American Border Patrol Challenges DHS Fence Numbers

This Friday, October 10, American Border Patrol, a non-profit Arizona Corporation, will present results of its aerial survey of the border fence that challenge claims by the Department of Homeland Security. The press conference will be held at the Marriott University Park Hotel in Tucson at 10:00 a.m.

Between September 29 and October 2, ABP performed an aerial survey of the border from Fabens Texas to the Pacific Ocean at San Diego. Using a specially equipped Cessna TU-206, ABP videotaped the entire border in HD from an altitude of 500 feet. Hundreds of still photos were taken linked to GPS coordinates. These data were used in Google Earth to develop maps of border fence locations.

ABP has been performing these surveys on a bi-monthly basis since early 2007.

ABP will present detailed results of the survey and will explain why it is challenging claims made by the DHS regarding the amount if fencing it has constructed.

The conflict between DHS and ABP first surfaced in a front-page story in the Sierra Vista Herald last Sunday, October 5.

'It is important for the American People to know the truth about the border fence and how much security they really have," said Glenn Spencer, head of ABP.

Ignoring the Invasion
800 Pound Guerilla Can't Be Seen


American Patrol Report -- October 13


Last week American Border Patrol held a press conference in Tucson to expose government lies about the border. For the first time in fifteen years of holding press conferences, Glenn Spencer reported that no one showed up. He even got an e-mail from a TV reporter who said he had asked his station to cover the story and expressed surprise when they didn't.
Spencer did get a call from a reporter with the Houston Chronicle asking that he send information on the fence by e-mail. He did, but the reporter ignored the information and continued to repeat government lies.
"After decades of working to control the media the liberals are now cashing in," Spencer said. "They will not allow the issue of the border and illegal immigration to enter the presidential debate and Obama and McCain are more than happy to oblige."
Spencer said that the present financial catastrophe has its roots in illegal immigration and affirmative action and if the people don't stand up and defend their country now, America is certainly finished as a unified first-world nation.
