AZ Gov. Jan Brewer Claims Most Illegal Immigrants Cross Border For Drug Crime

video
» 68 comments

In a recent debate, Gov. Jan Brewer of Arizona commented that she believed illegal immigrants were mostly not coming into America for the jobs– most were here for representing drug cartels. Today, she added to those comments, claiming that a majority of illegal immigrants are “under the direction of drug cartels.”

Her previous comments followed a similar logic to those from the past 24 hours: ”My opinion, and, I think, in the opinion of law enforcement is that they’re not coming here to work. The majority are coming here and bringing drugs… they’re extorting people, and they’re terrorizing families… that is the truth.” Now, she says, the majority of illegal immigrants ”are under the direction of organized drug cartels and then are bringing drugs in.”

If the governor is attempting to make her opinion more popular to the mainstream, branding the majority of the illegal immigrant community as drug peddlers may not be the way to cool down the collective consciousness. However, if her goal is to keep the debate alive and stake her claim for the controversial law she recently passed, this is one way to do it.

    On NBC Nightly News last night the advocates for legalizing marijuana in CA said most grass coming into CA came from illegals coming from Mexico and argued that legalizing pot would reduce this problem.

    Twenty Other States Considering Copying Arizona Immigration Law

    JOHN MILLER | 06/25/10 06:13 PM | AP

    BOISE, Idaho — Arizona’s sweeping new immigration law doesn’t even take effect until next month, but lawmakers in nearly 20 other states are already clamoring to follow in its footsteps.

  • http://www.libertarianism.com/ Burnnotice

    I agree with Gov. Jan Brewer. Due to the lack of work, most business are just not hiring them. Those that are, don’t mess with Illegals anymore because of all the available help here already…

    I’d say anymore in her state she’s right. The lettuce pickers and the tile grouters aren’t the problem anymore. Since the feds ignored this for years and the economy went down the shitter, the drug biz is flourishing.

    You can thank Clinton, Bush, and now Obama for the immigration fiasco collectively.

  • murf

    Progressives will defend illegal activity at all costs . Just would NEVER live in an environment where such problems occurred .. They should just stop — step back — and put themselves in the communities / states ” shoes ” affected by illegal immigration . That would be asking too much of them.. They’d much rather hurl racism accusations, and incite fear around the country to pick up more minority voters, with no shame .

  • Thomas G Williams

    This an up and coming BLACK EYE for BREWER and REPUBLICANS: DEMOCRATIC GOVERNORS called up state guardsmen out of State resources during the BUSH years and shamed BUSH into doing something. another issue now following that is IF IT IS SO BAD WHY HAS NOT BREWER DEPLOYED AZ GUARDSMEN TO BE A PRESENCE ON THE STATES BORDER WITH MEXICO AS DEMOCRATIC GOVERNORS DID? Add to that the growing record of provably false statements and deceptiveness on her part and things do not bode well for this UN-CONSTITUTIONAL action of her signing.

    And it is not 20 other states it is 20 other republican controlled legislatures some of which have populations that oppose it and will punish republicans this fall and change hands in some cases to Democrats, raising the rable will only get you so far.

    Now that more people are looking at the 14th and seeing the words ALL PERSONS BORN the conservatives are claiming that the words IN THE JURISDICTION OF….. REALLY means IF THE JURISDICTION APPLIES AT ALL and that the Supreme Court will support them in this. Well clear words are clear words so REALLY MEANS positions are INVALID as they are OPINIONS and not reality, you can have your own reality as an opinion but you can not impose your opinions on reality and expect them to be valid AS POINTS OF LAW OR FOR THAT MATTER THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF ISSUES INVOLVED.

    Brewer did not run on this nor was she elected as governor, some things you do only with the consent of the governed and like REPUBLICANS always claim SOME THINGS MUST COME AS A RESULT OF AN ELECTION NOT PUTTING IT BEFORE THE VOTERS AS AN ISSUE BEFORE DOING IT IS WRONG, funny how they always overlook their own ‘stated’ beliefs when they want to do anything they want to do.

    just more of those “rules apply to everyone and everything EXCEPT FOR REPUBLICANS” BS things that republicans are so multiple personality disordered about.

