Ranch Rescue Disbands

The Sierra Vista Herald reports that Operation Ranch Rescue has disbanded, and Jack Foote has been sent packing. Our friends at Border Action Network are thought to be a major factor.

Ranch rescue
by Dan Wednesday, Nov. 03, 2004 at 9:10 AM

Jack Foote is a hero. One man dedicated to standing up against criminal behavior. You call him a vigilante because he does what is right by the standards of millions of Americans. Some thought our founding fathers were "vigilantes" too. But that didn't stop them from creaing the nation that you are bleeding today. I have the finances to raise Ranch Rescue again. And I will. Illegal immigration and those who support the criminal practice will be stopped.

Bad Logic

Jack Foote committed criminal behavior according to Arizona law. Therefore, by your logic, the people who are trying to stop him are heros.

Actually, Jack Foote is not being charged under Arizona law, but under Federal law.

Same Logic

Despite what he was charged under, he violated Arizona law. And the logic still stands. His opponents are heroes for fighting against a law-breaker.

Jack Foote the Criminal
by Jack Lord Wednesday, Nov. 10, 2004 at 12:15 PM

Broke US law. He was arrested by the FBI on illegal weapons charges. Specifically, Foote could not legally posess firearms in this country because of his previous conviction for domestic abuse.

Yeah, Foote is a real piece of work. Now that he doesn't have a wife to beat, he has gone after illegal immigrants, a group who is even less likely than his unfortunate former spouse to tell authorities about mistreatment at his hands. Foote is a genuine, card carrying coward, a swaggering blowhard who preys on the defenseless.

No wonder you fancy him, Steve.

Well, Jack, you claim Jack Foote is a wife-beater??? For a misdemeanor charge of domestic disturbance? Do you know this for a fact? Or do you just assume? I.e., do you just pre-judge? In other words, are you PREJUDICED?
How do you get that Ranch Rescue in general, and Jack Foote in particular, PREY on illegal aliens? What they do is protect the helpless victims of the illegal alien invader to protect their property from their illegal depradations. You surely must know of the stories of the border residents who are under siege from these criminals. My God, man, you should see the way these invaders have ruined the the Arizona desert with their waste. You can't hide from it, you cannot, much less, deny it. Look what's happenned to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument! It's too dangerous for visitors to go to now. And a number of archaelogical sites in this desert jewel have been permanetly wrecked by these "keepers of the Earth". Are you and your Leftist haters going to use the same vituperative language against the Tohono O'Odham Indians, whose attitude towards the Invader is the same, who have been equivalently victimized? Worse are the actual crimes they commit while trespassing. These intruders are the real predators. Jack does not go out in public to PREY on them. He helps private citizens protect themselves.
You do not even KNOW Jack Foote, yet you have determined that he is a coward for what he does in protecting private property, which, I gather from reading this site, is a concept that the Left viscerally opposes and considers a fascist construct, and anyone who tries to defend it is by nature a would-be murderer who should be capped. That's what the REAL issue is with you humans, and the way you make your point is to describe supporters and defenders of the idea as the worst kind of entity, unworthy of any consideration as human beings. You are, it must go with saying, totally against this coutry's having national borders, and see the invasion , conquest, and replacement by a foreign people as the way to defeat capitalism. I know this very well myself, I have run with the Left myself in the past, e.g. Earth-First! and the Quakers--I know what blackness and racist hate burn in their hearts. The fact of Ranch Rescue really scares the beejesus out of you, because it goes to the heart of solving the problem, and thrwarting your evil desires to eliminate the USA and her people. You prove it by your violent, hate-filled, reactionary response to it.
So what are you going to do next, Jack? Make more unfounded slanderous remarks against us? All you do is display your INTELLECTUAL DISHONESTY! Steve

From the Tucson Daily Star
by HAHA Thursday, Nov. 11, 2004 at 8:32 PM

"A second border-militia leader was arrested on weapons charges by the FBI this week, and one arrested last week will remain in federal custody because he's considered a threat to public safety.

Ranch Rescue founder Torre John Foote, 47, also known as Jack Foote, was arrested by the FBI in Sierra Vista on Monday afternoon on a charge of illegal possession of a weapon, stemming from a 1996 misdemeanor conviction for domestic violence in Mineral County, Mont."

Yep. Former wife-beater. Currently an immigrant beater. What a sack of shit this John Torre Foote, aka "Jack Foote," is.

Clarification

stephenemason@yahoo.com

Let's see, Jack Foote is an "immigrant beater"? Where do you get that from? Whom did he beat? No one, of course. BTW, illegal alien criminal trespassers are not "immigrants". They are the former, and the latter are those who come in with permission, under the procedure laid out by law.

Further Clarification
by Not as Dumb as Steve Saturday, Nov. 13, 2004 at 1:10 PM

Immigrant:

Definition: [n] a person who comes to a country where they were not born in order to settle there

A person who comes to another country to settle there is an immigrant. Legal status has nothing to do with it.

