American People in Grave Danger

Each of the facts listed below is a threat to the American people. The cumulative effect, however, places the American people in grave danger.

President Obama himself wrote : “As President, I have often said that I have no greater responsibility than protecting the American people,” (National Strategy for Counterterrorism released by the White House, June 29, 2011). As chief executive and commander in chief of the armed forces, the President obviously has responsibility for national security.

Yet he has violated this responsibility and his own words, and placed the United States and the American people in great danger and this is increasing on a daily basis. Irrespective of party affiliation or personal ideology or beliefs, each and every one of us, our families, and our loved ones are being placed in grave danger. The probability of having one that we love murdered is increasing exponentially. Here are the specific reasons why:

1) There is anarchy at our borders. Yes, many come to American looking for jobs and a better life. Yet legal immigration and compassion for other people are not mutually exclusive and can be accomplished by controlling our borders. Currently there is a high number who are criminals and dangerous felons entering our country illegally. These include those involved with drug cartels and human trafficking. Also included are terrorists who sneak across our borders, who wish to harm Americans. Our border guards and sheriffs along our border states see this on a daily basis. It is irresponsible to allow this to continue.

2) President Obama has been purposely importing tens of thousands of refugees from the Mid East and other countries known for terrorist activities. All leading experts tell us that it is impossible to properly vet these refugees, many of whom are young men. It is an absolute certainty that some terrorists will infiltrate with these "refugees". All it takes is a few.

3) On a continuing basis the Obama administration is releasing from prison, back into the American society, hundreds of illegal immigrants who are dangerous criminals, who were convicted of serious crimes including murder, kidnapping, sexual assault and other serious felonies. A Homeland Security Inspector General Report indicated 890 were released in this category back into society from 2009 to 2011. It continues.

4) The Obama administration is openly allowing the violation of federal law by well over 200 "sanctuary cities" that are protecting and not turning over illegal immigrant felons who have been convicted of serious crimes. As a result there have been a number of murders of American citizens due to these sanctuary cities that protect felons and allow them back into society. And it continues even with several identified murders of Americans that are on record!

5) In addition to illegal immigrants, the Obama administration is in the process of releasing some 70,000 felons from federal prisons, some of whom have been guilty of heinous crimes. U.S. Senator Tom Cotton stated: “Unfortunately, we may now be living through the early stages of a new crime wave...Murders and rapes and other violent crimes are up all across America. The American people say they're more concerned about crime than they have been any time in the last 15 years. This is not the time to start releasing violent felons from prison.” Over 30,000 have been released already!

6) President Obama and former Attorney, General, Eric Holder, set the tone against police across the United States by their public remarks, and by convicting police publicly without due process. Imagine top federal officials ignoring the Constitution and the law! Inciting thugs to kill police! They made it appear that a very small number of police who are bad represent ALL police across our country when this is FAR from the truth. Our police across America are on the front lines of providing safety and security in our neighborhoods yet have been placed in jeopardy. This, in turn, places the American people in jeopardy.

7) Even with "legal" entry into the United States the Obama administration allows potential terrorists to play us as fools. All across our country, and on a continuing basis, people enter the United States from the Mid East and terrorist laden areas across of the world without proper checks to begin with and then they get lost into our country with no methods of tracking them. Political correctness rules, not the safety of the American people. The more recent examples are the Boston Marathon bombings, the terrorist acts in San Bernardino, California, and now Orlando, Florida. No doubt there will be more, we are extremely vulnerable.

8) There is a complete failure by the Obama administration and unwillingness to identify one of the largest threats to our country...radical Islamic terrorism. In order to solve a problem, you have to first identify it. The Obama administration refuses to identify it at the peril of the American people. Fundamental problem solving dictates that in order to solve a problem, you have to first identify it.

Any one of the above is in itself a major problem that potentially affects the safety and lives of Americans. The cumulative affect of the above will be devastating to our country. We ARE NOT safe. Our families and loved ones are in grave danger and it is worsening.

What will it take for the American people to wake up and demand that something drastically be done by our Congress and our President to protect America? We need to start holding them accountable. By not reporting the above facts and bringing them into proper perspective the media is doing a great disservice to America.
