Special Alert! Roger Barnett Threatened With Arrest

According to reliable sources, it is expected that the FBI will arrest Roger Barnett in the near future, possibly today. The charge will be kidnapping. Please watch this special video message. Click Here for Video

Roger Barnett is a Cochise County rancher who, the year alone, as apprehended and turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol over 2000 illegal border intruders.

He's been all over the papers and even in Time magazine and is consistently demonized by the leftist Reconquista types for protecting his property and turning the criminals over to the Border Patrol.

I know Roger Barnett - he is a good person - a great Republican - and a great American. The thought that our own government will arrest this man for non-violently protecting his own property is beyond alarming.

We need FReeper help in getting the word out about this and in, possibly, protecting Roger Barnett - or at least being there watching, video-taping when he is arrested. And then protesting like crazy once he is arrested.

This is intolerable! Instead of protecting our borders the Justice Department and the federal government is going after the guys that have to do it for themselves to protect their own property and livelihood.

Watch video and get involved. Please reply here if you want to help out with this situation. I'm going to get in touch with Roger Barnett and see if I can get an update on this situation and will keep everyone posted.

Don't sit and do nothing while a good American is persecuted for upholding the law. Let's roll.

Thanks for the ping. Will be watching for more info.

Will be? Is this a fact or paranoia? Or should we say… let's be mindful of the fact that paranoia sufferers are very suspicious of what will happen in the future.

[SAMWolf]

Depends on what you consider a "reliable source" I guess.

[Victoria Delsoul]

Hmmm. ;-)

[Tancredo Fan]

PING!!! Please ping your usual Border/Immigration List and get involved!

This is an outrage, or it will be if the feds pull this off. We need more Americans like Roger Barnett.... not only on the border, but in the interior. The feds are worthless in curtailing the onslaught and removing the squatters. They ain't going to do it. So it really is up to the peopled. When the feds start arresting Americans for DOING THE JOBS THE FEDS ARE MANDATED TO DO, the fit is going to hit the shan. It's coming. Soon.

"Don't sit and do nothing while a good American is persecuted for upholding the law. Let's roll."

This guy is an American hero! If anyone can think of something we can do other than call and fax the WhiteHouse, let me know. LET'S ROLL! It's time our politicians understood that we want something done NOW about our borders and we won't sit back and let this man be bullied! This is the worst kind of tyranny.

[brat]

"Bush and Company better make sure this arrest doesn't happen, or there will be hell to pay."

Then I think there will be hell to pay....does anyone seriously think that Jorge will do something about it? Barrage your congress critters and call and fax the WhiteHouse. In an election year it just might help this hero! LET'S ROLL!

[brat]

Thanks for the hope, Boot Hill. Does anyone have a connection to the American Center for Law and Justice? They win cases and support citizen vs. tyranny causes.

[brat]

It will take everyone saying "enough is enough" and voting third party. The Dems and Reps are obviously not going to uphold our laws.

[DLfromthedesert]

I believe Mr. Barnett was interviewed on O'Reilly. If this really happens, I hope O'Reilly is notified.

How is arresting a person for a federal offense, which is allowed by federal law, 'kidnapping'?

Is it Tea Party time yet?

[rockfish59]

Can't touch this!

[Tancredo Fan]

We need more Roger Barnett's...

...and fewer worthless globalist feds. Boink the NWO.

You can bet that any complaining came from the 'La Raza' crowd or that vile Mexican government.... you know, the loathsome government we should be going after before we go after Iraq.

[PatrioticAmerican]

Yep. Mexico is a far greater threat to our way of life than Iraq will ever be.

Does he have a good Sheriff who will tell the Feds to take a hike?

Larry Dever is a conservative Republican. However, he's not been known for sticking his neck out too far in issues such as this. Oh - he's LDS too.

Sheriff Dever can be contacted at (520)432-9505 and his Fax is (520)432-3517.

Here's a little bit about him at AmericanPatrol.com

Dever has said in the past that Ranchers have the right to protect themselves just as Roger Barnett has. He's also stated that his department has looked into Roger Barnett and has found no wrongdoing in what he's done to protect his property.
