Well, here we go folks, the lack of good Border Patrol Agents has lead to this! :o

Ya know....there's NO telling how many of the ppl have crossed the Mexican/Az border! We've been so focused on the bigger picture, airports, power plants etc, they we have almost totaly forgotten about the border! I know in Tombstone Az. (the town too tough to die) they have set up their own border patrol, citizens armed to the TEETH patroling on horseback, ATV'S etc!

I would LOVE to be a part of that posse! It's headed by the gentleman who owns the local paper there in Tombstone, the US Customs, Border Patrol, Az DPS has tried to shut them down but it's a legal posse! The DPS calls them a *bunch of vigilantes looking for a fight* You bet your @$$ they are, wish I could be there with 'em!

That should have been front page news in the national media. did I miss something?

I'm a big Bush Fan, but someone needs to hold his feet to the fire on this subject.

That Story was First Brough to Light

on February 12th by the Sierra Vista Hearld which also published one of the photos of the handwriting in Farsi. The US Government has consistently suppressed the news about happenings around the Border such as Death Threats against US Citizens living near it, actual abductions of US Citizens, arrests of Iraqi Nationals near the Border after 9-11 and just recently in Tijuana, and the fact that since October 1st 330 illegals have been apprehended ON Fort Huachuca which is more than the number caught in the entire 12 month period ending last September 30th (220) and at that only about 1/3 are caught it is estimated. Bottom line, is that our Borders are total sieves and that if the American people don't wake up and demand that something be done about them, we are going to pay for it and dearly.
