Who Mourns for the Innocent?

In the upside-down world in which we live, crowds gather, and protest, and raise hell for those who die in the process of breaking the law. The victims of those who break the law are often forgotten.
It’s true that Laken Riley, a student at the University of Georgia, and Iryna Zarutska, who was riding a train in Charlotte made news when they were murdered.
But much bigger news was made by George Floyd, and now by Renee Nicole Good, both in Minneapolis and both in the process of breaking the law.
Protests followed in both cases, but not for Katie Abraham.
Who’s she? Just a young girl who was killed by a drunk illegal alien shielded by the sanctuary policies in Illinois. You never heard of her or hundreds of other victims of illegal aliens who get no news conferences and no protests.

Two articles, both from Fox Digital crossed my desk, and made me wonder. Why do innocent victims often go unnoticed?
In the first article entitled, “An illegal immigrant killed my daughter – leftists march for Renee, not for Katie,” Joe Abraham mourns for his daughter who was killed by an illegal alien. Katie was stopped at a red light when she was rammed by a vehicle going about 80 miles per hour. The driver was Julio Cucul-Bol, who Abraham says was drunk. Joe Abraham would like to know why his daughter’s death was ignored by the media:
Yet when my daughter was violently killed, there were no viral videos, no breathless media panels, no emotional press conferences and no candlelight vigils amplified by politicians and pundits. Where were the stories about how the car Katie was riding in — stopped at a red light — was struck from behind at nearly 80 miles per hour by a drunk-driving illegal alien? Where was the outrage over how first responders had to pry the vehicle open like a tuna can to pull my daughter’s lifeless body from the wreckage?
It’s hard to imagine the emotions of a man like Joe Abraham, seeing George Floyd deified, and the policeman who tried to arrest him convicted of murder, and an entire summer of protests – all for a street thug. Katie Abraham got none of that. She, of course, was innocent, the victim of a lawbreaker, and of the policies of a sanctuary state.

The second article, “Meet the Minnesotans killed by illegal immigrants that Walz, Dems never held news conferences for,” by Andrew Miller, hones in on Minnesota. Several of them, he writes have been killed in the last few years by immigrants who were in our country illegally – the people that Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey refer to as “neighbors.”
You won’t know the names, but you could look them up.
Victoria Eileen Harwell, killed in a car wreck by an intoxicated Ecuadorian. Hallie Helgeson, an 18-year-old killed along with her boyfriend, 19-year-old Brady Heiling, struck head-on by an intoxicated Honduran national while traveling in Wisconsin. America Mafalda Thayer, murdered and beheaded by her Cuban national boyfriend. What does Tim Walz have to say about these people?
What does Jacob Frey think about these deaths? Not much, if anything. From the article:
“Governor Walz, Lt. Gov Flanagan and the rest of the Minnesota DFL leaders have forgotten what it means to be an American or a Minnesotan,” Adam Schwarze, former Navy SEAL and GOP U.S. Senate Candidate in Minnesota told Fox News Digital. “Where is the outrage for our innocent citizens killed by criminals? Where is their press conference, their candlelight vigil. Enough is enough. We need new leadership.”
The news conferences, the screaming headlines, the violent protests, the fake murder charges and convictions are reserved for the guilty with George Floyd as the poster boy. Renee Nicole Good was no George Floyd, but she, like him, was disobeying a direct order from officers. Her death was a shame, and totally avoidable, but happened while she was breaking the law. She will now be made into a martyr for the left-wing cause of open borders and sparking nationwide unrest.

Chuck Devore, of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, and a frequent guest on the Cardle & Woolley show on Talk 1370 in Austin, in an article entitled “Left seeks martyrs to fuel anti-Trump uprising as ICE enforcement operations ramp up nationwide,” says it’s a calculated stragey:
Elected officials on the left are whipping up hysteria not just to fundraise and fend off primary challenges from their even more extreme flanks, but to provoke confrontations that could produce martyrs. Martyrs, as history shows, are powerful accelerants for political violence, as the death of George Floyd in 2020 in Minneapolis showed. They rally the base and demonize opponents — with the two main strategic objectives being to pressure administrations to retreat while costing Republicans in the 2026 midterms and the 2028 presidential contest.
DeVore’s point is well taken. The left got a summer’s worth of mileage out of the George Floyd “murder,” and now they will not let the death of Rene Good go to waste.

Walz and Frey provide more clues as to what’s a play here.
After Good was killed, Walz and Frey both appeared in videos. Walz urged more protests, with the obligatory disclaimer to keep them peaceful (he doesn’t mean it). He suggested that protesters video ICE agents for footage to be used against them later in court.
Video: Walz goes on TV and whips up resentment against ICE.
Frey was even more to the point. He stated that his city is being occupied by federal agents representing a different set of values from those in Minnesota. Minnesotans, according to Frey, want open borders and illegal drunken drivers and drug dealers, and Somali scammers because those are our neighbors.
Video: At about 4:25, Mayor Frey says Minneapolis has been invaded by officers that do not share Minnesota’s values.
I think Frey has a point, and maybe the Democrats can use the current political climate in Minnesota and other blue states to put a Democrat back into office in 2028. If that happens, the new president can open the border, just like Joe Biden did, and bring in unlimited numbers of foreign workers along with drug cartels, and potential murderers. Just remember, that’s one of the main reasons that Donald Trump was elected in the first place.

But here’s the rub: If Democrats open the border yet again, and flood the country with illegal aliens yet again, Donald Trump will not be around to fix it. That means we’ll likely have a new group of innocent Americans dead at the hands of people who ought not to have been here, and for whom no news conferences or protests will be held.
