THE LEGALIZED HISPANIC COMMUNITY DESERVES SAFETY AND FREEDOM...TRUMP IS 'ON TARGET'

Authored by: Donald Hank

Hispanics the biggest losers in US immigration policy

by Don Hank

One of the readers in my political list serve sent me a link to a story on how the RNC “congratulated” Donald Trump after his press conference with parents of victims of illegal alien killers. It was a back handed congratulation. In each case, the messages from GOP brass like John Boehner and Jeb Bush to Trump ended with the admonition to tone down the rhetoric. In fact, the thinly veiled message was: stop telling the truth and stick to the GOP talking points.

Trump likes the word “stupid.” For example, he called US trade negotiators stupid for giving other countries economic advantages that disadvantage Americans at a time of crisis when we can ill afford to be so generous. (I had met a high ranking Taiwanese government trade negotiator in Taiwan in the 80s and learned from him how utterly stupid American negotiators were then. Nothing has changed)
The RNC and its minions in the media are also utterly stupid when it comes to immigration. They ignore the fact that Hispanics are the one group that is most afraid of illegal aliens. This is because they live in the same neighborhoods with these violent Hispanic gangs and criminals and fear the violence, and if politicians were even moderately smart, they could capitalize on this fear to educate the public about this violence and advocate for the victims, most of them immigrants themselves, instead of trying to score political points with the uneducated. But they aren’t even moderately smart.
While living in York Country, PA, my wife (Hispanic) and I were close friends with a couple from the Dominican Republic. Like most Hispanics, they were reflexively in favor of illegal immigration and the husband worked with a group that helped illegals stay in America. He was confident that he was doing good. No one had ever suggested the contrary to him. On one occasion when we were discussing illegal immigration, I asked him what he thought of Haitians who entered his country illegally. He hemmed and hawed and said that there were not that many but that some of them were able to get jobs in his country. He wouldn’t admit that Dominicans resent illegal Haitian immigrants, but I told him I knew they did and told him that Americans also resent people entering our country illegally and receiving benefits, eg, health care, that we pay for, refusing to assimilate or identify as Americans first, creating enclaves with alien value systems, bringing in crime and disease with them, etc. He was nonplussed because we had always spoken Spanish with each other and I doubt he had ever heard anyone express opposition to illegal immigration in his own language. Normally, neither Hispanics nor their non-Hispanic friends would ever dare to express that non-PC opinion.
He couldn’t respond. After all, it was my country's laws we were talking about and I was simply telling him I wanted others to honor them, just as Dominicans want the Haitians to honor their laws. What could he say?
One day the couple and their children moved out of our area to Falls Church, VA, and we didn't hear from them for a long time. Then one day the SeƱora called to speak to my wife, who was not home.
I asked her how they liked their new neighborhood and she very quietly said she was afraid for their kids (very young). She said there were dangerous gangs in that neighborhood. I knew exactly what she was talking about and immediately rose to the opportunity to ask what ethnicity these gangs were. 
“Hispanic,” she whispered, no doubt afraid someone might hear her. I suspect she was more afraid of what her liberal neighbors would say than what the gangs might do. (Americans live in a terror regime without realizing it).
Ironically, while the RNC dodges the most vital issue of all in the immigration debate, namely, violent crime and violent gangs, it is the Hispanic community that has the most to lose and is frightened of and dismayed at the consequences of our misguided political policies. But because of the sinister silent mandate not to talk about this, neither Hispanics nor other Americans dare to initiate a debate that could eventually lead to a solution.
Thus, ironically, and tragically, both the GOP and the Democrats are pursuing policies of political correctness that gravely harm the constituents they pander to and that, if discussed openly, could lead Hispanics to admit that they are afraid of some of their neighbors and would welcome a solution to the violence problem. But the politicians and their PR group, arrogating to themselves the title of “journalists,” are blocking the discussion that could lead to the solution.
However, the outspoken and savvy Donald Trump has blown the door off the iron cage they have built around the truth.
I do not endorse candidates, but despite whatever faults the Donald might have, he has done America an enormous service in changing the debate.

  1. Comment of Buzz Warrior Woman: In deed Trump has helped Americans; my hope and prayer is the fact that the Hispanics are reading this message from somewhere in the States and that they will pass it around; I hope, also, that they hear what Trump is saying...
