Illegal immigration prompts volunteer patrols.

PALOMINAS, Ariz. -- Wearing a camouflage jacket that cloaks the semi-automatic handgun at his waist, Chris Simcox aims his binoculars less than a mile away toward the seven strands of barbed wire that divide this remote desert town from Mexico.

The St. Louis Post-Disgrace has been crying a river lately over the plight of the poor illegal aliens. Thought the folks frome Cochise Country may have come comments about the reporting from this leftist newspaper.

Ping.

"But we have people who have gone in to see their weaponry and have been frightened by what they saw there."

Poor babies. They're frightened by the weaponry they see.

Boo!

[Bahbah]

When no one else will help you, you have to help yourself.

"But we have people who have gone in to see their weaponry and have been frightened by what they saw there."

"Stop it, I'm getting misty eyed".

[Missouri]

I seen Chris Simcox on Hannity and Colms one night. I thought he presented himself well. A true patriot from what I can tell.

[HiJinx]

Full-Court Ping!

Chris Simcox was convicted of weapons violations - yesterday, I think - I'll go see if I can find a report of that.

He was foolish enough to cross into the Coronado National Monument with a firearm in his possession. He should have known better than to do that...why, the National Park Service just hates armed civilians, don't you know?

[TLI]

He is not recognized by any of the other vigilante groups.

Vigilante groups?

Carney said Ranch Rescue doesn't have great numbers. ``But we have people who have gone in to see their weaponry and have been frightened by what they saw there.''

Apparently they were not very "frightened" by the machineguns they must have seen being carried by the MEXICAN ARMY which guards the illegal border crossing operation on the south side of the border.

No sir, apparently that did not "frighten" them a bit.

Probation in gun incident for border-watch leader

ARIZONA DAILY STAR

The leader of a Tombstone-based border watch group was sentenced Friday in federal court to two years' probation for carrying a firearm into Coronado National Memorial and lying to a ranger about it.

Chris Simcox, 43, of Civil Homeland Defense and owner and publisher of the Tombstone Tumbleweed, is also prohibited from carrying a firearm during his probation and must pay a $1,000 fine after being convicted of two misdemeanor charges for the January 2003 incident in the national memorial south of Sierra Vista.

U.S. District Court Judge Nancy F. Fiora rejected a federal prosecutor's request, however, that Simcox be banned from participating in any border vigilante activities for five years.

In the January 2003 incident, a ranger asked Simcox three times if he was carrying a gun. He was then found to be carrying a .45-caliber pistol tucked in his waistband under his sweatshirt.

The fact that the illegals are scared of the weapons they see is proof that there should be even more weapons. Maybe they'll be scared enough to turn around and go home.

How many come in each month? I read somewhere it was around 10,000. We need military on the border, which would be in America's best interests, but obviously it's not in the best interests of politicians, including Mr. Bush.

[SAMWolf]

I think our entire Governemnet hates armed Citizens Subjects.

The Tucson morning paper and the Post-Dispatch are both owned by Pulitzer, which is responsible for their left-wing slant. Also, they pay the Tucson staff much less than the Post-Dispatch staff are paid, causing much bitterness among the put-upon Tucson writers and editors.

I guess Chris is doing something right if the Feds have such a hard on for him.

Stay safe out there!

Here's the background synopsis of the new novel I'm writing, it fits perfectly into the context of this thread. "Domestic Enemies" takes place five years after the end of "Enemies Foreign and Domestic," or notionally about 2014. The action happens between Oklahoma and Southern California, but much of it occurs in New Mexico. The state government of New Mexico has been taken over by nominally Democrat Party Hispanic radicals of the MeCha and La Raza variety, in wildly rigged “touch screen” elections. The NM electoral vote helps to put the ‘rat President over the top, so as you can imagine, no election fraud investigation is forthcoming.

One of the new radical state government’s top agenda items is “land reform.” Large mainly Anglo-owned properties will be confiscated on the pretext that their original deeds and titles are invalid, under the Treaty of Guadeloupe Hidalgo, dating from the 1840s. In order to enforce this “land reform” the governor creates a new force, the “Milicia de Nuevo Mexico,” and arms them with surplus M-16A1 rifles from the state guard armories. (The actual NM National Guard is all deployed to the war in East Slambamistan.) The stage is set for a bloody showdown between mainly Anglo ranchers who refuse to leave their ancestral lands, and the Milicia de Nuevo Mexico.

The state government passes “Solo Espanol” laws, in reaction after some other US states pass English-only laws. Police and other government employees who cannot pass difficult oral and written Spanish proficiency tests are fired. Milicia-manned checkpoints are pervasive, searching the cars of Anglos for illegal firearms. The checkpoints are a form of ethnic harassment, part of the new government’s unspoken plan for the ethnic cleansing of “Nuevo Mexico.” (The Indian tribes were bought off as part of the rigged state elections.)

"Voluntarios" from Mexico and Central and South America (as well as left-wing radical gringos of the DU type) are coming to NM for land and a chance to poke a sharp stick in Uncle Sam’s eye. Sort of a Barcelona 1935 atmosphere. Reds, "blacks" (anarchists) and lunatics of all stripes.

Armed volunteers of the Jim Bowie and Davy Crockett stripe are also heading to Nuevo Mexico to support the threatened ranchers; some of these "right wing militia" patriot types will be incorporated into the plot. But I'm not going to make it totally black and white, i.e., "Anglos good, Hispanics bad." I'm going to strive to include many of motives, pure and base, on both sides.

One major character will be a demoralized and disgusted FBI agent in Albuquerque. He's getting all of this incredible information on Chinese subversion ops money and communist infiltrators from Peru to Cuba, but Washington FBI HQ does NOT want to hear about it. DC is in full denial mode. As long as the govt of NM mouths the right USA words, DC will ignore the revolution going on in NM at the street and ranch level.

Plus, to make it worse, HQ keeps sending nonsensical orders for the FBI agents in Albuquerque to investigate who else but....the armed right wing ranchers and others, who are resisting the NM govt’s "land reform" (confiscation) efforts! Don't mind the Chinese and other communist agents; go after the right wing "domestic terrorists" who are violating the strict federal gun prohibition laws and other new federal laws! The frustrated FBI agent lives in this insane PC world, where his DC masters are totally out of touch with reality. (Sort of like today.)

Vigilante activities? Is what the federal prosecutor's REALLY said? Or has that been "enhanced" by the "author" of the article? Hard to tell, the AZS does not indicate who wrote this....

Hard to tell, we'd need someone to get a copy of the court order to see what the judge actually said.

My coworkers and I tend to refer to that newspaper as the AZ Daily Red Star.

[NewRomeTacitus]

Great outline but I hope you don't end up being an inadvertant prophet when all is said and done. First because it would mean a downward spiral requiring citizens to get reaquainted with the concept of defending their freedoms (a good thing IMHO) and secondly the WOGs can't tolerate prophetic competition for their boy Mad Mo.

"Sort of a Barcelona 1935 atmosphere. Reds, "blacks" (anarchists) and lunatics of all stripes."

They're called "Chomskeys", "Gnoams" for short.

No sir, apparently that did not "frighten" them a bit.

Thats because he is on the same side of the Mexican Army. He wants to see this country go down.

[Missouri]

We do need to be more proactive and start physically removing the illegals out of our country otherwise the job becomes more difficult as more invaders come across the border. Its up to the executive branch of government to enforce the law.

President Bush, where are you ???
