Border Patrol Attacked, Bring Out The Guard

PHOENIX - Minuteman Project founders Chris Simcox and Jim Gilchrist will speak at a "Secure our Borders" rally this morning at the state Capitol in Phoenix.

Rally speakers, including Rep. Russell Pearce, R-Mesa, and congressional candidate Randy Graf, are expected to call for the deployment of the National Guard along the border. Simcox heads the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps.

This would be a good thing. Two Border Patrol agents were shot while patrolling smuggling trails near Nogales last Thursday night. Fortunately both were in stable condition. The assaults on agents are climbing, 195 since October. It's time to lower the boom.
