Shocking News! PROOF - Racist Border Vigilante Groups Murder Border Crossers!



MM Reports: Hacked Documents Reveal Border Vigilante Activity
Reports of two previously unknown border vigilante operations, including one that apparently hires U.S. Marines as paid mercenaries, have surfaced in internal documents from the Arizona Department of Public Safety stolen and released last week by the hacker collective LulzSec.

One of the documents, a report from the interagency HIDTA (High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area) Investigative Support Center, reveals that in October 2008, U.S. Border Patrol agents encountered two vigilantes armed with pistols and at least one M4 assault rifle, wearing desert camouflage uniforms.

The men (vigilantes) informed the Border Patrol agents that they were members of Blue Lights, a border watch group. "They stated they were not members of the Minutemen, but paid contract employees who 'get the job done' and 'were not just volunteers,'" according to the HIDTA report. "They possessed valid United States Marine Corps identification cards."

(As the Southern Poverty Law Center reported in 2006, violent right-wing extremist groups in recent years have stepped up their wartime recruiting of active duty and recently discharged members of the U.S. military.)

According to the HIDTA report, the Marines said their operation was based at the Caballo Loco Ranch, a remote RV park in the high Sonoran Desert of southern Arizona. It has repeatedly served as the base camp or headquarters for Minuteman Civil Defense Corps and Patriots' Border Alliance vigilante operations since 2007.

Once the largest border vigilante organization in the country, the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, or MCDC, officially disbanded in March 2010 after being effectively dormant for about a year. More extreme groups seem to be filling the void.

Aggressive border vigilante operations led by neo-Nazi J.T. Ready following the dissolution of MCDC have been reported in the media. But the hacked Arizona documents include a U.S. Department of Homeland Security report detailing efforts by a more obscure vigilante group called A Concerned Citizen to "bring back the Minutemen lines."

One operation by A Concerned Citizen was being planned last spring "in support of Governor Jane Brewer's signing of SB1070 into law and at the opposition of the media's coverage of the [pro-immigrant] protests in Phoenix," according to the DHS report.

It noted that A Concerned Citizen members were planning to deliberately camp near well-known drug and human smuggling "load up points" and that organizers were stressing the danger involved along with the need for participants to be prepared to defend themselves.

"The tone of this information is quite unlike that from the MCDC Locked and Loaded Operation," reads a comment in the report from DHS intelligence analysts. "If this new operation happens, there could be potential for human rights violations and a possibility of violence between armed civilians and smugglers or with law enforcement."

The Russian dissident poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko once wrote: "When truth is replaced by silence, the silence is a lie" -

I have observed that if a Latino driver kills someone while drunk, then Fox News and the Right Wing make a Big Scandal and devote many hours of Prime Time to that super important event.



And to stir hatred against the "lower race". Also Rush Limbaugh and the Radio Shock Jocks spit fire, fear and hate.

But if a Latino Child ( Brisenia Flores and her Father Raul ) are brutally killed in a home Invasion of the brutal vigilantes that belong to the Minuteman American Defense ( MAD ) then there is only SILENCE, not only in the right wing broadcasters but in almost every TV station and newspaper.

Only a small proportion of the Liberal Media announces what is VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.

Hate Crime against Minorities ( Blacks, Asians and Native American Indians included ) occurs every year, but the mainstream media makes a big effort of SILENCE !

Don't forget the BPAUX Border Patrol auxiliary vigilante groups. Have you investigated them? They hunt migrants at the border and pretend to be the border patrol.
