One of many water stations
Since 2001, a group known as Humane Borders has been building and maintaining water stations throughout the Arizona desert to aid those crossing into this country illegally. Humane Borders places large plastic barrels filled with drinking water throughout the Arizona border area. All of these water stations come equipped with flagpoles which fly blue flags to make it easier for the invaders to find them. The group currently operates 100 water stations. Volunteers regularly patrol the desert to give away food and offer first aid to illegal immigrants. In 2006, the group was upset because someone had been draining and sometimes damaging the water tanks. Apparently, the volunteers with Humane Borders were not paying attention to the news...American citizens have decided that the only way the border will be defended is to do it themselves! Upset over the plight of invading Mexicans, Humane Borders volunteer Frank Saavedra said: "If they're planning on getting their water at that location and they get there and there's no water, then the next time they could get water could be not before they die." Though Humane Borders seeks to make the illegal crossing into the United States as easy as possible, many locals are frustrated and fed up with the daily invasion. Tucson area resident Russ Dove told a KVOA reporter: "The vandal issue is a sign that Americans have had enough. These [illegal aliens] are robbers, rapists, murderers. This is simply aiding and abetting criminal activity." A quick review of the official website for Humane Borders gives some insight into the political motivations behind their kindness to invaders. Humane Borders lists their legislative objectives as: “(1) Legalize the undocumented now living and working in the U.S. (2) Begin a responsible guest worker program by issuing work visas directly to migrants so that they are not tied to any one employer or sector of the economy and allow workers to be organized. (3) Increase the number of visas for Mexican nationals. (4) Demilitarize border. (5) Support economic development in Mexico. (6) Federal aid for local medical service providers, law enforcement and adjudication, land owners and managers.” In a section which Humane Borders lists their major donors for the group's annual operating budget ( $205,000 (2006); $189,780 (2007); $154,000 (2008) ), they list among others, the Pima County Board of Supervisors. Are public funds being used in this endeavor? Latino broadcasters Radio Unica and Univison also contribute to the aid and comfort of the invaders. More troubling is the claim that the group makes over having permits with the National Park Service, which allows them to aid illegal aliens in several Southwestern National Parks. Among the parks Humane Borders offers regularly operate is Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, which is the site of Park Ranger Kris Eggle's murder by Mexican drug smugglers. To date, all of my interview requests to Humane Borders have been ignored. I wanted to ask them how they feel about the fact that drug smugglers and murderers are using their water stations to help them along their illegal journey into this country. It is obvious that Humane Borders have no respect for our laws, nor for the American lives which are harmed on a daily basis by illegal aliens. They are simply another left wing group which sees no need for borders and believes that everyone has the right to enter this country through any means necessary. By making the trip easier, this group actively encourages more people to invade this country, many of whom are drug smugglers, sex offenders, and quite possibly terrorists. The leadership of Humane Borders should be jailed for sedition. However, until we gain sensible leadership in Washington...I would encourage the good people in Arizona who still care about U.S. sovereignty to continue draining those tanks and replace the blue flags with American flags (but be sure to fly them up-side down).

O nooooooo those invaders don't deserve to drink a cup of water as they whant to take aztlan to their currupet country, that's an evil plan that obama and la raza have. thats why obama selected a latina to be suprme court justise, "to take our white country and give it to those parasites"
I have a better idea i how we can deal whit these invaders.
1, lets split their familys apart,
2, lets destroy their econmy by doing back ground checks,
Lets make them lose their morgages and lets pay for their 40,00 debt.
3, we then put them in gas chambers and toss their remains in the dessert.
4, we don't have to worry now, our white's children is save now.

