First Nation Reservation Grapples With
Transnational Crime

Original Article

A First Nation reservation located in upstate New York and extends into Canada says it is grappling with transnational and illegal border crosser crime. One of its law enforcement chiefs came to Teas seeking help. (snip) His territory, which straddles the international border, has been the target of human, drug and weapons smuggling, along with other crimes. The territory borders the Cornwall Port of Entry, includes Cornwall Island and smaller islands on the St. Lawrence River, and a coastal region of Quebec. In the U.S., it borders Massena POE in upstate New York, and the northernmost points of Franklin and St. Lawrence Counties.

Comments:

Mexican drug cartels seek to exploit an Indian reservation which straddles the Canada-New York border. The cartels are also buying New York farmland along a river separating the US from Canada to facilitate smuggling. The reservation's police force is working with DHS to combat both threats.

The cartels wriggle in everywhere, just like the Chinese. They all need to be hoovered up.

What is the "First Nations" stuff? Sounds like more of that PC stupid and quite frankly insulting "noble savage" nonsense. These modern native Americans weren't the first here. Who even knows who was first? Humans have lived in North and South America for 10's of thousands of years, some even saying 33,000 years now. That is Paleolithic and around the time the last Neanderthal were still hanging out in places like Spain. What we do know is the ones still around today and their many many ancestors made war, slaughtered, and enslaved group after group of indigenous people, no different than Europeans in Europe.

#5: You can blame the Canadians for the "First Nations" newspeak. We don't use those terms in the US, preferring the more accurate "native American" term instead. So Mexican cartels are trying -- and having some success -- at buying up US farmland. No doubt they understand already that Canada will abjectly neglect their side of the border (the Liberal Party is bought and paid for by Chinese and Mexican drug cartels) while feigning benign neglect. But neglect it they will... because they are getting paid to facilitate the trade in illicit drugs in North America (in both Canada and the US). PDJT has called a spade a spade with respect to Venezuela. Same thing needs to be done with Canada.

#5 So that's the one thing that upset you most about the article? I would be less concerned about what they call themselves than what is actually happening. They are trying to keep the drug smugglers out, but they're not getting enough help, especially from Canada, for such a large area. But the most concerning thing is that drug cartels are buying up land along the St. Lawrence river. I will never understand why the US allows foreigners to buy land, especially those who are not our friends.

#7 Excuse me. Who said that was the only thing I find objectionable? But what exactly in this article is new? Oh, Canada is being neglectful of it's border with the US and allowing untold amounts of drugs and illegals to pass through it like the sieve it is AND the US is allowing foreign nationals to buy up our land and local people regardless of who they are pay the price. Not even remotely new. That has been the case for decades. I feel for anyone who is personally dealing with this but I also find the liberal Canadian mentality to be very much to blame for their own woes.

I think this is the St. Regis reservation, part of the Iroquois federation. It has been a trouble spot for decades. The term First Nation makes more sense than native american. Think about it.

President Donald Trump’s tasteless comments following the apparent murder of Hollywood legend Rob Reiner on Sunday showed that the president, at least on that occasion, had a speck in his eye. Before criticizing Trump, however, liberals should make sure to remove the logs from their own eyes. (Matthew 7:3) Recall, for instance, that a swarm of liberals, including Reiner himself, once greeted news of the late conservative media icon Rush Limbaugh’s cancer diagnosis — and later Limbaugh’s death — with politically-motivated heartlessness. “Only one thing to say about Rush Limbaugh getting a Presidential Medal if Freedom at The State of the Union: I loathe this *****g man,” Reiner wrote

The Bondi Beach attack in Australia was shocking, but not at all surprising. Some of the details were distinctive — an idyllic spot on the Pacific Ocean instantly turned into a killing field; a father-son terror squad — but the basic picture of radicalized Muslim immigrants targeting a gathering of Jews was drearily familiar. These events follow the same pattern because the fundamentalist version of Islam is, at its root, hostile to Jews. Let’s say, for the sake of argument, that there was a refugee flow of Unitarians, and some proportion of those Unitarians were antagonistic to traditional Christians — such that they vandalized their businesses, harassed them in the streets,
