We’re now entering the third week of the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) “Operation Catahoula Crunch” in Louisiana, and I can’t help but point out the concerning reaction coming from local residents, politicians, and media figures who seem to be defending the numerous criminal illegal aliens residing in our communities.

In recent years, both myself and other writers here on The Hayride have repeatedly pointed out just how big of a problem that illegal immigration is becoming in south Louisiana—from heinous crimes to straining public services. In fact, I’ve written at least five separate articles in the past two years on The Hayride about the barbaric crimes that illegal aliens have committed in Louisiana in recent times.

For years, illegal alien rapists, gang members, and murderers essentially have had free rein to victimize the good people of Louisiana. One would think that Louisiana residents and local officials would welcome Border Patrol and ICE agents coming into Louisiana to help tackle the illegal immigration crisis in Louisiana.

The local “Louisiana Last” media outlets have either covered up the rampant illegal alien crime problem in Louisiana and viciously shamed any public figure looking to solve this major issue. Many local and state politicians, irrespective of political affiliation, have either turned a blind eye from the Great Replacement of Louisiana citizens or have publicly defended illegal aliens.

However, the most notable disappointment–or “blackpill”–in my opinion concerning Operation Catahoula Crunch is nasty response coming from far-left agitators in the Greater New Orleans area who have harassed ICE agents and law enforcement agents.

In fact, employees from a bar in New Orleans called “Sports Drink” harassed law enforcement agents because the radical bar employees thought they were ICE agents. Turns out, those agents were actually part of the Louisiana AG’s Bureau of Investigation, and they arrested an alleged pedophile and Chinese national in New Orleans.

Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill responded to this specific instance of harassment against law enforcement and promised accountability against anyone threatening law enforcement:

The harassment coming from “Sports Drink” bar employees is just one example of the unhinged response coming from our fellow citizens who care more about criminal illegal aliens than our fellow citizens. You don’t have to go far on social media to find the many people who are actively thwarting ICE from detaining criminal illegal aliens.

With all of this information in mind, does anyone actually care about Louisiana citizens anymore? The local media, local politicians, and local radical activists all seem to care more about lawbreakers and foreigners over our struggling neighbors.

Fortunately, there are some solid local officials who are taking a stand against illegal immigration in Louisiana. Kenner Police Keith Conley is one of the leading local officials who is protecting the citizens of Kenner against criminal illegal immigrants.
