Several (Anarchist) comrades have been arrested

Several comrades have been arrested at the sacred springs of A’al Vappia (Quitobaquito Springs) while protesting border construction on O’odham land.

While posing as local Indians, a group of a few dozen hard Left activists (armed with shields, and who knows what else) attempted to disrupt a DHS highway checkpoint around Organ Pipe national monument in Arizona today (12 Oct 20), and were met with tear gas, rubber bullets and arrests.

They say they were protesting to stop border wall construction on Indian Land at a "sacred" Spring - but it is not on the Reservation, it is National Park Service land.

Oh, and by the way, the new bollards just went up across that site this last week.

Try to keep up, you drug-addled Left Wingnuts.

Oh yeah, and Happy Columbus Day - or as you might know it, "Indigenous People's Day". No hard feelings about the beatdown?

My wishful thinking for the headline:

"Several (Anarchist) comrades have been arrested hanged."

This is a very high traffic area for illegals.

“Thanks for your long time reality posts about our Wall going up.”

Hey Dave, a new on is up today (360 miles complete): http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3893004/posts

A couple of main focus points for the resistance in Arizona (Quitobaquito Springs, associated with this thread’s protest, and the San Pedro River, an “environmentalist” cover for anti-wall activists) were overcome this last week.

The bollards now stand tall in both places, as the concrete cures in place.

More details from KOLD News 13 (https://www.kold.com/2020/10/12/protesters-arrested-border-patrol-checkpoint-sr-/ ):

"Several members of a protest group were arrested at the Border Patrol checkpoint on SR-85 in western Pima County on Monday, Oct. 12...

The Border Patrol released the following statement:

“On the morning of October 12th, protesters blocked traffic on Arizona State Route 85 in both directions near the Tucson Sector Border Patrol Immigration Checkpoint. The Arizona Department of Public Safety responded, and after providing the protesters ample warning to clear the roadway, 12 individuals were taken into custody. No injuries were reported. We fully support the right to voice concerns and express opinions lawfully and peacefully under the first amendment...

The group was protesting border wall construction and Border Patrol activities on O’odham land as part of an action day for Indigenous Peoples Day."

“This is a very high traffic area for illegals.”

Not for much longer.

Both sides (East and West) of the Tohono O’odham Nation (TON) Indian Reservation are getting long runs of new Trump-style Super “Wall System” - 30 foot bollards, high speed access roads, alarms, sensors (and in places, lights and fixed cameras).

TON is likely going to see increasing illegal traffic funneled through their Reservation, as the wall goes up.

The are getting increased surveillance through the Integrated Fixed Towers Program, and others, but it will just be the easiest area to physically pass.

So Organ Pipe is going to be much safer next year, and TON will likely be more dangerous.

Scott Adams, who was 1 of about 5 pundits who predicted Trump’s original victory soon after he declared in 2014 or 2015, says that by breaking down into different entitlements groups, like this one, Native Americans, or LGBT, or Asians, Antifa is cutting its own throat. Adams compares it to ISIS, which worked when it could hide, but as soon as it took territory, it could be bombed, so it signed its own death warrant by becoming like an established government or empire. So Antifa only works by being anonymous. As soon as it starts “diversifying” into Native American/Indigenous Antifa, or LGBT Antifa, or Asian Antifa, it loses its anonymity, and law enforcement can destroy it.

I’m always amazed at how everything is “sacred” unless it’s in the way of the new casino.

Sorry, it was 1 month ago.
It was said they were
“Locals” but Cars Not Trucks!?!
SoCal was on edge for more
Mayhem from Antifa then, I
Surmised it was a good spot
to pre stage. They were
Not local Tribes.

Yes Around Campo (California) is the other area that Leftist agitators fly the false flag of representing local indigenous tribes, to sabotage border wall construction.

They get a few radicals out of the tribe to push in front of the cameras, and a few more radical Indians from faraway tribes - the rest are the regular cadre of hard Leftists (Antifa, Occupy, BLM, communists), and whatever local Left Wing airhead groups they can coax to turn out, like enviro- hippie types.

There was another camp in Texas,pretending to represent a made up (not recognized by the Gov’t) Tribe. They broke camp, and moved on after several months, when the Wall came through their area, despite their attempts to delay it.

Some of those jokers may have found (or been assigned) a tent at the Arizona or California protestor camps. Which ever of those finishes first, will probably shift their hardcore professionals to the other.

I kind of viewed BLM as just such a special interest type of front group for the revolutionary Left.

They do seem to be ramping up their “Indigenous Rights” affiliates in recent months.

They have really stuck their necks way out from undercover, with all their active operations. Maybe a nice RICO case could be put together early in President Trump’s next term.
