Good news. Congrats to whomever is cracking down.

Come on guys, it's juat like the college pranks, how many people can fit in a telephone booth/VW. These people are just trying out for the record of people stuffed in a home in the suburbs. Reality shows abound.

Were they undocumented immigrants or illegal aliens??? Or is it economic refugee? May I suggest "persons of uncertain origin"???

[GoRepGo]

Incredible. Unfortunately, it seems like we are too many years down the road of a bad situation in which undocumented illegal aliens have flowed, unrestricted, into our nation,gaining a foothold and choking our towns, social services and the like. Now, lets bust and round up the 1,000's of other "drop houses" all over the United States.

How many of the illegal aliens spoke Arabic and had Cuban coins in their pockets?

In 25 years, these same people will be suing the US government for the fees thay paid their coyote, plus interest and claiming social security benefits based on the earnings they would have lied about had they been allowed to continue their all expenses paid journey.

[hsmomx3]

Not sure. I just wish we could send them back the way the US sends Haitians back when they are seen off the coast of Florida.

And no one in the neghborhood thought anything was "funny"???

Good news indeed!

[Cowboy Bob]

They should be tatooed with a big "I" (Illegal) on their foreheard, and then shipped back to Mexico.

The property next door to me was used as a drop house for about 5 months. What a thrill that was!

[SpyGuy]

I want to know who the owner of the house is and see him or her put in federal prison for a long, long time. Obviously someone with a lot of money if the estate has its own guest house. And since the owner has so much money, he/she should get the bill for prosecuting and sending back all these ILLEGAL INVADERS.

Police said they found an estimated 150 undocumented immigrants criminals who violated the immigration laws of the United States

200 undocumented immigrants

illegally crossing the border in a time of WAR, not good....

I bet it was! Traffic, traffic and more traffic! - oh- and don't forget the nefarious noises throughout the night. Somebody around the neighborhood, where this occured, HAD to know that something was askew. Or maybe the neighbors were once in a "safe house" themselves....

I wonder how many people nowadays really notice anything at all about their neighbors? Robert Frost's observations about good walls were never more true...

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

I wonder if the home is subject to confiscation as it presumably would be if it were used to grow pot plants or if the Feds could assert that it was bought using the proceeds from immigrant smuggling.

Sad but all too true. Fortunately I have pretty good neighbors who keep an eye out for "unusual" activity.

Baseline Road and 14th Street

Wait a minute...isn't that near the Japanese Gardens, where all the roses and carnations come from? Is that really an upscale neighborhood?

I've only been through there a couple of times in the last 2 or 3 years, but...is my memory that bad?

[IreneGOP]

I'll bet these smugglers (coyote's) and illegals from Mexico and South America were arrested and thrown behind bars before awaiting a a quick deportation from the USA. :angry sarcasm:
