Biden’s Open Border Is Hastening the “South Africanization” of U.S.

By Selwyn Duke

If you believe that, as a writer puts it today, “failure is the plan,” a new report won’t surprise you. It warns that the type of violence witnessed in South Africa and Mexico — and that has reached our shores — is poised to get far worse. After all, our federal and many state governments privilege illegal aliens over Americans while coddling crooks and hamstringing cops and good citizens. What’s more, criminals, many of whom are reportedly illegals, are going high-tech:

As in South Africa and Mexico, they’re using “signal jammers” to prevent their victims from being able to call the police for help.

Commentator Olivia Murray introduces the story, writing, where “else would you expect ground zero in this saga of anarcho-tyranny — a stage of government dysfunction in which the state can ‘ruthlessly’ legislate and penalize trivial matters but is hopelessly incapable of fulfilling its actual duty and guaranteeing inalienable rights — but the former (southern) border, de facto dissolved by the Biden-Harris regime and their coterie of progressive Democrats keen to foster dystopian terrors; cartel members are now using “signal jammers” to sabotage communications and prevent any type of response from law enforcement as they carry out their criminal activities.”

Not Penny-ante Operators

The cartels, do note, are billion-dollar operations boasting military-grade weaponry including belt-fed gatling guns, drone bombs, land mines, and even FGM 148 Javelin infrared-guided missile launchers, which can destroy tanks and low-flying helicopters, according to USA Today.

Apropos to this and the signal-jammer story, Murray presents the following tweet from American Tribune co-founder Will Tanner.

Assuming the above are actually cartel members (I’ve no information to the contrary), note that with how they’re equipped they look like any professional military.

Murray then paints a scenario. “Imagine being an American rancher with land along the border, finding yourself under attack from cartel members intent on taking your property or the lives of you and your family, and you have no way to call for help because the sicarios are using signal jammers,” she writes; “instead you’re utterly alone, just like the white farmers of South Africa who have been raped, beaten, and killed by ruthless criminals in nearly identical situations. (I’ve written on the signal jammers being used in South African assaults here, and more of the situation at large here and here.)”

This has already happened south of the border, too. A famous case is that of now legendary Alejo Garza Tamez, a 77-year-old rancher who in 2010 mounted a lone, Alamo-like defense of his property after refusing to yield to Los Zetas cartel gangsters who demanded he cede his land to them. He killed four of the miscreants and wounded two before finally falling to a bullet himself (video below).

No Isolated Event

Murray presents other more recent stories in the same vein. Last year, for example, Breitbart ran the headline, “GRAPHIC PHOTOS: Ranch in Mexican Border City Turned into Cartel Killing Field.”

The Gulf Cartel seized a property in the Mexican border city of Reynosa, Tamaulipas, from the owners “by force,” the site reports. Moreover, an activist group discovered 16 mass graves in Reynosa alone, allegedly the cartel’s handiwork.

Then there’s the following New York Times title and subhead from February:

“A Family Ranch, Swallowed Up in the Madness of the Border. Desperate migrants. Cartel violence. It’s all happening in the Chiltons’ backyard.”

The above is in the United States, do note.

A few more headlines:

• “’Never seen it at this level‘: Texas rancher forced to defend home after migrants enter property. ‘They’re coming to our houses at night,’…”
• “Texas ranchers say their land is at the mercy of cartels.”
• “‘This is a war’: Meet the Texas ranchers forming their own border militia.”

It’s not just borderlands, either. As alluded to earlier and as ABC 7 reported in December, “Gangs from South America use security jammers to break in to expensive homes across country … including metro Detroit.”

“Police said they are highly functional and well-trained,” the site added.

And a dishonorable mention goes to violent Salvadoran gang MS-13, which now has a strong presence on suburban Long Island, New York, and has murdered people there.

Thank an Immigrationist

While these problems are rightly blamed on our open borders, also culpable are open minds — so open that the brains have fallen out.

That is to say, 85 to 90 percent of our post-1967 legal immigrants have come from the Third World. Yet was it ever a good idea to admit massive numbers of poor people from dysfunctional, crime-ridden nations? Insofar as it is allowed, isn’t immigration meant to be mutually advantageous and benefit the host country as well as the newcomer?

Or is America supposed to be the world’s soup kitchen and international housing project?

(Or maybe, just perhaps, immigration is a “voter project”?)

Of course, being imperiled by south-of-the-border banditos is not unprecedented. More than a century ago, Mexican guerrilla and criminal Pancho Villa assassinated Americans and, in 1916, attacked the town of Columbus, New Mexico. The response, mind you, was not admonitions about “tolerance” and assurances that “our strength lies in our diversity.”

Instead, a U.S. Army expeditionary force under General John Pershing was ordered to enter Mexico and hunt Villa down. While they ultimately didn’t find him, they did kill 190 of his men, including his second in command — and made a statement.

That was then. Today, we worry about Ukraine’s border integrity and spend billions of dollars fighting a proxy war against Russia (inching ever closer to nuclear conflict). But what’s the bigger threat?

Is Moscow authoring our southern-border invasion? Or is that the handiwork of enemies closer to home — including those within?

Good stuff, Selwyn. Keep on trucking!

The use of these 'signal jammers' sure does make a solid case for hanging onto land line phones. And, also,
a good case for having a ham radio or a GMRS 50 watt radio as an emergency backup method of communications.

Useless military, border patrol not allowed to do their job, freebies for illegals that our own people don't get. Our children are hungry, can't get medical or dental care while illegals get it free. Illegals bring their grandparents who are immediately enrolled in Medicare, costing us billions. Millions of illegals being registered to vote. Politicians selling themselves to Big Whatever like street corner hookers.
Tell me this isn't planned.

a somnolent citizenry is the 'why' to all that is going on. will the citizenry ever awaken? at some point it will, but from that point forward what takes place will be determined by how powerful the other side has been allowed to become.
