California Protects Illegal Who Bought Girl for Beer
Things are not happy in Monterey County. The California county, which Kamala won by 63%, is considered a ‘sanctuary’ for illegal aliens by the Department of Homeland Security.
But that sanctuary status was recently violated and local officials are outraged. So is the Solidarity Network: a pro-illegal alien group that ‘monitors’ immigration enforcement arrests.
Monterey County Board of Supervisors Chair Chris Lopez responded by announcing that a maternal health walk was cancelled. “Monterey County deeply values the contributions of our immigrant workers and families that strengthen our local communities and economy,” Monterey County Supervisor Luis Alejo posted. The Monterey Solidarity Network promised to fight.
“A family man was taken from the street as he was taking his son to school,” the pro-illegal organization that had vowed to fight against President Trump’s immigration enforcement fumed. “How is ripping a man from his family, outside of his home, terrorizing his children, considered ‘compassionate’?”
Considering the arrested man’s past relationship with a child: it might be very compassionate.
Back in the first year of the Obama administration, Monterey County was being enriched with exciting customs and two Mexican immigrants in the local city of Greenfield decided to transact a beautiful custom when the father of a 14-year-old girl traded her for 160 cases of beer, 100 cases of soda, 50 cases of Gatorade and assorted other foods along with $16,000.
Sadly the happy prospective nuptials between man and child were not to last because Marcelino de Jesus Martinez, the girl’s father, didn’t get his soda and beer, and called the cops on Maragrito de Jesus Galindo, his prospective son-in-law and failed provider of drinks.
Martinez had traded his daughter for beverages that he didn’t receive, and now he wanted a refund and perhaps his daughter back to trade for something better, maybe sandwiches or a lifetime of meals at Red Lobster.
The police arrived and arrested everyone involved on the grounds that Monterey County is pretty open-minded, but it wasn’t quite that open-minded. At least back then.
Greenfield Police Chief Joe Grebmeier said that selling girls as young as 12 has “become a local problem.”
“When I’m in Mexico, I have to respect Mexican laws. When you’re in the United States, you have to respect United States laws. That’s the bottom line,” he told CNN.
Three years later Grebmeier was ousted and the exact borders of Mexico and California have become debatable. The majority of the Greenfield City Council is Mexican and a good deal of local officials are as likely to follow Mexican laws as American ones.
While the media forgets, ICE has a long memory. They came, they saw and they arrested Maragrito de Jesus Galindo to the outraged protests of the pro-illegal alien activists at Solidarity Now who told reporters that they’re trying to find the soda groom a lawyer.
Even though he might well prefer a 14-year-old to a lawyer.
“Historically, immigrants have been scapegoated for many societal ills, and the current administration is trying that same old tactic. We urge the community to remember that immigrants have built this country, and that they are the backbone of the local agricultural and hospitality industries,” Monterey’s Solidarity Network complained.
And apparently the local beverage child trafficking industry.
ICE wasn’t scapegoating immigrants for societal ills since trading children for beer is not an American custom, as the media spent the worst part of a month in 2009 explaining to us.
This particular “societal ill” is not American and is being shielded by California officials.
ICE decided that the local family man might be better off in his home country where, as the media claimed at the time, selling children for beer is a “normal and honorable” custom.
Meanwhile California could do without its custom of sanctuary areas and pro-illegal activists.
Monterey’s Solidarity Network urges anyone to report ICE raids. This could be characterized as interference with federal law enforcement. And while some pro-illegal groups operate outside the law, the local Solidarity Network raises money through the Watsonville Law Center: a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit. That’s something that the IRS could put a stop to any time.
For now, ICE must chase men who practice their “traditional custom” of buying underage girls in exchange for beverages despite the interference of sanctuary counties and a sanctuary state.
From Gov. Gavin Newsom on down, the state’s rulers turn away from witnessing child abuse and instead use every possible leverage to prevent immigration authorities from doing their job.
“A family man was taken from the street,” the Solidarity Network mourned. But perhaps the citizens of Greenfield, Monterey County and California are better off for it.
The larger question is whether the custom of selling girls as young as 12 years old in Monterey County, which its old police chief described as a “local problem” has gone away or is being covered up. And unless federal law enforcement looks into it, we may never really know.
Sanctuary cities don’t just shield illegal aliens, they shield some of the worst crimes imaginable.
There should be no sanctuary and no safe spaces for men who trade girls for beer.
Once upon a time we understood that. Perhaps one day, Americans will be unable to believe that a political party and a state government did everything possible to protect such men.
