FOX News is three stories into a five-part series on the detrimental effects of illegal immigration. It’s a good reference to use when faced with naysayers who try to insinuate you’re a racist or claim that illegal immigration has no negative impact on the United States, as ridiculous as such charges are.
Part I: Illegal Immigration Influx May Compromise Security – I don’t know why FOX soft-peddles it with the title. Illegal immigration obviously compromises national security. Other than that, the story’s good. And beginning the series with national security sets the stage for the others.
Part II: For the they-just-come-here-to-work crowd, read Border States Grapple With Aliens. Get this: “In Los Angeles, 95 percent of all outstanding homicide warrants and 60 percent of outstanding felony warrants are for illegal aliens.” (Emphasis added)
Part III: L.A. Emergency Rooms Full of Illegal Immigrants. A healthcare worker came onto this blog and tried to argue that the “system” could easily absorb uninsured aliens. Half the country’s uninsured are illegal aliens, yet a system that’s weakening under the burden of…finishing the sentence is a waste of time, isn’t it?
Watch the videos, too.
