I know that area well. We use to drive down that road to the beach in Mexico. I have never seen any border patrol from the US or Mexico along that route. It was an easy way to drive in an out of Mexico.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

‘Nuff said!

So what if this well regulated militia of US citizens were to position themselves on the US borders?

They would be publicly denigrated by our public officials and the press, just like the Minutemen were.

Too bad we don’t have a patriotic president–someone like BiBi Netanyahu, who would be pushing settlements into Mexico and grabbing their land.

There’s a thought: a one hundred mile buffer zone. Maybe Mexico will sit up and take notice of that!

I remember back in the 50’s Nikita Khrushchev said from the UN podium he would bury us. I dont remember his saying he would do it with illegal Mexicans.

United States Constitution second amendment reads; “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.”
So what if this well regulated militia of US citizens were to position themselves on the US borders?

Our politicians are so corrupt and arrogant–it’s just like some of those African or third world nations.

Have to put most of the blame on the sheeple though, with whom the issue isn’t resonating. Seems like they have been conditioned by PC to put diversity above rule of law and sovereignty.

graysonret — The Supremes can’t do anything until a case gets to them. Bush carries the can for this, just as he does for the shameful and illegal treatment of Agents Ramos and Compean and Deputy Gil Hernandez. When the “Decider” violates his oath of office and leaves his own citizens hung out to dry — or dead — because he favors Mexicans over Americans, he needs to be removed from power.

There are plenty of Senators and Representatives who need to go right along with him, as well as appointed pitbulls like Johnny Sutton.

There is not one trustworthy presidential candidate on this issue — from either party — except for the late Duncan Hunter.

How much farther does the criminal activity have to escalate before the people rise and demand that our laws be enforced by the scum in DC?

Not this year, Lars. They’re all scrambling around for positions in their parties, because it’s a big election year. They certainly can’t be bothered with a death of a border agent, unless they have to show some brief remorse for the cameras.

They put up traffic cams to save ONE life. (It’s a sham).
They try to take our guns to save ONE life. (It’s a control).
They block oil drilling to save ONE fish. (It’s a sham).

But they won’t enforce the laws that can save ONE country. (They are in cahoots with the enemy).

I don’t know who to be angry with anymore! They are all crooked. They say the right things only to screw you in the end. DOES ANYONE IN CONGRESS UNDERSTAND WHAT IS IN THE CONSTITUTION THAT THEY SWEAR TO UPHOLD?

We don’t need any more laws for border enforcement-we need the laws on the books to be enforced.

Where were Senators Isakson, Kyl, Cornyn, Vitter and Pryor when Sen. Hutchison gutted (in Dec. 07) the Secure Fence Act?

The Secure Fence Act was written by Duncan Hunter and became law.

I’m with one of the other commentors-it’s time for land mines.

Impeach him for what, rightisright? Do you even know what an impeachment is? It isn’t a conviction. Do you imply that the robbers try and convict the “thief”? What is with you people that think the government is some sort of one man show? I haven’t seen one person come out and suggest that the Supreme Court could do an awful lot to settle this question too. Perfectly simple. Accept an illegal case and rule that they “gotta go”. Heck, the Supreme Court has done even worse.

Now there is legal reason to impeach Bush…he is not protecting the citizenry, he has broken his oath of office again. Ba$tard and I voted for the scum bucket twice…what does that say about our choices to lead the country.
Sutton going to give visa’s to the drivers(killers)…might, he’s Jorges good friend.

My heart goes out to the family of the downed boarder agent.

Meanwhile in Houston, TX, there is a national conference for the National Network for Immigrant and Refugee Rights going on this weekend. Our esteemed Rep Sheila Jackson Lee was there. Per the Austin American Statesman:

But as members gathered for their national conference at a downtown Houston hotel, they heard a rousing exhortation from U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Houston, who invoked comparisons to the civil rights movement and urged them not to lose heart. "We're the new movement," Jackson Lee said. "We challenge the laws and can be civilly disobedient when we believe they are unjust. What we're asking for is laws that are just and for the (current) laws to be changed."

Declaring we can be civilly disobedient. Pre conference Chronicle article. This is how the crapweasels in DC are taking notice.
