Letter to Mr. Steller

I am responding to your article published today in the Arizona Daily Star entitled “Recent Immigrants no threat to American identity”. I always read your articles and usually agree but not this one for several reasons. Representative David Stringer does not speak for those of us who voted for Trump. You assert that Trump was elected because those of us who voted for him are racist. That may be true for some, but the ones I know who voted for him including myself did so out of disgust for a Congress,(both parties) who have been bought and sold, a Congress that ignores the welfare of the average citizen and always does the bidding of the lobbyists who shower them with money and write legislation to benefit themselves. I hope you took the time to watch 60 Minutes this evening when the opioid epidemic was featured and where the Food and Drug investigators were made toothless The Legislation was passed without a negative vote from anyone in the House or the Senate. It was signed into law by Obama, the Obama that was and still is adored by most members of the Press. Illegal immigration is totally out of control. Congress even with Trump is not willing to pass legislation. As a result there is chaos at the border. No fence will ever stop this when all they have to do is assert they need shelter and they are admitted. The separation of families is to create the tumult of indignation such as expressed in your article. How can any country function if the borders are wide open and hordes of humanity cross over? As to people of the Muslim faith, no one should care what anyone believes. It is not as simple as that. The radical believers have been creating problems all over the world and they seem to be in control. It will not be long before it grows in magnitude. This religion when in dominance lords it over all others. Don’t take my word for it just read your history books. I have read many. I am not willing to let them dictate who or what the rest of us want to believe. Trump is doing all he can while all it seems are determined to keep him from draining the swamp as we want him to accomplish. Jack B, Walters .