    WHERE ARE YOUR GUARDSMEN BREWER IF THINGS ARE SOOOOOOOOOOO SOOOOOOO BAD?, What? Your not as good as elected Democrats at getting things handled? PUT YOUR OWN GUARD TO WORK AND PAY FOR IT YOURSELF OUT OF AZs RESOURCES. Then we will see just how good you are at dealing with this, Oh and dont violate the laws to do something cause that will put you in jail.

    By Howard Fischer
    CAPITOL MEDIA SERVICES

    PHOENIX – Gov. Janet Napolitano is deploying more National Guard troops along the border today even as she VETEOS a bill to force her to do it.

    Her order, announced this morning, comes less than 24 hours after the Senate voted to direct the governor to expand the presence of the Guard in Southern Arizona and gave her $10 million to do it. Napolitano said she intends to VETO that bill when it gets to her desk later today, calling the mandate an UNCONSTITUTIONAL INFRINGEMENTon her power as commander-in-chief of the Guard.

    But the governor’s order is contingent on lawmakers recrafting that legislation to give her the money – but without what she said is the unconstitutional directive. That move puts the political hot potato back in the hands of the REPUBLICAN-controlled Legislature: If they don’t approve the bill the way she wants it, there’s no money – and she can blame them for failure to deploy the troops.

    But Rep. John Allen, R-Scottsdale, who crafted the measure, said he does not believe it is unconstitutional.

    Napolitano insisted this morning she was not pressured into action by the Legislature and that she had always intended to expand the presence of the Guard in Southern Arizona.

    “I’ve been saying since State of the State (speech) we’re sending the Guard down there,” she said.

    But that isn’t exactly true: In her January speech, the governor said only that she was asking Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to use a provision of federal law “which allows the federal government to PAY FOR US to station the National Guard at our border.” She said those federal funds “would allow the Guard to expand its presence and become even more involved in enforcing the rule of law at the border.”

    So why did she wait until now – with the Legislature sending her a mandate to put the Guard on the border – to issue her order, as opposed to doing it months ago?

    “I was waiting to see if Secretary Rumsfeld would fund the Guard,” she responded. Napolitano said she had not had a chance to meet with him until she was in Washington last week.

    There are fewer than 200 Guard troops along the border now, doing what Napolitano has described as “support” functions.

    She said while troop levels will change, the mission will not.
    “They are not there to militarize the border,” she said. “We are not at war with Mexico.” ………………………………..

    http://www.alipac.us/article1091.html

    IOW : GOV NAPOLITANO was pretty much forced to deploy guard by REPUBLICANS while playing semantics about who was going to fund the guard and she did not think it was constitutional to begin with.

    LAS VEGAS – A newspaper poll found 57 percent support in Nevada for an Arizona-style law to crack down on illegal immigrants.

    Of course most of our liberal friends are against anything that strengthens America,and are for anything that is illegal or immoral.

    The liberals need to turn the poor ignorant illegals into voters, if they have any hope for the future.

    “Conservatives maintained and built on their numerical advantage over liberals in the first half of 2010, a new Gallup poll finds.
    According to the poll, 42 percent of respondents described themselves as either very conservative or conservative, up from 40 percent in 2009. Meanwhile, only 20 percent called themselves either very liberal or liberal, down from 21 percent last year. 35 percent of respondents described themselves as moderate, down from 36 percent in 2009.”

    Why is it you socialists ( I can’t bear to call you liberals anymore, not anyone on this site anyway) always feel it necessary to side with the criminals, thugs, murderers, human smugglers, drug smugglers, etc instead of a clear majority of level headed citizens of Arizona? None of you morons live there, you just jump on the “conservatives want to kill brown people” bandwagon because it’s a perceived “cause” for your demented quest to capture more dem voters.

