As I previously reported, Jeff Schwilk and his pistol carrying cabelleros patrolled the desert packing heat for his "Gun Totin Border Event" on June 26 - 27 at Campo Minuteman.
Those in attendance included the usual cast of racist wackos including: Jeff Schwilk - SDMM Leader Vincent Burke - Mountain Minutemen Chelene Nightingale Dan Porcupile - Chelene's buddy, Mountain MM and BPAUX member Barbara Coe - CCIR ("Lock & Load") Ken Dreger - head of BPAUX & his band of wanna-be BPs
In his email to his invitees, Schwilk said, "Legal guns are allowed on the border and recommended if you are staying after dark. Your gun can be loaded on the border." I wonder if they used them. I wonder if they followed Barbara Coe's advice at the Arizona Rising Rally on June 5 to "Lock and Load."
At 5:00 am on Friday, June 12, five undocumented migrants who had crossed into the United States and were walking through the canyon near Rio Rico, AZ., were shot at with a high powered rifle by two unidentified white males wearing camouflage clothing. "The victims claimed no demands were made. They were just walking and fired upon,” said Sheriff Antonio Estrada. Estrada said when the group ran away from the shooters, one of the men, Manuel Esquer Gomez, 45, from Nogales, Sonora sustained a gunshot wound to the left forearm. As the group continued to run, the men stumbled upon skeletal remains of what they thought were two people.
Deputies from the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office, along with a U.S. Border Patrol special response team and air support, responded and found the skeletal remains of one man. Documents found on the man identified him as Alberto Donato Lopez, 40, from Puebla, Mexico. Lopez’s body was taken to the Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office in Tucson to determine the cause of death.
“It is unknown at this time if the deceased was killed or died of natural causes,” Estrada said. “There’s always a concern that these people could possibly be victims of violence.” Estrada said the Border Patrol tracked footprints from the scene of the shooting, but no suspects were found. “At this point we don’t know who they are,” said Estrada. “It’s perturbing to hear of people with high-powered rifles and camouflage. It raises some real red flags.”
This is the second reported shooting attack on migrants since Barbara Coe rallied the crowd at the June 5 Phoenix Rising rally to "Lock and Load."
Note: Unlike Sheriff Paul (Hollywood) Babeu, Sheriff Estrada is properly investigating this shooting as an attack on migrants and reporting the facts immediately to the public vs. refusing to release the 911 tape.

Two Latino men were shot, MURDERED in Pinal County! One of the murdered men was clutching his own blood-soaked Birth Certificate. It was smothered in his own blood! Local News reports are already spinning these deaths and saying, "We don't know who did it but it was probably drug smugglers!"
Open Request to the FBI/DOJ: Please come in and investigate so we find out who commited this crime!

Hello. My name is Dee. I live in Texas. I am an American. My ethnicity is Hispanic. Many would call me Mexican or Mexican American. Some call me a female, PRO-Immigration Reform - Ann Coulter.
My parents, their parents and theirs were all born in the USA.
My husband and I have been happily married for over 20 years. My husband is a big, Irish-American. We have two grown sons. We are happy and my family is doing well. I have been employed as a mid level manager at a very large, well known corporation for over 25 years, now recently retired.
In May, 2006, after the Immigration Marches, I started seeing the cable news channels talking very negatively about illegal immigration. I found many internet sites were talking negatively about legal and illegal immigration issues as well.
Since I do research on the job, I started conducting Immigration research on the web. I joined several Immigration websites and I researched others. I´ve learned so much about Immigration issues over the last year.
What you don´t see on the internet is the Mexican American perspective.
I am here to share my views with you.
