“Small Riot” Breaks Out in Arizona Over Tough Immigration Bill

Posted on by

Don’t worry, MyFoxPhoenix says it was only a “small riot’ so it’s nothing to be concerned about:

Witnesses say a group protesting against SB1070 began to fight with a man who was for the controversial immigration bill.

Police tried escorting that man away from the scene, fearing for his safety, when they too came under attack by people throwing items, including water bottles.

A young man was arrested during that melee.

Things calmed down moments later, but riot Police remained at the capital to maintain some sort of order.

See? No big deal. Cops were run off by a mob, that’s all. Here’s video:

Arizona is now one of the crime capitals of the world largely due to an influx of immigrants who have no respect for America or American law, which is a result of neo-Marxist ideology that is fed to them on both sides of the border. In this article about the immigration bill they interview a 13-year-old who says this:

“It’s going to change our lives,” said Emilio Almodovar, a 13-year-old American citizen from Phoenix. “We can’t walk to school any more. We can’t be in the streets anymore without the pigs thinking we’re illegal immigrants.”

Pigs. Isn’t that what all the commies in the 60s called cops? Is it any wonder Arizona has lost control of much of its territory when we’re allowing children to embrace the attitudes that have made Mexico’s border towns hell on earth?

Update: More footage of the crowd attacking one lone biker and the several cops surrounding him. You can see the people actually hitting the cops with various objects. But they want our sympathy?

This is Why Gun Ownership is Important

I post this story, via Xavier’s Thoughts, because it illustrates not only the use of a firearm in a self-defense situation but the reality of violent crime. Had this old man, who is crippled and just recently widowed, not have been armed he’d be dead. Gun control proponents think that’s acceptable, I do not:

Be not afraid of any man no matter what his size; when danger threatens, call on me, and I will equalize.

A.G. Eric Holder Protecting MS-13 Members Who Murdered Maryland Man

Posted on by

This is just outrageous. It goes beyond the hug-a-thug justice we expect from liberals and can only have sinister motives. MS-13 is one of the most violent and dangerous criminal gangs in the world and they are known to participate in racially motivated attacks on Black Americans and hate crimes again White Americans.

Holder doesn’t think this is something to be concerned with. From JudicalWatch:

Three illegal immigrant gang members who faced the death penalty for murdering a Maryland man last summer have been spared by the nation’s chief law enforcement officer who has ordered prosecutors not to seek the maximum punishment.

Attorney General Eric Holder intervened on behalf of the El Salvadoran gangbangers by directing federal prosecutors handling their conspiracy and murder case to rule out the death penalty, according to a Virginia-based news web site that broke the story this week. The three illegal immigrants are members of a notoriously violent street gang called Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) that has spread throughout the country like the plague.

Last summer they robbed and murdered a man in Virginia as part of a conspiracy to extort money from his prostitution business. A few months later the illegal alien gang members were indicted with federal racketeering and murder. Federal prosecutors indicated that they would seek the death penalty and a court-appointed attorney for one of the defendants was dismissed because he lacked the proper certification for trying a death penalty case.

Just a few weeks ago, defense attorneys prepared jury questionnaires that alluded to the death penalty and eliminated jurors who might discriminate against Latinos. But as the May trial approaches, Holder stepped in and ruled out the death penalty. He refuses to explain the last-minute order claiming that that the attorney general’s decision-making process and final decision involving the death penalty is confidential.

Court documents cited in the news report say that Holder “authorized and directed” the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Neal McBride, “not to seek the death penalty” against the illegal immigrants. McBride subsequently filed a corresponding court document (Government’s Notice of Intent Not to Seek the Death Penalty) making it official.

What could possibly motivate this interference in the case? This is disgusting and will only signal to MS-13 that we are going to go easy on them which will not be good for the Americans who Holder is supposed to be protecting. So why is he doing it?

All Police Radios in Washington D.C. Down?

Posted on by

Twitter was abuzz with this little factoid and sure enough it looks like police in D.C. are experiencing large scale communications outages:

WASHINGTON, D.C. – D.C. Police sources tell FOX 5 that radio communications are down citywide in the District, and police officers on the street have no way to receive or respond to calls via radio.

Sources tell FOX 5 that communication went down sometime around 7:15 p.m. on Monday night. That source also told FOX 5’s Will Thomas that officers in the field have no way to respond to calls from dispatch via radio.

Some officers were returning to headquarters, and some were being asked to communicate by cell phone while the outage is investigated and repaired. The D.C. Office of Unified Communication is working on the issue, but there’s no word what caused it.

Sources tell FOX 5 that it’s possible the issue is related to a generator problem at the McMillan Drive facility.

By 10 p.m. Monday, radios were still down, but sources said the in-car computers used by officers were beginning to come back up.

[…]

A police union spokesperson told FOX 5 this may not be the first time the radio system has gone down in the last month.

Fire Department communications was also disrupted but they were able to respond to 911 calls via a backup system.
