Pardon Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean
One last time Mr. Bush, here’s your chance to redeem your self in the eyes of many. You have two Border Agents Compean and Ramos locked up in Federal Prison for doing what 90% of Americans wanted them to do. It’s in your power to commute their sentences and bring them back to their families. These men are hero’s to most Americans and are considered political prisoners by the Bush Administration. They should be released immediately and they should receive 100% of their back pay. Your Federal Prosecutor Johnny Sutton painted a picture of a poor itinerant Mexican just trying to make a living he met these two Border Agents who were on patrol in an area assigned to them to prevent smugglers and illegal aliens from entering the country. These two bullies shot this poor Mexican in cold blood in the rump as he tried to get away with his 700 pounds of dope. Come on Mr. Bush enough is enough. This Mexican who was shot was given immunity by Sutton to testify against these men and soon after was re arrested for smuggling even more dope into the country. If they had just aimed a little higher we would have less junk on our streets. These men have had to be placed in solitary confinement for their own protection as they are surrounded by Mexican drug smugglers in these prisons. It would be like you being placed in a prison with Al Qaeda prisoners who are sworn to kill you. What are you thinking Mr. President? What kind of deal with Mexico could you possibly have to keep these brave men incarcerated?
You have asked and received support from many of us for the war in Iraq. Actually we are embroiled in three wars Mr. President, Iraq, Afghanistan and the war on drugs which we are losing badly. We have documented cases of actual military incursions across our border where the Mexican Soldiers have guarded the escape of drug smugglers even firing their weapons in the process. All this and you let Sutton keep these two locked
up in a living heii. I voted for you twice and I must say I am totally disappointed in your last term. Most of us were so proud of the way you took charge after 9/11 but you have failed badly in all areas of the domestic front. You have personally set back the Conservative Movement at least ten years. Please Mr. President I beseech you, release these men immediately and remove all stigma from their record. They and their families have suffered greatly at hands of your administration.
Ask the people of this Nation who they would call a hero, Scooter Libby whom you pardoned immediately or Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean who are still locked up in prison. I guess if you’re not a Washington insider it just doesn’t count.
America it’s our fight now, we have do everything in our power to get these men released. They were doing their job trying to protect us when they were caught up in some insider event that I believe had nothing to do with what actually happened. The politics involved in this goes much deeper than just the wounding of a known drug smuggler. Cops shoot it out and wound drug dealers all the time and nothing ever is said about it, why then is this injustice still going on?
And that’s my Opinion,
Don

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH I THINK TIME HAS PROVING THAT IF YOU HAVE ENUF MONEY YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH MURDER,BUT IF YOU DO YOUR JOB AND CROSS PEOPLE OR INTERFEAR WITH THIER ILLEAGAL DIVIENDS THAT YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE OF LIBERTY OF THOSE WHO WERE REALY PROFITING FROM THE CONTRIBAND THAT WAS INTERRUPPTED .MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE FAMILY OF THE BORDER AGENTS THAT WAS IMPRISONED BY A COURRUPT COURT THAT THAT THINKS IT CAN HIDE IN THE SHADOWS OF THE SOUTHWEST.
You have two Border Agents Compean and Ramos locked up in Federal Prison for doing what 90% of Americans wanted them to do.
So 90% of Americans want law enforcement personnel lie about any shootings in their reports, and to destroy the evidence of their actions?
I don't think so.
Do we want the border secured? Absolutely. Do we want our law enforcement personnel to violate the laws they're sworn to uphold? Probably not.
If me or thee were to do the things Ramos and Compean did--submit false reports and remove evidence or otherwise alter the scene of the shooting--we'd get 20-to-life for attempted murder and obstruction of justice, no matter how legitimate the original shooting might have been.
