When they say “Asian,” is it a euphemism for Muslim Pakistani as in the UK, or is it “Asian” as in the way they used it in the Virginia Tech massacre?
I won’t venture a guess, lest I get the gazillions of Nazi-funded Media Matters zombies after me, yet again.
Still, I find it ironic that this agency, which enables illegal aliens in our midst and helps them game the system, has now been attacked and hostages have been taken there. I hope the injured are okay and pray for them, but I’m not going to hold back in saying that it’s to be expected that a place that enables illegal aliens eventually, sooner or later, has these kinds of problems. You play with matches, eventually you’ll ignite a fire.
Hmmm. . . What was the guy’s immigration status? Just asking.

At least four people are shot at the American Civic Association in Binghamton and about 40 people have been taken hostage.

Four people have been removed from the building on stretchers and taken to hospitals. The Binghamton SWAT team is on the scene, along with a negotiator.
The SWAT team is getting ready to re-enter the building. The shooter is still inside, police said.
There are reportedly 41 hostages in the building — 15 in a closet and 26 in the boiler room.
Family members of the hostages and victims are gathering at 232 Main St. in Binghamton, scanner reports indicated.
At least two ambulances from the scene have arrived at Wilson Regional Medical Center. . . .
One male was down with a woman shot in the stomach, according to a police radio. The female victim was a secretary.
Police have since called for 10 ambulances.
Binghamton Mayor Matthew Ryan, who was at the scene, said there was a hostage situation in the Civic Association building, located at 131 Front St. Ryan said the shooter has a high-powered rifle. . . .
The suspect was described as an Asian male, between 5-feet 8-inches and 6 feet tall, wearing a bright green nylon jacket and dark-rimmed glasses. He’s described as being in his 20s. . . .
The American Civic Association helps immigrants and refugees with immigration and personal counseling, resettlement, citizenship, family reunification and translators. It also intervenes with emergencies, including fighting, hunger and homelessness, according to information from the association’s website.

“Immigrants and refugees”? They’re mostly illegal aliens. This falsely-named organization helps them stay here and often become citizens.
One wonders what the immigration status of the hostage taker/shooter is. Stay tuned.
**** UPDATE: Just went to the American Civic Association website. Get this:

Fosters cross cultural understanding for the entire community.
United Way 2009 allocations: Casework and Technical, $26,670; Refugee Program, $5,195

Ah, the good old “cross cultural understanding” BS. Doesn’t seem to have averted a giant crisis here.
And then there’s your United Way contribution. Congrats. If you gave to United Way, you gave to helping their “refugee” program a/k/a helping illegal aliens. Ditto for their “casework.”
And now with this hostage situation, this is an extreme example of karma. You enable the problems, they turn on you.
Read more about this vessel of political correctness and alien invasion, which was founded by 11 illegal aliens.
**** UPDATE #2: As a friend, whose husband works for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), notes:

You realize that now every illegal in that building now gets paroled into the U.S. as a material witness in a capital crime?
Paroled in WITH work authorization!

Sadly, she’s right. Only in America. Whatta country.
**** UPDATE #3: Sadly, 12 or 13 reported dead. Tragic.
**** UPDATE #4: Shooter is identified. But did center aliens violate the law by taking the citizenship test in a language other than English? It appears so.
