Immigrants run across highway to avoid being captured
Valley Central ^ | 7-4-14 | Nadia Galindo

Fresh footprints, sightings on residents streets, if you look close enough, the signs are everywhere.

"They are not trying to hide or remain concealed anymore," Rio Grande City Police Officer Jose Garcia said.

Action 4 News did a ride-along with Rio Grande City Police to see how the immigration surge is affecting residents in the area.

Officer Garcia spends more than half of his day tracking down undocumented immigrants.

Illegal immigration is nothing new to the border town but has recently become more visible.

"People are forgetting that aside from the fact that families and woman are giving themselves up, there is a whole other faction that are not giving themselves up," Rio Grande City Mayor Ruben Villarreal said.

Mayor Villarreal saw the bold behavior of immigrants first hand.

Just think...

World population is 7 billion+ people,
= 7000+ million people.

USA is 320 million people = less than 5% of world population.

Yet, 20% of worldwide immigrants are accepted by USA!
Which means 5% population accepts four times more immigrants than world average.

I think we need to curb immigration down to world average.
Accept only high skilled or wealthy who will not be a burden. Stop this BS of accepting relatives and illegals. Obummer & Bush-43 have put us on a track to become 3rd world.

I can picture it now; Role reversal; when the mouse chases the cat. The Border Patrol Agents are running, running,and the Teenage illegals and chasing, chasing, in hot pursuit the Border Patrol Agents. “Here I Am! Border Man, I am here! I demand you arrest me now, and start all the paperwork, I am tired of chasing you in this desert. Estoy tan muy cansado! Parase Tocando. Stop playing!

Absolutely!

We definitely need comprehensive immigration reform, but not what 0-bastard has in mind.

Now that means catching immigrants before they can hurt themselves or others.

If they hurt themselves, guess what -- free medical care.

Why is this news?
CALTRANS, the California Division of Highways, have had special hwy signs marking these illegal crossings for decades.

What's new about the practice now?

Nothing new, but the activity has increased as of late.
