DHS and TSA is allowing illegal aliens to fly on commercial airliners without valid identification, according to the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC).
Could you or I get on a commercial flight anywhere in America without a US government issued photo ID? Go ahead and try it. I would bet we would not get very far.
That is not true for person who has violated the law and crossed the US border without permission, they can fly on their word alone.
From Breitbart Texas:
“The aliens who are getting released on their own recognizance are being allowed to board and travel commercial airliners by simply showing their Notice to Appear forms,” NBPC’s Local 2455 Spokesman, Hector Garza, told Breitbart Texas.
“This is not the CBP [Customs and Border Protection] or another federal agency renting or leasing an aircraft, these are the same planes that the American public uses for domestic travel,” said Garza. “This just adds insult to injury. Not only are we releasing unknown illegal aliens onto American streets, but we are allowing them to travel commercially using paperwork that could easily be reproduced or manipulated on any home computer. The Notice to Appear form has no photo, anyone can make one and manipulate one. They do not have any security features, no watermark, nothing. They are simply printed on standard copy paper based on the information the illegal alien says is the truth.”
Spokesman Garza continued, “We do not know who these people are, we often have to solely rely on who they say they are, where they say they came from, and the history they say they have. We know nothing about most of them, ICE releases them into the American public, and now they are boarding aircraft at will with a simple paper document that anyone can easily alter or reproduce themselves.”
How safe does this revelation make you feel?
We know that crossing the border are drug dealers, gang members and even Al-Queda. What we don’t know is how many. If we use the politically correct euphemistic term “undocumented alien”, by definition those crossing the border have no identification! Their identities are unknown. We must take them at their word that they are who they claim to be and then allow them free access to the country and it’s benefits and services.
The UN Office on Drugs and Crime’s “Transnational Organized Crime in Central America and the Caribbean” revealed that individuals from the terror-prone Somalia were traveling to Central America in efforts to illegally enter the United States. The report states:
“Central Americans are not the only ones being smuggled through Mexico to the United States. Irregular migrants from the Horn of Africa (Eritrea, Somalia, and Ethiopia), as well as South Asia (Bangladesh, Nepal, India), China, and other African and Asian states are being smuggled through Central America.”
In light of the UN report, possible public safety risks posed by illegal aliens who claim to be from Central America flying unidentified and without effective documentation are further illuminated by a previous in-depth analysis of Somalia by the nonpartisan Council on Foreign Relations. They wrote on Somalia:
“Its porous borders mean that individuals can enter without visas, and once inside the country, enjoy an almost complete lack of law enforcement. Somalia has long served as a passageway from Africa to the Middle East based on its coastal location on the Horn of Africa, just a boat ride away from Yemen. These aspects make Somalia a desirable haven for transnational terrorists, something Al-Qaeda has tried to capitalize on before, and is trying again now.”
What are we allowing to happen under our very noses? Where are the everyday Americans on this? Are we now shamed into silence to the point that a badguy can get on an aircraft without an id? Do they have to go though the scanners or do they get a pass on that too?
