A Mexican national in the US illegally was being taken into custody by ICE and tried to run over the officers with his car. ICE agents shot and killed him. The man’s son released this:
My father, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a hardworking Mexican man, was the man killed this morning by ICE in the East End. My father has been in this country for nearly 35 years, working in construction to provide for myself, my two brothers, and my mother. He was in the process of obtaining his work permit through the legal process. He was on his way to work, picking up his workers. My father did not deserve this. Please respect my family’s privacy during this time. There are a lot of videos and pictures out there of my father’s final moments that I do not wish to see. For more information, I will be speaking at a press conference, with the support of LULAC Tomorrow, Wednesday, July 8 at 10AM at The Greater Coalition for Justice – 150 West Parker Rd Houston, TX, 5th floor.
I note:
- How have you been “in the process of obtaining” a work permit for nearly 4 decades?
- If you want your privacy respected, the best way to do that is not have a press conference
- Pictures show him to be 52 years old, he illegally immigrated here at the age of 17.
On thing I do agree with is the need for an investigation. All law enforcement shootings should be investigated, just as citizen self defense shootings are. However, when and if the investigation discovers that the man’s wife is also illegal, she should be immediately deported. Of course, the sons are citizens and can’t be, but mom’s got to go.
Local politicians say:
We need answers, and Congress must act with meaningful immigration reform that reduces unlawful border crossings, addresses the backlog of asylum cases, and creates a pathway to legal status.
There is only one way to do that. If you create a pathway for illegals to become legal, you will simply get more unlawful crossings. The only way to do that is for Congress to throw open the borders and make everyone who comes in legal. You cannot have open borders and a welfare state. It is impossible for the two to coexist.
The illegal immigration ship has sailed. Too many people want the borders open. Our nation is about to fall. Keep prepping. It’s going to get ugly.

Congress could issue a contract to finish the Wall, put up watch towers, and set up a kill zone with armed patrols, minefields, and machine gun nests with interlocking fields of fire.
Granted the Berlin Wall wasn’t completely impervious, but it was time-proven as “effective enough.”
Then start rounding up all the “immigrants” who can’t provide valid papers and put them in concentration camps until their home countries pay to ship them back. If their home countries refuse to take them back, sell them off as slaves, as allowed for by the 13th Amendment.
The “anchor babies” can go with their parents or to state care, just like parentless American children.

The immigration fight is already lost. Its possible that 1 in 5, probable at least 1 in 7, and certain that 1 in 9 people here in the US are illegals.
Our national debt is $40 trillion. Thats $115,000 for every resident, or $350,000 per taxpaying resident. That debt is increasing by $2 trillion per year.
That is insurmountable as an issue. It isnt dooming or black pilling, its simply reality. We are long past the point of no return.
