A Reason for, and Cause of, the Tragic Hispanic Illegal Immigration Tsunami

There have been definite and understandable causes for the continual proliferation of millions of illegal Hispanic aliens into the continental United States from across the U.S. Southern Border over the past 50 years. Yet, most of the senators and representatives in the U.S. Congress, who, over the decades, have catered to the minority Hispanic vote for re-election purposes have deliberately and detrimentally avoided facing these causes, and the issues they present to welfare of the American republic, and to the purview of the majority of the American electorate. It was Will Rogers who once insightfully quipped that, “society’s major problems are hardly ever solved when their solutions keep illegal political gain from accruing.”

A recent article in the “Washington Examiner” was written to make it seem a heinous injustice for ICE and state law enforcement to actively seek out and deport Hispanic illegal aliens who have actually committed immigration crimes, and who continue to commit crimes in order to avoid detection, apprehension, and arrest by federal and state authorities, misdemeanor felony crimes tantamount to recedivist shoplifting and worse. An example was given in this article of one particular Hispanic woman, one who legally obtained a visa to remain in the United States for a specifically definite period of time. While legally in the United States, this woman became pregnant and had several children, who, because of their birth status, were immediately regarded as natural born citizens. The woman then deliberately remained in the United States, with her children, for quite a while after her visa expired.

The “Examiner” article suggested that the woman somehow had a right to be free of investigation, arrest, and deportation by ICE for deliberately disregarding her expired visa status, and minimized the crime that she knowingly and intentionally committed. As an absurd analysis of law and its application to federal criminal justice, this article was written propagandishly to stimulate mere sympathy for illegal immigrant lawbreakers. You see, the primary, and very obvious, reason for 90-or-more percent of the illegal Hispanic females having illicitly flocked across the Southern U.S. border is to have children in the United States. They know that, if they bear children on American soil, U.S. immigration judges, many of whom are Hispanic, will be more apt to ‘compassionately” allow them to stay in the country to take care of their “citizen” children.

Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History: Margaret Sanger

There is no question that when we look into the lives of inspirational women, every woman born in the Western world today has been influenced by Margaret Sanger. The fact that as women we enjoy reproductive rights stems from a the vigilant hard work of this very controversial woman. She is still controversial (the web being filled with claims of racism, eugenics, etc.) and this is indicative of the time she lived and the kinds of ideas that thinking people were hashing about during the early 1900s. But who was this woman who had such effect? This article tries to unpack the life and ideas of this inspirational woman.

Difficulties of women in childbirth, and strong radical political activities were used to gather through out Margaret’s life. Born Margaret Louise Higgins she was the middle child in a family of 11 children. Her father was known as a freethinking man and his politics must have had influenced her, as did watching her mother died at age 50 after 18 pregnancies. Her own reproductive life was made more difficult by frequent bouts of tuberculosis, although she had three children with her husband William Sanger. Two other influences come into play as she and her husband enjoyed the radical political intellectual world of Greenwich Village in New York City in the early 1900s, at the same time she worked as a visiting nurse in city tenements.

Who knows or understands the difficulties taken on during a single-handed pursuit of what you think is right? That both of the Sanger stopped at reproductive rights were right is clear when you follow their history from 1910 to 1920. First Margaret wrote a pamphlet called family limitation, at the same time she wrote articles and a free publication known as the woman radical. This brought her up against the federal postal obscenity laws of the time and she flees to England while her husband remained in the US distributing her work. In 1915 when he was arrested she came home to face the charges against her but personal tragedy in the form of the death of her five-year-old daughter aroused public sympathy and the charges were dismissed. While in Europe, she visited Holland, thinking back to the United States with a sense of what birth control could be. This prompted her work in public health resulting in lines of Jewish Italian immigrant women crowding into our clinics daily.
