How long will it be before people start taking matters into their own hands? And what will the result of that be?
In Aurora, Colorado, armed criminal gangs are taking over apartment buildings. The gangs are charging rent on the apartments they have seized; they are selling drugs and, according to accounts from displaced residences, engaged in sex trafficking. And the local authorities seem unable, or unwilling, to do anything about it.
Potential gang activity was caught on surveillance camera in a Colorado apartment building after what one former resident calls "no accountability" kept law enforcement from assisting.
The video shows many men armed with handguns, and one with a scoped rifle, bursting through the door of the apartment complex for unknown reasons.The group appears to be Tren de Aragua, or TdA, a transnational gang based out of Venezuela. The gang, with reportedly 5,000 members, has a motto of "real until death," or "real hasta la muerte."
Yes, there is video:

Independent journalist Andy Ngo is also documenting these events.

The local authorities know what is going on. There is a video. The faces of the perps are visible in some of the imagery. The locations of the perpetrators are known. Their activities have been caught on video. There are ample local witnesses, some of whom have been driven from their homes. What are they waiting for?
Aurora City Councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky said in an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital that "without a doubt that there is sex trafficking now going on" in relationship to TdA's activities in the city.
"This is organized. They patrol the property with guns visibly, like they're not trying to hide them. There's no repercussion. These are ghosts," said one resident who spoke with Fox News Digital on the condition of anonymity.The gang has also been seen dealing drugs in the same apartment building, according to this resident.
So why has nothing been done? Can the City of Aurora not even fulfill the minimal requirements of government to protect the liberty and property of the citizens? Apparently not.

Here's what the Aurora Police Department had to say about the matter:

Here's the jaw-dropper from the Aurora PD:
Based on our initial investigative work, we believe reports of TdA influence in Aurora are isolated.
Isolated? Who the hell cares if it's isolated? It's happening, now. We know what's happening and where it's happening. People are literally being driven from their homes by armed gangs of illegal immigrants. This is intolerable. As I asked above: What happens when the regular run of citizenry decides they've waited long enough for the authorities to do something? These cases aren't "isolated" to the people who are being driven from their homes by gang activity. How much must they tolerate?
These criminals are in the country illegally. Find them. Charge them. Deport them.
Meanwhile, our borders remain a sieve, and Kamala Harris is attempting to channel her inner Donald Trump by suddenly being in favor of a border wall.

Liberal and progressive pols, pundits, and talking heads are fond of blasting former President Trump for pointing out that there are large numbers of criminals crossing the border unimpeded, along with the ones who are supposedly "seeking a better life" and cutting the immigration line by crossing illegally. And why shouldn't they? They know they will not only be allowed in but receive taxpayer-funded benefits for coming in illegally.
As I've been saying for many months now, we have very little idea who is coming in, why they are here, where they are going, or what they intend to do when they get there. Now, today, in Aurora, Colorado, a town where I lived for thirty years, the town where my kids grew up, residents are paying the price for this reckless, feckless, ineffective border policy.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris own this open-border policy. In November, let's make them pay for it.