Fact is a fact that latino comsumers spend 3x more than avarage american,
Fact, 18% of usa military is composed by latino, and some latinos are ancher babys (as you call them) that once sucked on americas blood.
Does the law of this country mean anything? These folks need to be fined and forbidden access to these parklands. We are either a land of lawful behavior, or we're part of the problem at the border. These folks are clearly aiding and abetting a crime. The crime is evident in every person that is encouraged to come here illegally. There presence here is a very expensive crime being committed on every community in this country.
This is an insult to our immigration laws and the people paid to defend our borders. But worse than that, they are encouraging an illegal act that tears families apart and creates more strife in our country. Do we need more poor people? NO.
I think the Humane Borders workers should go to Africa if they want to help poor people. Their good intentions will be used to help people in need not aid in the commission of a crime that cost the American taxpayers billions of dollars every year.
CLOSE the border before more people are affected by this criminal behav
The 1986 amnesty was a total failure! Never again! We have been invaded and colonized by the dregs of the earth from Europe, Asia, Africa and south of our border. Those fools wanting to make nice to them should foot the entire economic bill, and beg the forgiveness of every family that has suffered real loss from these anarchists.
The "rule of law" arguement is full of holes. There is no rule of law in this country. If there was, there wouldn't be 30 million illegals left to commit crimes here.
Rule of money is more like it. Put a fork in this country, it's all over except for the fat senorita singing...
Oswaldo,'En boca cerrada,no entran moscas'
And while im at it,dessert is sweet,desert is hot!
When the Facts are against you and the Laws are against you
"Cry Racism"! A red herring and brainwashing right out of Rules for Radicals! It is NOT a Racial War against Hispanics and
Hispanic Legal Citizens know this but the La Raza Open Borders crowd won't let them speak out against the Invasion!
Illegal alien smuggling from Mexico is almost exclusively run by the cartels... the same cartels that bring marijuana, crack cocaine and heroin to your community. Therefore, No More Deaths, Humane Borders and other misguided humanitarian groups are aiding and abetting a criminal enterprise.... no different than those that provide "food drops", transportation and "safe houses" for smuggled aliens.
Illegal aliens don't die in the desert for lack of water.... they die because they are left to fend for themselves in the inhospitable desert by their "cartel guide" because they become sick or injured or just can't keep up..... essentially they are murdered.
I have personally run across many "migrants" in distress out in the desert. After giving them food and water, instead of sending them back out into the dangerous desert to possibly die, I called the "first responders".... the Border Patrol.
So who is the "humanitarian" here ?
They spen 3x more because of the 20,000 a year they get from the tax payer! They get an average of 4,000 on the earned income credit alone. We have a front door. While we may have many in our military we have millions more in gangs and on welfare. Ask the ones serving if this is America or Mexico they will say America. Ask the ones sucking us dry and they will tell you Mexico.

1, lets split their familys apart,
They split their own families apart. Nothing prevents the whole family from returning to where they came from.
oswaldo says:
2, lets destroy their econmy by doing back ground checks,
Lets make them lose their morgages and lets pay for their 40,00 debt.
Let the government and rich families that run Mexico reform their economy so the USA doesn't have to be their safety valve
oswaldo says:
3, we then put them in gas chambers and toss their remains in the dessert.
Tempting, but build the wall and keep the military on the border to keep illegals out. (Just like Mexico does on its southern border.)
oswaldo says:
4, we don't have to worry now, our white's children is save now.
In fact the children in the USA and would be more safe. The age of consent in Mexico is between 12 and 14 years old depending on the state. Illegals don't feel they did anything wrong when they are arrested for child molestation.
Our Government, past & present, Republican & Democrat, have allowed the invasion of 20 to 40 million criminals and uneducated peons which is the largest invasion of any Nation, at any time, by any means & in direct violation of Article IV, Section IV of our Constitution.
This refusal to abide by our Constitution or enforce our Immigration Laws should be classified as Treason of the most foul kind, & as grounds for impeachment & trials for Treason!
Not only have they allowed the invasion, they force American tax payers to pay Billions on Billions of dollars to provide Welfare, Prison cells, Educate the invaders numerous children, and free medical care , at the same time the invading horde break numerous laws and massive document fraud, & are destroying ourschools, hospitals, communities, culture and standard of living while Robbing, Raping, Killing & Assaulting American Citizens! WAKE UP!
This will continue unless Americans remove "representatives"(that's a joke) like Gabriella Giffords who must have been a fan of Janet Napolitano on border issues. These Democrats are ALL one and the SAME. Remove her if you care.
Immigration Reform = Detect, Detain, Deport.
Right now our country does not NEED immigrants. We need jobs for 15 million unemployed Americans. The U.S. has a front door. Those who come here illegally, steal our IDs and ignore our laws have already demonstrated they lack the honesty and decency to ever become American citizens.
Controlling immigration is not only the moral thing to do; it is mandated by our Constitution. Our government must constitutionally ensure the financial security of its citizens and protect our borders from invasion. Another amnesty is off the table because We The People refuse--absolutely refuse, to be sold on another path to citizenship for illegal aliens. We as Americans must show illegal alien pandering politicians what it is to be unemployed, at their next re-election.
Right in the middle of writing my comment my computer started acting strange and I lost my comment!! It was not prasing Obozo and his cronies so I can only wonder if it happened on purpose??!! Maybe big brother is watching!!!
I am going to try again! If Obozo shoves Amnesty down the throats of the American Citizens there will be a Revolution!! The Citizens are sick and tired of the Government doing nothing about illegal immigration and the little they do is to little to late!! Homeland Security has taken the teeth out of the laws that they want their people to enforce!! Obozo has his own agenda that he is not telling us about and if you don't believe that just take a hard look at his Green jobs Czar with his criminal background and ties to militant groups!! How does someone with a criminal background get appointed to a sensitive position that probably requires security clearance??!! Obozo pulled another fast one!! ATTRITION THROUGH ENFORCEMENT NOT AMNESTY !!!
Klimax,AMNESTY IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW. It's just like the slow boiling frog concept. The border is WIDE OPEN, illegal immigration is not being enforced, when enough Mexican foreign national illegals are here, they will do whatever they please. We have to be honest as to what's happening. Most Americans don't give a rats ass.

