I know that this is becoming too much of a habit, but being away from the blog recently has been family related. Our youngest went through a required surgery - not too much fun for a little one. She’s getting better, so, today there are a few moments to post some comments regarding what I’ve been reading in the news and blogosphere lately.

In GrassFire.org’s latest project, there is a petition to sign that is VERY important. The border patrol has been our last bastion against wholesale stupidity regarding our porous southern border. Two border patrol agents are being prosecuted for capturing and attempting to arrest a drug smuggler from Mexico. Um, what a minute, we let the bad guy go free and we’re gonna put the good guys in jail?! Here’s Steve Elliott’s latest e-mail comments:

“Even though I’m familiar with this story, it still makes me angry that our nation seems more concerned with illegal aliens than with their own citizens–especially men of law who are trying to protect our borders!

It is absolutely insane that we would allow an illegal drug smuggler to literally walk away from his transgressions for his testimony against these two Border Agents. And to think this same illegal alien is now in the process of suing our government for millions because he believes his civil rights were violated?

What about the rights of us citizens? What about the rights of those he was going to peddle his drugs to?”

Can’t ya hear the awe and amazement, let alone digust, in his comments? I’ve read up on this story and there are numerous articles and posts regarding this situation. No matter your proclivity, this is completely unacceptable.

Head on over to sign the petition at GrassFire.org and keep the heat on!
