I would like you to meet the racist and Anti-Immigration Extremist Shawna Forde who crawled out from under her rock via the Internet and showed up in my life two years ago.
Accused Child Killer Shawna Ford, Confronting Protesters Everett, WA
Shawna Ford,according to her self written legend, decided to save America from the Mexicans after she walked into a unidentified shopping mall here in Washington state and everyone-excluding herself of course- was speaking Spanish.
Because of the shopping mall incident she went on to hold an Anti-Mexican summit in Everett, Washington where then GOP Presidential Candidate Duncan Hunter from California held a Q & A with Shawna’s group by phone.
My husband organized a protest at this event of Shawna’s and shortly after that his picture with the following quotes appeared on her now defunct website:
( unable to import pictures, though I do have them on file )

At right, Moscoso, along with a tax-funded La Raza press corps, loses an on-street debate with Minuteman Jim Gilchrist
The open borders crowd, including Democrat Kingpin Luis Moscoso (far left of course), gangs up in La Raza fashion against Minuteman Jim Gilchrist in Everett June 30, 2007. Naturally this bunch has the use of expensive, taxpayer-financed media equipment, and still loses the street debate. Said Gilchrist, “The last refuge of a scoundrel is to call somebody else a racist” (note La Raza’s sign in background) .
La Raza can’t even poop without Gringo tax money

- From Her Blog: Forde Defending Our Borders in Arizona
Shawna was running for Everett City Council at this time and she had a base of sorts and support until she stole some chocolate milk from a grocery store. That action- not any of the others she had acted upon to that point cost her whatever Political standing and credibility she had in Everett.
Later, upon returning to her home in Everett from Arizona where she was busy securing the borders, she claims to have been raped by Mexicans in her home. She refused to cooperate with the Police in that investigation. Shortly after that story broke it was suspected she had concocted the story and used makeup to create bruises on her own body- pictures of which began to show up on the Internet.
This of course brings us all to what Shawna is accused of doing to a little girl in Arizona.
Nine Year old Brisenia Flores-Shawna Forde is accused of her murder
When Shawna put my husband on the homepage of her website she also ran a story about a Boy Scout who lived within a mile from us. In her story she talks about this young man who was a credit to his community, she said, because he was going to defend our borders from the Mexican Invasion.
What I found disturbing then, and horrifies me now is that Shawna’s Boy Scout displayed a picture of himself on his myspace page and in it he is proudly holding a rifle.
What Shawna Forde was doing in Everett, Washington-what she believed in, her efforts to target people, including high-school students on her website was out there for everyone to see and she didn’t even cause a ripple in the pond.
Maybe people ignored her because she wasn’t going to show up on their doorstep and demand they go back to Mexico, maybe she came across as such a nut that it was hard to take her seriously The end result was for their own reasons people chose to not question what exactly this train wreck of a human being was trying to accomplish.
Richard Chenevix Trench, Dean of Westminster, 1856-63, wrote: ‘Talk of the devil and he is bound to appear’, he was warning against being to curious about evil- that if you get to curious or to close to evil you will bring it into your life.
Maybe that’s why they ignored her in Everett.
The thing of it is when you accept evil into your life, when you tolerate it and foster it the result is the same.
You’ve not just spoken of the Devil you have gotten down on your knees and shouted his name out at the tops of your lungs
and begged him to appear
and
tragically in Arizona, she did.

tragic, tragic story – a child’s life lost.
scarily the rise of the far right has gained momentum here – well they have always been present, active and apparent – but now they are actually gaining seats which makes them seem credible – and i do mean seem. it is a difficult one – so many folk air the view that ‘we live in a democracy, therefore everyone has a right to be heard’ but these same folk seem to be deaf to the fact that it is illegal to incite racial hatred, whatever form that takes. the dehumanising of any person, let alone a whole nation, leaves me with a sense of wanting to shake these folk in order for them to wake up and, well, think! – tis all it takes, thought – so much easier to blame than take any responsiblity for our own misfortunes. hmm, stepping down off my box ………
sad, sad story
It gets worse Jill- it’s been reported that Shawna and the others involved in the murders went looking for the girl’s sister too- she was spending the night away from home and they couldn’t find her. That’s why there isn’t two dead children involved in this case.
What amazes me the most is the absolute pride these people take in hating others so much, to the point where even an innocent child is not safe.
There are some people in the world who are scarier than anything we can imagine.
That is so true…and it’s my job to imagine monsters. I could never have come up with a creature like Shawna Forde

Extremism! Fundamentalism in any form is to be feared. Australia is not free of such appalling behavior. An aboriginal elder, one of the last of the Stone Age men (he described himself as this), died a shocking death in the back of a divvy van because he was an aboriginal and the powers that be seem to deem them to be lesser in some way. All he had done was drink too much. He literally cooked in a van that had no air, as he was driven for four hours without food and water. The temperature in the van reached over 50C. At times like this I find myself wondering about our future. It is terrifying.
I read about this, Heather. What a horrible way to die. My heart goes out to that man and his family.
This is horrendous. Anita Marie, take care. People like this are scary, scary. I have never understood hatred and intolerance and the violence that so often accompanies them. Right now our family is upset because the people who moved in down the street have a Confederate flag on the tailgate of their truck – and my daughter’s fiance is bi-racial.
I hope this woman goes to jail and never, ever gets out again.
Will the human race ever become civilized? as technology and the opportunity to do so much grows our ability to live in harmony with each other seems to fade. You are so brave. Fran
Wow. I found this blog as a result of a google search about Shawna Forde, after reading about her. A reporter for the blog interviewed her, and when she professed sympathy for Brisenia Flores’s mother, her words sounded so insincere and callous, I felt compelled to learn more about this creature, Shawna.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this person, and on how the rest of us unwittingly enable creatures like her. You’ve given us some very rich food for thought.
I crossed paths with her in 1987 while she was married to Jack Darling. She was a pathological liar and thief. I’m not surprised that her first child died of “SIDS”, the way she guzzled beer and told us that “this kid is gonna have a babysitter as soon as its born”. She was a bad seed.
