Refugee Crisis in the U. S. (?)

[B-Man]

The Obama Administration “grossly misrepresented” the number of crimes the criminal aliens it released from custody in FY 2014 subsequently committed by nearly tenfold, the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) charges.

 

 

According to FAIR, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) records the Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI) obtained via a Freedom of Information Act (FIOA) request on FAIR’s behalf reveal that the 30,558 criminal aliens ICE released in FY 2014 committed 13,288 additional crimes.

The number of subsequent convictions contained in FIOA documents is far higher than the 1,423 additional offenses ICE reported to the House Judiciary Committee last July.

The criminal aliens released in FY 2014 who went on to commit those additional crimes had convictions for offenses like homicide, kidnapping, assault, sexual assault, and drunk driving. The new crimes, according to ICE’s report to Congress, included vehicular homicide, domestic violence, sexual assault, DUI, burglary and assault.

Good for some laughs but it wouldn't even be remotely funny if it weren't remotely true:

 

 

Before You Put Your Camel to Bed

Jiggs McDonald, NHL Hall of Fame broadcaster speaking in Ontario, says: "I am truly perplexed that so many of my friends are against another mosque being built in Toronto. I think it should be the goal of every Canadian to be tolerant regardless of their religious beliefs. Thus the mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance."

"That is why I also propose that two nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque; thereby promoting tolerance from within the mosque. We could call one of the clubs, which would be gay, "The Turban Cowboy," and the other, a topless bar, would be called "You Mecca Me Hot."

"Next door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork, and adjacent to that an open-pit barbecue pork restaurant, called “Iraq of Ribs."

“Across the street there could be a lingerie store called "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret," with sexy mannequins in the window modeling the goods", and on the other side a liquor store called "Morehammered."

"All of this would encourage Muslims to demonstrate the tolerance they demand of us.”

Yes we should promote tolerance, and you can do your part by passing this on. And if you are not laughing or smiling at this point... It is either past your bedtime, or its midnight at the oasis and time to put your camel to bed.

Isn’t it obvious?

Yes! It’s so clear! We should import more weird, backward, dull-witted, useless, and inassimilable civilizational disasters, many of which have produced nothing more technologically challenging than the pointed stick. What could be a better idea?

Obama immigration plan blocked by 4-4 tie at Supreme Court #WATE http://bit.ly/28PbSxi

 

WASHINGTON (AP) — A tie vote by the Supreme Court is blocking President Barack Obama’s immigration plan that sought to shield millions living in the U.S. illegally from deportation.

 

The justices’ one-sentence opinion on Thursday effectively kills the plan for the duration of Obama’s presidency.

 

A tie vote sets no national precedent but leaves in place the ruling by the lower court. In this case, the federal appeals court in New Orleans said the Obama administration lacked the authority to shield up to 4 million immigrants from deportation and make them eligible for work permits without approval from Congress.

 

Texas led 26 Republican-dominated states in challenging the program Obama announced in November 2014. Congressional Republicans also backed the states’ lawsuit.

 

 

 

 

Oh fun Obama is going to come out and yell about the Supreme Court. It's time to get scolded again

 

Damn it, we're always "letting him down"..................

I hope he walks in the briefing room and sits on the floor

 

 

 

 

So now that Dems lost on executive amnesty, will they be inviting DREAMers to another pizza selfie sit-in protest on House floor tonite?

It doesn't matter. They'll continue to issue work permits and just say they don't.

I'm sure that Bill De Blasio uttered these words without any sense of irony

 

“I share with them a sense of profound disappointment and, in fact, anger at the decision by the Supreme Court, because, with the stroke of a pen, the hopes of millions have been dashed"

I'd love to know on what legal basis 4 justices supported Obama's executive action. Will be looking for that when I have time.

The Supreme Court’s Rebuke to Obama’s Amnesty

Responding to the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold the injunction against his Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents (DAPA) executive amnesty and the attempted expansion of his Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals ​(DACA) program, President Obama declared that the Court’s ruling “takes us further from the country that we aspire to be.” The president is exactly wrong. What we ought to aspire to be is a country of laws (with a rational immigration policy), and the Supreme Court has struck a blow toward that end.

In late 2014, the Obama administration unveiled a plan to grant unilateral amnesty to more than 4 million illegal immigrants residing in the United States, in addition to the more than 2 million illegal immigrants potentially excused under DACA. The president claimed that DAPA, like DACA before it, was nothing more than an exercise in “prosecutorial discretion.”

Characteristically, Obama refused to acknowledge that half of the Supreme Court and half of the nation’s state attorneys general might have valid legal arguments for opposing his executive amnesty. He opted instead to insinuate that his opponents were bigots engaging in a politics of fear, trying to “wall [them]selves off from those who may not look like us right now, or pray like we do, or have a different last name.” He went so far as to assert that the Supreme Court’s decision forces us “to decide whether we’re a people who accept the cruelty of ripping children from their parents’ arms, or whether we actually value families.”

