Retired Border Patrol Agent Letter

 

LETTER FROM A RETIRED BORDER PATROL AGENT:

 

This letter sent to Tennessee Senator Bill Frist from a retired border patrol agent, and it has more common sense than all the bull being spewed from the Senate, with the exception of a few sensible representatives.

 

Dear Senator Frist:

 

There is a huge amount of propaganda and myths circulating about illegal aliens,

particularly illegal Mexican, Salvadorian, Guatemalan and Honduran aliens.

 

#1. Illegal aliens generally do NOT want US citizenship. Americans are very vain

thinking that everybody in the world wants to be a US citizen. Mexicans, and

other nationalities want to remain citizens of their home countries while obtaining

the benefits offered by the United States such as employment, medical care,

instate tuition, government subsidized housing and free education for their

offspring. Their main attraction is employment and their loyalty usually remains

at home. They want benefits earned and subsidized by middle class Americans.

What illegal aliens want are benefits of American residence without paying

the price.

 

#2. There are no jobs that Americans won't do. Illegal aliens are doing jobs

that Americans can't take and still support their families. Illegal aliens take

low wage jobs, live dozens in a single residence home, share expenses and

send money to their home country. There are no jobs that Americans won't

do for a decent wage.

#3. Every person who illegally entered this nation left a home. They are NOT

homeless and they are NOT Americans. Some left jobs in their home countries.

They come to send money to their real home as evidenced by the more than 20

billion dollars sent out of the country each year by illegal aliens. These illegal

aliens knowingly and willfully entered this nation in violation of the law and

therefore assumed the risk of detection and deportation. Those who brought their

alien children assumed the responsibility and risk on behalf of their children.

 

#4. Illegal aliens are NOT critical to the economy. Illegal aliens constitute less

than 5% of the workforce. However, they reduce wages and benefits for lawful

US residents.

 

#5. This is NOT an immigrant nation. There are 280 million native born

Americans. While it is true that this nation was settled and founded by

immigrants (legal immigrants), it is also true that there is not a nation on

this planet that was not settled by immigrants at one time or another.

 

#6. The United States is welcoming to legal immigrants. Illegal aliens are not

immigrants by definition. The US accepts more lawful immigrants every year

than the rest of the world combined.

 

#7. There is no such thing as the "Hispanic vote." Hispanics are white, brown,

black and every shade in between. Hispanics are Republicans, Democrats,

Anarchists, Communists, Marxists and Independents. The so-called "Hispanic

vote" is a myth. Pandering to illegal aliens to get the Hispanic vote is a dead end.

 

#8. Mexico is NOT a friend of the United States . Since 1848 Mexicans have

resented the United States . During World War I Mexico allowed German Spies

to operate freely in Mexico to spy on the US . During World War II Mexico

allowed the Axis powers to spy on the US from Mexico . During the Cold War

Mexico allowed spies hostile to the US to operate freely. The attack on the Twin

Towers in 2001 was cheered and applauded all across Mexico . Today Mexican

school children are taught that the US stole California , Arizona , New Mexico

and Texas . If you don't believe it, check out some Mexican textbooks written

for their school children.

#9. Although some illegal aliens enter this country for a better life, there are 6

billion people on this planet. At least 1 billion of those live on less than one

dollar a day. If wanting a better life is a valid excuse to break the law and sneak

into America , then let's allow those one billion to come to America and we'll turn

the USA into a Third World nation overnight. Besides, there are 280 million native

born Americans who want a better life. I'll bet Bill Gates and Donald Trump want

a better life. When will the USA lifeboat be full? Since when is wanting a better

life a good reason to trash another nation?

 

#10. There is a labor shortage in this country. This is a lie. There are hundreds

of thousands, if not millions, of American housewives, senior citizens, students,

unemployed and underemployed who would gladly take jobs at a decent wage.

 

#11. It is racist to want secure borders. What is racist about wanting secure

borders and a secure America ? What is racist about not wanting people to sneak

into America and steal benefits we have set aside for legal aliens, senior citizens,

children and other legal residents? What is it about race that entitles people to

violate our laws, steal identities, and take the American Dream without paying

the price? For about four decades American politicians have refused to secure

our borders and look after the welfare of middle class Americans. These

politicians have been of both parties. A huge debt to American society has

resulted. This debt will be satisfied and the interest will be high. There has

already been riots in the streets by illegal aliens and their supporters. There will

be more. You, as a politician, have a choice to offend the illegal aliens who have

stolen into this country and demanded the rights afforded to US citizens or to

offend those of us who are stakeholders in this country. The interest will be steep

either way. There will be civil unrest. There will be a reckoning. Do you have the

courage to do what is right for America ? Or, will you bow to the wants and needs

of those who don't even have the right to remain here? There will be a reckoning.

 

It will come in November of this year. We will not allow America to be stolen by third world agitators and thieves.
