Readers Write: Dead is dead

The Island Now

One has to feel sorry for Ms. Scherer of New Hyde Park.  She simply does not get it in her response to my letter.

Dead is dead.  However, how a U.S. citizen becomes dead is the question.

There are over 300 million Americans and each year thousands of them kill other American citizens for a variety of reasons.  It is almost impossible to determine, in advance,  whose these killers will be.

However, what they all have in common is the right to live in America on American soil. Sad that these killers exist, but they do.  And the slaughter that Scherer mentions is by American citizens killing other American citizens.

However, due to the policies of mayors and governors that permit illegals to live in America instead of deporting them, they allow some of these illegals the opportunity to kill.  If they were not here in the U.S., those murdered Americans would still be alive.

There are between 10 to 20 million illegals living in America. How many Americans will be killed in the future by some of them?

I wonder how Scherer would feel if a member of her family was slaughtered by an illegal criminal immigrant? 

Just asking.
