Border Wars

Meanwhile, down on our Southern border the Mess-cans are throwing rocks at our border patrol agents. I guess they heard that all you have to do is harass our agents until they shoot at you, then you can get the agent arrested and sue the US for millions to boot. How much longer is this screwed-up mess going to go on?

You know ... if we gave our border patrol agents orders to “shoot to kill” and looked the other way, it wouldn’t be long before our neighbors to the South got the hint and left us alone. It worked in 1848. The Mess-cans just need a refresher course in international relations.

Border Patrol Agent Shoots at Immigrants
_{EL PASO, Texas (AP) - February 15, 2007, 12:00 AM EST}

Border Patrol officials are investigating a shooting at the Mexican border that involved one of their agents. Doug Mosier, a spokesman for the Border Patrol’s El Paso Sector, said an agent fired at least one shot at a group of would-be immigrants Tuesday night during a confrontation along the border near downtown El Paso.

The agent fired at least one shot after some of the immigrants began throwing rocks at him, narrowly missing the agent’s head, Mosier said. The immigrants ran from the border after the agent fired. Border Patrol officials do not believe anyone was injured, Mosier said.

The shooting is under investigation, though Mosier said initial reports show the agent fired in self-defense. Last month a Border Patrol agent shot and killed a Mexican national in Arizona, drawing criticism from Mexico’s president. The Border Patrol has said the agent thought his life was in danger and placed him on paid administrative leave.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
