The veiled language hides a hate-mongering, xenophobic intention to add to the boiling border political climate, said García, co-director of the Human Rights Coalition in Tucson, Ariz.

Yeah, and then we have idiots on FR who call for violence against the illegals and play right into this crapweasel's hands.

You wanna make a difference? Realize that the message needs to be political. Emulate Glen Spencer, whom I had my initial doubts about but who I now support fully. He demonstrated that unmanned drones could be used for border security - and, lo and behold, the new bill about driver's licenses (H.R. 418) provides to further research and deploy that method.

Recognize the battle is not on the border, but in Washington. And make sure your tactics are directed there.

I take that back - I went to find that section of 418, and it addresses ground sensors but does not include unmanned aerial survelliance. I misread it.

However, that does not change the fact that when you post calls for violence against illegal border crossers, you play right into the hands of the La Raza types. Don't do it. The only way to win this battle is to get the GOP serious about border security. And you will not accomplish that by giving sound bytes to the other side.

. . . and when both political parties that control Washington are openly hostile to a vocal majority of the country on an issue of national security, what then? I understand the desire to retain civility, but when the government refuses to protect its citizens they have a right to protect themselves.