Foote and his gang of cowards have already been charged in Texas for beating immigrants.

http://arizona.indymedia.org/news/2003/11/13831_comment.php

Casey Nethercott, another Ranch Rescue bully and coward, was arrested in Arizona for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution. Nethercott was on parole for assault with a deadly weapon in California when he joined Ranch Rescue. In June, he was found guilty in Texas of felony firearms posession.

Again, in case you missed the point, Foote and his gang are not only felons, they are bullies and cowards. The lot of them don't have enough balls in their pants to fill a thimble. No wonder you feel a kinship, "Steve Mason."

This shit again
by Steve Mason Monday, Nov. 15, 2004 at 5:37 AM
stephenemason@yahoo.com

The charges against Nethercott for unlawful flight were dropped due to being unfounded. Foote is not charged or involved in Nethercott's alleged "beating". And an illegal alien is not an immigrant but an uninvited criminal, I don't care what you think.
Aside from Nethercott, whose assessment by you Jack Foote would agree with, who else is a felon in Ranch Rescue? As for your glib know-it-all attitude that RR members are cowards, those are just the remarks of a basic, ignorant PUNK.
Che Guevara, Open Borders, Ho Chi Minh! to you, PUNK.

Foote's No Felon- Yet
by Foot is Trailer Trash Monday, Nov. 15, 2004 at 8:38 PM

Just an irresponsible bum with kids by several women, a no-account, miserable specimen of a man who evades paying child support for the children he has fathered both in and out of wedlock-

this from the American Statesman-

Family members know Jack Foote as Torre John Foote, the birth name given to him 46 years ago by a father who died last spring and a mother,
Patricia Gibson, of Orlando, Fla. Gibson says she hasn't spoken to her
son in 11 years. Foote's brother in Norcross, Ga., demanded that he not
be included in a story about someone he hasn't seen in more than 15
years and has no use for. An aunt in Memphis, Tenn., who took in Foote
during his parents' divorce and who doted on him, hasn't heard a word
from him in nearly two decades. When Claire Ellers learned of her
nephew's border work, she started to cry.

"I don't think he was mad; he just disappeared, and we never knew why,"
Ellers says. "He just didn't want any part of his family. None. Zero.
Just disappeared. He's always been very private. He went to an extreme
in his privacy."

The mothers of his three children think Foote has a more pragmatic
reason for his secrecy. According to documents filed with the Circuit
Court of Marion County, Fla., going back to 1992, Foote has failed to
pay child support for Christina, now 15, and David, now 14, both
fathered with his first wife, Janet R. Sealy. David was born after the
the couple's divorce was final, and it was Foote's mother who went to
court to establish her son's paternity in an effort to get him to pay
child support, according to Marion County records.

A case filed by the Texas Attorney General's Office on behalf of the
state of Idaho in 2001 says Foote has failed to pay support for a
daughter, Rachael, also 14, who lives with her mother, Sandra K.
Corrigan, in Casper, Wyo. In an accounting filed with the support case
in Dallas County, Corrigan listed a 16-year-old car and food stamps
among her assets. The attorney general closed the case because the
office could not find Foote. The case remains open in Idaho, although
the family has moved, Corrigan says.

For a few months in 1989, Corrigan and Sealy were pregnant at the same
time with children fathered out of wedlock by Foote, according to birth
and court records.

Souds like a Wetback!
by Steve Mason Tuesday, Nov. 16, 2004 at 4:36 AM
stephenemason@yahoo.com

This behaviour of leaving kids behind sounds just like your typical wetback, illegal alien wage-stealer. Only on not as large a scale. You just hate Jack Foote because he's trying to stop the invasion. So far, you have not shown that he has commiitted any illegal act in connection with Ranch Rescue. You are, however, showing your filthy, snot-nosed Leftist irrational hatred. You are about as morally and spritually superior as the Shining Path shit-head asswipes this web-site supports.

You Are Such a [pathetic racist] idiot
by My Dog is Smarter than Steve Tuesday, Nov. 16, 2004 at 6:43 AM

Foote is up on federal charges for illegal weapons posession. Is that enough of a "crime" for you?

http://www.dailystar.com/dailystar/metro/40195.php

Not that it matters to you, I'm sure. You worship Foote as a fellow racist. As a worthless, can't-hold-a-job, child-support dodging piece of trailer trash, Foote is a prime example of the white race and culture you are so worried about protecting.

by Kent Williams Friday, Nov. 19, 2004 at 10:39 AM

As I read the comments about Ranch Rescue, and Mr. Foote, it struck me that the opponents of Mr. Foote sound like your typical bleeding heart liberals. Spouting out unsubstantiated and ill-informed charges against Mr. Foote. The old liberal tactic of demonizing your target and hoping that no one is paying real attention.

