Ladies and Gentlemen,

The title of this article is one of the most progressive phone numbers you will ever see. It is the Sheriff Joe Illegal Hot-line. Progressive because he is doing something, whatever little it might actually be, it is something new, different, progressive.

Have you called it? I have many times. Reporting every bit of illegal activity I see from these people who are here illegally. According to the phone message you are supposed to call it if you see illegal activity..."crimes involving illegal immigration or human smuggling". Well in my book, and any law book you look at, if they are here illegally they are involved in "illegal immigration" and committing a crime by being here.

I see then on the corner daily. Not just any corner, the corner of 43rd Ave and Camelback Rd. or the corner of McDowell and 75th Ave. These are just two of the hot spots around town where Sheriff Joe should be rounding up illegal aliens for immediate repatriation to their home country. Call it profiling, I don't care, but 38 Hispanic men standing at the entrance to the Home Depot are Illegal.

So, as I said, I called and I reported, left my number and encouraged a call back from a Deputy. But alas, I have heard nothing. The Illegal Activity continues and the numbers do not seem to be diminishing. I call weekly to remind Sheriff Joe of his promise to fight Illegal Immigration and have encouraged him repeatedly to not just get a phone line, place a message on it and ignore the problem. I want to see action. I want Channels 12, 15, 3 and 10 all over this. I want people in the streets crying to stop this and I want to see giant truckloads of Illegals leaving our fine state and our great country daily to go home.

This will not happen unless we absolutely swamp the phone line, fill the mail box and show Joe that we are behind him every step of the way.

Now don't start placing words in my mouth about what a racist I am and how I hate Brown skinned people. Nothing could be farther from the truth. What I hate is seeing our country slowly infiltrated by people who are here Illegally and have no intention of becoming citizens. People who come to America under the cover of darkness or in the blazing sun and teach their kids Spanish over English. These people are not here for the benefit of their families because if that was their true intention they would be going out of their way to ensure their children learned English so they could have a chance to succeed.

No these people are here to take money in the hopes of returning to Mexico one day and retire on American dollars in the poor as dirt country. If the roles were reversed and I had to flee to Mexico with my kids to find good work and give them a future the first thing I would do is force my kids to learn Spanish so they could find good work and become something. I would also do everything in my power to get them there legally so they would have the needed documentation to succeed as a citizen.

But these people are leaches, thieves of a sort, here to steal wealth and return it to their country of origin regardless of which one it is. Canadians are as bad as the Central Americans and Mexicans who do it. There is no difference.

I'm not happy with Joe's attempt to make good on his words. A phone line is a great start but what is happening after that. I still see a problem. If I wanted empty promises I could have voted for any idiot on the ballot. Joe has a reputation of thinking outside the box and making things happen. Where is the happenings.

We passed a law that will surely go the way of all the others we have passed dealing with everything from English Only in the classroom to those on the books now that are ignored by every other law enforcement organization in the state to stop the employment of these people. It doesn't matter. Judges tainted by Liberal Bulls*** organizations saying they are good people who have an economic need to be here will always side with the loudest screamer. That's not us folks. The illegals got hundreds of thousands to march last year downtown to cry for their "rights". Rights my ass.

I will continue to call the number weekly to report "Crimes Involving Illegal Immigration" until I can't afford my phone anymore or until I see a difference.

I've said it before and I'll say it again... There will be no change until blood runs over the boarder, either ours or theirs.

But what would I know; I'm just an Average American.
