She would still be alive if he hadn't been here

Sixteen-year-old Gilbert, Arizona resident Kelly Tracy is the latest in a long line of recent tragic fatalities involving allegedly drunk illegal immigrant drivers.

Kelly and her brother were on their way to a school function at approximately 6:30 a.m. on Saturday morning when cops say Manuel Contreras-Galdean plowed into them "almost head-on".

This latest incident comes less than a month after another illegal immigrant smashed into Phoenix police officer Shane Figueroa's cruiser as he was responding to an emergency call, causing the young officer's death.

It's getting to the point where Phoenix-area drivers are becoming afraid to leave their driveways, lest they be flattened by another of these menaces in the epidemic of impaired illegal aliens on the roads.

And people scratch their heads and wonder why Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, who makes immigration enforcement a centerpiece of his administration, keeps getting reelected by such wide margins despite numerous complaints about his heavy-handed tactics.

The next time an activist argues that unchecked illegal immigration harms no one, please point them to these cases as graphic examples of just how wrong they are.