    For a group that claims to stick up for the downtrodden, you sure do a hell of a job of ignoring the plight of people being kidnapped, killed and maimed in Arizona.

    Is it your upbringing? Are you all leftover hippies or offspring thereof? Were you indoctinated at college? What causes your willingness to flush your country and culture down the shitter for a pat on the head from progressive leadership?

    Sheep. Dangerously deranged sheep.

  • Thomas G Williams

    Murf you played a partisan deception, SHE ALREADY HAD ALL THE GUARD THEY COULD AFFORD ON THE BORDER, YOU ALSO GLOSS OVER WHY SHE PUT THEM THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE and that RICHARDSON had them on his border, BREWER HAS NOT PUT ANY GUARD ON THE BORDER AT ALL

    BIG DIFFERENCE but you play a partisan non-factual POV and act as if it is this huge OH YEA and SO THERE thing, you lost the point by not making a valid point.

    Democrats put them on the border and republicans have not, look for them, republicans. to demand that the US pay for their deployments when DEMOCRATS say it is a problem right here and we can do something to help, nothing the rants and partisan gaming of the issue is helping from the republicans side in this, if it is so bad prove it by putting your resources to work doing it, not by whining OOOOOOooooBAMAAAAaaa.

    “Most of the powdered cocaine available in the state is transported from Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois, New York, and Texas by Mexican and African American criminal groups.”

    So most of the cocaine in the United States is brought in by Mexican and African American criminal groups. If you are attempting to use that data as validation for Brewer’s argument, it doesn’t. First, you’re assuming that illegal immigrants are members of criminal groups. While I will grant you that there is a real debate in terms of the criminality of illegal immigration, most illegal immigrants are not all members of criminal groups.

    Second, you assume that the inverse of the sentence is equally true, that most Mexican and African American criminal groups are bringing in cocaine to the United States. Again, most illegal immigrants are not members of organized crime (at least not in the hyperbolic sense that anti-immigration advocates may argue) and there’s no proof nor will there ever be that most illegal immigrants bring drugs into the country.

    Apologies if you weren’t using that data to prove Brewer right, but that seems to be what you and notsofast are inferring.

  • murf

    Thomas I didn’t gloss over anything. Fact was Napolitano was playing politics by delaying to activate the guard , over funding ,Republican legislators forced her to move. Btw Napolitano hesitation when it came to immigration is well documented .. She needed arm twisting for nearly every immigration / border issue during
    her tenure . That’ was the basis of my post.

    AGAIN YOUR OWN POST SHOWS YOU LIE, all the facts are there and you could supplement them with facts but the facts are against your own POV.

NOPE she put guard there because the BUSH administration had RELAXED BORDER ENFORCEMENT and reduced the civilian law enforcement on the border by redirecting resources to other areas and border crime and violations SPIKED.F) bush promised TROOPS and they were 6 months before they trickled in and some were done with the limited deployment before the others arrived and all WERE FORBIDDEN TO ENGAGE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS, that is the history and the facts moron.

    Enough of you, you post something and do not even organize your argument to be supported by the fact.

    IF BREWER wants troops she has HER TROOPS and she can use them and SHE CAN PAY FOR THEM IF THE LEGISLATURE GIVES HER THE MONEY other wise she is playing at gaming the system to score unearned points.

    I can understand AZ’s frustration, with the illegals coming in from Mexico, bringing in all the crime. For the past few months, I’ve seen so many limousine liberals, bleeding hearts, actually bash AZ and shed crocodile tears for illegals in AZ. Instead of putting on a show for the cameras, I’d be more impressed if the liberals extended an invitation, with a Google map, to all the AZ illegals, to move into their ‘gated’ communities. Wouldn’t it appear to be much more genuine, for liberals to put their money where their mouths are, instead of dictating to others what to do? And what about the semi-comic, Joy Behar? Every time I check out her HLN program, the crocodile tears are flowing for the illegals in AZ . Why not actually DO something useful and invite all the lawlessness to her ‘hood? I’d be so much more impressed with action, than the endless crocodile tears from Joy.

