U.S. Border Patrol has been accused of causing the deaths of hundreds of migrants a year by destroying food and water supplies left for them in the brutal Arizona desert by humanitarian group.
On Wednesday, two humanitarian groups released a report, detailing how they've distributed more than 31,000 gallons of water along dangerous migrant paths in the Arizona desert between 2012 and 2015.
In that time frame, they say volunteers have found these stashes of food and water destroyed 415 times - or about two times a week on average.

Comment: Even though the timeframe is 2012 to 2015, the media will lay the blame for this on Trump. No mention of Obama in the article but it does close by saying that "In addition to working to fulfill his campaign promise to build a new Mexican border wall, President Trump is also pushing to hire 5,000 more Border Patrol agents."
Good.
Who needs a wall when we have the Border Patrol?
Good, we should be arresting those aiding and abetting illegal aliens.
Why not?
Good. I hope they don’t get caught.
LOL..."Demand" all you want. I "Demand" the pony I wanted as a kid, too.
OBAMA ADMINISTRAION RESPONSIBLE FOR HUNDREDS OF POOR INNOCENT MEXICANS DYING IN DESERT AREAS!!!!
That is what they should be doing, take it and give to the local homeless shelter.
Good.
Now arrest the criminal conspirators who left them there.
I DEMAND that Hillary turn herself in as a criminal and that Obama move to a little island somewhere and never be heard from again. Like my “demands” have any power to make either of those things happen.
If you leave food and water out, it’s no longer yours to say what should be done with it. In fact, you might be charged with polluting the environment.
No one else would even dream of disturbing this wonderful caches not even the drug cartels, Mexican gang’s coyotes, or wild animals. Sacrosanct they are. Obviously only evil Border Patrol types could possibility do this terrible thing - even though no one has any proof of anything other than accusations, which the more serious they are, the more true they must be, right?
If I was there, Id’ spit and piss on these water bottles.
I get the sarcasm, but the wall is needed.
PLUS regular aerial/satellite surveillance, don’t think BP does all that, so the Air Force or the NSA might need to “contribute some services” to the border effort.
With all those in place - a proper wall, BP on the ground, and regular surveillance - no illegal aliens are getting in, and animals can still move freely back and forth.
Win-win
I fail to see the problem, here. Perhaps the Border Patrol needs to interdict the invasion routes more often?
You never, ever hear a conservative say something like “I DEMAND.” We expect the election process to work and our solons do what they were elected to do. If they don’t do it, we vote them out...or not. We may write letters and phone them, but we never DEMAND they do something.
“DEMAND” is the hallmark of a very small infantile leftist mind.
I like that — we DEMAND Hillary turn herself in and never hear from Obastard again! Nice. Better than DEMANDING my pony, by far.
Rumor holds that during the Vietnam War, the CIA had a program of salting VC ammunition caches with special rifle cartridges where the propellant had been replaced with some high explosive.
Jus’ sayin’ ...
If we send all the population of San Francisco to the US/Mexisco Border, we could have a 100 foot tall wall of feces in no time flat! It dries in the hot sun harder than concrete.
I call it winning.
