Saavedra received a $500,000 bond and was place in the Moore County jail.

Welcome to America,heres your sign of what immigration control is all about.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
So you're insinuating that this drug dealer is an illegal immigrant, correct? Do you happen to have any proof, or just an ignorant accusation based on his name and appearance?
For some reason, I picture you sitting in a trailer with a confederate flag in your window and wearing a dirty yellow cut off tee shirt yelling get er done...
Your parents must be proud :)

RmeMP-too funny.
But I think it would be a legit question considering he's broken the law.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
Agreed that EVERYONE who breaks the law, should have their status checked - not arguing that. What I hate is when people automatically ASSUME that because someone appears Hispanic, they must be illegal... And then makes ignorant comments such as the one above.
I'm white by the way :)

I was at the strip club and this dude was there one night. I spent like $100, this dude spent literally $5000. I knew something was up.

I think I see a trend. Put them in jail. Get them to post a big bond. They skip bond and haul a$$ and courts keep the money. I like it! No costly trials. Just making money on bail skippers.

CARTHAGE - A restaurant owner who authorities say is in the U.S. illegally is accused of dealing methamphetamine at his business near Pinebluff.

Someone posting here must be getting upset about questioning the legall staus of one of their relations,and my parents are very proud of me and I know who mine are,sorry if RemMp you are still trying to track yours down.

"this dude spent literally $5000. I knew something was up."
I bet he has his own table for that kind of loot. Is he part of the evil rich we hear so much about? I would think for about 1/5 of that you could get the show to come to you.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
@ cantstandya:
you wrote, "my parents are very proud of me" - is that why they named you, "CANTSTANDYA"?! LoL
congratulations, your redneck self was apparently correct in the profiling hispanic (but i can still see you in your sweat stained tee shirt, yelling at your "ma" to get you another pabst blue ribbon)
perhaps if the pilot had staff who would actually do a little reporting, such as the fayetteville observer did, we would have gotten the whole story in the first place...

RMeMP - youdo not see the world as it is, you see the world as you are. Whether you are white or not has no bearing whatsoever, that you felt by sharing your race would deflect anyone from calling you a - dare I say it ....
Cantstandya made a simple statement... You performed your own interruption of that statement. He/She made that statement without resorting to foul language, name calling, slurs, or backdoor innuendo. What I hate is people not being able to voice their opinions without being personally attacked. As if that personal attack did anything but define how you are.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
@ ladyd53:
what cantstandya did was NOT make a simple statement, HE is the one who brought racism into the thread by ASSUMING the defendant was illegal - even though it did not say he was anywhere in this story.
if its OK for him to ASSUME this defendant is illegal, then it should also be OK for me to ASSUME that he is a typical trailer park racist; also, it is OK for me to ASSUME that you are his sister and the mother to his child :)
sadly, it is people you like you and he who keep racism alive in this country and prove the theory of evoltion - only the two of you haven't caught up to the rest of society!
dustyrhoades 1 year, 7 months ago
Even though I agree that cantstandya's comment was blatantly racist, I think it's hilarious that RmeMP, of all people, is suddenly the one calling someone on being 'racist' since he gets so touchy when he even thinks anyone else is doing it:
RmeMP: typical liberal attacking points, against a BLACK man - what are you, RACIST?! isnt that what you guys on the left always say against anyone who points out any of the many difficiencies with your false idol oblunder? ;)
But of course, when it's your own ox that's gored, it's very different, right?
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
It's very simple dusty... I HATE racist people - its that easy.
There is no country so diverse as ours and instead of being able to share in each other cultures and enjoy them, ignorant people like "cantstandya" ruin that opportunity.
As far as you quoting me, why didn't you include the pretext to it? For those who don't know, since dusty only includes half the story, is in the thread he pulled my quote from, I was defending Herman Cain; I was pointing out that anytime someone doesn't agree with obamas policies, they are called racists by the left - but the left has no problem attacking Mr. Cain, as Dusty was doing; therefore, I was simply fishing out some of his own medicine :)
annettespal 1 year, 7 months ago
I think it's safe to "assume" this thug, whether here legally or illegally, should be sent back south! You could put 100 drug dealers from South America in a cell and I bet 99 of them would be illegals.
dustyrhoades 1 year, 7 months ago
And since REMF has decided to perpetuate the lie that anytime someone doesn't agree with obamas policies, they are called racists by the left let's ask for some examples of "leftists" calling people racists for not agreeing with Obama policies--rather than for actual racism.

