In reply to the discussion: A little while ago I had one of the saddest phone calls I have ever recieved. [View all]freshwest

I hope you can help organize people in your area to make law enforcement seek this young man out. I was talking to an officer who was sent to contact an elderly neighbor someone hadn't been able to raise on the phone and they were worried. It turned out she was okay but having phone trouble and didn't know it. He had made a welfare call, uniform and all.
That's what Sheriff Joe and his gang of misfits ought to be doing for the state of Arizona, not grandstanding. And the BP is flying overhead, probably looking for people. So can you guys get them to try to find him?

One can only hope he's gone on to somewhere farther north and is busy. But you never know.

You're in AZ. I hope he didn't get a 1070. That's just way too sad. I'd look too.

I think at this point that would actually be the best news this family could have.

The problem of illegal immigration really comes down to one individual story after another.

What's sad is some redneck could have shot him and then buried him with a tractor.

Still, some people are really good at crafting what they present to the world.
