Can you ask those you work with if they know anything about how the state of North Carolina might figure into the trafficking of illegal aliens, whether the aliens are Mexicans or not Mexicans? In other words, is North Carolina a state to which aliens are transported? Is NC a state where they can easily obtain driver's licenses?

I am very curious...

I will do some research on my end. I just wondered if you and others had specific knowledge regarding North Carolina.

I recall some of them are from NC. I'll go pick thier brains and get back to you . . .

Morning Donna. I'm confused (normal for me) as to what North Carolina has to do with the Wisconsin story. If you can fill me in I would appreciate it.

But, as far as aliens in N.C. I do know that the Mexican population has boomed in the last 10+ years. Twenty years ago you rarely saw Mexicans, heard Spanish spoken or saw Mexican food items in the grocery. Now it's everywhere.

The Mexicans that were from NC no longer work here but that’s where they were from. I don’t know the significance of that but there you go. The ones that are here still paid a “coyote” to get them across the border. One of them had enough money to buy the papers from him. The other two had to buy them in Milwaukee. At a well known grocery store called . . . well, better not. . . Being a trusted non-mexican they didn’t seem to have a problem answering any questions.

Using the information I got from them I could easily melt right into society with a different identity, little money and remain virtually undetected. WOW.

It sends me chills to think that MEs have learned Spanish and have taken on the identities of Mexicans.

I was also told that beefing up the border security doesn’t really slow down the pilgrimage, it only makes it very expensive where a lot of people cant afford it. (mexicans not MEs)
