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.

Anti-illegal-immigration activist Roy Warden has sued the city and the Tucson Police Department for $10 million in damages, contending they violated his right to free speech.

The 21-page lawsuit lists Mayor Bob Walkup, Police Chief Richard Miranda and more than 100 other named and unnamed public officials who Warden contends are conspiring to hire and protect illegal border crossers. The suit outlines a number of instances over the last year and a half when Warden has been arrested, cited or warned because of various protests and demonstrations.

He also contends that immigrant-rights groups such as Coalición de Derechos Humanos are working toward the "violent overthrow of the United States government."
