Last week, Barack Obama appointee, U.S. District Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman of Illinois, ruled that an Illinois law banning illegal immigrants from owning firearms was a violation of the 2nd Amendment. So now, it is Constitutionally legal for illegal aliens to carry guns. Judge Coleman wrote, “The noncitizen possession statute … violates the Second Amendment as applied to [the defendant] Carbajal-Flores.” She continued by stating, “Carbajal-Flores has never been convicted of a felony, a violent crime, or a crime involving the use of a weapon.” That statement is curious because the defendant is undocumented, so how can she attest to his past criminal history, when he has spent most of his life in another country and the Judge does not have access to criminal records from his country of origin?
And then on Saturday, as if it was coordinated, Attorney General Merrick Garland stated in a press release that the DOJ has created a new agency to enforce, the Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs) – an agency put in place to enforce “red flag” laws which allows for authorities to confiscate firearms from legal citizens whom the court deems to be a risk to himself or others. ERPOs also prevent a person from buying or possessing a gun for the duration of the order. So, at the same time that our government has made it Constitutional for illegal aliens – people who have willfully violated our federal laws – to carry guns in our country, our DOJ is devising more and more ways to take guns out of the hands of United States citizens. It seems that the only group of people that the left does not want to take guns out of their hands, are military age illegal immigrants, who we know nothing about, who could be a criminal alien, an MS-13 gang member, or a drug smuggler.
Most people on the left will repeat the untruth that illegal immigrants are less likely than United States citizens to commit crimes. Actually, they are considerably more likely because every single one of them committed a federal crime by entering our country illegally and staying here. But those claiming that illegal aliens are less likely to commit crimes, make that claim because there is a smaller percentage of illegal aliens incarcerated in our prisons than American citizens. They do not factor in that most of the crime committed in our country occurs in our major cities, and most of our major cities have deemed themselves sanctuary cities which means they refuse to arrest illegal aliens, even if they have committed a crime because that would get them deported.
In the state of Texas – which is not a sanctuary state – between June 1, 2011, and February 29, 2024, 301,000 illegal aliens were charged with more than 517,000 criminal offenses, most of which were violent in nature, such as homicide, assault, burglary, kidnapping, armed robbery and sexual assault. And those numbers are in Texas alone. Imagine the extent of the record of illegal alien criminality if there were no sanctuary states or cities, and all criminal aliens were captured and punished accordingly. But the left refuses to punish illegals. The Democrats in the Senate blocked The Laken Riley Act which would have required ICE to arrest illegal aliens who commit theft, burglary, larceny, or shoplifting offenses and would mandate that these aliens are detained until they are removed from the United States. The only people who would oppose that legislation want to have as many criminal aliens in our country as possible.
It is clear that the people on the left have little care about actual United States citizens, and are only concerned with enabling and protecting illegal immigrants. There are US citizens rotting in the DC prisons right now, with their only crime being trespassing at the Capitol on January 6. They never committed an act of violence or vandalism. Many of them were ushered into the Capitol by the Capitol police, and they walked around the Rotunda for a few minutes, and left. One of the people that day, an unarmed 130-pound woman, was shot to death and the police officer who shot her from over 20 feet away was given a medal. Meanwhile, a mob of over 500 military age male foreign nationals, broke through a barrier at the Texas Southern border, and attacked the National Guardsmen who were protecting our border. How many of those foreign nationals will spend any time in jail? And if any of those National Guardsmen shot and killed even one of those invaders, he would be facing decades in prison, not given a medal. See how the Democrats protect their seat of power while making the lives of everyday Americans more and more dangerous.
Last week, Donald Trump said that Chuck Schumer and all the Jewish Democrats in Congress who continually vote for and support policies which enable Islamic terrorism against Israel, “hate their religion”. Likewise, it is clear that many people on the left and many Democrats hate their country and hate the citizens of their country, because they are actively destroying the country by purposely allowing illegal immigrants to enter our country in the millions, and allow those illegals to legally carry firearms.
On Sunday, Vice President Kamala Harris said that the Biden administration had not ruled out "consequences" for Israel if it attacked Hamas in Rafah. Israel is doing what it has to do in Gaza, what we used to do, but no longer do. They are doing whatever they have to in order to protect and defend their country from people who want to destroy it. The problem in America is the people in charge, are the ones who are actively trying to destroy America. They are not only complicit in our destruction; they are willingly promoting our destruction.
How else would you explain the Democrats ending up on the wrong side of almost every conflict. They support the terrorists over Israel. They support illegal aliens over United States citizens. They support the violent criminals over the law-abiding citizens. They support groomers over protecting our children. They support delusional men playing in women’s sports over women athletes. They supported the BLM rioters burning down businesses in the inner-city over the Black and Asian store owners. Why would they continually choose to be on the wrong side of all these issues? These are not complicated or nuanced decisions. It is obvious. The left and the Democrats are for destroying Western society over defending Western society. And every day with every one of their decisions, our country and our society is pushed closer and closer to our destruction.

We would be justified in SCREAMING to Heaven that the Godless Left needs to stop their madness.
The behavior of the Brandon Administration, and their Judicial System, media, and big (profiteering) business allies has gone beyond any appropriate rational analysis and rebutal. During the 20th Century, there existed times of great political disagreements, but neither side had ever gone stark mad crazy as we now experience. There needs to be massive voter rejection of the Democrat Party, now led by Leftist crazies, such as Brandon, Garland, Wray, Schumer, and AOC in November.
