Killer Media

Unable to convince the new internet savvy, blogger-reading, non-traditional news source American public that our military is losing the Global War on Terrorism; unable to persuade us that our generals are incompetent, lying traitors; the left has taken the low road.

If they won't believe those lies, then by God, we'll just accuse our front line soldiers, the men and women serving in the most dangerous places on the face of the planet protecting the rights of all Americans, of being cold-blooded murderers.

Surely, the American public will believe that.

(No, we won't, and don't call me Shirley)

MoveAmericaForward has spent the last 24 hours researching the latest article from the NYSlimes on violence by veterans. To say the Slimes played fast and loose with their math is an understatement of massive proportions.

Go read it.

Some persepctive from the Manhattan Institute:

While no government agencies specifically track crimes by illegal aliens, there have been some efforts to quantify the loss. Last December, Mac Johnson set out to investigate the number of homicides perpetrated by illegal aliens.
Since the federal government would not provide any useful information, he contacted all 50 statehouses. Three months later, he had fewer than a dozen responses. Only one state, Vermont, provided any useful information.
He then set out to statistically estimate the number of murders by illegal aliens based on available crime data and conservative estimates of the actual number of illegal aliens in the country – which, of course, nobody really knows.
He found that between 1,806 and 2,510 people in the U.S. are murdered annually by illegal aliens. If he's right, that would represent between 11 percent and 15 percent of all murders in the U.S.
In one study of a sample 55,000 illegal immigrants serving prison sentences in the U.S., it was discovered that they are responsible for over 400,000 arrests and over 700,000 felony crimes.
According to Heather McDonald of the Manhattan Institute, 95 percent of all outstanding warrants for homicide (which total 1,200 to 1,500) target illegal aliens. Up to two-thirds of all fugitive felony warrants (17,000) are for illegal aliens.
