PHOENIX (AP) — Cattle rancher Rob Krentz often helped illegal immigrants he found stranded on his sprawling Arizona ranch.
Then two weeks ago, he and his dog were gunned down shortly after he reported spotting someone who appeared to be in trouble. Foot tracks were followed from the shooting scene about 20 miles south, to the Mexico border, and authorities suspect an illegal immigrant.
The killing of the third-generation rancher has become a flashpoint in the immigration debate as politicians cite the episode as further proof that the U.S. must do more to secure the violent U.S.-Mexico border.

Krentz's family members declined requests for comment, but released a statement saying he was a humanitarian "who bore no ill will toward anyone" and instilled in his children the importance of honesty and fair dealing.
The family said they hold no malice toward the Mexican people and blame the U.S. and Mexican governments for the killing.
"Their disregard of our repeated pleas and warnings of impending violence toward our community fell on deaf ears shrouded in political correctness," according to the statement. "As a result, we have paid the ultimate price for their negligence in credibly securing our borderlands."

20-25 million more on Medicare, and social security......even if they never paid a dime into it.
The rest of America is begging you to vote McCain OUT!!!
Don't send him back to the Senate!!! Vote J. D. Hayworth, Republican for US Senate!!!
Graham and McCain’s sick dream of merging our homeland with Mexico was beaten back by their more patriotic colleagues when last attempted. Unfortunately, there are many fewer patriots in Congress now.
How is JD’s campaign going?
Can he retire McShame?
Yes.
Ping!
McCain swears allegiance to an outfit started by a Nazi sympathizer (LaRaza).
As he is wrong about so many things, McCain is wrong about this. There is and has been no clamor by the American people "to sit down and work this issue out together". None. What the American people have been demanding year after year, decade after decade is to enforce the law, not make up new law. Now, enforcing the law means securing the border. It means targeting companies that hire illegals. It means no sanctuary city nonsense. It means identifying the illegals, who are criminals and deporting them. It means creating the environment to encourage the illegals to go home.
Juan McLame, that's what the American people have been saying. Either you can't hear them or you're not listening. In any case, your time is up. Lose your primary with dignity and go away.
Real Americans are depending on Arizona voters to forcibly retire him!
I guess the purpose of John McPain has been to make old Tom Dewey look better in retrospect.
That’s our problem, depending on any voters, particularly AZ Republican primary people who just vote for names they have heard of.
