Who Will Do The Job Some Americans a/k/a ICE Won’t Do?
By Debbie Schlussel
My late dad used to have a great saying, “Cast thy sh-t upon the waters,” a take on the Biblical “Cast thy bread upon the waters,” meaning the crap you spread to others will float back to you in multiples.
Sadly, the multiples of floating excrement are coming back to us and not those supposed to be the head honchos of enforcing immigration laws.
A few days ago, The ICE Princess a/k/a incompetent Immigration and Customs Enforcement Chieftess Julie L. Myers sent a mass e-mail to ICE agents, informing them about how some controversial former ICE employees got an award from President Bush.
But here’s the real award ICE deserves, the “Cast Thy Sh-t Upon the Waters” Award. When you read this story, you’ll see yet another reason why.
Thanks to the tip from reader Carla, who wrote, “From my local newspaper, The Sealy News, Austin County, Texas. Typical ICE, my tax dollars hard at work.”
A routine traffic stop along Interstate Highway 10 turned into a chase for officers with the Austin County Sheriff’s Office that ultimately ended in the arrest of six subjects from Guatemala.
The subjects were in the process of being transported from Mexico to the United States illegally, according to the ACSO.
The chase began after Sgt. Virgil Price stopped a vehicle along I-10. When he approached it, the vehicle took off. Eventually, officers found the vehicle, along with the six subjects in a ravine of the Little Bernard Creek, about 400 yards south of the interstate.
The vehicle – an old Jeep Cherokee – was reported stolen out of Houston and has been sent to the Houston Police Department for disposition. Although six subjects were found, two were not, including the coyote, or person who was getting paid to drive them into the country, according to Lt. Al Cordeiro. . . .
With several subjects under arrest, the ACSO contacted the Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office out of Houston to take the subjects into custody. But ICE decline to come pick up the illegal aliens, and they were subsequently released.
“We’ve run into this many times in the past,” Cordeiro said. “Unless you have 40 or 50 of them, (ICE) won’t bother coming to pick them up. (ICE) tells us to get their names and turn them loose.”
And the ACSO cannot hold the illegal aliens, so that is their only option. . . .
So the ACSO had no option but to release the six subjects, even though they entered the country illegally.
How many times have I written about this exact same story? Different location, same consequences, same ICE blow-off.
Exit question: So when does Julie “Blackface Expert” Myers get her bundle of floating waste?
Some time after December, let’s hope.
Oh, and when will something called immigration enforcement actually start happening in earnest? Don’t hold your breath for that to happen come January . . . no matter who occupies the White House.
This is not a new phenomenon! This was the standard action of the former INS. Now with the morons at the helm of this ship of fools (majority Legacy Customs) there is not even an understanding of what needs to be done and how! It’s gotten worse!
