Arrests on Chapman Ave.

I am writing to those people who condemn Orange police for arresting illegal aliens.

May I remind you that these people are here illegally? As a person who lives one block off of East Chapman Avenue, where hundreds of these men line up, I can tell you that they do cause problems. They litter, urinate in public, harass women and lie all over sidewalks and bus benches. I do not walk to the stores because of these men.

We are now seeing more and more of these “innocent” illegals walking through our neighborhoods. I caught one in my garage and one about to get in our truck. Crime is rising in our area because of the people who are here illegally.

I am so tired of people who don’t live near this growing problem thinking this police action is a terrible thing. What about my rights of protection and safety for myself, my property and my children? Thank you Orange police and Mayor Perez.
