Immigration - Illegals costing lives?
Could this be true?
If it is, where's the outrage?...

At DiscoverTheNetwork.org , Randy Hall writes about the ramifications of illegal immigration:
"While the mainstream media is focused on the Iraq war, this ongoing silent war is 'taking its toll in lives and domestic tranquility,' said Jim Gilchrist, founder of the Minuteman Project.
'Since 9/11 alone, about 45,000 U.S. residents have been killed in action via homicide or manslaughter at the hands of illegal aliens, and about another quarter of a million to 300,000 have been wounded,' Gilchrist told Cybercast News Service in an interview.
Gilchrist said he used the terms 'killed in action' and 'wounded' intentionally 'because essentially, we have a war going on here that's not a declared war, that's not a conventional war, but it is costing us 9,000 lives a year.'
That amounted to 'about 15 times the rate of KIAs [soldiers killed in action] in Iraq,' he said."
