I despise the United States Border Patrol. One-hundred miles from the U.S. Border, the entire U.S. border, they are a law unto themselves, in what the ACLU refers to as a “constitution free zone,” that encircles the entire contiguous United States.They regularly treat U.S. citizens with contempt. This, despite the…

Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s the Rodney Dangerfield of Sand Land politics these days. He just don’t get no respect. Thing is, in his case, he deserves no respect, whereas Dangerfield’s self-pity was a shtick. People actually liked him. They despise Joe. At least those with half a brain or more.Because of this,…
Let’s be honest, there are a lot of nativists out there who are caressing their hands at the prospect that an Arizona cop might soon be killed by an illegal alien.What better way to attack both the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent 5-3 decision tossing three sections of Senate Bill 1070,…
