TUCSON, AZ - Three people have been arrested in connection with last months deadly double homicide in Arivaca that left a nine-year-old and her father dead. One of the people arrested for the homicide is the National Executive Director of the Minuteman American Defense group (M.A.D.), a group known for patrolling the border, and is dedicated to "Defending America's Borders" according to their website - http://minutemenamericandefense.org/

Jason Eugene Bush, 38, Shawna Forde, 42 and Albert Robert Gaxiola, 43, were all taken into custody and charged in connection with the murders of 29-year-old Raul Flores and 8-year-old Brisenia Flores. Both were killed during an alleged home invasion.

According to authorities, Bush, Forde, and Gaxiola broke into the home of the Flores family just after midnight on May 30th. At the time, the mother, father and daughter were home. The invaders reportedly shot the three members of the Flores family, killing the father, Raul, and the daughter, Brisenia. The invaders then left the scene.

And so it begins.

Let’s see what other extenuating circumstances, if any, there are.

“....Dupnik says, “The husband who was murdered has a history in being involved in narcotics and there was an anticipation that there would be a considerable amount of cash at this location, as well as the possiblity of drugs.”...”

I don’t care who a person thinks they are. Kicking in doors and shooting people is not right.

I suspect a very longstanding personal feud having nothing to do with the The Minutemen.

Dig deep and you will find this

"Forde's organization is not directly connected to the more commonly known minutemen organization, Minutemen Civil Defense Corps or the Minutemen project run by Chris Simcox and James Gilchrist"

Hmm...

Who would have thought something like that could happen ?

I’m glad-for the sake of the original Minutemen organization-these folks were not really associated with them.

You beat me to it. Makes the title a bit misleading, doesn’t it?

And, buried at the bottom of the article:

Forde's organization is not directly connected to the more commonly known minutemen organization, Minutemen Civil Defense Corps or the Minutemen project run by Chris Simcox and James Gilchrist.

At the bottom of the article where most (even freepers) won't see it:

Forde's organization is not directly connected to the more commonly known minutemen organization, Minutemen Civil Defense Corps or the Minutemen project run by Chris Simcox and James Gilchrist.

Gee, wonder why they are trying to conflate these nutjobs with the Minutemen? /SARC

Real Minutemen

This is another example of the growing narrative of rising “Right Wing” violence. They are really pushing the idea that all conservative values stem from fear and hate. Ladies and gentleman, they are winning, so far.

Extremely misleading. Without a doubt intentionally.

The woman that apparently orchestrated this, Forde, has been booted out of the actual (original) Minutemen. She started her own group a few years back, and has a history of being an idiot.

My guess is that they were looking to a) rob the family, and; b) make it look like violence between rival gangs of illegals.
They deserve whatever the law throws at them.

The larger issue is that this will be used by the left as a catalyst to go after ALL Minuteman-esque groups and in the process push the government boot even further down on the necks of American citizens. Is it the one last step before a race war on our border? I don’t think so, but it is a step in that direction.

You mean the MSM created a thoroughly misleading story title in order to discredit a conservative organization? Why, the mind just boggles!

Are the o-media allowed to commit outright libel/slander now?
