WASHINGTON – Congressmen concerned about the convictions and stiff prison sentences of two Border Patrol agents who injured a Mexican drug dealer they were pursuing say Homeland Security officials told them the pair were "out to shoot Mexicans."
The
White House and federal officials have been getting heat for offering
the drug dealer immunity to testify against the two lawmen — Ignacio
Ramos and Jose Compean – both of whom are Mexican-Americans.

The agents were convicted in March of shooting admitted drug smuggler Osbaldo Aldrete-Davila in the buttocks as he ran away from them near the Rio Grande River in February 2005. Ramos and Compean were sentenced last week to 11 and 12 years, respectively.
Texas Republicans Rep. Ted Poe, Rep. John Culberson, Kenny Marchant and Michael McCaul met with unnamed officials of the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Inspector General last month. They were promised more evidence against the two officers would be offered after the sentencing, which took place last week.
Some members of Congress, as well as National Border Patrol Council President T.J. Bonner, now say it's time for the officials to provide the proof they promised.
Aldrete-Davila, a Mexican, is now suing the Border Patrol for $5 million for his injury and violation of his rights.
A congressional hearing on the case is being planned for Nov. 13.
The rest of the story. 
I wonder if I could sue Mexico, Washington, and the Border Patrol for infringing on my right to live in a sovereign American nation?
You have no right to that. On the otherhand, if you were a ethnic-minority-spanish speaking-lesbian, then.......
