What's going on over there?  I came across this tidbit [url]http://www.assaultweb.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=25;t=000251[/url]over at assweb and it seems that something fishy is going on with RR.  Anyone know whats up?

Below is a bit, I got to send an e-mail to a contact and see what the hell is going on. Mostly it seems that the charges against the RR-texas guys have made an interal conflict rip open. I think the charges against the texas guys are BS as there was an independent MEDIA witness though he was French so....

The Arizona branch of Ranch Rescue, a civilian watchdog group often criticized for its dealings with undocumented immigrants, is splitting from the national group and will no longer patrol the border.

Instead, the group will change its name and focus on cleaning up trash left behind by immigrants as they enter from Mex- ico, group spokesman David Cheney said.

"We want to get back to our original mission of helping our neighbors," Cheney said. "We are trying to make the public understand we're not a bunch of Mexican-hating rednecks chasing Mexicans around for sport."
