Hello all; I wrote this back in MAY - I belong to many action groups (AFA WND Grassfire Nation, Patrriotic Resistance etc. ) Apparently, not being accustomed to navigating this site, I'd sent it to myself. GRR!
I was just reading about a beseiged Vet in Mexifornia (burbank) and I very much understand his situation. http://www.alipac.us/ftopict-211691.html
I got the following from a tea perty member. This is being sent since I was born and raised in Tucson. I had the statement "born in AZ, before the invasion" on my JibJab. pg, before J.J. was discontinued as a blog.
I live in NV now, but if this is allowed to continue, it won't matter where you live in these United States.

Sometimes you have to put the hammer down. Pretending the problem will solve itself is ... something I can't say in Church.

SB 1070 shouldn't need defending. How pathetic that we've allowed the situation to come to this point!

Talk about "you can't go home again"!!!
To show exactly how overdue a proper response to illegals is, Examine this map:

http://geology.com/cities-map/arizona.shtml


Tucson is exactly 65 miles from the border! Phoenix, the state capitol, is about 100 miles NW of Tucson.
This excerpt from a statement an AZ senator mentioned in "Arizona State Senator Sylvia Allen explains SB 1070": (bold font my emphasis)
"The border patrol is not on the border. They have set up 60 miles away with check points that do nothing to stop the invasion. They are not allowed to use force in stopping anyone who is entering. They run around chasing them, if they get their hands on them then they can take them back across the border."
Santa Cruz County is a tiny one (refer to map) just below Pima County. Douglas is a small city very close to the border. The following letter was posted by another tea party member.






I guess this is why AZ passed the law. The wild west is here; but PC rules as the wicked villain. Obviously AZ is mad as Hell & does not plan to take it any more.

Mexican Assassins - Border battles - where is Homeland Security????
Date: Tue, 27 Apr 2010 15:52:07 -0400

Anybody still believe that we do not need military on the border?

I received this e-mail from a friend and resident of Santa Cruz County. He
is trustworthy and honest. I believe the content to be true. It gives me
great cause for concern. I have sent a copy of this to Senator Kyl's office
and Senator McCain. Unfortunately McCain must be contacted through a mail
"form" and it's questionable if anyone will read it.

Forwarded to me by a friend who recently retired from border
patrol.........

As you know, one of the local ranchers, Bob Krentz, was murdered in
Douglas several weeks ago. I received three messages similar to the one
below from different officers within the Rangers and law enforcement.

Yesterday afternoon I talked to another rancher near us who is a friend of
ours and whose great grandfather started their ranch here in 1880. These are
good people. He told me what really happened out at the Krentz ranch and
what you won't read in the papers. The Border Patrol is afraid of starting a
small war between civilians here and the drug cartels in Mexico.

Bob Krentz was checking his water like he does every evening and came upon
an illegal who was lying on the ground telling him he was sick. Bob called
the Border Patrol and asked for a medical helicopter evac. As he turned to
go back to his ATV he was shot in the side. The round came from down and
angled up so they know the shooter was on the ground. Bob's firearm was in
the ATV so he had no chance. Wounded he called the Cochise County Sherriff
and asked for help. Bleeding in the lungs he called his brother but the
line was bad so he called his wife but again the line was bad.

Several ranchers heard the radio call and drove to his location. Bob was
dead by this time. The ranchers tracked the shooter 8 miles back towards
Mexico and cornered him in a brushy draw. This was all at night. The
Sherriff and Border Patrol arrived and told them not to go down and engage
the murderer. They went around to the back side and if you can believe it
the assassin managed to get by a BP helicopter and a Sherriff's posse and
back to Mexico . So much for professional help when you need it.

One week before the murder Bob and his brother Phil (who I shoot with)
hauled a huge quantity of drugs off the ranch that they found in trucks. One
week before that a rancher near Naco did the same thing. Two nights later
gangs broke into his ranch house and beat him and his wife and told them
that if they touched any drugs they found they would come back and kill
them. The ranchers here deal with cut fences and haul drug deliveries off
their ranches all the time. What ranchers think is that the drug cartels
beat the one rancher and shot Bob because they wanted to send a message. Bob
always gave food and water to illegals and so they think they sent the
assassin to pose as an illegal who was hungry and thirsty knowing it would
catch Bob off guard.

What is going on down here is NOT being reported. You need to tell people
how bad it is along the border. Texas is worse. Near El Paso it's in a state
of war. 5000 people were killed in Ciudad Juarez last year and it's over
2000 so far this year. Gun sales down here are through the roof and I get
emails from people wanting firearms training.

Something has to be done but I don't hold out much hope. These gangs have
groups in almost every city in the US . Please read below. This is serious
business. The Barrio Azteca and their sub gangs are like Mexican
Corporations and organized extremely well. If this doesn't get dealt with
down here you guys will deal with it on your streets.
