times,
highlighting one paragraph that said: ¡¥The rise in illegal border-crossing
by Mexican 'wetbacks' to a current rate of more than
1,000,000 cases a year has been accompanied by a curious relaxation
in ethical standards extending all the way from the farmer-exploiters
of this contraband labor to the highest levels of the Federal
Government ..."
¡§Herbert Brownell Jr., Eisenhower's first attorney general, said the
president had a sense of urgency about illegal immigration when he took
office.
¡§America ¡¥was faced with a breakdown in law enforcement on a very large
scale,¡¦ Mr. Brownell said. ¡¥When I say large scale, I mean hundreds of
thousands were coming in from Mexico [every year] without restraint.¡¦"

"Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in
criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent Social Security
numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent
some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on
a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status. In
addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also
prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today's federal prison
population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of
felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal
aliens."
-- Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House
Subcommittee on Immigration, Border, Security and Claims [Note: 99% of
warrants for murder in Los Angeles, California -- the USA's 2nd
most-populous city -- are for illegal aliens]
"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate,
tireless minority keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of
men."
-- Samuel Adams
