The nationwide surge in violence by right wing extremists has been making a lot of headlines lately, both in the blogosphere and the corporate media -- with Fox News doing its best to downplay the violence as isolated and perpetrated by lefties.

Now it appears that Shawna Forde, a rising star in the xenophobic, anti-immigrant militia movement has been arrested for her role in a home invasion that left two dead, including a 9 year old girl.

TUCSON, AZ (KOLD) - Pima County Sheriff's investigators have charged three people with a May 30 home invasion that left a father and 9-year-old girl dead.

Shawna Forde, Jason Eugene Bush and Albert Robert Gaxiola face murder, burglary and aggravated assault charges.

Investigators say the suspects broke into a home in Arivaca, shooting and killing 29-year old Raul Flores and his daughter Brisenia.

Investigators say Forde was the mastermind of the operation. She and Gaxiola are in the Pima county jail. Answering media questions while led out in handcuffs, both suspects denied responsibility for the deadly home invasion.

"This is a very unusual woman," said Clarence Dupnik, Pima County Sheriff. "I don't really know what goes on in her mind, but she is obviously a very evil person. If you look at her history closely, and you know what we know, she is, at best, a psychopath." Read on...

Forde, who is surrounded by numerous controversies, has been on the radars of both the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League for some time now. Shawna is also supported by Jim Gilchrist, co-founder of the Minuteman Project -- who is also embroiled in controversies of his own.

There is only one way to deal with evil phychotic's like this bitch.

They should put this nutjob and her buddies into a fenced in area (unarmed), and let a group of Mexicans (armed to the teeth) hunt them down. See how tough they are then.


If I were a psychopath, I would join the republican party, and get in on the gravy train taking the Teabircher morons to the cleaners.

They'd only complain it wasn't fair, they're being persecuted, and just you wait, you'll see they were right when you're hip deep in illegals coming to take over your home and guns and church and bygoddon'tyou hearasinglethingLouDobbssays?

Lou Dobbs is a bitching misinform-er. It still takes a willing moron though to believe his trashy stories.

But we went over this yesterday in the ;nutjob preacher' thread. These people are listening to someone they believe is good and their words are true. The same applies to Rush, Bill-O, Malkin, Coulter Beck, Hannity .... people like Forde lap it up.

They choose their actions accordingly.

Trouble Finds Shawna Forde

EVERETT -- An Everett woman who attracted national attention by suggesting Mexican drug cartels targeted her for a series of violent attacks now acknowledges she told police they ought to look closer to home for suspects -- including among her own son's friends.

Shawna Forde, 41, said she is convinced there are links between the Dec. 22 shooting of her ex-husband at their north Everett home, her reported rape and beating at the same house a week later, and an attack on Jan. 15 in a nearby alley that left her with apparent gunshot wounds to her right arm.

More than a dozen people who've known Forde for years say the recent flurry of violence is just the latest episode in a life marked by tumult, disruption and multiple brushes with the law. Few are willing to speak for publication, in part because of her current troubles.

Probably moved to Tucson and whined about it not being as cool and green as WA state.

I lived in Everett for 9 years before moving to Las Vegas. This nut claimed to have had her house brokend into in Everett in January and was beaten up by illegals.

She still lives is Everett, just doing her divine intervention (mission from god) in Arizona.

I hope she rottes in jail.

This is a link to a new story by the Everett Hearld Sunday morning with info about another robbery by her thugs in a CA town where her mother lives.

Also information from her mother about this whackjob and other articles from January when she claims she was attacked in Everett by illeagls.

More proof that the DHS report was spot on about rethug nutjobs.

"One of the other things about growing up in a place like Idaho is that, yes, there are racists. Neo-Nazis. White supremacists. Conspiracy-mongering survivalists. Militiamen.

You name it, we've got'em. Not very many of'em, mind you. Their numbers are really quite small, but they've been coming (mostly from California and Arizona) in numbers large enough to shift the political demographics in the state." :-0

Great. This is great. Unless this arrest is a token effort.

wow

From the state of Washington to the border. I currently live in Washington state and in one of my other posts I talked about my daughters graduation.
This woman is typical not atypical. She has probably done these horrible acts before at the border and got away with it, no one knows, and they do cover for each other in a militia mind set.
She knew what she was doing, the problem is she probably thinks its justified because they are less then human. Its becoming a real problem not an isolated case here and there, but these people have to take responsibility for their actions, I just don't think they understand that their actions have to do with hate crimes.

Its just another "isolated" incident.

That means she’s a functioning fundamental compassionate conservative. Let’s face it, these days; if she’s a conservative, she’s a frigging psychopath which makes that statement an oxymoron.

conservative + loser = violence

There sure is a striking link between the two things.

"...On another, she suggests border agents have found bodies of drug smugglers whom she claims were duped by terrorists into carrying radioactive materials into the U.S., hidden inside loads of marijuana."

