EL PASO - They came in pairs, by the dozens, hundreds. In one group, as many as 400 migrants crossed the border here in a single, massive group. Many are families. And some would soon sleep for the first time on U.S. soil -- but out in the open, under the stars because federal agents are having a difficult time processing them and getting them to shelter.

Romero, 49, meanwhile, kept his eyes on the rugged dirt road, as radio chatter, once busy with alerts, was mostly silent. It would pick up again, he assured, before sunset.

He pointed across the Rio Grande to Mexico, where smugglers sit and watch patiently, sometimes alongside migrants, directing when and where they should run into or simply walk across the border to turn themselves in.

Romero said one smuggler even sits on a sofa directing human traffic.

You are dead on target. Why these Hispanic border patrol types? I say use claymores with trip wires, toe poppers, plus snipers and machine guns. If you dare cross you should face death. I left dead NVA sappers in our company sector of the wire for several days. My Col. smelled the stench at breakfast on day 3. I got a verbal ass chewing I’ll never forget.

I’m glad you’re not in charge of anything anymore, probably too weak to rack a slide, and probably in a nursing home.

The United States Congress,most Governors and mayors and a great part of the American judiciary want them here and are giving them rights and benefits that surpass American citizens. The wall will not save us and was a big lie.

E Verify. Mandatory deportation of all illegals. Broken window theory prosecution of companies and persons who hire illegals. No more money to colleges and universities that can't keep up with their visa students, etc.

Yes, the wall is too late. Demographics, political and corporate interests have destroyed the country. Kennedy immigration reform and the Reagan amnesty doomed the US.

I wish POTUS could sign an EO cutting off ALL welfare to non-citizens.

It’s been a national emergency for *decades*. Only a stupid ignorant Democrat wouldn’t be able to recognize or admit this is clearly what it is.

So obvious a solution that one must ask why President Trump doesn’t advocate it?

Thank you.

I do wonder, just about every day.

Why do you suppose he does not, other than the stinking courts?

But, what’s to lose?? They injunction everything else he does.

Are there laws preventing the military from defending the boder aggressively as in shoot to kill if they cross or are we just letting the Democrats dictate that we need to help these poor people?

“A person is guilty of criminal trespass if,
knowing he is not licensed or privileged to
do so, he enters or remains in any place.”
Charge them all at a state or local level.
Local police, sheriff’s, and state police
would have the jurisdiction to arrest.
They would be guilty of committing a
crime, this making them deportable by ICE.

He could be. At least one of his posts on this site refers to smoking 4 X more powerful pot. I never heard of any druggies until mid 1969. Then it got worse in 73-74. We even had some in SF by mid 69 . The SGM used to get me to go through our EM quarters with him in late 69. We had great SGM’s.
