Every American has heard the name George Floyd. But few Americans will ever hear about Jerry Wayne Harbour, Michael White, and Joseph Paglia, three members of a police motorcycle group who were killed by an illegal alien allegedly driving drunk who received Obama’s illegal DACA amnesty. And unlike with Floyd, there will be no impetus for policy changes to rectify the epidemic of repeat criminal aliens who are allowed to remain in the country and victimize more Americans.

We were told that the reason Floyd’s murder was more important to highlight than the thousands of black murder victims killed by many black offenders every year is because it was born out of restraint and policing policies sanctioned by government. By the same reasoning, we should focus on the avoidable deaths of these three law enforcement officers, two of whom were military veterans, because specific governmental policies ensured that a serial drunk-driving illegal alien was not removed from this country. Had the laws written by Congress been followed, Harbour, White, and Paglia would still be living.

Members of the Thin Blue Line Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club were traveling on Highway 16 in Kerr County, Texas, on Saturday when Ivan Robles Navejas, allegedly driving drunk, crossed the center line and plowed headfirst into six motorcyclists. Three were killed and nine others in the group were injured, some of them seriously.

Navejas was charged with three counts of intoxication manslaughter and six counts of intoxication assault.

But here’s the kicker: According to KTSA, Navejas, a Mexican national, had a pair of DUI arrests in 2013 and 2016 and was out on bail from an assault in 2018. KTSA reports that ICE stated that he was not removed in 2013 and 2016 thanks to Obama’s priority enforcement policies that treated DUIs as unworthy of removal.

Still, I was confused as to how in a state like Texas, Navejas was allowed to be bonded out after an assault in 2018, despite the prior criminal record, now that ICE no longer continues Obama’s amnesty enforcement priorities. That’s when I received a statement from ICE that Navajas was given DACA. “Navejas also had Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) from 2013 through 2015, which has since expired,” said the ICE official. “His conditional permanent resident status expired in January 2019, and he is now subject to removal.”

Which means that despite two DUI arrests and one assault arrest, he was still not terminated from the DACA program until it expired on its own!

This underscores the need for Congress to mandate automatic ICE apprehension of any illegal alien caught driving drunk and to cut off funds to any locality that does not turn such criminals over to ICE before they post bond. It also highlights the need for the Trump administration to immediately rescind Obama’s amnesty.

Last year, I wrote a series of articles on the pervasive threat of illegal alien drunk driving, which kills many Americans every year. More than most crimes, DUIs are habitual. Chances are that offenders have usually been caught driving drunk prior to a fatal incident. Unfortunately, when it comes to American drunk drivers, even repeat offenders rarely serve jail time and are out to offend again. But why in the world should we harbor the ticking time bombs of other countries who have been known to drive drunk with several thousand pounds of steel, especially when they have other criminal offenses?

If every story of an avoidable instance of repeat illegal alien offenders killing multiple Americans were accorded 10% of the George Floyd coverage, we’d have riots in the streets to push for immigration enforcement.

Just in one year of apprehensions with very limited resources, ICE arrested a pool of aliens who together racked up 80,730 DUIs, not including over 76,000 other driving offenses. A 2010 report by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) found that Hispanics are “less likely” to believe that driving while intoxicated is a “safety problem” or that they will be caught in the act. Also, the Texas Department of Transportation reported that “10,607 Latino drivers were involved in alcohol-related crashes in 2009, and the nearly 200 that died represent 31 percent of all DWI driver fatalities in the state.”

According to a May 2006 NHTSA report, 42 percent of all Latino drivers fatally injured in car accidents had a blood alcohol content (BAC) level over 0.08 g/dL, as compared to just 29 percent of white drivers and 31 percent of black drivers. One 2016 study (Romano et al.) found, “Compared with permanent residents, undocumented drivers are more likely to binge drink, less likely to understand DUI laws, and less likely to perceive the risks associated with DUI – three factors largely associated with high DUI rates.”

Therefore, it’s very likely that thousands of Americans are cut down in the prime of their lives by illegal alien drunk drivers who almost always could have been removed from the country.

We are now told that we must strip the civil liberties of Americans because perhaps the voodoo viral mitigation strategies against coronavirus will save just one life. Well, we could save thousands of lives by simply enforcing existing law against people who have no right to be in the country in the first place.

Speaking of following the laws on the books, Trump must also immediately rescind DACA. At the very minimum, DHS needs to comb through all those who have criminal records and immediately terminate their statutes. According to data from United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), as of October 1, 2019, 4,210 illegal aliens with drunk driving offenses were approved for DACA. Given the habitual nature of this crime, how many more people like Ivan Robles Navejas remain in the country indefinitely to drive drunk and kill more Americans – even after having already been arrested for DUI?

Finally, in light of the George Floyd incident, there has been a call to end qualified immunity for law enforcement officers. But in light of this atrocity, shouldn’t there be an effort to end immunity for government officials who shield criminal aliens from removal when those criminals proceed to kill Americans?

But don’t expect Republicans to even discuss this issue, much less force legislation and budget provisions against sanctuary cities and target criminal aliens for removal. They are too busy meeting with BLM anarchists to promote the jailbreak agenda. The lives of these law enforcement officers simply don’t matter like some others do.

Americans are dreamers too. American lives matter, and Jerry Wayne Harbour, Michael White, and Joseph Paglia deserve justice from our political system to solve the systemic, yet preventable problem that led to their deaths.

Imagine a sheriff coming home to his family one night knowing that in a day’s work, he arrested a pastor for holding services while following CDC distancing guidelines, yet at the same time, released a bunch of criminals, one of whom is now accused of murder. Well, meet Chad Chronister – the face of this mix of anarchism and fascism in the coronavirus response.

