7/10/14, "Elected Representatives Hide From Murrieta Immigration Showdown," Canada Free Press, Douglas V. Gibbs
"I was asked why people in Murrieta hate the migrants trying to come to the United States for a better life, and why we are not angry with the federal government instead. I responded that we are not angry, nor do we feel hate towards the people being treated as cattle by the federal government for a political agenda.
The citizens of Murrieta, who have been protesting against illegal aliens being shipped into our city in massive numbers, feel for those people on the buses and we blame Washington, including our representatives, for the problem. The White House has been encouraging the Central Americans and South Americans to cross the border and enter our country. Promises have been made. Opportunities are to be had. Deportation is statistically unlikely. The border is wide open.
During the long trek to the United States, over a third of the minority girls are raped and many of the young boys are molested. People die. Illness spreads through the groups. They are unable to bathe, sleep is difficult and rare, and food is an uncommon luxury. After crossing the border, harassed by Mexican drug cartels and violent gang members, if captured by American law customs officials, the people are herded together like cattle, forced into close proximity with each other, enabling the diseases and lice infestations to spread throughout the groups. In some cases the head lice is so bad that the small ectoparasite can be seen walking across the faces of the children.
The detained migrants, if not processed in Texas, where a majority of them enter the United States at the Rio Grande Valley are often then flown to San Diego, packed like animals going to a slaughterhouse into a Homeland Security bus and then are sent to a processing facility like the one in Murrieta in groups of a couple hundred, even though the Border Patrol Station is equipped to handle around twenty persons.Then, during the 72 hour processing period, they sleep on concrete in the same clothes they crossed the border in, without being able to bathe, without ever being fed, and then finally are released into the wild, dropped off in Murrieta with a bus ticket and a piece of paper telling them to report to authorities later for a hearing.
In Murrieta, the Riverside County Supervisor offered the use of a mobile hospital to help with health screenings. The federal government rejected the offer. Meanwhile, the receiving population and Border Patrol agents are being exposed to various diseases including, but not limited to, scabies; hand and foot disease; small pox; chagos, and tuberculosis.
To protect their city, the fine citizens of Murrieta have worked together in protest, gathering at the station with signs stating that they support the Border Patrol, that they thank law enforcement for keeping the peace, and they feel badly for the immigrants that are being treated like cattle for a political agenda and are being encouraged to come to this country by a federal government that refuses to execute the laws on the books that are there for the specific purpose of protecting the people of the United States from any unwanted encroachment largely because of the possibility of communicable diseases being brought into this country. The immigration laws are not in place because the United States wishes to be discriminatory or racist, but in order to protect the receiving population, and the immigrants, by putting them through a thorough process that includes a health screening examination.
For their participation in the effort to protect their city, Murrieta residents are being targeted as “haters,” and “non-compassionate racists.” So the people have carefully crafted their argument to ensure that people understand that their motives are pure, their motives are driven by love for the poor people being treated wrongly by the federal government and driven by the fear of their community being overtaxed with health issues and a massive number of homeless people on the streets.
Alan Long, the mayor of Murrieta, has stepped up to defend his city despite ridiculous cries by some shortsighted people that the protests give the City of Murrieta a black eye. Harry Ramos, the Mayor Pro-Tem, has spoken out in support of the efforts to protect the city by the protesters. Even Jeff Stone, the Riverside County Supervisor, at the townhall meeting a week ago, verbalized his frustration for how the federal government is acting regarding illegal immigration, accusing the White House of refusing to abide by the rule of law. However, that is where the support by elected representatives has stopped.
Where are the State Assembly members and State Senators? Where are the Congressmen that represent the local districts? Why have they been silent? Why aren’t they out there with us on the protest site helping us turn the buses around, and sending the migrants back from where they came?
In Temecula, the Congressman that represents the local population in the United States Congress is Congressman Duncan Hunter, the son of a champion regarding the immigration issue. The son, the current member of the House of Representatives, not so much. He has been weak on the issue, and his absence only confirms that fact.
The even larger disappointment is Congressman Ken Calvert, the 42nd District representative whose office in Corona is just a quick shot down the freeway from the City of Murrieta, the second largest city in his district, second only to Corona. Where is Calvert? Why has he not made an appearance? If the second hand information I heard true, in a conversation when asked about the situation in Murrieta, Congressman Ken Calvert asked helplessly, “What can I do?”
Has he fallen for the idea that Barack Obama is king, too?
Last November I toyed with the idea of running for Congress against Ken Calvert. I talked to a few folks to see what they thought. The reaction of the people who follow my local activities, attend my Constitution Classes and are active members of the Constitution Association, were excited. “Finally,” they told me, “we would have someone who understands the Constitution in Washington.”
Calvert is a republican, and probably the most powerful republican in the State of California. He was elected with the GOP group that promised to stand by their Contract with America back in the nineties but with each passing year his conservative rating has diminished, vanishing slowly as Congressman Calvert became just another member of the cesspool in Washington.
He has used his position to make money in real estate, he was once caught with a prostitute in the car with him in a park in Corona, and now he has abandoned Murrieta during our time of need.
I chose not to run against Calvert because we did not have enough fundraising potential. Rather than $500,000, we were looking more at earning $50,000. The election rules are designed to keep the average guy out of politics so that only those that are next in line, chosen to be the replacements of the ruling elite, can afford to run a campaign. Calvert won’t be congressman forever. He will eventually fade into obscurity like the rest of the good ol’ boys, and his hand-picked clone will serve like he did, with one hand in the cookie jar, and the other in the cesspool - the voters be damned.
The absence of Ken Calvert, our State representatives and all of the other elected politicians, is inexcusable Article I, Section 8 vests in Congress the power to call forth the militia to protect the States from invasion. They have the authority to pressure the President to secure the border. They have the moral duty to stand with us in the sun as the wind whips around the rocky dust, waving an American Flag with his constituents.
Instead the elected officials, like Ken Calvert and Duncan Hunter, have chosen to play Waldo, vanishing into the landscape, hiding in plain sight, and abandoning the people who voted them into office." via Free Rep.
