I am still reeling from the ugliness of the Shawna Forde drama.America's men and women who went to the borders and protested illegal immigration have always been a law abiding, decent people.

The always stated position of not being vigilantes was and has been a noted part of the movement meant to protect everyone. Observe and report only! Thats what we were told.

In abandoning that very principle Shawna Forde set the stage for the deaths of a young man, his daughter and three others...her alleged crew of two and herself.

Shocking beyond belief and tragic to its very end the case if properly tried
and concluded leaves us with a picture of a woman that decided to be hangman and jury to those she chose as the subjects of her brand of justice.

In all it can be safely said that Shawna Forde became a liability to the movement she entered into.

From her fiasco in Washington where claims were made that she had been shot by illegals to the sentencing in a Tucson courtroom where she was sentenced to die, Shawna's life appears to have been laden with tragedy.

Rather than lead it would have been wiser for her to follow those with a keener sense of what is right.

Brisenia Flores, the nine year old daughter of twenty-nine year old Raul Flores, according to testimony given, begged for her life just before she was shot in the face. Brisenia's face was torn in half leaving just enough to identify her. Brisenia died. That in itself makes me angry enough to want the death sentence for anyone involved in something so horrific.

Yet I am also bothered by the attitude of those who express delight over Forde's present situation. If indeed justice has been served why is there a need to gloat???

Are there going to be "Shawna jokes" authored by some in the anti-illegal immigration movement? Will Christians in this movement reach out to Shawna
or will they forsake her in a manner that separates them from Christ's teachings? I am sure that we will see a bit of everything.

In particular those who want to assure safety for themselves from government agencies and murderous individuals will resort to some final spitting on Shawna Forde. What better way to claim ones integrity?

Fast forward to the day that Shawna gets the needle in the arm. What will she be thinking? What will the vultures in the movement say?

As Shawna lays dieing in a prison and her last thoughts float through her concious mind before going dark hundreds of government officials will be dining, laughing, loving and enjoying the gift of life. Yet they are responsible for thousands of American deaths at the hands of illegal aliens.

They will be paid by us. They will be applauded by those Americans who do not acknowledge their treachery and murderous cunning.

No needle for them.....just some more champagne and good times.
