Subject: In her own words---Arizona
Senator Sylvia Allen
GOOD GOING ARIZONA,
I'm Arizona State Senator Sylvia
Allen. I want to explain SB 1070 which I voted for and was just signed
by Governor Jan Brewer.
Rancher Rob Krentz was murdered by the drug cartel on his ranch a month
ago. I participated in a senate hearing two weeks ago on the border
violence, here is just some of the highlights from those who testified.
The people who live within 60 to 80
miles of the Arizona/Mexico Border have for years been terrorized and
have pleaded for help to stop the daily invasion of humans who cross
their property . One Rancher testified that 300 to 1200 people a DAY
come across his ranch vandalizing his property, stealing his vehicles
and property, cutting down his fences, and leaving trash. In the last
two years he has found 17 dead bodies and two Koran bibles.
Another rancher testified that daily
drugs are brought across his ranch in a military operation. A point man
with a machine gun goes in front, 1/2 mile behind are the guards fully
armed, 1/2 mile behind them are the drugs, behind the drugs 1/2 mile are
more guards. These people are violent and they will kill anyone who gets
in the way. This was not the only rancher we heard that day that talked
about the drug trains.
One man told of two illegal's who came
upon his property one shot in the back and the other in the arm by the
drug runners who had forced them to carry the drugs and then shot them.
Daily they listen to gun fire during the night it is not safe to leave
his family alone on the ranch and they can't leave the ranch for fear of
nothing being left when they come back.
The border patrol is not on the
border. They have set up 60 miles away with check points that do nothing
to stop the invasion. They are not allowed to use force in stopping
anyone who is entering. They run around chasing them, if they get their
hands on them then they can take them back across the border.
Federal prisons have over 35%
illegal's and 20% of Arizona prisons are filled with illegal's. In the
last few years 80% of our law enforcement that have been killed or
wounded have been by an illegal.
The majority of people coming now are
people we need to be worried about. The ranchers told us that they have
seen a change in the people coming they are not just those who are
looking for work and a better life.
The Federal Government has refused for
years to do anything to help the border states . We have been over run
and once they are here we have the burden of funding state services that
they use. Education cost have been over a billion dollars. The
healthcare cost billions of dollars. Our State is broke, $3.5 billion
deficit and we have many serious decisions to make. One is that we do
not have the money to care for any who are not here legally. It has to
stop.
The border can be secured. We have the technology we have the ability to
stop this invasion. We must know who is coming and they must come in an
organized manner legally so that we can assimilate them into our
population and protect the sovereignty of our country. We are a nation
of laws. We have a responsibility to protect our citizens and to protect
the integrity of our country and the government which we live under.
I would give amnesty today to many,
but here is the problem, we dare not do this until the Border is secure.
It will do no good to forgive them because thousands will come behind
them and we will be over run to the point that there will no longer be
the United States of America but a North American Union of open borders.
I ask you what form of government will we live under? How long will it
be before we will be just like Mexico , Canada or any of the other
Central American or South American countries? We have already lost our
language, everything must be printed in Spanish also. We have already
lost our history it is no longer taught in our schools. And we have lost
our borders.
The leftist media has distorted what
SB 1070 will do. It is not going to set up a Nazi Germany . Are you
kidding. The ACLU and the leftist courts will do everything to protect
those who are here illegally, but it was an effort to try and stop
illegal's from setting up businesses, and employment, and receiving
state services and give the ability to local law enforcement when there
is probable cause like a traffic stop to determine if they are here
legally. Federal law is very clear if you are here on a visa you must
have your papers on you at all times. That is the law. In Arizona all
you need to show you are a legal citizen is a driver license, MVD
identification card, Native American Card, or a Military ID. This is
what you need to vote, get a hunting license, etc.. So nothing new has
been added to this law. No one is going to be stopped walking down the
street etc... The Socialist who are in power in DC are angry because we
dare try and do something and that something the Socialist wants us to
do is just let them come. They want the "Transformation" to continue.
Maybe it is too late to save America .
Maybe we are not worthy of freedom anymore. But as an elected official I
must try to do what I can to protect our Constitutional Republic .
Living in America is not a right just because you can walk across the
border. Being an American is a responsibility and it comes by respecting
and upholding the Constitution the law of our land which says what you
must do to be a citizen of this country. Freedom is not free.
