The Border Rocks!

Oh My God.
Mexico is politely asking our brave border patrol agents to kindly stop protecting themselves from vicious attacks by illegal immigrants. Has it really come to this?

“Mexico is demanding that U.S. Border Patrol agents stop using tear gas to protect themselves against increased attacks as they try to keep illegal immigrants from entering the United States.”
It is much more effective to throw insults back at them, like “Hey impoverished job-seeker!” or, “You subject of an incredibly corrupt government system that will soon mirror the United States if we keep electing immoral bureaucrats with no spines and hellish morals!” or, my favorite, “Thanks to NAFTA, you will be throwing rocks at US in a couple years when we are trying to get our jobs back from down there!”
I just can’t get over the audacity of a tyrannically corrupt third world country (which regularly abuses its sovereigns and steals from their bankrupt subjects) lecturing us on civil liberties. How dare they? Well, it is simple. They watch us. They learn from the liberal left in this nation and Europe, that whenever you yell “Unfair!” that there are thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of people, all the media and scores of liberal judges who will turn justice on its ears for you. Yes, this poor lawbreaker was throwing a rock at an armed American citizen, and that American actually defended himself with restrained non-lethal force. Oh the inhumanity of it all!
"Launching tear gas does not contribute in any way to a climate of understanding and collaboration," the Foreign Ministry said in a statement issued late on Thursday.”
I suppose that criminals throwing rocks is more conducive to sweet, sweet relations? This Chamberlinesque approach is extremely common today globally, and especially in the emerging evangelical movement in America. When the church should grasp the moment of the emasculated times and be decisive, it is choosing to yield to the centuries proven failings of leftist pusillanimity and walk lockstep with not merely the enemies of America but the cross itself.
Our own president has proven that he is part of this backwards march by refusing to pardon the two border patrol agents recently sentenced (Jose Alonso Compean to 12 years and Ignacio Ramos to 11 years and one day) who bravely shot a drug smuggler in the ass as he fled comically back to Mexico. Instead of providing masculine leadership, he is slinking back to conciliatory acquiescence with the enemy, Mexico.
History has cast aside many so-called leaders (who tried to set such touchy-feely ovarian policy) as irrelevant and insignificant, and the current group of meandering eunuchs (who exacerbate these problems on both sides of the border) are eventually going to have to wake up and impose a grown up testicular solution. If not, then they too will be relegated to history’s dung pile of irrelevance and cowardice.
If we look to the actual Jesus, not the limp wristed tree hugger of the hip post-moderns, but the actual Messiah, we find that He did not seek to “create a climate of understanding and collaboration” with His enemies. He told them that they were open graves, dirty cups, hypocrites, thieves and vipers. He stood up with a thing called truth. Not an opinion he invited them to groove to, but the hard truth, blunt and absolute. He whipped them into submission when they turned the Temple into a Christian Bookstore and chased them away angrily. Angrily! No sign of an estrogenated conciliation party, no flag for a surrender treaty, not even concern for the environment; just plain and pure righteous fury at evil folks.
American leaders need to let Mexico know that they mean business. We will not tolerate attacks from any person, place or nation, and we are prepared to defend ourselves from any attacks, blatant or sublime. It is time for this nation to see less grey and more law and order. Defend our border. Free the unjustly imprisoned. Punish the guilty. Remain sovereign.
