On Tuesday night, a group of 40 Episcopal bishops from around the country attended a weekly vigil in Douglas, AZ, held for those who have died trying to cross illegally into the U.S. The advocacy group known as Frontera de Cristo has been conducting the vigils along the Pan-American Highway since 2000. The group placed crosses on the sidewalk and spoke the names of those who died attempting the illegal crossing. The bishops are in Arizona for a meeting of the House of Bishops of the Episcopal Church, and have been visiting with illegal aliens and listening to their stories of hardship. Rev. Kirk Smith, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Arizona, told the Tucson Daily: “It's been a great experience so far, a great eye-opener so far. The most moving thing has been to have some personal contact with the people who are affected.” Smith continued: “We talked to some people who had been caught this morning and sent back.” While the bishops have no problem expressing sorrow for those who have so little respect for this country that their first act here—is to enter illegally, they seem to have no such concern for the thousands of American citizens who have been killed by illegal aliens. Why don’t the bishops visit the family of murdered rancher Rob Krentz, whose killer was tracked back to the Mexican border? Or, perhaps they would like to spend some time with the family of 3-year-old Marten Kudlis, who was killed by an illegal alien with a lengthy arrest record, as he sat in a Denver-area ice cream shop with his parents. Or, they could travel to Virginia Beach to offer their support to the Kunhardt and Tranchant families, who both lost teenage daughters to a drunk-driving illegal alien. I doubt though, that any of the bishops have the courage to face these grieving families...doing so, may force them reconsider their open-borders position.

Their prejudices (and willful ignorance) would probably make it impossible for them to have any sympathy for the victims of the illegals.
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end. He (Gordon Duff) also implies that forcibly removing Obama, a Constitution-hating, on-the-down-low, crackhead Communist, is an attack on America, Mom, and apple pie. I swear these military people are worse than useless. Just look around at the condition of the country and tell me if they have fulfilled their oaths to protect the nation from all enemies foreign and domestic. deleted
The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.
The TWO LARGEST ENABLERS of illegal alien immigration from Mexico are #1 - Organized Religion and #2 - Public Education
U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4: NO BORDERS + NO LAWS = NO COUNTRY
I doubt though, that any of the bishops have the courage to face these grieving families...doing so, may force them reconsider their open-borders position.
