Dear All
Have you ever ‘got into’ youtube in a big way? Most people
use youtube as an entertainment platform, but it is a serious piece of learning
and education, if you know where to look. You can find pretty much anything and
everything put up, from funny vids to serious politics, cartoons to full
movies, hobbyist stuff to professional tuition.
One of the things which I like to watch is documentaries,
they are very educational; one channel is called prison documentaries which
looks at the prison system in America
both federal and county.
Here is an example of the videos on that channel:
In America ,
there is a gang system in prison of various factions, one of the factions os a violent
MS-13, this street gang is made up of illegal immigrants from Mexico who are
involved in violent crime and drugs. The situation in America regarding
violent crime is well known as are the people who engage in it. However,
despite knowing of the problem, the situation hasn’t been dealt with until the
arrival of President Donald Trump.
You may not like Trump, but he is different, he is a
President that means to get things done such as tackling securing the US border and
overhauling the current immigration system. Although, he is best known for his
stance on ‘the wall’, a barrier to stop illegal immigration, a piece of legislation
has been passed on Thursday that would make suspected membership in the violent
MS-13 street
gang a sufficient cause for deportation.
As you know, I blogged on measures to strengthen the
European Union before I realised that the political will did not exist to fix
it. Europe is headed for generations of
instability. What is needed is a pan European piece of legislation which
mirrors the American legislation to permanently problem individuals and
criminal gangs.
What has been passed in America is groundbreaking stuff to
be such because criminal gangs like MS-13 pose a national security threat as
they are linked to the Mexican drug cartels.
The House passed H.R. 3697 in response to MS-13’s growing violence
and its ties to Mexican drug cartels. Section 2(b) of the bill makes suspected
membership in a “criminal gang” (including MS-13) sufficient cause to ban for
life a foreigner from entering the United States .
Section 2(c) of the bill makes membership in a criminal gang
or involvement in any criminal gang activity grounds for immediate deportation.
Whether this Bill goes the distance and is passed by
Congress remains to be seen but already the American Civil Liberties Union and
other left wing civil-rights groups, are claiming that the legislation is
inconsistent with due process and other constitutional rights.
If you view the many prison documentaries on the Mexican
gang problem, this would be seen as a no brainer, and the fact that the
Democrats are opposing this is unbelievable, lots of people came out against
Trump, I didn’t, America ’s
Democrats aren’t the party that cares for the people.
Dinesh D'Souza makes a compelling case when he argues
against do illegal aliens have constitutional rights.
My interest in this story is that the legislation used could
be transplanted to Europe and tackle a growing problem, violence in Europe is on the increase, people are training for
conflict.
If you look at 1.30 minutes into the video, you see training
taking place, when the breakdown comes, certain people and groups will be
better equipped. What you are looking at is people who know that the political
elite have failed them and decided that being engaged in their process is fruitless.
Europe needs new leaders, question is where will they come
from, and when will they reset Europe, if it can’t be done by legislation, the
bullet and the bomb seem to be the alternative. Isn't amazing how problems can easily be solved if you get the right type of leaders, people should be angry with the dross we have been saddled with.
Finally, sorry for the gap in blogging been really ill of late and cat sitting, yes, life if full of surprises.
Yours sincerely

Pretty soon the troubles of the European Union will no longer be ours. We will be free to legislate, deport and block entry to this country as we see fit. Europe can rot as far as I'm concerned.
You're not wrong about the Mexican gangs - for example, have you heard of the Mexican town of Juarez? It is - or was - the most violent city in the world outside of a conflict zone, because of the drug cartels. Ross Kemp visited during his 'On Gangs' series and people were turning up dead in the streets repeatedly.
Hi Crookie
"WELCOME BACK GEORGIEBOY".
Thanks mate, feel better.

Hi Al C
Years ago a former Mexican President advocated that drugs should be legalised, I agree, kill the market and there is no money in it.

Missed your blog, maybe it’s the awful weather making you feel unwell, anyway, you keep healthy and keep writing.
