Mexican thugs and drug smugglers intent on crossing the U.S. border illegally, have now begun to set fire to forests and fields along the border to distract U.S. Border Patrol Agents to make their crossing easier.
These criminal invaders are also throwing Molotov cocktails at agents’ vehicles as well as even setting fire to their observation posts. It is only a matter of time before these terrorist attacks result in the deaths of Border Patrol Agents and American civilians alike.
One night early last month in Arizona, Border Patrol Agents chased five illegals back across the Mexican border. Once on the other side, the five began pegging the agents and their vehicles with rocks. The agents moved back and continued to observe, then a Molotov cocktail was hurled by the would-be invaders. It hit the ground and missed the Border Patrol vehicles. The agents the contacted the Mexican military for assistance. Of course, that help never came.
About an hour later, an agent noticed a fire burning in a nearby wheat field. The San Luis Fire Department responded and fortunately the only property damaged in the extremely dry area was the field itself. a total of five fires were set that night by illegal aliens. The fires surrounded a Border patrol observation post and were an attempt to burn the agents out. No agents were injured in the multiple blazes and none of the illegals were apprehended.
The border area has become so dangerous due to Mexican drug smugglers and illegal aliens crossing into this country, that firefighters battling wildfires in the Coronado National Forest now must be accompanied by police officers. The U.S. Forest Service has reported numerous accounts of encounters with heavily armed drug dealers approaching firefighters.
These brazen actions displayed by Mexican invaders are only the latest tactics being used by our enemy in this border war. Make no mistake, we are at war. This nation is being invaded by criminals, violent gangs, drug smugglers, and those carrying dangerous diseases.
Unfortunately, we the people are facing two enemies. We are not only being attacked by a foreign invader, but those invaders are being aided and abetted by our elected officials.
We face a determined and dangerous enemy on both fronts, but we must press on and defeat both criminal groups. If we give up and accept amnesty and the human garbage now flooding this country, our children and grandchildren will face a future filled with unemployment, Third World diseases, and violence once thought unimaginable in this country.
No amnesty! Not ever!
Our government wouldn’t have the guts!
What about the apples!!! Who’ll pick the apples?
Our laws need to be applied NOW!!!!
Your #23 is a keeper!!!!
Come on, they’re just setting fire to forests Americans aren’t willing to burn down...
If Banks "couldn't make a profit" unless they counterfeited money, would congress pass a bill to help them?
Maybe Kennedy could propose a bill -- banks can counterfeit, but after 10 years they have to pay 5% back?
I got a better one I’ll quit paying income tax and five years from now I’ll give the IRS $5000 and call it even.
Just say NO to Illegal Alien Amnesty!! Keep calling!! It’s NOT OVER!!

“I got a better one I’ll quit paying income tax and five years from now I’ll give the IRS $5000 and call it even.”
There ya go. Great idea.
Dig a moat. Fill it with alligators and sharks that way it would make their entry into the promised land more challenging.
Sort of a Reality Show. It could be filmed and watched every night at 8:00 PM during ABC's family hour.
....*crickets*....
Mr. President is under the illusion that by giving the Illegals a path to citizenship it will greatly eliminate their need to sneak into our country.
Mr. President is delusional..

I’ve suspected that the drug runners are a bigger issue with this issue before, but I got called a nut job - but more and more it seems like the drug lords own the borders.
People wonder why Bush won’t close the borders, plave the military along them, and build the wall...it’s because I suspect it will trigger an all out war by the drug runners, it would be revealed how deep the drug lords have taken over the Mexican government and military when Mexican forces fight alongside drug runners, and the political pressure is brought to bear on Washington when the drug money bribes dry up (or is threatened).
Oh, and imagine if the drug runners and drug lords tell their people here in the country, along with the M13 and other assorted gangs, to start causing trouble in the inner cities to deflect from the warfare along the border.
I’m not saying it’s so, but the drug angle is the 8000000 lb white elephant in the room. I seriously wonder how much it influences Washington’s decisions in these matters. Billions of dollars are flowing across the Southern border into the hands of the drug lords, that money has to go somewhere, they’re not just stuffing them into coffee cans and burying them in the backyard. The drugs flow, no matter what, and their attacks along the border are ignored and our agents threatened with life sentences if they pursue or shoot back.
Maybe I’m crazy, but I think there’s more to this than we know.
I have no doubt that's what finances the large mansions in Florida and elsewhere. Further, I have no doubt that drug money flows into the campaign coffers of our elite political class.
That being said, there must be a mechanism for dumping about 75% of that elite political class who have been seriously compromised and stained by the drug largesse.
That being said, and everyone here knows this, these borders MUST be sealed (like a Gore lockbox), a moratorium on ALL immigration and ALL illegals deported ASAP.
The only way this will happen is if we get a strong leader who isn't afraid to move boldly. He'll have 75% of the America people behind him. The other 25% can join the deportation queue if they wish.
We live in sad times...