Joseph Edward Williams was one of over 100 prisoners released from Orient Road Jail in Hillsborough County, Florida. Sheriff Chad Chronister told us at the time not to worry because they were low-level, nonviolent offenders.

Well, a day after he was released on March 19 under the guise of preventing coronavirus spread in jail, Williams allegedly shot a man to death in Tampa.

"There is no question Joseph Williams took advantage of this health emergency to commit crimes while he was out of jail awaiting resolution of a low-level, non-violent offense. As a result, I call on the State Attorney to prosecute this defendant to the fullest extent of the law," Sheriff Chad Chronister said. 

Sheriff Chronister sounds like he’s a firefighter, but really he is the arsonist. As WMFY reports, Williams had been arrested 35 times! Yet fools like Chronister keep releasing criminals based on the last offenses for which they are serving time without factoring in their threat to society based on their prior records.

Williams is now charged with second-degree murder, resisting an officer with violence, felon in possession of a firearm, possession of heroin, and possession of drug paraphernalia. The murder is alleged to have occurred just 26 hours after Williams was released.

What few people realize is that this is the same sheriff who held a press conference a week later lecturing the public on the Bible and social distancing and then arrested Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne for holding services, even though his lawyer says he was following CDC guidelines for sanitation and social distancing.

Chronister is now the face of anarchy and fascism in America, where peaceful citizens are placed under house arrest while criminals are released from prison en masse and new ones are not arrested. So many of the people serving time for drugs like Williams are really dangerous career criminals who will now be back on the streets because people like Chronister believe drug dealing is low-level but violating their version of social distancing is high-level.

“Every murder, every violent crime, especially those involving a gun, is a sickening example of the worst in our community, especially at a time when our community is working relentlessly to fight against the spread of this deadly COVID-19,” Chronister said.

Well, gee, Sheriff, one would think that someone with this much experience in law enforcement would understand that most gun felons and murderers come from those arrested numerous times on “low-level” offenses. Court records show that Williams had a history of burglary, assault, theft, and yes, weapons charges in Hillsborough County. Yet he barely served time in prison. A blind person could see this threat coming a mile away.

Now all of America is going to get a taste of the true character of all these “low-level” criminals being enthusiastically released and the fraud of the de-incarceration movement pushing it.

One would also expect Sheriff Chronister to realize that as criminals know he is obsessing over policing “social distancing,” they will take their chance to commit real crimes with impunity.

Just like the authors of so many jailbreak decisions gone wrong, Williams was given a heartwarming moment in front of the cameras. "I feel wonderful," Williams told a local news station the day he was released. "It's a blessing that I'm getting released."

The real question is how many other Americans will be on the receiving end of this “blessing.”

Sanctuary jurisdictions like Montgomery County, Maryland, have become a magnet for MS-13 and illegal alien rapists. But unlike the coronavirus, this “epidemic” is completely avoidable.

Last summer, so many illegal alien rapists were released by sanctuary Montgomery County that it sparked a fight between DHS officials and local politicians. Acting Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Ken Cuccinelli even challenged county executive Mark Elrich to a debate and referred to the wayward county as “Loco in MOCO.”

In the latest case last Thursday, local police arrested Jose Lopez-Gonzalez, 35, an illegal alien from El Salvador, for raping a semiconscious woman in an office building stairwell in Wheaton, Maryland. WJLA’s Kevin Lewis obtained police documents describing the graphic details.

"Lopez-Gonzalez was on the top of [the victim] who was naked from the waist down," police wrote in court documents filed late last week in Montgomery County District Court. "[The officer] advised that he initially yelled at Lopez-Gonzalez to get off [the victim] but that he had to physically pull him off her because he was still engaging in sexual intercourse."

Lopez-Gonzalez is being held without bail after police charged him with rape and assault. Otherwise, Montgomery County police, pursuant to county policies, would likely be forced to release him without honoring the ICE detainer. That’s what happened last week in Boston when an illegal alien who was accused of raping a drunk woman in a similar incident was released onto the streets. Luckily, ICE found him before he could victimize anyone else.

According to ICE, Lopez-Gonzalez was previously deported to El Salvador in 2007 and 2010.

The lack of a fixed deterrent at the border and in the interior incentivizes these people to come back. Every day, when CBP posts reports about catching previously deported sex offenders, just remember that there are numerous others they fail to catch, and we never hear about them until they commit a crime in an American city.

ICE also told WJLA that Lopez-Gonzales is believed to be associated with MS-13, an international criminal street gang. Montgomery County has an epidemic of gang members and rapists among the illegal alien population from Central America. Last month, a 20-year-old illegal alien was arrested in Montgomery County for raping an 11-year-old girl. The suspect attended high school with girls much younger than him.

Despite the gang and crime problem from Central Americans who self-traffic across the border as unaccompanied teens, the DHS still has not shut down the resettlement of UACs. Not even the coronavirus has prompted the government to turn back UACs.

According to Maryland court records, Lopez-Gonzalez was charged for drugs in 2007 and pleaded guilty to assault and sexual assault in 2011. Clearly, when someone like this is incentivized to return twice to Montgomery County and remain such a threat to women in the community, we are not properly enforcing our immigration laws.

As grim is things look with the Wuhan coronavirus, the pandemic will eventually subside. But the criminal alien crisis fueled by sanctuary cities will not go away on its own. While we collectively engage in social distancing to pre-empt the spreading of the virus, we should be able to count on our government to engage in distancing from other countries’ criminals.
