Jerry Gonzalez: FORMER MALDEF GOON – now errand boy, mouthpiece for Sam Zamarripa Inc. wants you to read this- me too

Enforcement works, whether on immigration or illegal gambling, by D.A. King, Marietta Daily Journal, October 19, 2007
“California is going to become a Hispanic state and if anyone doesn’t like it they should leave, they ought to go back to Europe.” – Mario Obledo, founder of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, 1998.
“This has set us back tremendously.” – Jerry Gonzalez, executive director of the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials on Cobb County’s policy of using available federal tools to enforce American law. (as reported by the Atlanta newspaper), Oct. 24, 2006.
Having long studied illegal immigration and the characters involved in that organized crime here in Georgia, it is very interesting to me to watch as GALEO’s Jerry Gonzalez receives media attention in the MDJ and elsewhere.
Gonzalez hopes we will believe that equal application of the law is somehow “anti-immigrant” “anti-Latino” and “discriminatory.”
Gonzalez is less than happy to know that little tidbits of facts like these get out to the public, particularly from this American. His normal response is to wail that a “convicted felon” should not be allowed to speak out against illegal immigration or ethnic hustlers. The criminal conviction here is true enough.
In 1977, this writer admitted to taking bets on football games and was punished by the U.S. court system with a fine and probation.
I never thought to use the “I was just looking for a better life” defense – or to scream that having violated the law, I could blame enforcement on “discrimination.” Because enforcement works, I would put the odds of my ever gambling illegally again at a thousand to one. Enforcement of our immigration laws will eventually have the same result on illegal aliens and criminal employers.
