Our local community is suffering from the hands of an illegal immigrant. Driving drunk late at night, he crashed into a car filled with local high school students, killing two and injuring one. We have seen the horrible effects of illegal immigrants. From rapes, to murder, to crime, to violence, and to gang violence, America has bore the grunt of these people too long. Now, states such as California and Maryland, want to allow these non-Americans to be allowed to stay. There are two noticeable types of illegal immigrants: Middle Eastern and Central-American. Allowing both of these groups of illegals into our country would be catastrophic. Just a few weeks ago, an Afghan Terrorist managed to get through our "most extreme vetting process", obviously it doesn't work too well. Notice how people try to justify allowing these illegals into OUR country by saying they have not caused terror, violence,rape, or crime in the United States in the past. These people are just too ignorant to open their eyes and see Europe as an example. In just one night alone, Middle Eastern refugees attacked, beat, sexually assaulted, and raped over 250 German women. The problem has gotten so out-of-hand that Germans now call the refugees, "rapefugees". In addition, a study done by XY Einzelfall shows that over 45% of all sex crimes reported in Germany were committed less than 9 miles from refugee locations. In Munich, the citizens have become so scared and angry that they built a 13 foot wall around the refugee center. Despite being less than 6% of the total population, refugees have committed over 25% of 2016 rapes in Finland. According to a French Study, the most common ethnic group found in French prisons are North African Refugees. In addition, young male immigrants are 3 times more likely to commit a crime than the average young German male. Also, crime rates in Germany jumped over 75% from 2015-2016 (That year, refugee intake increased over 400%). The average immigrant male in Norway is 3 times more likely to commit a crime than the average Norwegian male. In addition, Somali males are 4.5 times more likely to commit a crime. In Switzerland, 70% of the prison population does not even have Swiss citizenship. European Nations are starting to get fed up with these refugees. The HUGE majority of citizens oppose their entry and stay (over 65%). Notice how countries like Hungary, Poland, and Greece vastly oppose refugees? Why? Because they're racists? NO! It is because they have seen the horrid and terrible effects of allowing these people into their country. We must save the United States from these people who have no knowledge of Western Society or Culture. A small portion also despises the United States due to our affairs in the Middle East. Terror rates in Europe are the highest they have been since the IRA attacks. The United States has no responsibility to accept these refugees. They are not our citizens, and they are not protected with American rights. Many don't speak English, want to even come to the United States, can keep a job, pay bills, or understand Western Society. This would then toll on the taxpayers. It is a poor investment for our economy. The better route is to destroy and kill ISIS and terror groups and allow these people to stay in their country and their environment. However, states like California and Maryland are attempting to stop this process and allow these potential criminals into our country. The United States has hardly any way of knowing anything about these peoples past lives. They could have been terrorists, rapists, murderers, or criminals. In fact, the United States now knows that hundreds of terrorists were allowed into the country as "Iraqi and Afghan War Refugees" in the mid-2000s. We cannot let this happen again on a more greater scale.

Refugees from Central-America are not much better. A large majority come from Honduras, which ranks in the top 5 countries for crime and homicide, and El Salvador, which ranks number 8 on the same list. In addition, these people are not American Citizens, and should not be treated as one. Illegal immigrants from these nations cost American Taxpayers over 100 billion dollars per year. Almost 50% of federal crimes were committed near the US Border. A Central-American Immigrant is 3 times more likely to commit a crime than the average American. Illegals accounted for over 75% of drug crimes in the United States.In 2015, ICE released almost 20,000 illegals that committed 64,000 crimes that involve "12,307 drunken driving convictions, 1,728 cases of assault, 216 kidnappings and more than 200 homicide or manslaughter convictions.It's even worse when one considers the fact that the Obama administration released "86,000 illegal immigrants who have committed over 231,000 crimes in just the past two and a half years." Gang Violence is beginning to increase, as well. With ruthless Mexican gangs hopping the border and running to cities with less immigration policies, many Americans children, teens, and adults are sure to die from increased gang violence. In Los Angeles, 95 percent of all outstanding warrants for homicide (which total 1,200 to 1,500) target illegal aliens. Up to two-thirds of all fugitive felony warrants (17,000) are for illegal aliens.

It is not wrong to believe that these immigrants should not be allowed into our nation. They should not be. They threaten children, adults, and our nation. It is time we put an end to this "Sanctuary City and State" nonsense. It is not everyone's right to be an American. It is a privilege. Do not put your state's citizens and other American citizen's at risk to make a political point. Your action could harm several thousand American lives. It is not worth the risk. Open your eyes, keep your citizens safe, and do your job. A government protects its citizens, not puts them in harms way. Open your eyes, keep your citizens safe, and do your job. Would you ever put your kids in harms way? No, so why put your country in harms way? Make the smart decision, and do not harm our country.
