Another Reason To Secure Our Border With Mexico (McCain, Representatives, illegals)

[Magnum Mike]

What will it take for politicians in Washington to realize that securing the Mexican border is a MUST. How many times does this have to happen before they wake up? This happened yesterday in Phoenix, and as a result, the Phoenix Police Department lost one of their best.

And they want to give these people amnesty?

PHOENIX -- The man authorities say shot and killed a Phoenix police officer yesterday was an illegal immigrant.

Ben Lemoine and Tess Rafols reports That new information coming from Immigration and Customs Enforcement today. The agency says 22-year-old Erik Jovani Martinez was in the country illegally last year when he was arrested and convicted on sex charges.

Martinez was then deported, and at some point re-entered the country illegally.

Martinez was killed yesterday after police shot him as he pointed a gun at the head of a carjacking victim.

He had been stopped a little before that for jaywalking by Phoenix police Officer Nick Erfle.

Country makes me sick sometimes. Look at this...another officer loses his life to some low life illegal. Glad he life got taken from him too.

Please be careful out there patriots. Bush and his cronies want a race war so they can yell Martial Law and guess who would be the people who would be hurt by it? Us, that's who. The Spanish speaking illegals seem to be the "chosen people" the way that the Bush administration acts.

its getting to the point where US Citizens will have to take matters into their own hands.

Before saying anything, I have to say that I am not against citizens of other countries immigrating here, just as long as they do everything legally and LEAVE THEIR COUNTRY BEHIND, don't bring it with you.

Politicians in DC, who are pro amnesty, have to realize that when somebody enters this country illegally through the southern border, and don't want to go through the proper procedures, there has to be a reason for it, they don't want immigration officials to find out about their past, which may include a criminal history. Look at the number of ciminal offenses that were committed by illegals in some cities, what does that tell you? Somebody that breaks the law by entering this country illegally does not have legitimate motives to be here.

A loss of a human life is not cool on any level. However, if youre here illegally and decide to take the life of a peace officer, I feel no sadness for their loss of life.

It is a sad fact Steve that any criminal, it doesn't matter if they're in the United States legally or illegally, when they commit such horrendous acts, they don't think of the lives they'll be affecting. In Officer Nick Efle's case, he was a husband with two children, which really makes me sick because those two kids now have to grow up without their father, thanks to the arrogance and selfishness of one individual, who thought he could get away from the police.

We also know that this guy had a previous criminal history here in Arizona and was deported to Mexico, and he managed to get back into the United States. I wish our politicians would put more effort into keeping these criminals in prison, either here or in Mexico, instead of putting a lot of effort to give them amnesty.

a person is a killer regardless of their immigration status. to attribute violence to being "illegal" is no more reasonable than attributing it to video games or music.

Apparently you don't get it....The killer wasn't supposed to be in this country! He was here illegally. If he had been kept out, like he is supposed to be, he wouldn't have been here to kill someone!!! Get it????
