Border Patrol catches, then releases, illegals

The taunting is all being done by the cowardly moron who keeps pinging somebody a MONTH after the conversation ended but doesn't have the intelligence or courage to stay and discuss it.

GO AWAY LYING COWARD!

[knak]

pathetic, why not just send border patrol home and give them their paychecks to sit there?

[JustPiper]

BumPing!

[Little Ray]

Hopefully.
More likely, they would just get sued.

[looscnnn]

"More likely, they would just get sued."

Who would sue? The bad guys would see the constant "training" going on and would not attempt to get in the middle of it. They would move down the line, only to encounter more "training" militias. Eventually they would just stay in their little huts waiting.

[Little Ray]

If the militia caught anybody, the ACLU and various other organizations would be happy to sue on their behalf. And Heaven help 'em if they bold enough to return fire...

"Thousands of illegal immigrants, mostly from Central and South America, are being released into the USA almost immediately after they are picked up by the Border Patrol as part of a policy that U.S. officials acknowledge represents a significant gap in homeland security. The treatment of illegal immigrants from Mexico has not changed. U.S. Border Patrol agents continue to catch and deport waves of Mexican illegals, who last year accounted for most of the 905,000 people caught sneaking into the USA along the 2,000-mile Southwestern border."

At one point in time within the past decade there was a war over the Mexican-American Border.

Mexico won.

The terms of surrender are being worked out between George Bush and Vincent Fox and are time-sensitive with a release date expected to be mid November, 2004.

The conditions of surrender will be published first in the Mexican media, to be followed by a short announcement from a yet to be determined Vincent Fox-appointed official to advise the former American citizens that there is no calm for alarm - Viva La Mexico!

[discostu]

Yeah whatever. Here's something that'll bug all you panicy folks: I've lived in a border state for 29 years and can't read a word of that newspaper, I think it might say something about Fox quitting drinking.

It's time to unleash the states. If the feds don't want to do their job, then it's time to allow the states full authority to set and enforce punishments for illegal aliens caught within their borders.

Actually, no, scratch that. The states should just assert that authority regardless, pursuant to the 10th amendment.

[Little Ray]

Hmmm.
Wouldn't say Mexico won. I wouldn't want to occupy them (they'd make Iraq look postively friendly), but offensively, they couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag.

Would say we were unwilling to fight, maybe? Possibly 'cause somebody might say something harsh about us?

For some reason Americans (us) have a pathological need to be liked. We need to get over it.

There is a group here that don't share that "need to be liked" character trait. Haven't you noticed us yet? "They" sure have. LOL

I know I know Reagan did the same.

But that was PRIOR to 9/11!

All is well... all is great...beep.

You do realize that by posting news articles you are helping a ....

never mind!

How about those Patriots?

Did ya see the half time show?

Actually I wish Texas would just secede from the union and be done with the whole damn thing. This federal crap just aint workin.

[TLI]

AMEN TO THAT!

The days of Texas deriving any benifit from being a member state of the United States Of America, Inc. prety much faided away in the early `70's.

Who would sue?

Apparently you weren't paying attention when one of the border states (I think it was Arizona) was sued for not having enough water stations out in the desert for the illegals entering the country via that route?

Rattle your sabers all you want, if you don't fix the courts, you ain't got 'nothin.

[Marine Inspector]

It's time to unleash the states.

The States are the major problem. The States give the aliens sanctuary and welfare which is a major draw for illegal aliens.

No, the States have failed also.

It’s time for the People to be unleashed.

Hey, I like that water station idea. I've been saying before on these threads that the stations should be equipped with a radio transmitter that notifies the Border Patrol whenever someone pushes the button for water. And then it should wait about 10-15 minutes to dispense the water.

I think that may partly be because of the legal troubles they'd get from the feds if they tried to discriminate legal from illegal. Crazy as that may sound.
