Violent Right Wing Extremism - Arizona Minutemen Dressed as Police Officers Murder Father and Child

From the Seattle PI via TPM

An outspoken anti-immigration activist from Everett has been arrested in Arizona in connection to a deadly home invasion robbery.

Shawna Forde, the executive director of the Minutemen American Defense, is one of three accused in the shooting deaths of 29-year-old Raul Flores and his daughter, 9-year-old Brisenia Flores, at their home in Arivaca, Ariz., a town 10 miles north of the Mexican border.

Gina,

Why are you being so hard on Mark Sanford, when his mistake is at least at the same level of John Edwards who cheated on his wife while she was battling cancer. He took the same moral ground as many other politicians. People talk about republican anger, but how can you not in the face of hypocrisy. To the republicans credit at least they have not forced their wives to stand behind them when they make their admission. They face the humiliation alone. I am not certain I can ever recall a democrat taking the shame alone without their wives standing humiliated behind them.
