A fire that blackened nearly 900 acres in San Diego County was caused by illegal immigrants who were apparently lost and set off a signal fire.

The Cowboy Fire did not burn any homes or cause injuries. More than 1,300 firefighters battled Friday's blaze.

Why are they calling it the Cowboy fire? It should be called the illegal immigrant fire.

Ah, yes. Illegal aliens setting fires and burning down communities “that Americans won’t do”. Just where would our society be without the help of these gracious “visitors”?

No doubt they will be dealt with quite unmercifully by the authorities, given such blatant disregard for Kalifornia’s ecology. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

here’s the liberal hierarchy of protected causes:

1. islam
2. illegals
3. “minorities”
4. abortions
5. “environment”
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
11.
12. America

(5 - 11 are reserved for “cause of the day” situations)

So no, “environment” doesn’t trump illegals.

Sorry.

The amazing thing is that we don’t hear more about these ‘migrant’ caused fires. They have NO respect for this land...just imagine what it would look like in a short time if we actually gave it all ‘back’ to them.

This happens more often than we are told. Last summer, 88,000 acres was lost in the Calif. LaBrea fire...caused by illegal alien Mexican drug cartel members.

Where are the environmentalists and your politicians??? Busy counting what’s left of your money, that’s where.

Fire Investigators Determine Cause of La Brea Fire

Incident: La Brea Wildfire (84,150 acres, 25% contained)

Date: August 15, 2009

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

GOLETA, CA... A week-long investigation by U.S. Forest Service Special Agents, Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Narcotics Unit and Fire Investigators has revealed the cause of the La Brea Fire. Investigators revealed that the La Brea Fire was started by a cooking fire in a marijuana drug trafficking operation.

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Narcotics Unit has confirmed that the camp at the origin of the fire was an illegal marijuana operation believed to be run by a Mexican National Drug Organization. The Narcotics Unit has been working in the area within the last month eradicating other nearby marijuana cultivation sites.

Although the La Brea Fire started more than one week ago, there is evidence that the unburned marijuana garden area has been occupied within the last several days. The Narcotics Unit has secured the camp area which was located in remote and rugged terrain. It is also believed that the suspects are still within the San Rafael Wilderness trying to leave the area on foot. Officials warn not to approach anyone who looks suspicious but to instead contact the nearest law enforcement agency.[snip]http://inciweb.org/incident/announcements/article/1803/9150/

Illegal aliens are committing a huge amount of violent and nonviolent crimes and deplete our resources. Yet there is this bizarre love expressed for them by our politicians and even some church leaders.
