| Phew… Illegal immigrants shot to death in Arizona
by Arlen Parsa
Phew. It constantly amazes me that these minutemen racists are the ones who are always talking about how “we are a nation of laws.” And yet stuff like this happens:
TUCSON, Ariz. - Gunmen stopped a pickup truck full of illegal immigrants, shot several and took the rest captive Thursday in an attack that left at least three men dead and two people wounded, authorities said.
Authorities were trying to determine who the gunmen were.
The men shot three people, one fatally, along a known smuggling corridor near Tucson, then forced the six or seven other immigrants in the group to leave with them, Pima County sheriff’s officials said.
To be fair, it isn’t known if it was those minutemen idiots responsible for this particular incident, and the AP says it might be rival smugglers or something. But still, this is pretty horrible. If it is rival smugglers and not racist right-wingers responsible for this incident, will the latter say it serves the victims right for trying to come to America without papers? Hat tip, Paul the Spud.
