DEA arrests 15 in raid of Ore. meth 'super lab' 12:07 PM PDT on Wednesday, June 1, 2005 By KGW and AP Staff BROWNSVILLE, Ore. -- Federal investigators late Tuesday announced the arrests of 15 people linked to what they're calling a methamphetamine "super lab" in the Salem area. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration said the lab located in a small, unassuming mobile home north of Brownsville in Linn County was capable of producing more than 90 pounds of meth in under three days time -- enough to intoxicate the entire adult population of Portland. Ninety pounds of pure meth would make 400,000 doses. If cut to street purity of 50 percent, it would make 800,000 doses. Agents ...

Border Patrol investigation over kickbacks is criticized Susan Carroll Republic Tucson Bureau Jun. 1, 2005 12:00 AM TUCSON - The U.S. Office of Special Counsel on Tuesday criticized the U.S. Border Patrol's investigations into allegations that agents in Arizona ran an extensive kickback scheme, calling a series of inquiries "deficient." The Border Patrol's investigations stemmed from whistle-blower complaints that agents temporarily stationed in the border city of Douglas submitted doctored receipts for reimbursement or made kickback deals with landlords from January 2000 to April 2002. Rep. Jim Kolbe, R-Ariz., estimated in 2003 that the fraud, investigated by the Office of ...

Hispanics struggle with state testing scores By The Associated Press INDEPENDENCE — Hispanic students at Central High School take the same classes their non-Hispanic classmates do. But there, the similarity seems to end. Of 200 Hispanic students, just 5 percent passed annual statewide tests last year, the raw statistics show. The situation is as bad — or worse — across Oregon. All but about 35 of the 278 secondary schools failed to teach their Hispanic students up to federal standards in reading and math. "You can't deny the numbers," said State Schools Superintendent Susan Castillo. "It's awful. The gap at the high school level is very serious.'' The ...

CALDWELL, Idaho - To hear people who call into Idaho's leading conservative talk radio station, Robert Vasquez is a hero: one of the few politicians to tell it straight. Mr. Vasquez, 55, a Republican county commissioner and Mexican-American in a region where Latinos are ascendant, has been on a crusade against illegal immigration - what he calls "an imminent invasion" from south of the border. Mr. Vasquez has tried to get Canyon County declared a disaster area because of the strain from illegal immigrants. He has also sent a bill to the Mexican government for more than $2 million; that is the cost, he said, of Mexicans who are in the county illegally. Mr. Vasquez says the ...

SAN DIEGO - Newton’s third law of physics says that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, and it’s being played out in violent fashion along the nation’s southwest border.Assaults against U.S. Border Patrol agents along a 260-mile stretch of the Arizona/Mexico border known as the Tucson sector, a desolate expanse of territory that is the nation’s major artery for illegal immigration, are on a record clip. In the first eight months of fiscal year 2005 there have been 163 recorded acts of violence against border agents compared with 118 for all of fiscal year 2004, according to the U.S. Border Patrol. Border patrol officials in other sectors contacted ...

Fla. Child-Rape Suspect in U.S. Illegally WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. The California Senate has voted to formally apologize for the deportation of Mexican-American citizens between 1929 and 1944. The expulsions were part of a program designed to create jobs for citizens during the Depression. About two (m) million Hispanics -- including 400-thousand Californians -- were sent to Mexico during that period. The program was devised by the Hoover administration to get rid of illegal immigrants and open up jobs. But a state senator says most of the people deported were American citizens or legal immigrants. The Senate passed the measure 27-to-five, sending it to the Assembly. Meanwhile, a state Senate committee approved a separate bill to ...

Nazis, racists join Minuteman Project DOUGLAS, Ariz. | April 22, 2005 -- For months, Jim Gilchrist promised that his Minuteman Project would peacefully observe the Arizona border as a protest against illegal immigration. Volunteers — he said there would be 1,300 of them — would be carefully screened, with FBI help, to keep out white supremacists and racists. No one would be allowed to bear guns except those who had permits to carry concealed weapons. Gilchrist said that critics who called his group "vigilantes" — naysayers who included President Bush — were absolutely wrong about his volunteers. Indeed, Gilchrist told USA Today, these men and women sought ...

A grand jury will decide whether the 17-year-old will be tried as an adult. LAKE WORTH — Milagro Cunningham thought he was a killer Sunday morning, police say. Only his carelessness proved him wrong. From the home of the latest woman to give him shelter, the teen took an 8-year-old girl out of bed early Sunday and led her to a nearby landfill. There, police say, he sexually attacked her, choked her and left her for dead in a trash bin, buried under a pile of rocks. The 17-year-old confessed he intended to strangle her, to bury the shame of what he had done, according to court records. Only she wasn't quite dead when police unearthed her hours later.

Immigration excuses need some work By David Harsanyi Denver Post Columnist It's confusing. Did you know some consider it racist to oppose illegal immigration but perfectly reasonable to support a system that casts illegal Mexican immigrants in the most menial and undesirable jobs? The enlightened, it would seem, need someone to wash the dishes when they are done with their seared ahi and pinot noir in the finest Cherry Creek bistros. Makes you wonder, though: Who are the bigots here? Speaking of bigots, Mexican President Vicente Fox says these illegals do jobs "that not even blacks want to do." Odious on its face, it gives you a taste of what El Presidente thinks of his ...

Momentum is building to transfer federal lands in New Mexico to the heirs of Spanish and Mexican land grants. Descendants of families who received government grants of land before New Mexico was annexed to the United States say that's the only way to correct injustices caused when their ancestors lost control of some of their properties. While the prospect of fencing off forests and streams now open to the public riles many who aren't land-grant heirs, Gov. Bill Richardson and the New Mexico Legislature are urging Congress to transfer lands from the U.S. Forest Service and U.S. Bureau of Land Management to land-grant heirs. Spokesmen for U.S. Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., and other members ...

The U.S.-Mexico border is becoming more violent.

You'll be shocked to learn where the commandos were trained. The memo from the Justice Department warns that Mexican commandos were trained by U.S. forces, but switched sides. They are now using their deadly skills to work for the drug cartels. They were elite forces trained by the U.S. Army at Fort Benning, Georgia to battle against the powerful drug cartels. They're known as "los zetas," but a memo from the Justice Department to police agencies in the southwest warns ...
