SDMM Calls for Immediate Deployment of National Gurad to our Southern Border.
San Diego, CA - Due to the senseless murder of a life-long rancher in Arizona last Saturday by a suspected Mexican drug smuggler, and the growing violence all along our border with Mexico, The San Diego Minutemen are demanding the immediate redeployment of armed National Guard troops to our Southern Border in all four border states.
We call on the Obama Administration and all four border Governors to take immediate action to secure our southern border from the armed and dangerous Mexican smugglers and cartel members who cross into America daily and threaten and kill our innocent citizens.
The execution of Rob Krentz, 58, on his large family ranch over 10 miles north of the border in Southeast Arizona highlights the growing drug war spilling over from Mexico. Border Patrol and local LE have lost control of our border region along much of the 2000 mile border. Our border residents and ranchers are being terrorized daily by these armed and dangerous foreign insurgents and criminals.
"Our border communities have been overrun with dangerous criminals from Mexico for many years now and its getting worse. All we ever get from Washington is lip service. How many Americans must die before the politicians actually take action to protect our citizens?", said Minuteman border activist Ken Lester of San Diego.
The U.S. Government pandering to Mexico and Mexican citizens with talk of free healthcare and amnesty for 20 million illegal trespassers stops today. Such promises have created a stampede into America of unknown foreign citizens with devastating results. Immediate action must be taken to regain control of our southern territory.
The blood of Rob Krentz, his dog, and any other Americans harmed by foreign criminals or terrorists operating on our soil is now on the hands of President Obama, Secretary Napolitano, and Congress for failing to secure our border with a secure double fence and adequate numbers of border guards.