On Sunday, April 19, 2009, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary JANET NAPOLITANO went on CNN’s “State of the Union” and proclaimed that crossing the border is NOT a crime.

If Americans are as livid about "illegal aliens" as many of the folks posting here would have us believe...why did they elect a President who ran on a platform of "comprehensive immigration reform" (aka amnesty)?
Better yet, if REPUBLICANS are as livid about "illegal aliens" as these nutbars would us believe, why did THEY nominate John McCain as their standard bearer given that he too ran on a platform of "comprehensive immigration reform" (aka amnesty)?
Gee, if Americans are as angry as these people say; why wasn't Tom Tancredo a slam dunk in the run for US President? Tancredo couldn't even win the GOP nomination, let alone the US Presidency!
Why did GOP voters not nominate Duncan Hunter, Fred Thompson, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney, Ron Paul or any of the other immigration flame throwers?
Instead, they nominated JOHN McCAIN...but thats because republicans are so upset about "illegal aliens"...right?
I have a question, what's the poorest nation on earth? Answer, The United States of America! We are the only nation on earth that has a deficit of 10 TRILLION dollars and growing. On top of that figure, we have an unfunded obligation exceeding 62 trillion. That pretty much makes the US the poorest nation on earth! To add insult to injury, the US continues to give away more than 100 BILLION in foreign aid to more than 150 countries! What is wrong with the US government? There are more than 35 million Americans going hungry everyday. There are more than 15 million Americans that can't find work! Millions of our fellow citizens are losing their homes. ENOUGH! We have the best government money can buy and the American people don't have a lobbyist to speak for them. If this government doesn't stop pandering to illegal aliens, lobbyists, special interests and foreign governments, we may indeed see another American revolution. WAKE UP AMERICA!
KB: I'd like to point out that Obama and McCain winning their party's nomination doesn't mean the American people chose them. Our system for electing a president is manipulated and flawed. The Democrats and Republicans are in cahoots as far as protecting the 2 party system. By having the first primaries in Iowa and New Hampshire, it's easy to manipulate these small markets. As for candidates that are against illegal immigration, you'll find most Americans are indeed against this invasion of foreign nationals bankrupting our nation. If you think it was difficult to advocate amnesty for illegal aliens in '07, just wait until they try and force it thru this time. There are more than 15 million Americans out of work with nothing but time on their hands. How do you think they feel about illegal aliens working while they can't find a job? Our government continues to import 1.5 million foreign workers under the visa program as well. There are traitors in our government. WAKE UP AMERICA!
HB, American elections are rigged. The American citzienry has shown in hnndreds of polls that they want a stop to illegal immigration into their nation. No informed American gives a rats ass what these corrupt politicians do. You may have noticed the rage at the Town Hall Meetings, where both Republicans and Democrats showed up to prove what I said about their not carrying about phony politicians who betray them daily. Attention will soon be turned on these politicians treason in keeping the border with narco state open.
Dear Mr Gibson,
You conclude with:
"I would encourage the good people in Arizona who still care about U.S. sovereignty to continue draining those tanks..."
Migrants who reach those empty tanks may then die of dehydration, etc. Therefore, are you encouraging Americans to commit murder by attrition? How very American of you, sir!
Ty glupi psie. God give land to all people. Why you think that you have more right to have it. Because your ancestors take it from Native American. You are just stupid. What happend if main desaster throw you and Your family on your way to Mexico we will see if you will be happy without water. Go home and pray. You idiot.
