and prosecuted for conspiring to violate the civil rights of

The government's lack of action is giving the[Barnett] brothers
a green light to continue apprehending people, said Isabel
Garcia, a Tucson lawyer and a member of the human rights
group Derechos Humanos.
Derechos
Humanos has also organized a "vigil" to be held in
Tucson, Arizona on June 2, 2000. This outfit is in the
same league as the 'Chicano Studies' Professor Armando
Navarro of the University of California at Riverside, foreign
nationalist and co-founder of MALDEF Mario Obledo, and other
anti-American reconquista types. |
