Only four days to delirium?
Wimp.
Who are these "border vigilantes" being referenced in this article?
Don't you get tired of wusses who proclaim a hunger strike and then consume calories. A "real" protester would forgo all food and water until the other side gives in or until death, whichever comes first.
Trying to figure out how she failed to connect these two thoughts:
"And I figured the government can't get involved if it's my own property," she said."
and
"How can the government in 2005 allow this, let people take the law into their own hands?"
The minutemen are on private property at the owner's request and other places where they can legally be. But she wants the government to stop them.
has the world been turned inside out or is it just my imagination?
Que sera sera...her life isn't anyone else's responsibility but her own. If she decides to starve herself, let her.
On the fourth night of her front yard hunger strike, Diana Ponce lay delirious under the carport, fighting off the chill under a fuzzy blanket emblazoned with the Mexican flag.
Burn that flag-emblazoned blanket. That ought to help keep you warm.
Neighbors sat clustered around her on white plastic lawn chairs. Children smacked at a yellow volleyball in the street. Toddlers tricycled past fence-strung banners that read "Tenemos Que Unirnos" -- We have to unite.
Viva La Raza!!
all of them with inalienable rights.
I suppose this woman thinks that only little Mexican-American children have inalienable rights.
But the Minutemen do not have the right to bear arms, to free speech, and to petition their government for redress of their grievences.
But the good news is that given her hunger strike, taxpayers are probably saving a little on food stamps.
Where are the DUmmies? they could save her, they like to throw food.
What a waste of resources.
A ping for the delusional woman staging a hunger strike to protest the armed vigilante MMPs.
Looking at pictures of this woman, going on a hunger strike for a few weeks might do her some good. If you know what I mean.
I think her horoscope today says she should go visit a Dr with a couch (bilingual of course)
Or, she should have watched Dr Phil on TV.
So many nutcases, so little time.
"She refused not only food, but also water for the first two days of her fast, which ends Thursday."
Someone should tie a granny knot in her feeding tube...
Presumably she's adult onset diabetes, not Type 1 (juvenile, the more serious version that requires shots...which, incidentally, is what I have), so her problem is probably caused by obesity. Hence, I imagine she could stand to go on a hunger strike without causing too much trouble--her doctors might even approve of the measure.
Perhaps she'll lose a ton of weight and market this as a new diet? Call it the "Border Protest Diet."
Hey Ponce, if you're not going to eat that burrito, may I have it?
Let her starve herself to death. One less stupid person in the world to deal with.
These are not vigilantes as this woman and the MSM are want to call American citizens doing their duties as citizens…they are doing just what they should be doing when their government does not do the job of protecting the Homeland and they are doing it very well in spite of the ACLU appearing along with all the reporters, trying to tweak many members into confrontations.
