Left-Wing Elites Laugh As Illegal Gangs Terrorize American Neighborhoods

Five years ago a 47-year-old man from Senegal hijacked a school bus full of children just outside Milan, the business capital of Italy. He ordered the teachers and a janitor to restrain all the children with zip ties. His motive was clear: The man threatened to carry out a “massacre” to avenge all of the illegal migrants who drowned on their way to Europe. Essentially, he wanted open borders, and he was threatening to commit mass murder to get it. And he seemed intent on making good on that promise: During a 40-minute rampage, the man rammed the school bus into several cars on a highway before lighting the bus on fire. At that point, the 51 children on board managed to escape, thanks in part to the adults who didn’t actually secure the zip ties on any of the students.

This 2019 school bus hijacking changed the trajectory of Italy’s politics overnight, and you can see why. People will buy into a lot of very bad policies in the name of tolerance and acceptance and so on. But when a guy from Senegal hijacks a school bus full of children and tries to light them on fire, it’s pretty clear that a red line has been crossed. That’s an unmistakable sign that things need to change. And voters in Italy responded accordingly. It’s one of the reasons Meloni was elected prime minister in 2022, on a platform calling for a naval blockade to keep illegal migrants out of the country.

On Wednesday, this country came very close to experiencing a similar incident in the state of California, which long ago adopted European-style migration policies. On two separate occasions, groups of illegal migrants attempted to board a school bus on the highway near the Mexican border, in the Jamul-Dulzura Union School District. In the first instance, three men stood in the middle of the highway, apparently attempting to force the bus to stop. In the second instance, a group of about 20 illegal migrants were waiting on another route for another bus. It’s not clear if the same illegal aliens were involved in both of these incidents. Watch:

So the plan is apparently to just leave the kids at the bus stop next time with the “migrants.” What else can you possibly do? Surely you can’t have the police round up and arrest this group of people who are in this country illegally, terrorizing children and threatening to hijack buses. That would just be unthinkable, intolerant even. So instead, the children can just fend for themselves. The school bus will get out of dodge like the last chopper out of Hanoi.

Meanwhile the sheriff’s office in San Diego says they’re investigating to determine “if a criminal act has occurred.” They’re not quite sure if standing in the middle of the road, or being in the country illegally, or threatening to hijack a school bus are really crimes. Maybe bus hijacking has been decriminalized too. They’re still looking into it.

This is one of those moments where an abstract policy debate suddenly becomes a lot less abstract. It’s one thing to talk about how “no person is illegal” and so on. But it’s quite another to tolerate something like this. And there are very clear signs that Americans, like Italians, are tired of tolerating it. Earlier this year Axios reported on a poll showing that: “Half of Americans — including 42% of Democrats — say they’d support mass deportations of undocumented immigrants.” Additionally, “two-thirds of Americans said illegal immigration is a real crisis, not a politically driven media narrative.”

As more people see the unavoidable consequences of mass migration in their everyday lives, support for mass deportations is only going to increase even further. The reality of unrestricted illegal migration is that everyday events suddenly become a lot more dangerous, all over the place, to the point that the policy itself becomes untenable.

That’s why it’s not just Californians who can’t escape these consequences anymore. In Aurora Colorado, an apartment complex has reportedly been taken over by a Venezuelan street gang. Surveillance footage shows gunmen with rifles walking around with impunity. There’s trash everywhere, residents report that a bunch of illegal aliens moved in recently, and shootings are commonplace. Watch:

Several police departments in Colorado have responded to this footage. For their part, Aurora PD says they’re “aware” that “components” of this Venezuelan gang (known as T.d.A) are operating in the area. The police department also says it has been “increasingly collecting evidence to show the gang is connected to crimes in the area,” although they claim that these crimes are “isolated,” whatever that means. But here’s the most incredible part of the statement.

“The city and Aurora Police Department, as previously stated, established a special task force in collaboration with other local, state and federal partners to specifically address concerns about Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) and other criminal activity *affecting migrant communities.*”

So they say the gang is committing “criminal activity affecting migrant communities.” But obviously, it’s not just affecting the “migrant communities.” It’s affecting the millions of American citizens who pay taxes in Colorado — people the Aurora police department is supposedly sworn to protect. But they don’t even get a mention in the police department’s statement. Even when they’re talking about the takeover of an apartment building by illegal aliens, the police are still primarily concerned with the illegal aliens.

Meanwhile Denver PD released its own statement. They actually do mention the “residents” of their community, and not just the “migrants.” So that’s something. They also denied that an apartment was “taken over,” despite the video evidence to the contrary. That assessment would also contradict the conclusion of Aurora’s mayor, who just said on national television that multiple buildings have fallen to Venezuelan gangs, and it’s possible they were funded by the U.S.government:

This would seem like something the Denver police department should know about. But to be fair, they admitted that the Venezuelan gang is committing a lot of crimes and they’re, “learning” about.

And there’s a lot of that kind of “learning” going on right now in Colorado, one way or the other. This week for example, the residents of Colorado learned that illegal immigrants can legally drive big rigs on the road, kill American citizens while driving recklessly, and then get off with a maximum sentence of one year in prison. That’s what’s happening now in the case of Ignacio Cruz-Mendoza, an illegal alien without a valid commercial driver’s license who crashed his 18-wheeler into a car being driven by Scott Miller. Watch:

Allegedly the Democrat DA’s office just made an innocent little mistake here. Apparently it’s their first day on the job. They didn’t realize that by charging this illegal alien with misdemeanors and nothing else, that he could then plead guilty to those misdemeanors. And then double jeopardy kicks in, and they can’t charge him anymore. This was all supposedly totally unforeseeable to the DA. 

In order to believe that, you’d have to know nothing about the leadership of the state of Colorado, which goes out of its way to mock concerns about illegal alien crime. In response to the apartment takeover I mentioned earlier, for example, the state’s governor, Jared Polis, put out a snarky statement mocking Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky, who initially complained about the incident. Polis’ office said, “the purported invasion is largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.” (Even though it’s on tape).  He also said crime has been going down.

This is the extent of the response that voters in Left-wing states can expect when they object to the systematic destruction of their way of life. The more they complain about school bus hijackings, apartment takeovers and highway crashes, the more their leaders will laugh at them. There’s precedent for this; it’s what happened in Italy, among many other European nations. And if that precedent is any indication, it means that we are getting very close to the point at which people have had enough. And when that point comes, none of these people will be in power. They’ll be replaced with leaders who, like Meloni, will promise to end unrestricted migration. And hopefully, unlike Meloni, the people we elect will actually fulfill that promise.

Fibis I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