    In Obama’s lawsuit against the AZ law, the courts will have no choice except to order that immigration laws already on the books, be enforced by the feds. Will Obama defy the courts’ decision or obey the law? I have this odd feeling that Obama won’t be a happy camper, when the courts instruct him to follow immigration laws on the books. Even if Obama wins this case against AZ, he still loses, when he’s forced to obey federal laws.

  • Thomas G Williams

    timzank: you have no idea what the legal definition of the National Guard is or who has authority over them or that if the President wants them for Federal Service he has to ASK FOR THEM or any of the other Guard VS Federal Forces issues.

    So you know the components of the National Guard are each individual STATES GUARD thus the designation and of a STATES name in front of the NG and they wear STATE patches and STATE FLAGS unless they FEDERALIZED AND DEPLOYED.

    Enough of you you posted what you posted with no idea how wrong you were and if you had served your country or your state you would have known that.

    I am a Veteran and you are not, you didnt have to join but do not add insult to injury by being igno’ranting’ about something you know nothing about, what did you think all those times a Governor calls out his or her guard they were asking for permission to do so? they are the State level CnC for their GUARDSMEN.

    Its called continuing education take advantage of it and LEARN, millions do and they lift themselves out of ignorance and conservatism, amazing how the conservatives attack the educated, and you never wondered why?

Bush tried to force me back in so I ended up being part of that law suit until Bush and Company dropped the effort to force 23.000 of us back in plus I was disqualified for serving in a forward area or on board by a wrecked shoulder and knee and ankle acquired when i helped a cop who was arresting a meth dealer, details are not pretty but no body died and the dealer tried to sue me, he lost and i will never see a dime from him he got 35 years at trial and while awaiting his transfer from jail to prison he assaulted a deputy and got another 10 to serve tacked on he will be 81 when and if he gets out.

    You must have been Army cause a marine just stops at Navy when that issue comes up.LOL

    You will like this: this lady (family friends) asked me why i was for the death penalty?, I said “lady some “things” just need killing’ she said “you just want to kill people”, i said “ma’am I dont want to kill people I want to kill the things that hurt people” her husband said SHUT UP “THING” BEFORE YOU GET KILLED.

    Val, how would you describe an appointed panel, or group of people that gather to go over the cost benefit analysis of whether or not you should get a heart transplant or left to simply wait death out? Does “end of life” panel sound better to you?

    Nothing unusual here – groups like the Tea Party and the Republicans always need someone upon whom to focus hate, to foment fear, to blame for their own failings. Look at the KKK, the Nazis, the more recent Bosnian conflict and massacres of Muslims, — and now we have the Tea Party and the Republicans ginning up the hate of Hispanics, proposing we put up a wall not dissimilar to the Berlin Wall (of course Rand Paul would put up an Invisible Fence and put collars on immigrants). Jan Brewer is the same story, different day of the far right, always needing a boogie man in the form of color or religion or politics to generate turnout on their election day.

    So when every other country on earth enforces their immigration laws, that means they ‘hate’ other people. Likewise, if you use locks on your home and don’t allow unlimited access, that must mean you ‘hate’ people.

    HEY, JAN,

    WHY DON’T YOU TELL CONGRESS TO DO IT”S JOB?

    WHY AREN’T YOU GOING AFTER THE DRUG LORDS IN YOUR STATE. I can almost guarantee you that they are not the people that you are targeting.

    DON’T FORGET TO STOP THE BLOND-HAIR, BLUE-EYE MULES WHO WORK FOR THE DRUG LORDS WHO ARE NOT THE PEOPLE THAT YOU ARE TARGETING!

    TAKE DOWN THE WARNING SIGNS AND LET FOLKS TAKE THEIR CHANCES IN THE AREAS WHERE IT IS KNOWN THAT THERE IS DANGER.
