AMERICAN BORDER PATROL A NEW INIATIVE FOR HOMELAND SECURITY
A NATION WITHOUT A BORDER IS NOT A NATION
President Reagan said, "A nation without a border is not a nation." Should America continue as an independent, sovereign nation? Every poll answers with a resounding YES! Americans want their border protected and, if necessary, they want the military to help. President Eisenhower stopped illegal immigration by enforcing our laws. President Bush could do the same thing.
WHY CAN¹T WE STOP THE INVASION? We are the most powerful nation on earth. Yet, we have been unable to stop millions of illegal aliens from crossing our borders. Why? Do we have enough Border Patrol Agents? If not, how many do we need? Don¹t we have the technology to detect people coming into the United States across barren land? If we do, why don¹t we use it? Should we build a fence like the Israelis are doing? How can they do it so fast?
AMERICAN BORDER PATROL TO THE RESCUE I have joined with Former Chief U.S. Border Patrol Agent Bill King and former Chief of the Tucson Sector of the Border Patrol, Ron Sanders, to form American Border Patrol. American Border Patrol will report from the border on a full-time basis. American Border Patrol (ABP) is an Arizona corporation. We have filed for IRS 501 c (3), tax-exempt, non-profit status.
ABP HEADQUARTERS ABP will be headquartered on a ranch on the Mexican border in southern Arizona (location restricted to insiders only). The ranch will house our information center, satellite Internet system, radio transmitters and receivers and the Web operations and production center. I am moving to the ranch to run operations, full-time. Once we are up and running, we will welcome selected, screened visitors to see, first-hand, the battle for America¹s borders.
"LIGHT UP THE BORDER" In the 1980s, Muriel Watson and other brave Americans lined up automobiles south of San Diego and used their headlights to "light up the border." They showed hundreds of illegal aliens running across open fields into the United States. The media was forced to pay attention. No illegal aliens now cross where Muriel Watson¹s automobiles were lined up. A twelve-mile-wide border barrier system stops them, placed there by a shamed government.
"LIGHTING UP THE BORDER" AGAIN It is time to "light up the border" again. It is time to show the American people that our nation is being invaded. This time, instead of headlights, we will use the Internet. Just as we do with americanpatrol.com (the most popular immigration reform Web site), we will show illegals flooding into the United States, first- hand, and, if possible, live. We will show what the Border Patrol is doing to stop this invasion, and why they fail. We will show what America could do to stop the invasion.
WORKING WITH RANCHERS As has American Patrol for years, ABP will work with ranchers, such as Roger Barnett of Douglas, Arizona (featured in Time Magazine), to focus on how, when and where illegal aliens are crossing our border. We will use video cameras and infrared technology to show, on a regular basis, how illegal aliens are violating our sovereignty. (What would Americans think of a Webcam mounted on popular invasion routes? How many would log on to try to catch aliens invading their nation? Plenty.)
BORDER PATROL TACTICS Under the direction of Bill King, Ron Sanders, and other former Border Patrol officials, we will explain to the American people, on a blow-by-blow basis, how the battle for our borders is going. We will tell them why illegal aliens are dying in the desert and what we can do to stop it. We will tell them why illegal aliens continue to cross the border, even after they have been arrested up to fifteen times. We will tell the American people how terrorists can cross our borders undetected and undeterred. And, if they want to get personally involved, we will show Americans how to do it.
SUPPORTING THE BORDER PATROL ABP will support the Border Patrol. Our network of concerned citizens along the border will represent an important source of reports, processed through ABP for confirmation. We will be in constant contact with agents working the line and they will know how much America is behind them.
NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT
For many reasons, some of which cannot be made public now, I can think of no more important task than immediately securing our borders. We are working to launch American Border Patrol on September 1. With your help, we can do it. Glenn Spencer
P.S. Until ABP receives approval of its non-profit status, American Patrol will handle its banking. We may be able to give donors tax credits at a later date, but nothing is guaranteed. G.S. #
He also said, "Give us your tired..."
Then he signed a big fat amnesty.
Probably a poor choice of terms by the author in using "homeland security."
I don't support the gov't. version either. In fact, I don't even like the sound of "homeland security." National security was/is appropriate, I think. (‡>]
Point: the US Border Patrol had their rifles taken away, they now carry only pistols, in order to deter them from resisting attack. Their standing ROE are to run away from attackers.
Point: the US Border Patrol had their tracking dogs taken away, they were TOO EFFECTIVE. The pro-invasion lobby complained about "mean dogs", the dogs, trained for tracking in rural brush countyr, are now idle.
Bush would rather risk terrorist infiltration than upset the pro-invasion lobby. Hell, Bush is pro-invasion.
Seems that way, doesn't it? Bush's inaction or should I say negligent in protecting our borders from this massive invasion is so bewildering, especially given 9/11, that the only logical conclusion is that Bush is in fact "pro-invasion". Nothing else explains it.
It's already on his hands. Every time some municipality decides to accept ID cards issued by a corrupt foreign government without a word from Washington the problem is multiplied. Every time some tinhorn ethnic pimp like Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca decide that they're not going to cooperate with the INS or enforce all laws with nary a peep out of D.C., the problem becomes even worse.
I saw that no-good Baca a couple of weeks ago in a press conference with Mel Gibson. That low-life Baca had the audacity to be handing out a check to the widow of a local deputy who was executed by a Mexican illegal who had been deported 3 times (and the suspect is still at large, probably in Mexico where we won't be able to get at him). If Baca and these clowns who choose to enforce only the laws they want to enforce would actually detain the illegals they encounter America would be a lot safer. Yet they continue to get away with this without a word out of the administration or Congress. Even after 9/11. Even though Americans continue to be harmed by these wretched illegals every single day. It's disgraceful.
Is obeying the law now optional in the USA, depending on which laws the oligarchs don't want enforced? It makes me sick.
