"Viva Mexico!", my ass. "Texas executes Mexican after court stay rejected"

HUNTSVILLE, Texas (AP) -- The Mexican National who was convicted of the brutal rape and killing of a teenage girl in 1995 died Thursday evening by lethal injection at a Texas prison.

Efforts by Humberto Leal's attorneys to halt the execution fell short, with the U.S. Supreme Court turning back a stay request and Texas Gov. Rick Perry refusing to grant a pardon. He was pronounced dead at 6:21 p.m. local time.

In his last minutes, Humberto Leal repeatedly said he was sorry and accepted responsibility.

"I have hurt a lot of people. ... I take full blame for everything. I am sorry for what I did," he said in the death chamber.

"One more thing," he said as the drugs began taking effect. Then he shouted twice, "Viva Mexico!"

...

Leal was sentenced to death for the 1994 murder of 16-year-old Adria Sauceda, whose brutalized nude body was found hours after he left a San Antonio street party with her. She was bludgeoned with a piece of 30- to 40-pound chunk of asphalt.

The guy came to America as a toddler. Doesn't matter he was born in 'Mexico'. He was a defacto 'American'; he came to America, he killed in America, he died in America. As it should be.

What he didn't do was, like many of his (legal and illegal) countrymen and women, was assimilate to American culture. He never became an "American" by desire, and in the end, he tried to embrace his 'other', but seems that came a bit late to save his worthless skin.

Aliens (legal and otherwise) who lack the desire to assimilate to American culture should not be here. If Humberto Leal was a Mexican citizen, why did he even stay in the U.S.A. long enough to kill a young woman in 1995?

Hmmmph. Good riddance.

Oh, and...

Texas Governor Rick Perry is my newest hero. He stands up to the worthless Mexican government; to the dirty-world socialists in the United Nations; to Barack Hussein Obama (who hates to lose any more votes); to various levels of Federal judges; even to ex-President George W. Bush, and to all the asshat LeftLibProggs everywhere who are against the death penalty.

Rick Perry for President, please.

United Nations tries to 'butt-in' on U.S. sovereignty, by directly attacking our 2nd Amendment rights to Keep and Bear Arms

From Forbes' columnist Larry Bell...

U.N. Agreement Should Have All Gun Owners Up In Arms

It may not come as surprising news to many of you that the United Nations doesn’t approve of our Second Amendment. Not one bit. And they very much hope to do something about it with help from some powerful American friends. Under the guise of a proposed global “Small Arms Treaty” premised to fight “terrorism”, “insurgency” and “international crime syndicates” you can be quite certain that an even more insidious threat is being targeted – our Constitutional right for law-abiding citizens to own and bear arms.

Yes, Larry, we are aware of the United Nations' continuing push to deprive us of our rights. It's an ongoing fight. So, what's the latest push these collective less-than-U.S. dirtbags are pushing to attack our rights?

While the terms have yet to be made public, if passed by the U.N. and ratified by our Senate, it will almost certainly force the U.S. to:

1. Enact tougher licensing requirements, creating additional bureaucratic red tape for legal firearms ownership.

2. Confiscate and destroy all “unauthorized” civilian firearms (exempting those owned by our government of course).

3. Ban the trade, sale and private ownership of all semi-automatic weapons (any that have magazines even though they still operate in the same one trigger pull – one single “bang” manner as revolvers, a simple fact the ant-gun media never seem to grasp).

4. Create an international gun registry, clearly setting the stage for full-scale gun confiscation.

5. In short, overriding our national sovereignty, and in the process, providing license for the federal government to assert preemptive powers over state regulatory powers guaranteed by the Tenth Amendment in addition to our Second Amendment rights.

Exactly what The United Nations and their allies within our own borders have always wanted to do, to make the world 'safer' for what is their ultimate dream: a one-world government, under U.N. control. First, they would have to disarm Americans. Yes, many of our own citizens believe in this goal; my guess is that most of the Left - Liberal - Progressive 'thinkers' in this nation would be more than happy to allow the United Nations to move right in and take over.

One particular tool of the United Nations' anti-gun activities in America is very apparent to me: an ongoing blogging campaign by an United Nations employee to strengthen ties with LeftLibProgg Social Media bloggers, and by using 'blast posting' to capture g00gle search engine attention, to anti-gun news stories circulating for as long as possible.

That person is United Nations employee and anti-gun blogger Mikeb302000. I've pointed out, on numerous occasions, that this guy is a United Nations employee, living in Rome, ostensibly working for the 'U.N. Food Programme', but by his online activities (directly and breathlessly pumping out dozens of blog posts weekly that always seem to point to unfortunate gun deaths here in the U.S., blaming those deaths on our citizen's having the right to own guns) he is an obvious agent provocateur pushing exactly the same agenda that the United Nations (those who sign his paycheck) pushes.

Mikeb302000 has never put up a post on 'United Nations World Food Programme(s)', he and his staff have never strayed from the anti-gun theme. Mikeb302000 is a one-note singer, and it's a sour note if you are an American. His blog motto "arma virumque cano", "I sing of arms and the man": Mikeb302000's song is of the seizing of our arms, disarming the many.

Here's the best answer I've heard to Mikeb302000 and to the United Nations. Bill Whittle, Pajamas Media blogger, created this video to philosophically disprove the attacks Mikeb302000 and his 'outside agency forces' at the United Nations pile on our rights.




If you read this post and agree, link it and let's work together to thwart the United Nations and Mikeb302000's plans to disarm American citizens.

How's the weather in Rome, Mike?

Vos vigilo.
