Open Borders Leads to ‘Burglary Tourism’

Come to America, and rob the place.

Say that there were mansions filled with jewels in a land where stealing is not a crime. That’s California.

While previously only American criminals could benefit from the looting, with open borders, any criminal can. And so some criminals have taken to crossing the border or getting tourist visas, not to stay here, but to rob the place and then return to Latin America.

This is the sad state of America 2024. We’re just a place to visit for some professional looting.

Police in Glendale arrested four Colombian nationals this week in connection with what they said was a “burglary tourism” ring, including one person who was arrested just weeks ago after a high-speed police chase.

Bryan Martinez Vargas, 28, Jose Antonio Velasquez, 28, Edison Arley Pinzon Fandino, 27, and Luis Carlos Moreno, 29, were arrested Monday night for conspiracy to commit burglary.

Yes, we have a foreigner who who was arrested weeks ago and then continued to engage in criminal acts, and is still here because California Democrats banned cooperation with Immigration authorities which means any foreigner can come to California, commit any crimes he likes, and not have to worry about deportation.

Glendale Police Chief Manny Cid called Vargas’ second recent arrest this week “frustrating,” and that it “underscores the ongoing challenges our officers confront in safeguarding our community.”

The “challenges” are a corrupt ruling party that is pro-crime, pro-illegal alien and anti-America.

Come to America, and rob the place. We have sunny beaches, nice homes and no functioning criminal justice system.
