If this was over lets say two cops in anytown USA and they shot like this I would say hang E'm. But that wasn't Anytown USA and those BP's are in an undeclared war zone of which our leaders in Washington DC have turned a blind eye to. It is the Mexican Smugglers against the US BP it is the Mexican Army as well as Mexican Police against our BP. Then besides that they face the often armed illegals with nothing to loose. Night after night day after day while our POTUS kisses up to the Mexican government BACKING the ones shooting at our BP's for his beloved new trade union.
What is worse the government thinks that their bad cutting a deal by pardoning a felon with 700 pounds of pot is a far less serious a crime as being shot in the butt? This man has had how many arrest by BP? The USAG's ofice is ready to give him sainthood.
How many BP's have been shot at and killed by Mexicans and what has been Mexico's response? What has been the Whitehouses demands? It's a war zone down there. Maybe not one declared by congress but these guys stand a far better chance of not coming home than most cops in the nation. Fire them? OK. But this is a move to bring down the morale of the BP as a whole. Make them second guess all moves. Be much more reluctant to be as aggressive as they need to be to do the job. I will no more second guess them under their circumstances than a U.S. service members actions in Iraq.
But the real giveaway our BP's were sold out? here it is. Unarmed National Guards on the border that the BP as well must protect. Thank you for absolutely nothing GW Bush. Bush has helped create the very conditions that place our BP's lives in danger to start with. In light of his gross mis-management concerning our borders yes he owes them a pardon and the rest of the BP and the NG's he sent there unarmed an apology as well.
When these men were tried, the only evidence allowed in, pertained to their guilt or innocence.
Stripping everything else out, they are guilty. There are no mitigating circumstances, they are guilty. Any other argument is just like what the Libs do. Was Clinton guilty? They said it was just about sex, remember? Is Sandy Burger guilty? Libs said he just used 'poor judgment', remember? The Rich pardon in exchange for money for Clinton's library? When does it end? If we start excusing people based on mitigating circumstances, we are no better than our enemies on the left.
GREAT comment! I agree with you.
