Inland Valley Daily Bulletin Inaccurate

(05/09/2006)Statement Today’s report by the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, “U.S. tipping Mexico to Minuteman patrols,” is inaccurate. Border Patrol does not report activity by civilian, non-law enforcement groups to the Government of Mexico. During a detention of a legal or illegal immigrant that produces an allegation of improper treatment, Border Patrol reports the allegation and allows the appropriate consulate to interview the individual in custody.

This is consistent with the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations of 1963 that provides consular access to foreign nationals being detained by a foreign government. This is the same agreement that protects United States citizens when they travel to foreign countries.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Border Patrol continues to appreciate the efforts of civilians who contact law enforcement authorities regarding suspicious activity.

Ah yes, another '04 who has no clue about my posting history or my position regarding the borders.

You people are hilarious.

LOL...sorry, but here in north Texas there is a talk show host named David Gold, and he uses that expression all of the time... In fact, he is a freeper.

What's his screen name?

IT WAS A LIE Some people don't seem to think so, and their reasons are howlers, so to speak. The denial is simple and clear, but the reaction from some is "If it were a lie there would be a longer denial." Uh, yeah, write: "We don't do this" is a pretty clearcut denial to me. If it was a longer denial, the same people would be saying "Look at how they're trying to obfuscate the truth, if it's a lie, just SAY so." There's no distortion here: It's a simple "That's not true, period" statement.

"I did not have sex with that woman...Ms. Lewinski."

Well Slick, I suppose in one sense of the word you didn't. Then again, depending on what the meaning of is, is, you did. Looks like the Border Patrol has learned that lesson well.

Not playing victim...I just don't engage in name calling. To each his own, I guess.

You didn't actually read the article did you.

OK if you were not telling a lie..... Please post ONE, JUST ONE, positive comment you have ever made on this forum about this president and I will take it back and ask the moderator to pull it

[ilovew]

In other words, it doesn't matter what the Border Patrol says, you're not gonna believe them.

onyx..........note...........sign on November 04, equating this administration with the xlinton administration.

Another one, I'd say......

[Old_Mil]

Juan Hernandez, a former cabinet member for Vincente Fox, was on there [O'Reilly], and I guess he was flaunting his belief that the US Border Patrol agents are monitoring members of The Minuteman Project and reporting their whereabouts to the Mexican govt.

"Not playing victim...I just don't engage in name calling"

Unfortunately, it would seem you are in the minority here.

[Txsleuth]

Thank you.

[onyx]

For sure.
They have infiltrated FR.

We'll be here long after they're gone.

[MJY1288]

Just smartass remarks,

I'm so sorry if I offended you

"I did not have sex with that woman...Ms. Lewinski." Well Slick, I suppose in one sense of the word you didn't. Then again, depending on what the meaning of is, is, you did. Looks like the Border Patrol has learned that lesson well.

So because Bill Clinton lied, then the Border Patrol is lying.

Wow, that's amazing logic.

Sowing dissention on a CONSERVATIVE forum by placing in BOLD and LARGE FONT, the words of an EX-Mexican cabinet member.

Strike TWO, Old-Mil.

[onyx]

Well, GEE WHIZ, THAT makes it all true! /sarc

"Juan Hernandez, a former cabinet member for Vincente Fox"

Soooo, you believe former cabinet members of Vincente Fox are reliable sources of information. I guess you'd call him an ally in the fight for the "truth". What evidence did he provide to support that?
