"Chatham residents decry county's immigration stance"
Good old Chatham County, North Carolina, home of the "done deal" meaning our local and county governments have once again decided that five people in the county know what's good for all of us.
Sickening.
Although the statistics show Siler City, NC clearly has a massive number of immigrants at 39% of the population and the county is nearing a 10% immigrant population, the local yahoos have decided they need no assistance from the Federal enforcement agency, ICE. This despite the fact that FIVE surrounding counties with similar immigrant populations have actively encouraged this ICE connection.
There was a horrendous accident on the I40 beltline in Raleigh in the last 48 hours. An immigrant - who is being investigated as to his legal status since he was in Wake County, not Chatham - caused an accident - obviously negligence - that has one legal citizen of this country fighting for his life in the burn ward.
Want to bet the driver had not only no license, but no insurance, and that he "No habla'd" when asked to provide proof of either?
This is an outrageous burden to put on legal citizens of this country and I see it nearly every day. More schools to educate illegal children or anchor children. WIC and food stamp programs all but tapped out. Citizens who pay over a $1000 per year for required insurance hit, maimed or killed by those apparently NOT required to have any at all.
The Chatham County Board of Commissioners has done a major disservice to the residents of Chatham County, of which I am one. I am tired of being forced to promote illegal activity with my tax dollars and I demand as much assistance with the illegal immigrant problem as we can get.
Otherwise, just say, "Welcome to North Mexico"....sanctuary cities inside a sanctuary county inside a sanctuary state....
