An illegal immigrant from Mexico was indicted Wednesday for shooting a Phoenix Police officer.
Jose Abel Cabrera-Somosa, 35, was indicted for attempted first-degree murder as well as weapons charges. He has been charged with shooting a Phoenix police officer on Oct. 14 in east Phoenix. The officer, Bret Glidewell, was protected from the gunshot by a bulletproof vest.
The nonfatal shooting comes on the heels of the killing of Phoenix Police Officer Nick Erfle by another Mexican illegal immigrant.
Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas announced the indictment Wednesday.

Hey, it seems to happen all the time. One thing I am noticing lately is the number of car accidents involving illegals who don't have insurance. In two cases, people I know lost a lot of money due to being in the hospital and out of work for months. But guess what, nothing happened to the illegals. If they don't respect some of our laws (being here illegally, social security/income tax fraud, etc) why would they respect any?

Hey, pal I hope you are white and you never leave America or walk into the wrong neighborhood. Because thinking like that is going to get you into a lot of trouble. Yeah these two individuals did something stupid and deserve to pay for their crimes. But their race and nationality have nothing to do with how they act, or in no way do they represent a nation of people.
Let me ask you a question
Look at all the American criminals, if a Mexicans excuse for crime in your minds is because they are an illegal Mexican. Then what are the Americans (our) excuses?

Why I support a crackdown on Illegals it is not the same issue with the shooting. Most illegals don't commit any further crimes other than being illegal. There are bad people everywhere. These examples are unfortunate but not indicative of all Mexicans in America.

The criminal elements in Mexico are being encouraged to go to the states, so, what would anyone expect? check out the wanted list for L.A. county, not just the most wanted, but all of them.

NO. I dont think they are the official Mexican representatives. Its an example of how those two individuals had no respect for human life.
