I used to have a hat with "US Immigration" on it and I'd wear it into the kitchen of a restaurant where I was friendly with most of the busboys. They knew me and all it did was draw laughs, but I guess those were more innocen times! http://washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.... Watch your back!

This is what I expect to happen more and more. They will be more forceful and intimidate the white aging gringos.

In Dallas, on the highways, I've seen big La Raza window stickers on the back windshields of cars.  No one says anything about that expression of "freedom of speech".  This guy wears a mock border enforcement hat, almost loses his job and gets shot at to boot.  I guess that part of the U.S. Constitution works for only certain groups.

7-11 {southland Corportion}is another corporation that should go right to the top of a BOYCOTT LIST for their pandering to the criminal invaders. It does't matter what is RIGHT, or WRONG anymore the only thing that is important is, IS IT PROFITABLE?

ABSOLUTELY UNBELEIVABLE what these greedy bas**rds won't do for a dollar!

I was trying to see if I could find anything in the news about whether or not these two were illegal or not.  This article states:

"Residents at the apartment tonight said they didn't know much about the men, partly because of a language barrier." 

and

"Strovink said the arrests came as a result of a 10-day, non-stop, bilingual investigation."

That could be telling.  Whether or not they're illegal, they deserve the maximum penalty for their atrocious crime.  Notice how one of them already had a warrant out for a previous drunk driving incident.

Cousins arrested in strangling of teen in Milwaukie

Gilberto Javier Rivera-Gamboa

 

Alejandro Rivera Gamboa

Two cousins are behind bars, charged with aggravated murder in the strangling of 15-year-old Dani Countryman, who was found dead late last month as others slept nearby in a Milwaukie apartment.

Authorities revealed few details of what led to the arrests, and much about the case -- including a possible motive -- remains a mystery.

Tonight, Detective Jim Strovink of the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office released terse descriptions of the suspects:

* Alejandro Emeterio "Alex" Rivera Gamboa, 24, has been in the county jail since his arrest at the scene the day her body was found, held on a probation violation warrant for driving under the influence.

* Gilberto Javier "Gabe" Rivera Gamboa, 23, a landscaper, was arrested this afternoon as he returned home to the Balboa Apartments on Southeast Courtney in Milwaukie, the complex where Countryman was slain July 28.

Residents at the apartment tonight said they didn't know much about the men, partly because of a language barrier.

The Gamboas, who do not appear to have a criminal history in Oregon, are scheduled to be arraigned at 3 p.m. Tuesday in Clackamas County Circuit Court in Oregon City. If convicted of aggravated murder, the men could face the death penalty.

Strovink said the arrests came as a result of a 10-day, non-stop, bilingual investigation. "We're thrilled," he said. "Everybody working on this wanted to bring a modicum of relief to the community and the family and friends of Dani Countryman."

Dani was vacationing in the Portland area with her sister, Ashley Countryman, 20, when she was killed. On July 27, they went to a party at the Milwaukie complex, where Ashley Countryman's boyfriend lived, to celebrate Dani's last night in town before returning to her grandparents' house in Texas.

The next morning, Ashley said she found Dani strangled beneath a blanket on the floor of the apartment where she expected to find her sleeping.

The sheriff's office thanked the community and media for support during the complex investigation, led by Detective Dan Krause.

Real charmers, those two! This is endemic. In NY the most glaring example was the murder of Adrienne Shelley by an Ecuadorian immigrant. It is unclear whether he is legal or illegal.

                         It is saddening and very agitating to see a beautiful girl like this murdered sensesly. The Ecuadorian was illegal in that case in NY. I don't care what these two were they need to be punished to the fullest extent of the law ASAP.    I, however refuse to allow fear to dictate my actions, choice of clothing, or flavor of bumperstickers on my vehicle. If we relinquish an inch they will take a mile or two or three..............

Well, here's the answer to the question of whether or not the criminals above are illegal or not.  Guess they'll get their day in court, but she won't.  My thought go out to the parents...the grief and frustration.

Suspects in Kaufman teen's death entered U.S. illegally 8:45 AM CT

 

08:45 AM CDT on Friday, August 10, 2007

 

Associated Press

 

PORTLAND, Ore. -- Two cousins accused of killing a Texas teenager during her visit to Oregon acknowledged entering the country illegally from Mexico, a federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement official said.

One of the men, Alejandro Rivera Gamboa, 24, went unnoticed by immigration officials even though he was arrested four times on drunken driving charges since 2000, The Oregonian newspaper reported.

He and 23-year-old Gilberto Arellano Gamboa were arrested this week in the death of 15-year-old Dani Countryman of Kaufman, Texas, whose body was found late last month in an apartment southeast of Portland.

Oregon law prohibits local police from actively searching out illegal immigrants, but the rules change when foreigners land in jail. If local authorities find reason to believe the person is deportable, they may notify Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

At the same time, immigration officials search local jails and flag inmates who may be in the country illegally.

"We can't cover every jail in the United States," said Lorie Dankers, an immigration spokeswoman, noting that her agency also relies on local law enforcement officials to notify the immigration agency when they get inmates with questionable residency status.

In Rivera Gamboa's case, immigration officials have no record of contact after arrests, according to the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office, in 2000, 2003, and twice in 2006.

After their arrests in the murder case, the cousins told a federal immigration officer they have been in the United States illegally for about six months, Dankers said. According to state records, Rivera Gamboa obtained an Oregon identification card in April 2006.

In Clackamas County, where hundreds of jail inmates are released early each month because of overcrowding, illegal immigrants could be booked and released before immigration authorities ever get a chance to speak with them. It is unclear how much time Rivera Gamboa spent in the Clackamas County Jail, but a misdemeanor charge of drunken driving likely wouldn't have kept him there long.

Lt. Mike Alexander, Clackamas County jail operations manager, said local law enforcement officials are also limited in how much they can pursue federal immigration questions.

"If (inmates) choose not to tell us, we don't have any protocols that allow us to go forward," Alexander said.

                      Figured as much. This ought to be a wake up call for Oregon law enforcement and leadership.
