President Biden’s border policies harm Americans of all ages
Tragedy Strikes: 10-Year-Old Boy Killed in Hit and Run by Repeat Deportee
A heartbreaking incident unfolded in Midland, Texas last week when a 10-year-old boy was tragically killed while walking home from school. The perpetrator? An illegal border crosser who had been deported five times before. This devastating hit and run has once again highlighted the urgent need for stronger border security.
The young victim, Alex Wise Jr., was struck by a black truck driven by Rogelio Ortiz-Olivas. Witnesses reported that Ortiz-Olivas brazenly drove around other stopped vehicles before hitting Wise. Despite being rushed to the hospital, Wise succumbed to his injuries the following day.
Ortiz-Olivas, who was using the alias Juan Ortiz Perez at the time of the incident, was eventually apprehended by law enforcement. His damaged truck, bearing an eerie “impression of a skull” on the hood, led to his arrest. He now faces charges of hit and run, accident causing death, driver negligence, and failing to stop and render aid.
This tragic event serves as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by open borders. The influx of illegal border crossers has not only increased organized crime but has also resulted in countless innocent lives being lost. Stories of repeat offenders who should have been permanently deported but continue to commit crimes in the United States are becoming all too common.
A Broken System
Under President Biden’s lax immigration policies, criminals are entering the country with little to no scrutiny and are able to evade justice. Prior to Biden taking office, the majority of federal arrests involved individuals who had crossed the border illegally. Now, with over 10 million crossings under Biden’s watch, criminals are not only entering but also staying in the country.
These open borders have far-reaching consequences. Not only are American communities grappling with increased crime rates, but they are also facing the devastating effects of the national opioid crisis. The rise of fentanyl, a deadly synthetic opioid, has been fueled by foreign enemies who provide criminal organizations with the necessary chemicals. Billions of dollars worth of fatal drugs are being smuggled into the United States, resulting in a record-breaking number of overdose deaths.
Protecting Lives and Security
The tragic death of Alex Wise Jr. is a stark reminder that open borders not only jeopardize national security but also put innocent American lives at risk. The record-breaking number of illegal border crossers flooding into the country is overwhelming communities, overcrowding shelters, and even forcing children out of school.
We must prioritize the safety and well-being of our citizens by implementing stronger border security measures and ensuring that repeat offenders are permanently deported. The time for action is now, before more lives are needlessly lost.
How can we enhance border patrol efforts along the southern border to prevent individuals from repeatedly entering the country illegally?
Reminder of the consequences that can occur when individuals repeatedly enter the country illegally. The fact that Ortiz-Olivas had been deported multiple times before highlights the failure of our current border security measures. It is clear that stronger action needs to be taken to prevent such tragedies from happening in the future.
First and foremost, it is imperative that we enhance border patrol efforts along the southern border. This includes increasing the number of border patrol officers, implementing advanced surveillance technology, and investing in infrastructure to deter illegal crossings. By effectively securing our border, we can reduce the chances of dangerous individuals entering our country and causing harm to innocent victims like Alex Wise Jr.
Additionally, we must address the issue of repeat deportees. It is unacceptable that individuals who have been deported multiple times are able to reenter the country so easily. Stricter penalties and enforcement procedures should be put in place to ensure that those who have been deported are prevented from returning. This will not only enhance our border security but also discourage individuals from attempting to enter the country illegally in the first place.
Furthermore, we need to improve coordination and information sharing between federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies. This will enable authorities to identify and track individuals with a history of illegal crossings and criminal activities. By integrating systems and sharing intelligence, we can better identify potential threats and take pro-active measures to prevent tragic incidents like the hit and run that took the life of Alex Wise Jr.
In addition to these measures, it is essential that we address the root causes of illegal immigration. Poverty, lack of economic opportunities, and social instability in countries of origin drive many individuals to undertake dangerous journeys to seek a better life elsewhere. By investing in economic development, promoting stability, and providing aid to countries affected by these issues, we can address the underlying causes of illegal immigration and create a safer environment for both migrants and citizens alike.
The tragedy that occurred in Midland, Texas serves as a wake-up call for our nation. It emphasizes the importance of prioritizing border security and taking immediate action to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future. It is our duty to protect the lives of our citizens and ensure the safety of our communities. By strengthening border security, addressing the issue of repeat deportees, improving coordination between law enforcement agencies, and tackling the root causes of illegal immigration, we can work towards a safer and more secure nation for all. Let us not forget the life of Alex Wise Jr. and let his memory serve as a catalyst for change.
