Catholic Bishop - Defending America "Would Make Our Roads Less Safe"

The Roman Catholic Church is still fighting ANY efforts to control illegal immigration or terrorist activity. The latest example was seen in the swift Catholic reaction to the recently proposed "Real ID Act" in the US Congress.

The act's sponsor, Congressman James Sensenbrenner, said of this bill:

"American citizens have the right to know who is in their country, that people are who they say they are, and that the name on a driver's license is the holder's real name, not some alias."

"The 9/11 hijackers...chose our driver's licenses and state ID's as their forms of identification because these documents allowed them to blend in and not raise suspicion or concern. Mohammed Atta received a 6-month visa to stay in the U.S. yet received a Florida driver's license good for 6 years!"

"The Real ID Act will end this by establishing a uniform rule for all states that temporary driver's licenses for foreign visitors expire when their visa terms expire, and establishing tough rules for confirming identity before temporary driver's licenses are issued."

In a rapid response, chair of the US Bishops Committee on Migration, Bishop Gerald Barnes, promptly fired off a Feb 9 letter to all members of Congress titled, "Legislation Undermines Commitment To Refugees, Makes Nation Less Safe." 'His Excellency' wrote:

"Denying driver's licenses to all persons who are not lawfully present in the United States would make our roads less safe because the number of unlicensed, untrained, and uninsured drivers would increase dramatically and deny police officers the tools they need in investigating crime or assisting distressed persons in their communities."

Hmmmm......In the warped thinking of Catholicism, we should allow easy access to driver's licenses because clamping down on illegal aliens in the USA would lead to less safe roads! And, that giving illegals driver's licenses will help police in their fight against crime!!

Too bad the US Bishops haven't been so adamant about giving police officers "the tools they need in investigating" sex abuse crimes!

Rome continues to use illegal immigration as a great weapon to bring about the Mexicanization, and the resultant downfall, of the USA. Rome has always hated Protestant nations and worked for their destruction. As an added bonus, Osama Bin Laden and Moslem terrorists must be pleased with these Catholic efforts to make it easy for terrorists to operate within the United States.

Please pray daily that God protect the United States from – terrorists, illegal immigration, and the Roman Catholic Church.
