INS Confirms 'Act of War' Committed at U.S. Mexican Border

Ajo, Arizona - The Immigration and Naturalization confirms A U.S. Border patrol Agent was fired upon Friday five miles inside the U.S. Border, increasing the calls for citizens to take direct action to halt what a U.S. Border Patrol agent called "an act of war." This is one of 21 border incursions that have taken place over the last year.
According to a U.S. Border Patrol Agent, the Tohono O'odham Police Department encountered a Mexican military incursion on Friday, May 17, 2002 at approximately 8:30 PM along the Santa Cruz trail inside the Papago Farms border patrol area, just south of Forest Road 21.
The unnamed agent spotted three Mexican soldiers in a Mexican Humvee on U.S. soil and was attempting to leave the area when the rear window of his vehicle was apparently shattered by gunfire. "The agent was leaving the area in an effort to avoid a confrontation" with the Mexicans, according to Lori Haley, and INS spokeswoman.
"I cannot in good conscience stand by and watch another incursion along our border take place," said U.S. Rep Tancredo (R-CO). "Unless we open our eyes and recognize that what's happening along the U.S. Mexico border is real, one of our guys is going to get killed.
The U.S. Border Patrol Agent, who wishes to remain anonymous, informed Rep. Tancredo during a phone conversation that approximately five miles north of the U.S./Mexico border, one the "GS-11" agents out of the Ajo border patrol station noticed a military helicopter flying overhead, heading south towards Mexico. Shortly thereafter, he came upon a humvee, which not only began to approach him, but to fire upon his vehicle. According to the agent's testimony, the vehicles rear window and back driver's side windows were destroyed. Fortunately, the agent was able to flee the incursion unharmed and concluded the conversation by stating, "As far as I am concerned, that [incursion] should be an act of war."
With the increase in hostilities now confirmed by the U.S. government, Sierra Times has learned that private citizens are making preparations to deal directly with such incursions in the future. Stay tuned.

Nice words to the song.
I just couldn't help but think about how things have changed. Last month the President invited a brain damage, druggy to a big dinner in DC and this same guy was arrested for urinating on the Alamo some years back. I reckon the times are a changen.
And the OB wards.
The other Republicans, that don't want to go down with Bush, should start siding with Tancredo against Mexico, amnesty for illegal aliens and a 'Trojan Horse' guest worker program.
Tancredo needs to go on O'Reilly's program often and keep pushing for militarized borders. Only our military can keep their military and their citizens on their side of the borders.
LOL! Here we are into 15 years of being invaded by millions upon millions of illegal aliens, that are defecating on our sovereignty and have no respect for our laws or our country, our border and immigration policies have turned into a complete total national security disaster and a national disgrace, and your whining and crying about someone saying "taco bender!!!" LOL!
LOL! Thanks for the laughs. And get your stinking priorities straight.
4,058,560. But that’s just a guess.
< /sarcasm >
They're probably escorting drug runners over the border...or illegals. Either way, the border guards should return fire on anyone who takes a pot shot at them and then take pictures of the bodies and put them at every border crossing for 100 miles in either direction.
Tuor
I think all these event's have to do with corrupt Mexican border patrol and drug deals. Mexico is the Palestine of our southern border, and it is getting rougher all the time.
If a border patrol agent gets killed by Mexican soldiers, the Mexicans are going to be in for a hell of a shock, IMO. I don't think our government will be able to restrain some serious reprecussions by the locals along the border...and others.

The stunner here is that the U.S. Border Patrol agent was "attempting to leave the area" when he encountered the Mexicans in a Humvee.......
On U.S. soil!!!
No "Let's Roll" American spirit evident here....! Your right - call out the Marines, with heavy weapons and blow a couple Mexican Humvees back into
the Rio Grande... sing a yippi ki ayi, yippi ki oh!
The smartest thing this guy could have done was retreat.
He was out gunned and out manned, yet you want him to throw his life away for drugs.
