Fort Smith city government—constitutionally challenged–political cowards–or both? 10/29/10
Not to bore, Arkansas is one of 50 sovereign states. The federal government has 17 specific obligations.
The Constitution is NOT a living document, therefore one of the 17 obligations is to protect the several states’ borders and repel invaders. The federal government has been criminally derelict in failing to secure those borders; therefore, are Arkansans ready to stake their economic and political safety on the single belief held by Gov. Mike Beebe, i.e. be damned with the illegal Mexican invasion; it’s simply a “federal problem� Conclusion: it is obvious that Beebe is a paid shill for those industries and businesses hiring illegals, i.e. Wal-Mart, Tyson’s, OK Foods, Simmons, et al or a political self-serving coward who has no stomach to secure his constituency. Which?
The Founders were explicit in stating that if the federal government did not comply with the wishes of the citizenry and the demands of the Constitution, that states could and should remove themselves from a corrupt compact, e.g. the federal government or remove them at the ballot box. Suggestion: Boozman, Lincoln, Beebe just for starters. See “Is Rep. Boozman the man you think he is?†arkansasfreedom.net.
An example and examination of the mentality of Boobus Arkanicus occurred in a barbershop debate today (10/29/10). Four or five customers bloviating about voting out all incumbents, when the smoke cleared the question was posed, “Who are you voting for in the U.S. Senate race?†They all proclaimed in different verbiage “we ain’t voting for that womanâ€â€¦.â€we’re going to vote for Boozmanâ€. It was suggested that Boozman had been in the D.C. cesspool for 10 yrs and involved in numerous political and economic mischief, most if not all unconstitutional. They responded by stating “he hadn’t been in the Senateâ€. So much for Boobus Arkanicus.
Where is it said in the U.S. Constitution that elected and appointed officials cannot interrogate Hispanics who do not speak English and are suspected of being in our presence illegally? Answer, nowhere.
To make the point, a news story in the Times Record 10/22/10 titled “Citizens Air Neighborhood Crime Problems to Policeâ€.
The question was posed by a local citizen asking what police could do about the illegal immigrant problem in Ft. Smith.
Fort Smith police Captain Ed Smalley offered these torturous, convoluted statements (which posed questions, not answers). Capt. Smalley said “unless a suspected undocumented immigrant violated a city ordinance or Arkansas law (they violated the law of the land by being here—never mind citizens’ security) they cannot be arrested by local police. (Why and on whose orders?) However, if a suspected illegal immigrant was convicted of a crime, deported and then returned to the area; local police then have the power to arrest.†(Wow, what a deal) Smalley explained that the “person may be in violation (may be?) of being an aggravated deported alien.†(If they can’t be questioned, how would the police ever know that they’ve been convicted or deported? In fact, how would they ever be arrested initially if they can’t be questioned?)
The above quotes are then negated by Officer Smalley himself who said “I don’t care if they’re an immigrant, resident, or an astronaut; if they are breaking the law we’re going to arrest themâ€. So which is it? They’ve broken the law by being here and if you can’t interrogate, how do you arrest? Not being able to racially profile is nonsense…it’s not Eskimos breaking into our country. The Ft. Smith Board of Directors, the Mayor, the City Manager, Chief of Police, Sheriff are all too cowardly to use the phrase “illegal alien†in public discourse. (an immigrant is someone who comes here LEGALLY) Certainly, the city government is unwilling to discuss the crisis emanating from the illegal Mexican invasion, i.e. jobs, health, crime, schools, gangs, etc. A small matter to the esteemed “public servants†is the thousands of jobs the illegals are stealing from Arkansans, their presence being paid for by middleclass Arkansans and the booty being made by the likes of the Tyson’s, Simmons, OK Foods, Wal-Mart and the illegal Mexicans are sure as hell not “in the shadowsâ€.
The city of Fort Smith is a sanctuary city. Not one of our alleged public servants has taken meaningful action against the illegal invasion nor will they speak about the ongoing economic rape going on in the city.
Ft. Smith routinely violates an Arkansas state statute which says Arkansas state government entities shall not contract with businesses hiring illegals or subbing to companies hiring illegals. In conjunction with the above, does the Ft. Smith public school system buy products manufactured by OK Foods, Tyson’s, Simmons, Pilgrim’s Pride, Georges, and many others, not necessarily food sources? If so, they are in violation of state law. Who is holding all the corrupt government entities accountable?
The answer is obvious…no one.
Conclusion: The Tea Partiers shout “we’re going to take back our countryâ€â€¦no they ain’t. Too many still worship at the altar of the Republican party and they are too ignorant to understand that having the chance to take back this Republic….ALL incumbents must be bounced…that’s BOTH parties Boobi. But Boobus Arkanicus will vote for John Boozman, Mike Beebe, Mike Ross, Dustin McDaniel (don’t forget Mike Huckabee) because they are softspoken so-called “nice guys†and Boobus Arkanicus are too lazy to initiate research on the votes these traitors have cast and the political positions they defend, apparently not realizing the aforementioned “nice guys†are the reason we have sunk into a political & economic abyss.
The United States has become a rogue nation instituted by both political parties and individual freedoms are about to achieve non-existence. Failures to secure our borders and control legal immigration properly have demoted the U.S. from a 1st World society to a 3rd World multicultural gulag. As just one example, a tacit examination of the Fort Smith police department and the Sebastian County Sheriff’s office will quickly reveal they have become militarized organizations, as is the case across America. Question: who are the police taking their orders from and why are they involved in selective law enforcement, i.e. not arresting illegal aliens and those hiring them as directed by federal law 8 USC. So, whose interests are they securing?
