ALERT: Remember the Border Patrol agents, Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, who were prosecuted during the Bush years JUST FOR DOING THEIR JOBS, after pressure from the Mexican government?
After a big drug smuggler pointed his weapon at them while fleeing and they fired in return, the Mexican government demanded that the Bush administration prosecute the officers for "violating his civil rights". The U.S. caved, and Ramos and Compean received lengthy prison sentences JUST FOR DOING THEIR JOBS.
With less than 24 hours left in his presidency, George W. Bush at last granted clemency to the two former Border Patrol agents... but not before they had suffered solitary confinement and beatings by illegals in prison.
