Much ado has been made about the recent arrests of illegal aliens from Mexico who were ethnically cleansing black Americans from the Los Angeles suburb of Hawaiian Gardens. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D98AUEK01&show_article=1" Interestingly enough, Janet Reno Napalitano and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) were not involved. It was an FBI operation along with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. While the press release mentions ICE as part of the Los Angeles High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) Task Force, ICE was prominently not mentioned as an actively participating agency. The only other federal agency mentioned as actively participating was the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATFE). It is frightening, and telling, that ICE, which has primary jurisdiction over illegal aliens, one of the few areas where the FBI does not have primary federal law enforcement authority, was not involved. http://losangeles.fbi.gov/dojpressrel/pressrel09/la052109.htm

Much ado was made by Janet Reno Napalitano of the threat to America by white Christian heterosexual men in two deeply flawed intelligence reports, one of which was just a rewrite of anti-white and anti-Christian propoganda published by the Anti-Defamation Leauge and the Southern Poverty Law Center.

However, the real threat to Americans, black and white, comes from Mexican and Salvadoran immigrants who are lawless, violent, and racist. And ICE, which has primary jurisdiction over illegal immigration enforcement, did nothing over a number of years, starting with George H.W. Bush, and continuing through Clinton, George W. Bush, and, now, with the Obama Regime.

Ethnic cleansing is not an uncommon crime committed by Mexican and Salvadoran immigrants. Many once white or black areas of southern California are now dominated by illegal and legal immigrants from Mexico. Hawaiian Guardens was not unusual. As a matter of fact, the alleged gang responsible, Varrio Hawaiian Gardens gang is not really a gang, but a loose association of like minded Mexicans who hate all who are not Mexican, and specifically blacks, but whites are victims as well, but mostly as taxpayers who fund the welfare and law enforcement that deal with the Mexican influx. But it has been more deadly for blacks, who live closer to Mexicans. Whites either keep Mexicans out by using property price, or move out once Mexicans move in, because they know what will happen next.

The tragedy is that black leaders, like Maxime Waters, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have done nothing about this ethnic cleansing and attempted genocide that was going on in Los Angeles and elsewhere. They spend too much time attacking the mythological KKK or the very real Korean grocers as threats to blacks, while blacks were being killed by their fellow people of color, and, as this story showed, really killed and really run out of neighborhoods.

And this went on for years, ignored by every administration, including Obama, who is seeking to bring in more illegal aliens with amnesty and settling terrorists from around the world in America. http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=31670

Blacks need to learn that whites aren't the only target of the radical left's policy of replacing the American population with third world immigrants, even violently if necessary.

But back to Janet Reno Napalitano and the dog that did not bark, ICE being missing in action. The law enforcement philosophy of the FBI is to be involved in everything and to apply no long term enforcement action to any law enforcement problem. Why, because long term application to a problem results in little publicity, which is the FBIs lifeline. In some ways this is justified, as the U.S. Attorney's Offices (USAO) and the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice (main Justice) are as fickle as the prom queen on crime. One day a certain crime is priority, the next day another crime is the priority. An agent can bring an excellent case to main Justice or a USAO and have it rejected outright for a number of reasons, the most important being that it is not the crime du jour or, more importantly, there are so many federal crimes and consequently so many possible federal criminals, main Justice and USAOs have what are called prosecution guidelines, which are in fact minimums, minimum losses, that they will not prosecute unless forced to by publicity. And the black lives lost and the ethnic cleansing did not meet the Justice Department mandatory minimum loss.

The poor Varrio Hawaiian Gardens got caught up in some bad publicity and crimes that the FBI would not investigate, much less the USAO not prosecute, suddenly became an issue.

However, the illegal aliens and legal aliens that make up the Varrio Hawaiian Gardens, and their criminal history, were for a long time not an interest of the legacy Immigration and Naturalization Service then, nor of ICE now, despite the fact that the legacy INS and ICE's primary responisibilty if arresting illegal aliens and legal aliens involved in general criminal activity.

The Varrio Hawaiian Gardens can rest easy that this will be the only action taken against them, as Janet Reno Napalitano has instructed ICE to concentrate on arresting business owners who hire illegals and aliens already in the criminal justice system. In one case, the investigation of business owners, will result in ICE spending long fruitless hours trying to prove an employer hired illegals when all an illegal has to do is show a document that is facially apparently valid to gain employment. Counterfeit documents, most of good quality are widely available. And, because an employer may not reject a document or face legal action by the Deparment of Justice itself, any investigation into employer culpability is going to be long hours of wasted investigative time and resources. The ICE emphasis on aliens in the criminal justice system will not be as fruitless, but will be of little effect. Illegal aliens in the justice system will be easily removed, but the huge numbers of legal aliens will not go so easily, as they will have extensive rights in removal proceedings, and will be able to draw out their proceedings in immigration and appealate courts.

What is needed is the long term application of immigration law enforcement throughout the country. But, Los Angeles is a defacto sanctuary from immigration enforcement. ICE will not apply the resources or the techniques to find and arrest large numbers of illegals. In cases like Hawaiian Gardens, the most effective technique is a sweep of the town for illegals; deploying large numbers of agents on the streets to question and arrest illegal aliens, including targeting schools, welfare offices, places of employment and the commericial establishments that illegal patronize. A long term effort would also include using federal and state databases of welfare and health care recipients that would expose illegal aliens, but also discourage the illegals from coming for the benefits they cannot get in their country of origin.

But, just as Janet Reno Napalitano refused to participate in the investigation into the murders of blacks by illegal and legal aliens, she is refusing to take any action to cleanse Hawaiian Gardens of the sea in which the killers swim, the illegal and legal alien population. That is the story of immigration law enforcement under Obama. And dead Americans are the cost of that policy. But Obama is only concerned about the rights of terrorists, not the right of Americans to life, liberty, and property.
