It’s not often that Jim Gilchrist and I agree because of our philosophical differences, but this time we are both thinking along the same lines. The refusal of authorities to release any information concerning the suspects allegedly in custody for the murder (not assassination Jim) of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry have many of us believing it was possibly American citizens responsible, despite the fact that the nativists prefer to blame everything on undocumented immigrants.

This hasn’t happened in this case, leading most of us to believe that the murderers of Agent MORE
