Iowa Congressional Candidate Calling for Micro-Chips to Be Placed in Illegal Immigrants

You can't escape the nut cases they're all around... On one hand you don't wanna give away too much power on the other hand, you don't wanna complete ignore folks especially when some of them carry badges, spent time in the military or they're running for office ina politically charged climate that likes to scapegoat those who see most vulnerable.Case in point is Pat Bertroche, the blowhard running for Congress in Iowa. He wants to put microchips in immigrants.

People may laugh and blow this off as an impossibility, but hey, once upon a time removing people from office and creating seperate but equal facilities seemed far fetched. Enter Jim Crow.

Once upon a time, rounding up American citizens and putting them in prisons was outlandish. Who would've thought that because this nation of immigrants was at war with the motherland of one her many immigrants would result in Japanese Americans being put in internment camps?  No one thought it.. but it did go down.

From cross burnings to bombs being dropped on American citizens, we've done crazy things over the years-Why would it be far-fetched to put microchips on immigrants? If for reason, it allows those in power to run an experiment of sorts with no tracking technology.

What we do know is that already an estimated 11 states including us here in Texas are shooting to adapt Arizona type immigration laws.. Things are getting heated... Lets stay alert.

Below is the story that appeared in today's Huffington Post

Illegal immigrants: can't live with them, can't put them on leashes, like human chattel. But at least one Republican candidate for the 3rd District Congressional primary in Iowa, birthplace of presidential primaries, wants to do something about this dilemma. By which I mean to say he wants to implant microchip tracking devices inside illegal aliens, because why not, right? Then we can all keep tabs on them with our android phones!

The Iowa Independent has the details:

While speaking at a Tama County Republican forum, [GOP Primary contender Pat] Bertroche made it clear that he wasn't joking when he suggested treating undocumented immigrants like pets.

From the Cedar Rapids Gazette:

"I think we should catch 'em, we should document 'em, make sure we know where they are and where they are going," said Pat Bertroche, an Urbandale physician. "I actually support microchipping them. I can microchip my dog so I can find it. Why can't I microchip an illegal?

I don't know! Why can't you? Why can't you train your Pomeranian to pick seasonal fruits and vegetables, and staff Mitt Romney's Sanctuary Mansions?

Bertroche went on, "That's not a popular thing to say, but it's a lot cheaper than building a fence they can tunnel under." Oh, sure. Catching and chipping hundreds of thousands of people sounds unbelievably cost-effective, and not at all that sort of thing that a big, intrusive goverment would do.
