ONCE AGAIN, a Mexican Being was where he was not supposed to be, and just look at the consequences.
PHOENIX - A 9-year-old boy looking for help after his mother crashed their van in the southern Arizona desert was rescued by a man entering the U.S. illegally, who stayed with him until help arrived the next day, an official said.The 45-year-old woman, who eventually died while awaiting help, had been driving on a U.S. Forest Service road in a remote area just north of the Mexican border when she lost control of her van on a curve on Thanksgiving, Santa Cruz County Sheriff Tony Estrada said.
The van vaulted into a canyon and landed 300 feet from the road, he said. The woman, from Rimrock, north of Phoenix, survived the impact but was pinned inside, Estrada said.
Her son, unhurt but disoriented, crawled out to get help and was found about two hours later by Jesus Manuel Cordova, 26, of Magdalena de Kino in the northern Mexican state of Sonora. Unable to pull the mother out, he comforted the boy while they waited for help.
The woman died a short time later. [...]
As temperatures dropped, he gave him a jacket, built a bonfire and stayed with him until about 8 a.m. Friday, when hunters passed by and called authorities, Estrada said. [...]
Cordova was taken into custody by Border Patrol agents, who were the first to respond to the call for help. He had been trying to walk into the U.S. when he came across the boy.
The boy and his mother were in the area camping, Estrada said. The woman's husband, the boy's father, had died only two months ago.

Love your graphic. I also blogged about this at Booman Tribune. It's a story I suspect the right wing blogs will ignore because it runs so counter to their dominant narrative that brown people are evil incarnate.

If he's lucky, they'll only deport him. If he touched the woman or the boy he is probably looking at assault, aggravated sexual assaut, attempted kidnapping and maybe even murder in the 2nd degree (depraved indifference). He must also be an atheist because otherwise he would have prayed for GOD to send a beam of rescueness down to the little boy and his mom. Where were the JustaminutehoneyMen when this went down?

So funny and so true.
I can see that Mexican immigrants are a real danger to the US, what with their helping 9-year old boys not die in the wilderness and all. :(

I just pray to my white JESUS that the boy did not learn any Spanish while he was imprisoned by that man.

You just know that Tom Tancredo is pissed that Tom Tancredo would have had him waterboarded and sent to Guantanamo or worse jailed the entire reporting staff for obviously propagandizing and abetting the Mexican Terrorist threat.

What would that be? Mexico-Fascism?
I shouldn't even joke about that. :(
