"We have to give their counsel the information about their apprehension, and that includes where they are apprehended, whether a Minuteman volunteer spotted them or a citizen."Uh...I believe that is the same. The Minutemen are citizen volunteers.
Many times, we were told not to go out to Minuteman calls.Well, there you have it. Can't have the citizens helping in this endeavor. This is sickening.
"Now we know why it seemed like Mexican officials knew where we were all the time," said Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps. "It's unbelievable that our own government agency is sending intelligence to another country. They are sending intelligence to a nation where corruption runs rampant, and that could be getting into the hands of criminal cartels.Simcox is spot on with these comments. Like I said, it is sickening and clear that elements of our own government do not want this problem resolved or assisted by American citizens who are patriotic and trying to help. Begins to make one wonder just exactly what it is that they are afraid of.
"They just basically endangered the lives of American people."
Your comments are spot on.
I'm furious and don't know an effective place to put my anger.
My immigrant ancestors followed the rules to the detriment of many who did not make it out of Europe before the Holoucaust. Seems that was the wrong approach. Visit Mexico, take a walk north.
Re your #51 -
I wonder how long it's going to be before the Mexican Military or some drug cartel (how do we tell the difference?) sends a covert hit team to a border point IDd to them by their loyal allys in our own corrupt government where the MM are set up, and massacres them just to "teach Gringo a lesson"?
If that happens, I suspect that gloves will come off and things might get equally dangerous for invaders, MM, and any Federal officials of either government who try to get in the way down there.
Then Bush WILL send the Military to the border - tasked to suppress recalcitrant AMERICANS who have the audacity to attempt to defend them!
Armed insurrection won't be far off if that happens, I opine, and the Old Tree of Liberty will get a good manuring.
What do you suppose THAT will do to W's "ratings", eh?
