I mean, after all he could have been bringing something far worse into the country. .
Luis Miguel?

I thought he had been killed....nevertheless.....what about their actions make you believe that they deserved to be pardoned?
Weed is not dangerous, but it is illegal. Transporting it across international borders is illegal. See lerxst post (the one that you thanked) as to why they were defending themselves.
I don't think the marijuana is a big deal. I think it should be legalized anyway. I mean, after all he could have been bringing something far worse into the country. That being said, he obviously shouldn't have assaulted the federal officer, pointed an object at the federal officer or fled. I seriously can't believe the guy got immunity after all of that.
Being an unarmed "repeat offender drug smuggler" gives green light to a couple of lying vigilante thugs to shoot him in the back?
Wow....where have this country's values gone...when it is not only ok but deemed by some to be hero-ic to then lie and try to cover up thier illegal actions.
they did not break the law, they were railroaded. They believed the testimony of an illegal alien over the Law enforcement officers.
Yeah, that's why they got pardoned.Maybe you would too if you actually looked at the physical evidence that basically refuted the agents story.
Bush commutes sentences of former US border agents - Yahoo! News
Typical of his Presidency....Bush commutes the sentences of the border patrol agents who shot the man in the back.
Granted ... this man was a suspected drug dealer, nevertheless, he was unarmed and shot in the back and killed. Even worse, they lied and tried to cover up the killing.
What else would you expect from a DISNEYdude?wow did you get a bunch of this wrong.
The fact that you thought he was killed is enough to show conclusively that you really are ignorant on the details.
Many libbies supported the pardon including Rohm Emanuel, Obama's incoming Chief of Staff and our own Kay Baily Hutchinson.

Nonsense.You can claim this all you want,but you protect a drug dealing illegal alien smuggler, over 2 border patrol agents.
I am comfortable with my position. You are not even sure of the facts as you thought the guy was killed..... :lol:
You probably cheer every time the police shoot unarmed individuals in the back as well.
I will never understand why some people in this country believe that police don't have to follow the same laws as everyone else simply because they carry a badge.
That mindset is one of the most dangerous things that can happen in a free country.

To assume that would be foolish.
To assume this of me would also be foolish.
Want to build any more strawmen? :lol:
Why would it be foolish.....I think it characterizes many of your posts over the last year or two.
If its a "Strawman"....its only because you supplied the straw.

They weren't pardoned. Their sentences were commuted. Big difference.
But they should have been pardoned.
