Curious..... Kimble County is NW of San Antonio in the Junciton Tx area.... The article gives very few specifics but I wonder were this guy was going..... Was he traveling on I-10 or some other road in a southerly directions towards Mexico...

"Watch Lou Dobbs tonight and listen to Cong. Ortiz D.Texas, on the border committee. Especially about MS-13. I suppose someone will call him a racist."

Solomon Ortiz (D), Corpus Christi, TX, is only upset because the US sends the Mexican illegals back to Mexico but not the non-mexicans!

Wouldn't call him a racist, but I have called him an idiot on numerous occasions. He has received Rush's Katie Couric Award for asking the stupidest questions.

Let me know your opinion, after watching him tonight.

In a signed statement, Herrera said someone left the cash on his doorstep.

What a lucky guy. Maybe GW will name him Secretary of the Treasury.

Couldn't find anything about it in the Junction Eagle.


"Herrera was pulled over for allegedly changing lanes improperly, a police report said."

County deputy stopping him, makes me think not on I-10.

See? We all thought those emails from Nigeria were a scam. Boy, were we wrong.

If the police find you with cash, (I forget the number...Used to be 10 grand but I believe it's been lowered considerably) they will take it from you, even if they can't find a reason to arrest you...Doesn't matter if you have a withdrawal slip from the bank...

In fact, the banks are now required to report to the police any withdrawal over a certain amount...

Their claim is that you "MAY" be doing something illegal with the money...They will also take your vehicle...And keep it...

It is a crime to carry your own money...And if you get caught, you will lose it...

There is a "pro" Mexican immigrant tilt to him. But he is very good on the MS-13 and the threat of the OTM's. His point was the Mexicans are sent back over the border (at least?)but the OTM's are turned loose with a promise to come to court.

Put me on your list, please?
