TX Assistant DA found dead in Mexico

Seriously?  Why the hell isn't this huge news??  An Assistant DA from Texas is found dead in Mexico and it's not all over the radio, tv, internet??

Texas prosecutor's death was suicide: Mexican official 

(Reuters) - Autopsy results show a South Texas prosecutor killed himself by ingesting poison over the weekend in Mexico, according to the Mexican state of Tamaulipas attorney general's office.

Cameron County Assistant District Attorney Arturo Jose Iniguez was found dead Saturday in Matamoros, Mexico.

Tamaulipas officials said in a press release posted on the state website that they would share the results of the investigation into Iniguez's death with U.S. authorities.

Cameron County District Attorney Armando Villalobos said in a written statement on Tuesday that he expects to receive case information from Tamaulipas officials early next week.

He added that a second autopsy would be performed by a pathologist in Texas, and it would not be possible to make a final determination on Iniguez's cause of death "until we conclude the review of all evidence" in the case.

Iniguez, 26, lived in Laguna Vista, Texas, with his wife and 2-year-old daughter. His funeral is set for Thursday.

Matamoros is a city of about 489,000 residents across the U.S.-Mexico border from Brownsville, Texas.

UAW Breaks Godwins Law

The commies who run today's United Auto Workers union have used Martin Niemollers famous saying "First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out... " to denigrate anyone who doesn't agree with their version of workers holding the rest of us hostage to their demands along with a gratuitous slam on anyone who wishes to see our borders enforced.  Of course, they have to support immigrant workers because normal (read Capitalist) Americans aren't interested in the marxism the UAW is selling.  Well, except for the recent gathering of gimme-freaks in Wisconsin and one lunatic that I know who insists that she "has faith in the union" to which she doesn't even belong!  How thick can you be?

Can you read that?  If not, here is the text

At first they came for the steel workers, but what could I do, I wasn't a steel worker?
Then they came for the textile workers, but what could I do, I wasn't a textile worker?
Then they came for the auto workers, but what could I do, I wasn't an auto worker?
Then they came for the immigrant workers, but would could I do, I wasn't an immigrant?
Then they came for me, and by that time, there was no one left.

I  took a screen cap of their vile page but definitely go look for yourself.  While you're there, take a peek at the cover of their commie rag for March-April 2011 States of Denial.  Watch for protests and riots on April 4 in your community - go to them, film them, post the pictures of their signs and the recordings of their hateful words on the internet.

US Ambassador to Mexico Resigns After Telling the Truth

I read BorderLand Beat fairly regularly and if you're at all interested in the actual situation on our borders and inside Mexico, I suggest that you do as well.  For example, while reading BorderLand Beat yesterday, I learned that the U.S. Ambassador to Mexico had resigned.  Hadn't heard anything about this on any news.  It seems he resigned after some wikileaks exposed his complaints about inefficiency and infighting among Mexican security forces - ie, he resigned after telling the truth.

Secretary of State Clinton said Pascual resigned "based upon his personal desire to ensure the strong relationship between our two countries and to avert issues" raised by President Felipe Calderon without identifying the issues or when they were raised.  Perhaps Calderon raised these "issues" when he met with Obama two weeks ago.

Calderon is on record as complaining about US meddling in Mexican domestic policy!  Meddling???  The wikileak quoted U.S officials describing "widespread corruption" in Mexican security agencies (TRUE) and "a dysfuntionally low level of collaboration" (TRUE), described the Mexican army as "slow" (TRUE) and "risk averse" (TRUE), and concluded that only 2% of people arrested in Cuidad Juarez (the most violent city in Mexico, wracked by drug-cartel-related killings) were charged with a crime.

Meddling??  Seriously, let's STOP all that nasty meddling, bring our surging numbers of law enforcement people operating inside Mexico home and use them to enforce our national border!   And while we're at that, shut down all monetary transfers to Mexico - every last penny.  Calderone can handle his internal problems on his own.  Enforcing our border will keep his problems out of our country.

If you think I just said that Calderone and the Mexican people that they can go pound sand and deal with their own problems, you're right.  I'm fed up with operating our own country as if it were the welfare agency for Mexico's browner population.  That's right, I said it, the Mexicans of primarily European descent don't care at all about their browner citizens of obviously more tribal descent and are quite happy to export them here and rake in $20 Billion a year from them. 

My Absence

I have been a bit busy this year. Work, sick, work, sick - a vicious cycle of attack from a germ here, a virus there and never having enough of a break from work to get completely well.  But, it looks like i'm going to have a lot more free time soon so I hope to return to blogging about the border situation here in the American South-West and various other topics of interest to me and, hopefully, to you.  Starting... well, now.

Christchurch, New Zealand Earthquake

You may have noticed the link in my side bar to Kirly in NZ.  I went on a Lord of the Rings Movie Location Tour with Red Carpet Tours.  It was the vacation of a lifetime.  I made friends there and because of my trip, have made other friends with connections to NZ.  I hope to go back some day.  The Kiwi people were universally pleasant and friendly (like Texans!).  Christchurch was one of my favorite stops on the tour.  I was saddened to hear of the death and destruction which has taken place there.  Pray for the Kiwis. And remember that they and Australia have been among our best friends.

