Naco Border Patrol agents pinned down by automatic weapon fire
BORDER PATROL Local 2544 ^ | 2-18-04

Posted on 02/18/2004 10:25:09 PM PST by TERMINATTOR

Naco Border Patrol agents were pinned down by automatic weapon fire from cowardly assailants in Mexico on Tuesday, February 18th. The agents, who were pinned down for 5 to 7 minutes, were not injured and were unable to return fire. The shooting took place in broad daylight and the shooters knew exactly who they were shooting at. After the assailants left the area, they fired on other Border Patrol agents nearby. Hundreds of shell casings were reportedly scattered about area after the shootings. More to follow.

Those pictures should be followed by Jackelope Breeder's current pictures of the devastation that is caused by illegal aliens in Arizona.

Mr. Bush doesn't realize, or must not care what Mexico is bringing into our country. We care, but no one will listen.

Like this one???

Very much so. That's a Barrett turnbolt, I'll warrant; I was thinking of the M1982A -- for followup shots on Bad Boy's perky little pistolero pals who think they're so very malo.

RE: #4 "Well, blowing up the USS Cole was an act of war. Nothing happened except they sent in a domestic law enforcement agency, I think."

Yes there was an investigation. Picking the first googled mainstream source here is Time magazine's recounting of some of the events in a related 2002 story, "The FBI Puts Down Stakes in Yemen," Mar. 02, 2002

"[US Ambassador Barbara Bodine] and FBI on-the-ground supervisor John O'Neill clashed so heatedly whenever O'Neill wanted Bodine to press Saleh for help that Bodine refused to allow O'Neill to return to Yemen after he left the country around December 2000. O'Neill retired from the FBI in the summer of 2001 to take a job as security chief of the World Trade Center complex; he died on September 11 as he was trying to lead his staff to safety. But even with O'Neill out of the picture, relations between Bodine and the FBI agents still stationed in Yemen did not improve."

This is just a hint at the trouble the Clinton State Department caused the investigation of the Cole bombing. An investigation BTW some believe would have led to the plans for 9/11/01.

An aside, just to illustrate once again the sick feeeeeeeeeeelings of the left's "mind" they routinely claim that O'Neill left the FBI on account of the Bush Administration. Fact is O'Neill tried for years to alert the Clinton adminstration to the threats.

http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,214062,00.html

BTW again, to illustrate how sick some of the minds in the Bush adminstration are Ms Bodine almost got a key assignement in post war Iraq!

RE: #51, "When will the American leadership realize that Mexico is not our friend? The average American citizen knows this; why not our leaders?"

The American leadership, our "movers and shakers," and the corrupt government of Mexico know. But there's $$$$$$$$ in them thar' immigrants.

FINALLY the mainstream is starting to publish "the way it is" as these two recent articles illustrate.

"It's the old consulate, times 3," by Oscar Avila, Chicago Tribune staff reporter, February 18, 2004

Writing about the importance of the corrupt (my word) government of Mexico's refurbished consulate in Chicago, Mr Avila says,

"Mexico relies on these immigrants for cash infusions to their homeland that pay for public-works projects and for-profit ventures. Likewise, the Mexican government hopes the 700,000 Mexican immigrants living in the Chicago consulate's three-state jurisdiction become a political force in the United States." [end excerpt]

These are the "hometown associations (HTA)" made famous by the likes of pre-W.W.II pro-Nazi Germans living in the U.S. There are hundreds of Mexican HTAs in the U.S.

"Bush Bill Would Aid Mexico's Meddling in U.S.," by Mark Krikorian (executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies), published on Newsday.com February 18, 2004 states

[I]n the 1990s, Mexico embarked on a campaign of extending its political authority into the United States - not just over Mexican immigrants, but also naturalized and native-born Americans of Mexican ancestry. There are 10 million Mexican-born people in this country (including 5 million illegals) plus more than 10 million additional Americans of Mexican descent.

Now, this is not the fantasy of reconquista - retaking the Southwest, lost in the 1846-'48 Mexican War. Instead, it is an attempt to set up a special status for people of Mexican origin, like the status Europeans enjoyed in China in the 19th century.

There's nothing secret about this effort. President Vicente Fox once referred to himself as president of all 118 million Mexicans - the 100 million in Mexico and the (then-)18 million in the United States, the majority of whom are U.S. citizens. And this is a long-term proposition for them: In June 2001, Juan Hernandez, former head of Fox's cabinet-level office for relations with Mexicans abroad, said on ABC's "Nightline," "I want the third generation, the seventh generation, I want them all to think, 'Mexico first.'" [end excerpt]

Mr. Krikorian goes on to explain the corrupt (my word) government of Mexico's plans for its "nation without borders" or Mexican diaspora.

These scum could come across the border and slit the throats of every citizen from Brownsville to Ft. Worth and D.C. would turn a blind eye.

Nothing is going to interfere with their plans to melt the USofA into a mere member state of the unified western hemisphere, under international law, and under an appointed not elected board of tyrants.

Apparently, it doesn't matter which Party is in office, either. From 10/01/2000, DEMS/GORE PLAN GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN TO FORCE NATURALIZING 2 MILLION ILLEGALS, posted by RonC.

Bill Clinton, along with one-third of the Democrats in Congress, who, for the most part, are registered or closet socialists/communists, are blackmailing the Republicans and the American people to further destroy the Constitution of the United States of America!

Nita Nuprez wrote a classic comment with regard to Orrin Hatch. Will see if I can lift it over here.

No it doesn't matter who is in office regarding our survival as a Constitutional Republic. Some of us have come to understand that there are no answers in the ballot box.

Yes ---- I'm not sure what family values Bush was talking about --- but the drug lord families are definitely living on both sides of the US --- they're taking over large portions of this country. You can go to Mexico City or any other Mexican City and see thousands of street children --- that will soon be another family value of that country brought over here.

In regard to your post #87, my friends who either live in or who have moved out of California can validate your comments. My friends are -- or were -- lifelong residents of California -- most with families who had been there for generations. And they are full of anger and despair over what has happened to their beloved state.

Plenty of us out here know you are not just telling "stories."

Don't gov't officials have ANY pride?

I liken these goings on to the neighborhood bullies constantly beating up my kids and continually stealing their lunch and lunch money. What parent wouldn't take swift and decisive action?

I guess an unwritten prerequisite to running for office is to be a spineless wimp.

Fences aren't much of a deterrent.

This is what is needed.

And lots of them.

I guess my point was to leave untraceable slugs. That could also be a .220 Swift, a 300ultramag etc. They would I think at best leave the false trail of appearing to be standard .223 or .30 slugs, what little bits were recovered, that is.