San Diego -------- "Lost Capitol of the Confederacy" ?

 

 

POLL: Most San Diego-ans would pay $4,000 more in taxes to Deport Illegal Aliens

 

 

The American Mirror:

A new poll of San Diego, California residents finds the vast majority would support a massive tax hike to deport illegal aliens.

The survey

, conducted by KGTV and the San Diego Union-Tribune, reveals 61% of respondents would pay an additional $4,000 per taxpayer “to deport America’s illegal immigrants.”

Just 29% said they would not.

The poll also found 54% believe “people who have entered the United States without proper documentation” should be deported, while 34% say they should be allowed to stay.

When it comes to presidential candidates, a plurality believe Donald Trump has the “better approach” to immigration.

According to the poll, 47% side with Trump’s proposals, while 37% support Hillary Clinton.

Breaking the results down by race, blacks and Hispanics are supporting Trump’s proposals in bigger numbers than whites.

On the same question, the poll finds 53% of blacks and 50% of Hispanics side with Trump, compared to 31% and 30% respectively for Clinton. Trump’s advantage is slightly narrower among whites, 47% to 40%.

Considering that this amnesty applies mostly to people who've already been here for years...no, they're explicitly not asking them to leave.

http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/patrick-goodenough/11491-syrian-refugees-resettled-us-15-over-target-046-are-Christians

 

(CNSNews.com) – With three weeks of the fiscal year to go, the Obama administration has exceeded its Syrian refugee admission target by 15 percent, with 11,491 resettled in the United States as of the beginning of this week.

 

Since President Obama’s goal of 10,000 Syrian refugee admissions in FY 2016 was achieved on August 29, the number continues to pick up steadily.

 

August ended with a new monthly record of 3,189 Syrian refugee arrivals, and a further 751 have been ushered in so far in September: 749 Sunni Muslims; two Catholic Christians.

 

State Department Refugee Processing Center data show that of the now total 11,491 arrivals this fiscal year, the vast majority – 11,300, or 98.33 percent – are Sunnis.

 

Just 54 of the 11,491 – 0.46 percent – are Christians. They comprise 14 Catholics, six Orthodox, four Protestants, one Greek Orthodox, plus 29 refugees identifying themselves simply as “Christian” rather than by denomination or sect.

 

The remaining 137 are made of up of 20 Shi’a Muslims, 90 refugees described simply as Muslims, 17 Yazidis, four Jehovah’s Witnesses, five refugees identified as “other religion,” and one as having “no religion.”

 

Millions of Syrians of all religious persuasions have fled the civil war that has ravaged their country since mid-2011. At the start of the conflict an estimated 74 percent of Syrians were Sunni and an estimated 10 percent were Christians.

 

Since the civil war began, the U.S. has admitted a total of 13,364 Syrian refugees, of whom 13,019 (97.4 percent) are Sunnis and 102 (0.7 percent) are Christians.

 

The remainder include Shi’a Muslims (33), other Muslims (150), Yazidis (18), Jehovah’s Witnesses (12), Zoroastrians (6), refugees self-reported as having “no religion” (8), refugees identifying themselves as “other religion” (11), atheists (3) and Baha’i (2).

 

Under the 1951 Refugee Convention, persecution on the grounds of religion is one of five criteria for determining whether an applicant should be granted refugee status (the others relate to race, nationality, political opinion or membership of a particular social group.)

The United States Bars Christian, Not Muslim, Refugees From Syria

by Elliott Abrams

The title of this blog post–The United States Bars Christian, Not Muslim, Refugees From Syria–will strike many readers as ridiculous.

But the numbers tell a different story: The United States has accepted 10,801 Syrian refugees, of whom 56 are Christian. Not 56 percent; 56 total, out of 10,801. That is to say, one half of one percent. The BBC says that ten percent of all Syrians are Christian, which would mean 2.2 million Christians. It is quite obvious, and President Obama and Secretary Kerry have acknowledged it, that Middle Eastern Christians are an especially persecuted group.

So how is it that one half of one percent of the Syrian refugees we’ve admitted are Christian, or 56, instead of about 1,000 out of 10,801–or far more, given that they certainly meet the legal definition? The definition: someone who “is located outside of the United States; Is of special humanitarian concern to the United States; Demonstrates that they were persecuted or fear persecution due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.” Somewhere between a half million and a million Syrian Christians have fled Syria, and the United States has accepted 56. Why?

“This is de facto discrimination and a gross injustice,” Nina Shea, who is director of the Hudson Institute’s Center for Religious Freedom, told Fox News. Fox notes another theory: that the United States takes refugee referrals from the UN refugee camps in Jordan and there are no Christians there.

Out of how many that have applied?

The other theory is more plausible. Syrian Christians never make it to the refugee camps.

The other theory is more plausible. Syrian Christians never make it to the refugee camps.

 

Which relates directly to my question anyway. If they don't make it to refugee camps, they're not in the system and don't apply for entry as a refugee.
