Sipsey Street Irregulars: Border War

Border War

Make no mistake about it. This isn’t a war against drugs, or a war against the drug cartels, or a war against illegal immigration, or even a war against human trafficking or Hezbollah fighters entering the U.S. at the Southern border. This is a war for national sovereignty – a border war.

Law enforcement cannot do the job when people are afraid to call them for fear of retribution and are being told to wear body armor to work out in their own fields.

Regarding the invasion of illegals and their drugs, consider the actions taken by the feds: DOJ lawsuits against states trying to protect their citizens and subsequent orders from federal judges to leave the illegals alone (and keep providing them benefits), amnesty by policy, provision of public benefits, near-celebrity status for illegals in custody including providing trans-gender illegals with expensive hormone therapy, demonization and actual punishment of local law enforcement who attempt to protect communities... The list goes on forever.

Illegal aliens are a giant money-maker for the feds. Look at the army of judges and lawyers assembled to deal with them. The legal process to deport an illegal is outrageously complicated. And after wasting all this tax money on a corrupt legal system, when an illegal actually gets deported he turns around and comes right back, keeping the money flowing.

It should be obvious to the whole world by now that 1: Illegals/drug cartels are making billions of dollars selling dope to American customers; and 2: The American government is facilitating this situation by allowing cartels free trade routes and refusing to effectively punish drug consumers. (Once again, they put on a profitable show at taxpayer expense, but actually do nothing to stop the dopers.); November 28, 2011 at 2:46 PM

Mr. White, Reservoir Dog Groomer said...: The laws from the days of Bill Jordan and Charles Askins are still valid.
1. Shoot.
2. Shovel.
3. Shut up.; November 28, 2011 at 6:58 PM
Paul X said...: Well, it IS about the war on drugs. Much of that crap (especially the violence) would disappear without it, leaving only the people who want to pick field crops (and that could be legalized via guest worker programs). In other words, ALL of this mess could be cleaned up - if it weren't in the interest of the federal government to keep it going. Yet the writer looks to the same protection racket that is causing the problem in the first place, to fix it. Good luck on that.; November 30, 2011 at 1:05 PM

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
