News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

The Minuteman Civil Defense Corps has reported spotting more than 725 illegal immigrants crossing the Arizona-Mexico border in the past two weeks.

"They're actually swarming through there," said Al Garza, the group's executive director.

The Minutemen have been patrolling the border since the beginning of the month.

Garza said Minuteman volunteers operating in Altar Valley have called the U.S. Border Patrol to report sightings of 728 illegal immigrants. He said 234 of those spotted were later apprehended.
