America, Criminal Empire of Global Proportions
By Roar Bjonnes
(PNA)Drive-by-shootings, crime ridden neighborhoods, drug overdoses, and rape. Theseare the gritty ingredients of Hollywood films such as Pulp Fiction and Training Day.Now such staple celluloid crime scenes are being exported for real. How? In the formof criminal aliens. Not in sci-fi episodes of Star Trek and X-Files, but rather from theconcrete hoods of Los Angeles, Detroit, and New York City.Many of these criminal aliens arrived in America as children. They were smuggledhere in the arms of parents, uncles and aunts. They fled the rat-infested stench andhopeless poverty of shantytowns in Mexico, Jamaica, or Honduras.Others escaped wars and political persecution in Guatemala, El Salvador andNicaragua. All they wanted was to become part of the American dream. But many of these kids ended up in gangs or started to abuse drugs. Eventually they ended up inprison.Since 1996, more than 500,000 of these criminals have been rounded up anddeported. According to Associated Press writer Randall Richard, “this year they arebeing banished at a rate of one every seven minutes to more than 160 countriesaround the world.” A six month investigation by Richard revealed some shocking realities: Ten-thousandstrong, these criminals have made Kingston, Jamaica, into a literal killing field.According to Jamaican police, they have been involved in hundreds of murders.In Guyana, drive-by-shootings, kidnappings and bank robberies were once only themyth of Hollywood films. Not any more. Today, 600 hard-core deportees plague thiscountry of only 700,000 with violence and crime.According to Interpol records, murders in Honduras increased from 1,615 in 1995, to9,241 in 1998. This increase was mainly caused by the first influx of about 7,000lawless deportees and the guns, drugs, and gang lifestyles they imported from theUnited States.However Mexico has absorbed the largest number of deportees, 340,000 accordingto the US Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.While the criminal deportees receive free air fare to their home country, the freelunch generally stops at the runway. With no money in their pockets--not evenenough for a bus fare—they arrive in their own country, penniless and alien. Often nolonger able to speak their native tongue, crime becomes a matter of survival.Even though most of the aliens have no history of gang activity or violence in the US—indeed, the majority are drug offenders--when they arrive “home,” they inevitablybring violence and other criminal troubles with them.While this unsettling export commodity is increasing by the thousands each year, theUS State Department is reluctant to discuss the foreign policy implications of thedeportations.