I would just like to say that I am very thankful for Moore County Sheriffs Dept taking this guy down. This restaurant is located in a peaceful area of town and had no business selling Meth there. I am glad that law enforcement kept their eyes open and took care of the problem. The bad part is that I just rode by this place the other day and was thinking that I was happy for them for keeping their business open for so long in this location. This little building has held a long line of businesses that don't last very long.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
Ahh, there you go again trying to be cute "DIRTYDUSTY" - I know you get paid by The Pilot, and therefore you obviously don't have to abide by the same site rules as everyone else, because if you did then SURELY they would delete every one of your comments which include the acronym you use for me...
Since maybe they don't know it's meaning, or refuse to ask you, why don't you explain to them what, "REMF" stands for?
Funny thing is YOU never served on active duty in a war zone, I have; therefore, it is actually YOU who are the, "REMF" :)
Bigguy 1 year, 7 months ago
Haven't read RmeRp before but I agree with him on this one. This person caught dealing drugs has the same rights as anyone else. Not fair to call him an illegal or anyother derogatory term. My wife is not from this neck of the woods, and I would not like for someone to make a blanket statement about her being here illegally(she's not) just because of her skin tone. Not that it would kind of me to call canstandya some inbred redneck hillbilly geek. Na that wouldn't be nice.
babiehop 1 year, 7 months ago
Why, yes, I think we all would like the barrister to explain EXACTLY what he meant by REMF. If you can't spell it out on here because it is too vulgar, then don't use it on here.
Glad thug got nabbed.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
@babyhop:
No, "REMF" can not be spelled out here, and if DIRTYDUSTY is to cowardly to admit what it stands for than I will - carefully of course, as I would not be allowed to spell it out exactly; I can paraphrase it though :)
dustyrhoades 1 year, 7 months ago
The first two words of REMF stand for "Rear Echelon'" . You can guess the rest.
And a guy who throws insults while cowering behind an alias lecturing me about cowardice? Hliarious
cantstandya 1 year, 7 months ago
RmeMP." Actually they have medicationss for your tantrums,intelligent comments on immigration are going on everyday,with that in mind research what the immigration control measures are costing us the taxpayer and then you might understand why one would resent their being here,to hide behind the racist card is really not going to cut it anymore,thats just a opinion formed by the misinformed,do some research and take a break from defending those that don't deserve your defense.
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
"REMF" - acronym used by military members, which DIRTYROADS would no nothing about, stands for, "Rear Echelon Mother *!?%@#" - ie: someone who is to scared to fight on the front lines, and instead stays back where it is safe.
Hmm, let's see here: I am a veteran who has served in war and had friends killed by enemy fire, DIRTYROADS is a pathetic slimy defense attorney who has never served on active duty a single day in his life - you tell me who the REMF is?! :)
Ps: If you want to know who I am DIRTY, why won't you come have a beer with me sometime? You never showed up last time I offered.
dustyrhoades 1 year, 7 months ago
DIRTYROADS is a pathetic slimy defense attorney
why won't you come have a beer with me sometime?
Heh.
cantstandya 1 year, 7 months ago
In the rear with the gear RmeMP has gone off the tracks,this has turned into a discussion about him so with that in mind,probably best to just let it go and move on,I can tell by his use of military termonology his exploits are probably all a fabrication in his own mind, but whatever makes his day ,and as far as being scared,most of us were but did not let that hinder our mission,you see many of us out here also have seen combat but probably not as much as you have invented in your own mind.
Bigguy 1 year, 7 months ago
He sounds alot like that StaffSgt whatever his name was. Big Blow Hard Jerk. Sorry I agreed with anything he said. I still do not appreciate ignorant rantings that canstandya blindly makes about immigrants.
cantstandya 1 year, 7 months ago
There is a difference between rantings and facts,and ignorance is usually the reason people do not know the difference,and I would have to say your comment fits the latter amigo.

Always check with Fayetteville papers if you want facts about things that happen in Moore County.

