The Mexican Mafia is a serious threat to the United States. By the Mexican Mafia, I am not referring to the relatively small group of organized Hispanic criminals of that name that formed in the California prison setting in the past twenty years, but the larger, more loosely-connected groups of drug, kidnap and crime gangs that have invaded nearly every large American city and many, many smaller towns over the past few years. These ugly excuses for humanity have even the Crips and the Bloods banding together in some areas for protection!

We often hear solitary sound bytes about the MS-13 gang and that they have moved into large cities such as Chicago and Atlanta. What we do NOT hear about, however-at least in the mainstream media- is the constant and escalating violent crime wave that is occurring in so many smaller cities and towns. And, in many cases, the victims are immigrants themselves, and therefore beneath the notice of the major press. Many cities have adopted sanctuary city policies and thus don't keep official records of the legal status of either the victim or the perpetrators. So, when major crimes occur among these populations, the local officials and newspapers bury any reports on the inside pages and seldom report the results of investigations. It is as though if not reported, it isn't happening. In the view of many of the public, that is invariably true-they didn't see any headline news item, so it escapes their notice. Often too, both perpetrators and victims are illegal immigrants-not a fact public officials want brought into the spotlight for political reasons.

The majority of these crimes appear to be drug related. Apparently, the casual reader assumes this is a one-on-one drug deal gone wrong. In many cases, it is far bigger than that. The recent case in Birmingham Alabama of five men found dead in an apartment, tortured and their throats slit illustrates the fact this was not a case of someone who didn't pay for a rock of cocaine: this is organized drug crime perpetrated by a rival gang either over drug sales turf or theft of a major shipment. That both the victims and the killers were nearly all illegals is hardly reported. This is not the only incident of this type-they've been happening with increasing frequency across the country.

Not only are these inhumane thugs killing their countrymen, several American petty drug dealers who have gotten mixed up with these people have found that there is no honor among thieves when they cross any