But just for kicks, lets say that Foote is guilty of domestic violence, etc.. In the context of guarding our borders, I am on his side. The Border Patrol is doing practically nothing except enforcing the enemic laws we haved on the books. Our elected officials are gutless about addressing the problem and passing effective legislatiuon. There is just too much money involved in letting illegals into the country.

The truth is that the federal taxes the illegals pay are shoring up the almost bankrupt social security system. The illegals will never benefit from social security but they still pay the tax. The liberals need them here for tax mnoney and as a constituency.

From my experience the federal gun charges are probably bogus (remember Waco and Ruby Ridge) anyway.

Enough with the anger.
by Just some guy in TX. Friday, Nov. 19, 2004 at 11:35 AM
stealingcows@yahoo.com

Why get angry, just don't pay anymore. Taxes that is.
Federal and state. I don't. Haven't for 6 years. This is really the best way to stop the Socialists. If Texas even had an income tax, that too I would not pay.
You have to live a life of contracting though. Easy to do especially if you're a truck driver. And you don't need a bank. It's easier than you think.
I was angry then I acted...by not participating.
The Feds and the states have gone Communist.
So you want me to pay you money so you can destroy my Bill of Rights Mr. Fedgov?
The Feds and states can go to hell. Likewise the trespassers of my country.

retired grunt
by air assault engineer Friday, Nov. 19, 2004 at 4:25 PM

Better ways exist to stem the flow of unlawful immigration.

Destruction of private property is a crime.

Littering is a crime.

Drug smuggling is a crime.One that im combatting

Show of force patrols will get you noticed.And not always in a good way.

I spoke with Jack a while ago about his carrying a firearm and his being a Lautenberg Violator.

I also told him that the folks at the .mil he was contracted to would like to see him stop with the firearm business. I also told him that the Mexican Embassy was notified of his Lautenberg status. And that they would pressure our .gov .

This was before Devers even knew of J.T Footes Lautenberg status.

Jack ignored me and what I told him. I told him that this was going to happen yet he disregarded my advice.This was more warning than most ever get . Jack had his chance and blew it. I tried to difuse the situation but he continued to agitate the various .mil and .gov agencies...

His direct employer SAIC I noticed was not mentioned in the paper nor was his army.mil
sponsor Guri Glass.

SAIC will most likely pay for the omission of its name by buying a really large now hiring ad in each paper who found it not worthy to print the whole truth.

Jack.foote@us.army.mil

Funny how the full story never gets out.

Illegal entry has a cause find the cause and fix it. This realistically is not going to happen.

Immigration to me is of a secondary concern.Stopping Illicit drug trafficing is my first.

Glenn has the best approach of all so far. Chris is pushing the line.

And when you remove a Jack Foote you leave the door open to replacements.

When you step into the Fed Sand Box you had better know the rules.

Jack Had His warning
by Joe Friday Friday, Nov. 19, 2004 at 5:36 PM

Seeing that alot of information is being bandied about. I figure some clarification might be in order.

I warned John Torre Foote a.k.a jack foote
that his actions would have consequences.

After the S.O.F piece was published he started to bring alot of attention to not only himself but to His employer SAIC. and the Agencies they are contracted to .

I told Jack that his status as a Lautenberg Violator was known to the .gov and .mil agencies. He brushed me off. I also told him that if he continued his carrying of a firearm that he would eventually be arrested.

I even went so far as to give him one last chance . What may have finally sunk his ship was the Mexican Embassy . They recieved the same information and possibly pressured the govt. to act.

Jack had plenty of chances to stop carrying but refused.

Yes unauthorized entry into this country is a crime you get arrested for. In other countries you get shot for it.

Destruction of private property is a crime

Littering is a crime

Trespassing is a crime

Immigration across the border is not a concern to me

Stopping the illicit smuggling of drugs is.

getting shot at by smugglers is bad enough. Without having to worry about some Militia Wannabes shooting without proper target identification.

Tracking is hard enough without the interaction of others who dont know what they are looking for.

Jack had more chances than a cat in a Korean Kitchen
yet he refused to listen.

Glenn Spencers Hands off attitude is the best chance for civilian operations

Chris is pushing the line.

Show of Force marches will get you noticed. But the attention you get may not be the attention you were seeking.

If your going to play in the Federal Sand Box you had better know the rules

Different Foote
by Steve O Tuesday, May. 09, 2006 at 11:04 AM
steveoc@frontiernet.net

I roomed with John Torre Foote (apparently aka/ Jack Foote) for 2 years. Like his family I have not heard from him in over 20 years even though I have attempted to contact him. I can only say that the person I knew in college did have extreme views that bordered on racism, but I would also say that he had a good heart and was a good friend. I consider myself a bleeding heart on most issues, but I think that what this group he was involved in brought attention to an important problem that needs to be addressed. Torre's star has certainly fallen and I won't defend him because he obviously has hurt many people in his life. I just feel like I'm reading about a different person than the one I knew and can't belive he is as bad as some of you have stated.