@RmeMP,
Wow, sir! You are putting on quite a show for us here today. I can just hear the jingle-jangle of your medals clanging against one another as you battle against 'trailer trash, 'racists', brother/sister relations', 'ignorant people, 'pathetic people', 'slimy people', 'liberal defense attorneys', etc. I, myself, am a recently retired warrior, like you. I recently received notice from General Martin Dempsey, Chief of Staff, that says in part that I; "...having served faithfully and honorably, was retired from the United States Army on the Seventh day of August, 2011". As sort of a fond farewell, I took a photographer with me to the Moore County Veteran's Memorial in Carthage and had one last photo taken standing next to my name on Block 11. If you would be so kind as to give us your name (not RmeMP) maybe we could look you up at the Memorial Site. While we are waiting, I must confess that I have been present in the courts facility on several occasions over the years (lived here for 35 years) when Attorney Rhodes was present and I never found him to be 'pathetic', 'ignorant', 'slimy' or any other similar adjective to which you might want to attach his name. He did appear to represent some of those 'kind' of people (probably without pay, on occasion) over the years. Before you completely soil your jangling medals, maybe you should put your verbal sword away for a while and reread what you are putting out on the worldwide web for all to see.

Looking at his eyes, I can see why he was charged with possession.

deidretg: Thank you.
To know me is to love me :-).
cantstandya 1 year, 7 months ago
I'm sure that this subject has had a longer life than it should have and with that said had one member of this site done their research they would have known that the restaurant owner was here illegally here and my original comment would have said just that,because we do have a real problem ,maybe not to that person but to our border patrol agents and those who are trying to contain this ever growing problem that cost all of us,and this particular instance is just one of many and if one is going to defend those that are here illegally with disreguard for those who try and prevent their illegall activity then they are just as much of the problem as those breaking our laws,the trailer trash,rebel flag,and dirty cut off T-shirt,those comments did not bother me,it's that Pabst Blue Ribbon,ouch,that hurt,you see I drink Crown Royal,someone must have been in the Navy to get PBR,us Jarheads had to drink Black Label ,and that only when they could get it to us,
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
wow... so let me get this straight:
I stand up for a hispanic guy, who i don't know, simply because "cantstandya" makes a racist remark (assuming that he was illegal before knowing the facts) and everyone gets made at me - that's fine, it simply shows what the majority of people are who live in moore county...
i tell you what deidretg (david), I am in fact on the veteran's memorial in carthage (not that it's any of your business) - and good for you for having 23+ years in the military, 36 awards and citations, and being 30% disabled (whos clanking awards now?!) - according to your wall that you posted; while i may not have had as many years in as you, nor as many "awards and citations" - i am rated with a higher disability percentage than you are - so congratulations for trying to belittle a "fellow warrior" who was put out on medical retirement as a lowely E-5...
and as far as me putting away my "verbal sword for the worldwide web to see" goes - i will NEVER stop rattling my sword to point out those who are ignorant, or racist as they do nothing positive for my community - shall i add you to my list? general?
btw - i couldn't help but notice you riding in a HUMVEE for your avatar picture - since it's ok for DIRTYDUSTY to call people a REMF, shall i also include you in that category?
----SCOUT's OUT (not in the rear)
RmeMP 1 year, 7 months ago
@cantstandya...
i agree we have a border control problem, and i show no remorse for those here illegally - my issue with you was the fact that you accused someone of something without any facts; if you would have said something along the lines of, "according to the fayetteville observer this guy was illegal..." then there would have been no problem at all. the whole "assuming" about being a trailer park, sweat stained shirt wearing, sister child bearing, rebel flag waving, and PBR drinking dude was simply to show a point about how "assuming" can upset people - MISSION ACCOMPLISHED ;)
i have no problem with anyone here, even DIRTYDUSTYROADS, and everyone is entiltled to their opinions, even if they are incorrect. i don't need to prove anything to anyone (deidretg), as i have lived my life and served my country proudly - something i am not bragging about, but something i'm not going to hide either.
with that, i bid you all a good night!
deidretg 1 year, 7 months ago
@RmeMP;
Yes, go ahead and add me to your all inclusive list. You feel better, now?

1) It has been established by the Fayetteville News and Observer that the accused is an illegal. 2) It is time to call ICE, ICE, baby!

Even a blind squirrel gets a nut every once in awhile,but to own a business and whatever else and still not be detected until a drug bust is alittle bit of a problem with me,how did he get this ingrained into our society without being caught at least for being here illegally,sometime during his stay and getting a business together,drivers license,tax info,credit something or someone should have made him show proper ID,the system needs work,but congtrats to the LEO's for at least doing their jobs.
