Selective law enforcement

Chief Lindsey,

 

Your open admission that we have “Selective Law Enforcement” is indeed chilling, something we have known for years, but to have a hired official in your capacity to admit it is indeed revealing.  Certainly, all know you inherited this squalid condition which has existed for years, and since the Genie is out of the bottle you may confront this travesty or continue to ignore it.

 

Your present position is that of Director Andre Good, who obviously believes for whatever the reason, we citizens should sit on our tushes and be overrun by illegal third world nationals at the behest of corporate enterprises, i.e. OK Foods, Tyson’s, Wal-Mart and a host of others, while you and Good are suddenly trying to inject race into the subject.  We have entered into a sphere somewhere between a sanctuary city and an outlaw city.   I remind you again, we are a sovereign state with laws to protect our borders and persons.  Director Good stated “hunting down people who have done no serious harm, though they may be here illegally”.  Director Good, I direct your attention to public schools, healthcare, prison population, prenatal care for illegals…the Schipps program, 13 deaths per day due to illegals, ad infinitum.   Director Good, please deal with the facts, not hyperbole.

 

The Arkansas State Police is colluding with this criminal enterprise by issuing driver’s licenses to illegal foreign nationals aided by multi-colored brochures printed in Spanish and sent to the Secretary of State for registration, allowing illegals to drive on our highways, vote in our elections, and enter into any number of government programs and other nefarious activities.

 

The Arkansas State Police are clearly aiding and abetting illegal aliens.  All Arkansas officials are turning a blind eye to 8 USC, Sections 1325, 1324, 1644, etc. which clearly states that ALL law enforcement has the duty to arrest illegals and those hiring illegals which is a felony offense as you should know.

 

I have sued the Arkansas State Police over their on-going travesty.  It was thrown out in a lower court in Ft. Smith on a law that was quashed in the 1990’s.  The Judge said to file it again in Pulaski County.  So much for “selective justice”.   I have filed with the Arkansas State Supreme Court, and A.G. McDaniel has responded with 24 pages of nonsensical legal brief fluff. It will be interesting to see if the Arkansas Protection Racket remains supreme by kicking my suit out the back door.

 

Gentlemen in City Government…who is really in charge?  Or are you too timid to address the destruction heaped on the American public by these unwanted illegal invasions paid for by middleclass Americans for the benefit of corrupt corporations?

 

A vivid example of what I have termed “selective law enforcement” is occurring in New York City as I write.  Mayor Bloomberg vs. Plax Burress.  Mayor Bloomberg is wanting the letter of the law enforced against Burress for carrying a non-licensed pistol, shooting himself in the thigh at some location.  At the same time, Bloomberg refuses to enforce U.S. Immigration Law.

A sign of the times, the facts are considered “bias, bigotry and prejudice” when they don’t suit the establishment.

 

Kindest regards,

Joe McCutchen

Chief Lindsey, I certainly appreciate you taking the time to address

the McCutchen's emails. Your honesty to these matters are to be

commended. Thank you for pointing out that Selective enforcement is a

necessary evil, not to be confused with bias, bigotry and prejudice.

 

Immigration is a FEDERAL issue. The local police are not immigration

agents, nor should they be, although  partnerships between agencies is

ideal . I believe like any other enterprise, the local police have to

allocate resources to their highest and best uses. Hunting down people

who've done no serious harm, though they may be here illegally, is

likely not high on the priority list. Let's let the federal government

work this out, as it should, so that there are uniform policies in

place that acknowledge the immigration problem, work toward fair

solutions, and, most of all, validate the dignity and worth of all

persons concerned.

 

We all pay taxes--that includes "illegals." Some of us--let's take

African-Americans as an example--paid taxes for generations yet were

denied fundamental rights and basic liberties. Because of American

slavery and "Jim Crow," African-Americans subsidized the lifestyle of

European Americans without due recompense.

 

We have serious immigration issues in America, no doubt. Such issues

require focused discussion and rational debate. Hateful, personal

rhetoric does us no good--none. It merely poisons the well, making

real change--real reform--more difficult.

> 

> In my initial piece to Director Maddox, my final statement was "it seems to me your main concern should be to protect the well-being of U.S. Citizens, and no one else."  Never did I indicate that it would be prudent to increase police staffing in one neighborhood over another.  However, you surely don't deny that crime on the North side far outweighs any other section of our city and is decaying at a rapid rate, while our schools, healthcare, quality of life, are suffering drastically, and of equal importance the loss of Jobs due to the illegal Mexican invasion and the criminals hiring them.   We have seen the gang graffiti in other areas of the city, specifically the eastside, compliments of Los Zetas and MS13.  We took photos of them and these are very violent people, some trained by U.S. & Mexican armies and they are killers, a danger to all citizens.

> Past news reports, and more specifically appearing in today's Times Record, a more detailed report on the proposed budget of the City of Fort Smith, 2009.

> 

> Do you not believe that a proposed 2.5% cost of living pay increase flies in the face of the producing segment of the Fort Smith population, i.e. those of us who produce the revenue that undergirds all government activities.  Explanation:  As citizens are in the throes of losing jobs, salary cuts, loss of benefits, and those lucky enough to be employed are not receiving raises, etc. and this government has the audacity to provide city raises in these times of despair and to a segment of our population (city employees) who get guaranteed checks each week, any number of protections and an inordinate number of vacation days.  Aside from the aforementioned, it appears that we have a bloated city government. I would appreciate your revising your budget dealing with the subject of raises and expand your vistas and deal with reality.  Is this the way you run your households?

> 

> Secondly: As with the Fort Smith School Board who sees fit to give exorbitant raises yearly to school superintendent Benny Gooden under the guise that we must match salaries given by other cities of comparable size is indeed preposterous.  You give raises if the money is available and if the subject warrants the raise. This type of logic is creeping into our city government and must be dismantled immediately.  What other cities "do" is no concern of ours, bad decisions that look good are still bad and costly.

> 

> Now comes the F.S. Civic Center.  An overpriced loser by any standard.  The only reason for its existence is that "other cities have one".   Now comes the call for $2 million to subsidize this White Elephant.   Where is the money proposed to come from? The producers of course, in one form or another.  Gentlemen: I'm tired of you folks immersed in government, with all your grandiose plans for our city, depending on me and other producers to subsidize your ill-thought out propositions.

> 

> And then there is the so-called (ever expanding) public transit system, which you folks in government state that the Feds and the State are paying for....where do you think the State & Fed get the money?

> 

> Pare down!  By the way, what is the financial burden placed on the taxpaying citizens due to the ever increasing number of  illegal Mexican and OTM invasions?  These invasions are producing an economic and political genocide of middleclass Americans.  Gentlemen, you never have the guts to discuss this matter publicly.  Apparently you don't want to anger the contractors, the businesses and the city government which employ illegals in violation of 8 USC Federal Law.  To heck with the vast majority of citizens.

> 

> 5.       Gentlemen: have you forgotten we are a sovereign state and we have every Constitutional right and responsibility to protect all aspects of citizenry.  The North side is nothing more than a third world dumping ground, brought on by lethargic justice and law enforcement agencies...and I am being euphemistic here, while the likes of Tyson, OK Foods, etc. are making millions off the backs of the producers...i.e. me, as well as the illegals.  One can only ask if  Justice and Law Enforcement agencies are on the take?