Rose found a link to live streaming local television coverage here.  I stayed up way too late watching that last night.  65 reported dead last I heard.  From the looks of the devastation, that number will likely go up as more people are found over the next days.

The damage is much worse than last September.  Look at this graph from GeoNet which is reporting 59 quakes.  Some of those after-shocks rival the big jolt at the beginnning.

Pray for New Zealand!  Remember the ANZAC spirit!

The Final RIP

Squeakie, my third and last remaining kitty, has been returned to her maker.  She began to grow a tumor on her back last year and she was too frail to remove it.  Now, she awaits me in my Heavenly mansion along with Sockies and Hedi.

Squeak

Squeak slept most of her life... when she wasn't eating or engineering a "Squeak Attack" on Socks or Hedi.

Yes, that's a "Lion cut".  A mane,and a poof on the end of her tail.  So adorable.

And this was just too cute.  She was actually asleep with her head stuck between the pillows.

Petulant Political Propagandist Dupnik Finally Shuts Up

The Petulant Leftwing Political Propagandist Sheriff Dupnik of Pima County has finally shut the hell up.  Or has he?  I bet he hasn't.  I bet he has just put a stop to all actual facts being discussed and his political pontificating will continue.  This essentially means that nothing will come out of the Pima County Sheriffs office except through Dupniks pie hole which, as we have all seen for over a week now, is pure propaganda.

From HumanEvents

What’s the “controversy” between the County Attorney’s office and Sheriff Buford T. Dupnik? There are no official details yet, but it’s not hard to imagine a roomful of prosecutors watching Dupnik shoot the breeze with media outlets he likes, about media outlets he hates, and screaming in frustration. Every defense attorney goes to sleep at night dreaming of a loudmouth official who uses global press coverage to float his pet theories about who might really be responsible for the crime. If Jared Loughner accepts a little coaching from his defense team, prosecutors will be thinking about tossing the ends of their neckties into the ceiling fans by the end of this trial.

In a development that absolutely infuriates the Left, targets of the Tucson blood libel have been responding to the scurrilous accusations against them. Dupnik made a point of selecting one Rush Hudson Limbaugh III, of West Palm Beach, Florida, as one of those targets. According to complaints Dupnik made to the Washington Post, a tidal wave of Limbaugh listeners have been calling him to suggest he give up his career in media criticism and get back to something resembling law enforcement. This might have contributed to the sense of frustration over at the County Attorney’s office.

He's mad because he's been vigorously criticized.  This is the typical response of leftists - if they don't like what you are saying, they want to silence you.  Well, over my dead body Sheriff Dumbass.  You can ignore us all you want, but you're way past your sell-by date

Tucson, you need to get rid of this idiot.

From KGUN9

"Until further notice, due to a controversy between the Sheriff's Department and the County Attorney's office, no further information reference the January 8, 2011 shooting will be released."

...

The word "controversy" contained in the statement would seem to imply some sort of disagreement or discord between the Sheriff's Department and LaWall's office. But the statement did not elaborate about the nature of the controversy. When contacted by KGUN9 News, LaWall's office declined to comment.

...

Kastigar (Pima Count Sherrif Bureau Chief) has said recently that the security tapes from the morning of the shooting are crystal clear and show exactly what happened and in what order.

Well, that's it then.  They don't want us to know what is crystal clear, i guess.  Well, that's ok Dupnik, the FBI has desribed the surveillance video themselves.

From KVOA

Loughner entered Safeway and headed to the restroom. At some point, putting in ear plugs.

"He had the frame of mind to protect his hearing before he went and shot 20 people and to me that's very telling," said Pima County Sheriff's Office bureau chief Rick Kastigar.

He watched the surveillance video that captured the deadly shooting.

"He very deliberately with purpose walks up to a figure that is on the very edge of the frame of the video and fires one shot. You can see the little wisps of hair of that person," he said.

That person was Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.

In an animation the shooter turns to Ron Barber and hits him in the shoulder.

Judge John Roll is standing next to him and pushes him to the ground.

Dupnik Whines and Pontificates

Listen to Pima County, Arizona Sheriff Dupnik blather on about how the evil Republicans wanted to give "tax cuts to the rich" and then whine about the reaction to his stupidity (article here).  It's all despicable but listen to him whine and then pontificate at 1 minute in.  Apparently, the shooting is all about Ethel Kennedy who has to "go through this" again when it happens to someone else and it brings back painful memories.  So, that's why the rest of us should give up all our weapons.  Well, screw you Dupnik.  You can pry my weapons from my cold dead fingers.

He gets calls from Kennedys and all over the country in support and vile messages and threats from those who disagree with him.  Nothing reasonable in opposition.  Sure, Dupnik.  I called Sunday after the shooting and said "As the sheriff, a law enforcement official, you are out of line".  That's so vile.

Donnie Deusch and Al Sharpton lie about Arizona's 18 year old MLK Holiday

Yes, I said lie.  Arizona has an MLK day and has had since 1992.  Talk about blood libel!
