I feel so badly for the murder of Rob Krentz, at the same time it makes me
realize that all of us who live near this border are living in a dangerous
place. How many good innocent people will fall victim to these foreign
“TERRORISTS” before something is done? “Big Sis”, Janet Napolitano knows (and
knew the dangers on this border) when she was elevated to the position of
“Homeland Security Tsar” by Obama. We should demand her
resignation/termination! Her concerns aren’t for the safety of we who live
near the Mexican border. She’s taken funds that were allocated by Bush to
increase border security, and used those funds to increase security on the
Canadian border! Tsar Napolitano’s neglect, then I was horrified that Mrs.
Obama decides to visit Mexico so soon after Rob Krentz’s murder! I fear the
offer of “Amnesty”. We do not have enough muscle to repel the kind of
invasion that talk of Amnesty will create! Rob Krentz was murdered on his
property. His death cannot be ignored! Don’t forget!
For the family of Mr. Krentz, he is still in service of his fellow men. IF we
all stay focus his death will not be in vain. I pray that Mr. Krentz is
riding the beautiful trails provided by his Creator on another realm. Ms.
Giffords, Mr. McCain & Kyle make it a priority to see that our military are
put where they are needed along the Southern Border, fully armed and not
limited in orders to do the right & just thing. …Stopping illegal
immigrants from coming into our nation to carry out the tasks of drug cartel
familes. Obviously Robert Krentz was likely murdered by one of those cartels
….
I hope the death of Robert Krentz reminds us of the many other good people
around us, not that he is the last of a dying breed. We memorialize him by
becoming better neighbors, and stewards of the land, and better friends.
Thank you Mr. Krentz for what you did with your life. It is an inspiration
for us.
