In one of the sicker developments in the Luis Ramirez murder case, Hazleton Mayor Barletta has used the murder of Luis Ramirez to point out that Americans have been murdered by undocumented immigrants. According to local news reports, Pennsylvania's "Mayor of the Year" and flogger of the immigration issue Lou Barletta said that:
“The flip side” of Ramirez’s death is that there are murder victims of illegal immigrants as well, Barletta said, citing the death of a Lewisburg woman at the hands of illegal immigrants.
It is SICK to bring this up? Why, because it doesn't push your agenda. There are infinitely MORE Americans murdered by ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS than the other way around. It is sick to mention that? Get over it, it doesn't change the fact just because you want to keep it quiet.
If you want to push a political agenda, please remember to distinguish between legal and illegal. It is insult to our legal immigrants when you lump them in with criminals.