Umm, if I were looking for a way to smuggle radioactive materials to the US (???), the first place I'd think to stash them is in another illegal material that cops are looking to intercept!! Not!!!

about getting radiation poisoning from their weed? They sure were vocal when Paraquat and Diquat were used by the Feds back in the 80s (?).

There are cult extremists standing on sidewalks in Southern California, reflecting the general rise of right wing extremism all across the country.

for prime street corners nowadays from which one can hawk one's message or product--foreclosed homes cheap, Jesus Saves/the End is Near, Little Cesar's Pizza for $5, bags of oranges, wash your windows for a donation--so it's no wonder these guys had to go all the way east to Azusa...

Are sheriffs considered officers of the court?

They're certainly potential witnesses.

"This is a very unusual woman," said Clarence Dupnik, Pima County Sheriff. "I don't really know what goes on in her mind, but she is obviously a very evil person. If you look at her history closely, and you know what we know, she is, at best, a psychopath."

Comments like that have the tendency to change venues.

They are law enforcement. It gets confusing, because they call security in a court room "court officers."

I maintain a wait-and-see attitude

To see if they're convicted

(Not that there is no such thing as an unjust conviction)

The problem is trials whether they vote for conviction or acquital will serve to arouse more and more terrorist types with either they got away with it, or they're political prisoners.

"The sheriff's office admits there are 39,000 unserved warrants, but said the majority are for minor crimes and that dangerous criminals, rapists and murderers remain a priority for serving warrants."
----------

I guarantee that the majority of "Minor crimes" = possession of controlled substances. Why is it that these are not considered "minor" by the cops at the time of arrest? Why must so much energy, time, money be put into the arrest, prosecution, conviction, and rehabilitation for minor drug possessions? And is it not time for some revision of the classification of some crimes, especially drug possessions, that automatically result in felony charges being filed?

Wonder if Hannity will find the time to cover this? He devoted one sentence or so to the Holocaust Museum killer. This killer will get two sentences buried at the end of his show, then he'll do an epic 16 hour story on Obama's preference for Dijon Mustard, and how it's destroying America as we know it.

the left wing press and media are ready to convict our virgin sister of unspeakable crimes. Yes these might be crimes to your ordinary citizen and I would shout that from the rooftop if it were a left wing whore slut but no , Sistuah Shawna is innocent, she was just trying to lead those people to the Lawd and in their religious zeal they killed themselves. this is yet another left wing liberal press trying to portray the right as stupid ignorant phsycho killers and I want to tell you right now, we are not that stupid. Look at all the money Beck , Oreilly and Limbaugh are paid to feed the moronic right a line of crap, so you see they aren't stupid they are rich and we are not stupid because they tell us what to think.

southernman748's picture

I used to consider the right humorus in a stupid sort of way, but with these killing I have darkened my heart. I no longer see them as funny, I see them as a problem for the future of America. to all you right wing turds out there, its not much of a statement of your manhood to shoot an unarmed man in church or a person being nice by opening up a door for you, or innocent men women and children who are worshipping God. If you want to prove your manhood come after someone like me, I'm Liberal and proud of it, I'm a Marine (1967) and damn proud of it, my 7mmWinchester Magnum Ruger rifle has been blessed by a Jew Rabbi, my 12 guage Browning Pump shotgun has been handled by an abortion Doctor, my 9mm Browning pistol has been fondled by a queer, my ruger 45 revolver was a gift from a Nigger(I was dating his sister)and my 22 pistol was aquired in a trade for the Quoran. If you really want some action I will be more than glad to give you all you want. You people have opened a dark side of me that has been buried for over 40 yrs and like a vampire who hasn't had any blood in that length of time, I am hungry. You want to prove your manhood and the rightousness of your cause, I am waiting. I will have your nuts for breakfast with eggs and a nice Chanti ..yummy

That's called practice, how good were you the first time you drove a car, you could have got hurt doing that. First time I shot a 45 in Marine Corps it scared hell out of me, qualified expert every time after that

First rule: Don't fire a weapon that's bigger than you. Unless it's bolted down. Yet this could explain the familiar brain damaged attitudes.

Unless I missed it, I haven't seen any coverage of this on the news. I just keep hearing the crap coming out of Sarah Palin's pie hole.

CNN has spent more time on coverage of Palin/Letterman and bush Sr's skydiving birthday stunt (guarantee they'll cover it next year too) than on anything substantive lately.

Now she was only a right-winger up until she was arrested, now the right-wingers will say she is a "Lone Wolf" and that we sould not bring politics into this.

You remember the crowed who said Obama was "palling around with terrorists" - well, now they don't feel that people should be guilty by association. Typical!

Actually, she will probably end up in one of Sheriff Arpaio's tent prisons, which will be just about the same as what you are suggesting.
