Amid crime wave, where's the empathy? by Laura Ingraham
The demonization of the American citizen continues. President Obama used the White House observance of Cinco de Mayo to chide those who would "single out people because of who they look like."
If you are an average, middle-class American simply wishing to live with less crime, you are now a bigot. Barack might as well have pulled a Gordon Brown and come right out and said it.
Where is the empathy for those dealing with the illegal alien-induced crime wave?
Obama said last week the Arizona law means people simply taking their child out to get ice cream are going to be harassed.
This is true. Several people were "harassed" to death at an ice cream shop in Denver, Colorado in 2008. The harassment, however, consisted of a truck driven by an illegal alien at 80 miles per hour causing the deaths of three people, including a three-year-old boy:
Francis Hernandez was sentenced Monday to 60 years in prison for causing an accident that killed three people at an Aurora ice-cream shop in 2008...
Hernandez repeatedly violated traffic laws and drove without a license on numerous occasions...
Hernandez was driving more than 80 mph on South Havana Street on Sept. 4, 2008, when he hit a small pickup driven by Patricia Guntharp, who was turning into a strip mall.
Her pickup careened into a Baskin-Robbins store, killing Guntharp, 49, and her passenger, Debra Serecky, 51. Marten Kudlis, only 3, was in the ice cream shop with his mother. Marten died, and several others were injured...
In asking for leniency, public defender Chris Baumann, who sought a prison sentence of between four and 12 years, noted that Hernandez had never been convicted of a felony. Baumann [said] he planned to appeal the conviction...
After the conviction, the Kudlis family filed a civil suit in Arapahoe County District Court, seeking damages from Hernandez and...several law enforcement agencies that arrested or cited Hernandez but did not report him to federal authorities for deportation.
Let's review: Someone who entered our country illegally repeatedly breaks our traffic laws and eventually causes the deaths of three people. The taxpayers provide him with a defense lawyer and pay for all of his court appeals. After his conviction, they also fund the rest of his stay in America behind bars.
This is Barack Obama's idea of fairness? This is why Democrats demonize supporters of a law that allows law enforcement to check the resident status of suspicious individuals they encounter while on duty?
Where is the empathy for children like Marten Kudlis?
