Perhaps it's time to start replacing these copters with defunct Army Cobras.

A Cobra would have crashed just the same.

"Chopper downed by rock repaired (ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS DOWNED IT WITH ROCKS)" What's the news here? His first act on U.S. soil is a criminal act that will cost our government money and resources, just like every other illegal alien.

Perhaps. But it would have been armed, and could have "taken care of" the illegals before the damage was done.

Poor illegals. They don't even have enough money to buy an RPG.
Some liberal group will probably start supplying them with weapons so that they can defend themselves while crossing.

This incident continues a trend of violence that has occurred along the border in this area. Recently there have been shootings, attempts to ram law enforcement officers with vehicles and other rock-throwing incidents."It's a trend we're hoping ends soon but at this point seems to be ongoing," Gramley said.
Hoping it ends? How about wishing real hard?

I see...you're a fan of the Waco school of law enforcement.

This is the second to last paragraph in the article.

Rocks this week, what will it be next week? Is it not time for a wall? An Iraeli style wall to keep them all out.
George are you listening, GOP are you listening, Chertoff are you listening?

Not at all. There's a difference between attacking American citizens on their own property, and defending one's self against illegal aliens who are attempting to kill you.

In the original First Blood movie, Rambo threw a rock at a helicopter and almost made it crashed. Anyway, he did make the guy shooting at him fall out of the helicopter and land on some rocks.

They're just here to assault the federal LEOs that Americans won't assault.

Somehow the headline tells the whole failed Jimmy Carter like border enforcement story.
