I spoke to Chris Simcox, the leader of Civil Homeland Defense, on Thursday night. He thought this article was going to be a positive portrayal of the rescues that CHD performs in the desert. I told him not to get his hopes up. I was right. I'm going to try to get his reaction to this article and post it here.

There will never be any positive portrayal by the mainstream media.

Four people, one an infant, and just one bottle of water? The coroner would have had them by the next afternoon.

While there have been no official reports of mistreatment by the Arizona groups, there is a lawsuit pending against Ranch Rescue in Texas, filed in May by the Southern Poverty Law Center on behalf of six undocumented immigrants who say they were assaulted. Ranch Rescue officials deny the allegations. Ranch Rescue has a more militant background than the others, calling themselves "soldiers" defending private property.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is the Morris Dees front that can be best described as civil rights pimps. He has made a personal fortune by exploiting his experience in mail order and liberal guilt. He has suceeded in bankrupting the KKK, however, with a RICO like suit alleging conspiracy. In this new suit against Ranch Rescue he openly admits that the purpose of the litigation is to bankrupt Ranch Rescue.

Dees, of course, is the darling of the media. It is inconceivable that he would be described with the red neck cliches that have been used in this article against our citizens even though Dees himself speaks with a thick southern accent. If you keep an eye on these articles about anarchy on our southern border, you will see an allusion to the The Southern Poverty Law Center in virtually every one. I suspect that that Dees mail machine has been running hot lately and that is how this article came to be written.

Wayne Cornelius, director of the Center for U.S.-Mexican Studies at the University of California-San Diego, has called the border enforcement policy "the clearest . . . and most systematic violation of human rights occurring on U.S. soil today."

How did Professor Cornelius come to be consulted? Was he discovered by good old fashioned investigative reporting by Newsweek? I hardly think so. Either he is a academic flak for Dees or, more likely, he has some connection to the Ford Foundation which has an openly (but not very loudly) expressed objective to see entirely open borders. The Ford Foundation has literally billions and their pockets are so deep that they can set the terms of the national debate this early in the game. Look for some connection among Dees, Cornelius and Ford.

If my connect the dots guesses are correct, you were quite right to be skeptical about the treatment Homeland Defense would receive in this article.

The description of thunder and lightning in the desert sounds like something Jayson Blair would have written - and would have thrilled Howell Raines. Even better if he had thrown in a field of cotton and cows munching on corn as high as an elephant's eye.

They're not going to stop as long as we have a President who wants them here and talks about amnesty, who refuses to order real enforcement of immigration laws, and who won't stop the welfare state that is provided for them.

I'm writing in Tom Tancredo for President in 2004, and I hope millions of other disgusted Americans do the same. janetgreen from Mexifornia

she doesn't approve of the civilian watch groups. "Can you imagine," she asks, "if we all took the law into our own hands?"

Illegal immigrants are taking the law into their own hands, but that doesn't count.

Remember, folks, if you just relax and let it happen, then technically it isn't rape.

JackelopeBreeder and others who post about the illegal immigration issue have been suddenly banned. Does anyone know what's up with this?
