Yes, I saw that.

The chances of the murderer being an illegal alien are not likely, IMO.

AMEN to that!

We can all agree that whoever did this is an animal!

We can also agree that there are those over at La Raza celebrating.

It will be interesting to see who the other victims are as well.

Just reported that ICE was called in to the investigation

I am concerned with how hard many media sources are trying to spin this as being caused by the tea party, before any of the facts are known. The AP article lists a bunch of earlier incidents where offices were trashed and such - relating to the healthcare bill....

I smell a cover-up starting.... Or a massive spin/propaganda push to try and take advantage...

A possible motive? Mexican drug cartel payback?

U.S. REP. GABRIELLE GIFFORDS STATEMENT ON THE SHOOTING OF PINAL COUNTY DEPUTY LOUIE PUROLL

http://giffords.house.gov/2010/05/us-re ... roll.shtml

TUCSON - U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords today issued the following statement in response to Friday afternoon’s shooting of Pinal County Sheriff's Deputy Louie Puroll. The 53-year-old deputy was shot while on patrol in a remote stretch of desert south of Phoenix known as a corridor used by drug smugglers.

What will it take? Who else will be shot? How much more violence must we endure before the federal government secures our border?

These are the questions that Arizonans are asking after Friday's shooting of Deputy Puroll by suspected drug smugglers. We want answers and we want them now.

The federal government's failure to secure our border is a direct and dire threat to public safety in Arizona. The consequences of this failure are all too apparent on our highways and ranches and in our cities and towns. Arizonans have had enough.

We know what must be done and we want it done now. President Obama and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano must move quickly to confront this worsening situation. They must immediately deploy the National Guard and increase the number of Border Patrol agents on the border in Arizona.

Deputy Puroll is fortunate. His confrontation with drug smugglers didn’t cost him his life. Rob Krentz wasn’t so lucky. The federal government needs to act.
