“My job in psy-ops is to play with people’s heads, to get the enemy to behave the way we want them to behave,” says Lt. Colonel Michael Holmes, the leader of the IO unit, who received an official reprimand after bucking orders. “I’m prohibited from doing that to our own people. When you ask me to try to use these skills on senators and congressman, you’re crossing a line.”

(Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua) More than 7,000 murders in Ciudad Juárez over the past three years attributed to the drug war, have left nearly 8,500 children orphaned, according to an official source for the state of Chihuahua.

To support these children, the government of Chihuahua has created a trust fund to benefit those minors under 14 years old.

Ciudad Juarez is considered the most violent city in Mexico with 3,100 murders in 2010. So far this year, there have been 350 people killed, according to the Attorney General.

MEXICO CITY- Mexican soldiers have arrested an alleged Zetas drug cartel member who allegedly confessed to killing a U.S. immigration agent, but said the attack was a case of mistaken identity.

Suspect Julian Zapata Espinoza – known by the nickname “El Piolin,” or Tweety Bird, apparently because of his short stature – told soldiers that a group of gunmen from the Zetas mistook the officer’s vehicle for one used by a rival gang.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent Jaime Zapata was shot to death and fellow agent Victor Avila was wounded while driving on a highway near the northern city of San Luis Potosi on Feb. 15.

“Whether it was the Columbine tragedy, or the Virginia Tech massacre, gun-grabbers never hesitate to blame law-abiding Second Amendment supporters for the actions of bloodthirsty lunatics and criminals.

And when the pressure is on, weak-kneed Republicans and so-called “blue dog” Democrats who mouthed pro-gun rhetoric in their campaigns seem all too willing to just “fall in line.”

Supposedly “pro-gun” Republicans like former Vice President Dick Cheney, U.S. Senator Richard Luger (IN) and House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King (NY) have all joined in on the anti-gun hysteria, as well.

You and I can’t let that happen again. Just consider what is at stake, including:

* A new so-called “Assaults Weapon Ban” — targeting ALL semi-automatic rifles and shotguns — which, unlike the Clinton ban, will NEVER expire;

* An outright BAN on “high capacity” magazines — banning the sale and manufacture of magazines holding more than just a handful of rounds;

* A National Concealed-Carry “Standard” — designed to make it even more difficult for law-abiding citizens to carry a gun to protect themselves and their families from murderers like Jared Loughner;

* Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s “Catch All Gun Control Scheme” — to create a national “cannot buy registry,” allowing citizens to be stripped of their Second Amendment rights on a Justice Department whim and effectively banning all private gun sales.”
