Illegal Immigration Again, Still Murdering Citizens and Hidden by the Liberals

As I understand the law, a person having knowledge, or good reason to believe, that a crime has been or is about to be committed, is required both by law and by a sense of civic duty, to report that fact to the appropriate authorities. And that those authorities are, by virtue of their own special duties and bound by oath, are required, absolutely required, to undertake such further investigation and actions as provided by law.
But we know that does not always happen, don't we? Whether it is the feds, under the utterly worthless and vile Michael Chertoff, or local authorities (I dare not use the term 'public servants') have with impunity determined to ignore both the law and their own oaths of office when it is convenient for them to do so.
The results, the breakdown in the rule of law were predictable and predicted. Those whose nature it is to obey the law, will, for a time, continue to do so as long as others around them also continue to do so. Indeed, that is one of the characteristics of a tradition of self-government such as we once had in this nation. But, as the saying is, 'who will watch the watchers?''. And what happens when the rule of law breaks down?
Lawlessness becomes the norm, at high levels and at low. When those in high places connive to ignore the law and their duty, and by that we include 'failure (or refusal) to uphold and enforce the law'', then we get terrible and worsening results.
Comes now yet another example, here. An illegal alien was shielded from the consequences demanded by several laws by officials in San Francisco, California. And the results are grim, but not atypical. Three citizens dead at the hands of an illegal aien, a person who has no legal right even to be in the United States. A fact known to public officials. Public officials who REFUSED to do their duty.
Yes, Edwin Ramos, should, if convicted, be executed by public hanging the very same day. But the same penalty really should apply to all those officials at the city, state, and federal levels who made it possible for this shameful episode.
