Our upside down world

Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonzo Compean turned themselves in to go to jail today for failure to report and do proper paperwork. Barring a pardon, they will be in jail for 11 and 12 years respectively.

You see, apparently pardon's are only given to the criminals, not the defenders.

Border Patrol officers Ramos and Compean caught Osvaldo Aldrete Davila smuggling 100 lbs of pot across the Mexican border into the U.S. When he broke free of their grasp and ran, the officers shot him in the ass. Our drug smuggling/illegal immigrant friend Davila, worked his way back across the border, and told his mommy what happened.

Davila's mommy knew someone on the U.S. Border patrol staff, and she made a complaint. It turns out the officers feared prosecution for the incident, so they failed to report it. They were recently convicted of hiding the incident, and today they went to prison - many inmates of whom are people these two officers were a part of placing them in the prison as well.

Davila? He testified for the U. S. government, and was granted full immunity from prosecution. The illegal immigrant/drug smuggler was granted full immunity. Sorry, I had to say that twice.

So Davila went back to Mexico, lesson learned, and lived happily ever after...right? Uuuuuuummmm....not so much.

He was busted 40 days after the incident - AGAIN smuggling over $1 million in pot across the border, and was pardoned by the same people who gave him immunity from the first felonious activity. Meanwhile, the border guards are in prison.

Whew!! Justice was served and I feel a lot safer now!
