But! But! They're the GOVERNMENT!!!! They can GO where they please; DO whatever they please. And we poor helpless, defenseless regular folk aren't ALLOWED to get in their way. [sob]
Whatever Happened to the sheriff of Whatcom County? Does he know he can interpose, and that he is the highest ranking law-enforcement agent in his county? I bet he is a federal stooge... or one of those lick-spittle characters.
What I want to know is why a podunk little county on the US/ Canadian border needs 300+ Border Patrol agents? Why the hell are they not in Texas or Arizona? You know where the real border problem is?
While I am NO fan of the government, I find it strange that on one hand when the illegals trespass and kill ranchers, we hear this big noise (and rightfully so) about border enforcement not doing it job.
I love this bit: Our agents are aware that the community would like a little more friendliness shown by agents," he says. "Hopefully agents are smiling and waving more frequently." But, he adds, waving is usually the last thing on your mind when you're dealing with drug-runners or illegal border crossers." Right and just how much of that is going on in the northern borders? I'd have to say that most if not dang near all of our drug problem..at least trafficking it, comes from SOUTH of the our southern border with Mexico thank you very fracking much.
Where are the local Sheriff's? They have jurisdiction, not the feds and their usurping ways. These property owners need to be contacting NARLO for pro bono help and legal guidance, as well as No Trespassing signs. Gov't *must* have a search warrant or RAS to be there. USC 18 S 241 & 242. And of course the tattered Constitution. In addition they should wear out the phone lines to congresscritters.
Only if the property owners push the JBT's back will they get any peace.
Our public servants say the following about a local resident,
"a genuine and pressing need for deterrence in this case because Groen seemed 'emboldened' by community support..." (Think about that statement. The local population must be terrorized into submission, lest they show indignation at their rights being trampled! Can you spell Lexington and Concord?)
and,
"Arguing for a 10-month sentence, they portrayed Groen as a man...who never showed remorse."
Groen never displayed remorse for his righteous indignation at having his life, property and peace disturbed? The NATURAL and NORMAL response of a free man must be suppressed and reconditioned so that he should feel remorseful for it!
I hope at least some of you Fed-Goons are paying attention. You might say in private conversation, "Well, I, for one, don't feel that way...", but your supervisors and policy makers do. You go out and willingly do their bidding, don't you? You are disturbing the peace and property of local residents, not because it is the RIGHT thing to do, but because your bosses say you can get away with it! Does that describe a "good guy"?
I'm sure that among the British soldiers who marched out to Lexington and Concord that fateful day in 1775, not every one thought that disturbing the rights, liberties and property of the local residents was a good idea. They still obeyed orders, and started an eight year war.
Fed-Goons, however are NOT under UCMJ authority. Any "really good guy" could, at any time, say "No, Boss! I'm not doin' it!"
I have lived up there. Drugs do come across the border. Head to the wilderness to the east and you can walk right across -- that is where the helicopter would be handy.
But a blackhawk running dark over this farmers property SHOULD be spotlighted. Who is to say it is one of the federal goons in that helicopter? Wouldn't the drug dealer or terroist also want to stay hidden and under radar? In fact there was a drug dealer in Canada using a helicopter to drop drugs into the wlderness where his US partners would hike it out. That happened one county to the East, in Okanogan county well after 9-11.
"Sometimes, if he sees the nearby remote camera aimed for long stretches straight at his home, DeHaan will call the hotline and give them some business: "Would you please get that damn camera off our house?"
Then, watching out the window, he and wife Cheryl will see it sheepishly sweep away in another direction."
How the hell does a camera sweep away "sheepishly?"
Seems like I recall two of Clancy's characters bringing down an airliner with a glorified flash gun. Just sayin'. Just about everybody has a camera with a strobe, right? Wonder what that would do to night vision goggles.

Wait! Some of us AREN'T totally defenseless.

Government at work.

I like how they take 'em out of state to try 'em. Get a jury that has no interest and understanding of the problem and walla walla, conviction!
Your tax dollars.....

Now they complain about the enforcement.
Talk about trying to have it both ways.

Gotta get my anti-materiel rifle sooner than I thought.
I wonder how muzzle flash looks in night vision goggles while flying a helicopter...
Good for Wayne Groen, spotlight and all. Spotlights are a bitch w/nightvision....make mental note!
His neighbor "might" have mowed down an antenea, or two....or three. Cracked me up.

Wouldn't it be fun to get a nice high-powered rifle with a cool scope and try taking out that camera spying on your house?
"Hubba-hubba! Looks like wifey is getting ready for the showe...WTF? Just lost the cam feed on the Jones place!"
