Tuberculosis - Making a Comeback!

A high school in Sacramento, CA is now reporting students infected with tuberculosis.

A California high school is at the center of a tuberculosis outbreak linked to an infectious student who tested positive for active TB in February, county health officials said Wednesday. 

Four more students at Grant Union High School in Sacramento have contracted active TB. 

Three related tuberculosis cases are considered an outbreak, Sacramento County Department of Health and Human Services spokeswoman Laura McCasland said.

Meanwhile in a totally unrelated story, the famous Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Maricopa County - Mesa, AZ is asking:

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he wants to know why the immigrants he turns over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement keep coming back. 

“I want an explanation and investigation as to why 3,800 of the people in my jails that are charged with state and local crimes are here illegally,” Arpaio told Newsmax TV. “We turn them over to ICE and they keep coming back over and over again.” 

Arpaio stated that he has sent a letter to Homeland Security demanding an answer. 

“How come they’re not deported, or if they are, why do they keep coming back across the border?” Arpaio questioned.

Arpaio is putting the blame at Obama's door and even suggesting that he is allowing this influx of immigrants in order to pressure Congress to spend money, rather than deal with the problem in a more realistic manner.

Why are we not using military on the border? Only in the modern day United States do we allow such stupidity as it pertains to immigration policy.

While Mexico is well-known for blasting the US immigration policies, their very own country is so strict and forceful that they simply do not have major problems with illegal immigration.

Mexico will not allow you into their country unless you can prove to be of worth and you have the ability to support yourself and your family. 

Unlike the United States where immigrants from Mexico are offered EBT, Medicaid, education in public schools, and even financial support for college. In many cases, Universities offer resident rates for immigrants, while students who are merely from another state here in the US are required to pay more for being a non-resident. 

Yet, we are the ones who are inhumane?!?! Excuse me?

Mexico’s border police have reportedly engaged in rapes, robberies, and beatings of illegal aliens from Central and South America on their way to the U.S. Yet compared with the extensive immigrant-advocacy network in the U.S., few pressure groups exist in Mexico to protest such treatment. If Americans run afoul of Mexico’s border police, watch out. In 1996, the Mexican police beat and shot in the back a teenage American girl who had led them on a high-speed chase in Tijuana. No one in the U.S. or Mexico raised a fuss, at least publicly.

You can read more about this insanity here. 

It has not been a secret that this country is suffering from the influx of illegal immigrants. Not only have they brought with them unskilled laborers, criminals, a huge burden on our budget from federal and state funds, but it is also no secret that they are bringing in diseases like tuberculosis. While the entire world has had issues controlling TB, the United States has been extremely successful in keeping our numbers down however, within the last 10 years and even more, the numbers have climbed and will continue to do so.

Our immigration policy in the United States currently is one of failure and while we are criticized, these same countries doing the criticizing have more stricter policies themselves. It is pure insanity! 

Make no mistake the people coming here are not interested in being American. They remain loyal to Mexico.

‘Sheriff Joe’ Arpaio in the Lead For Senate

Arpaio is being urged to run for Senator in Arizona.

Of course, it's not surprising that the citizens of AZ would like to chose someone who would be willing to crack down on immigration, which is a huge problem in AZ.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio led a field of potential Republican Senate candidates in Arizona with 21 percent in a poll of likely GOP primary voters last week.

Rep. Jeff Flake, who announced his candidacy for the seat of retiring Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) on Monday, finished second with 16.8 percent in the Summit Consulting Group survey. Former Rep. J.D.

Hayworth took third, with 16.6 percent. He was unsuccessful in his primary challenge to Sen. John McCain last year.

The auto-dial poll of 1,881 likely GOP primary voters was conducted Thursday. It had a margin of error of 3 percentage points, which would put the top three finishers in a statistical tie.
