I know that I am going to be in the minority here, and you all will think that I am crazy, but no, I don't think it is a bad precedent. Our country is already turning into the wild west, and the good guys are losing. By making an example out of a couple of Border Patrol agents, as they have to the Minutemen, only makes me more angry. I am almost willing to bet that these two men will serve more jail time than many of our rapist, drug dealers and illegals. I know what you are saying, but I don't agree with that anymore. It is already a free for all, especially on the border. We would rather see a little old lady rot in her apartment freezing from the cold, without food, and too fearful to step foot outside of her home, than to execute known criminals who are keeping her there. That, my friend, is a sad day. Let's start helping the people that make this country great, and stop protecting the dregs of humanity.

By all means no Crocket, let's make sure we give the benefit of the doubt to the scummy drug dealers not to our border guards, that just would not sit right with our Liberals and our PC Americans.
Build the dam fence post haste!

Neese, you are not alone. IMO just because "proceedure" may not have been followed exactly by the book, resulting in these two agents being convicted DOES NOT mean it was morally correct or that real justice was served here. This scumbag gets away on a technicality? Then turns around and repeats the offense? His actions do not bear out the treatment he has received. Again, rewarding illegal activities while we send two men away for years because they didn't "follow proceedure". Heck, while we are on this let's all make sure we carry a copy of "Roberts Rules Of Order" to every rally and protest so we can make sure we "follow proceedure" when addressing these criminals that could care less what we think or what our steeenking proceedures are.

A more logical outcome would be to suspend teh border agents, not put them in jail

Crocket,
I appreciate the rational way that you present your arguments and find myself agreeing with you most of the time.
However, I have a problem with the conviction of these agents, based upon the sworn statements of 3 jurors who claim to have been coerced into the unanimous verdict by the jury foreman. On this alone I believe that the agents in question deserve a new trial, preferably one in which ALL the evidence is allowed to be heard.
My 2 cents...
