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.

A convicted felon attempting to illegally enter the United States was caught Thursday night by Border Patrol agents.

Ejinardo Barajas-Tinoco, 57, a Mexican national, was caught when he crossed the Rio Grande six miles east of the Zaragoza Bridge.

Agents confirmed that Barajas is a previously deported aggravated felon with three felony convictions for serious sex crimes in Pennsylvania. Records show that Barajas served seven years in prison for rape, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse and conspiracy.

And there are those who still believe that we don't need to secure our border? Congress passes legislation as a result of only a handful of people doing wrong yet there are those who say we should have a "open border". Try to buy a nasal decongestant recently? -mm
