Gee, do you think their efforts will be hindered because there will be fewer illegals trying to cross because they know the border patrol has been increased.

They have one aid station in Arizona and one in Sonora. They'd be just as well off closing the one in Arizona...

This crap just drives me nutz.
So now the BP isn't providing quick enough rescue service?
Bovine Dung !
I just read a story where Illegals are using cell phones to call BP Rescue helicopters to come to the rescue--when they're tired of walking, thirsty and need some lemonade, or whatever.
I ask the question before and I'll ask again, HOW MANY times has the US Border Patrol crossed over into MEXICO to rescue MEXICANS and then bring them into the USA ????
And HOW FAR into MEXICO have they gone for such rescues????

I'd love to know if that has happened myself.

If you go by published reports, the BP has not gone into Mexico to rescue people. The US has provided medical care to folks who come through the POE...I take that back, in at least one extroardinary incident several years ago, there was a two-bus collision just south of the border where ambulances were dispatched from Nogales, I believe, to bring victims north for treatment.

That kind of humanitarian aid has been rendered, but not on an individual basis that I'm aware of.

Those "humanitarians" would better expended their effort convincing illegal aliens not to try crossing the desert.

Agreed, 100%. Even better if the government of Mexico did so. We know they can do it...they did it in April with Grupo Beta...

US Border Patrol Agents never intentionally cross into Mexico. If they did Mexican authorities regardless of their intentions would quickly arrest them. Once an agent crosses that border he leaves all his authority and constitutional rights behind.

Why stop at Mexico? There is more land south. Let's take Kuba too!

The battle for Cuba is coming. When old man Castro finally kicks the bucket, the Cubans in Miami are gonna want their country back. Whether they and the modern day Cubans will get along remains to be seen.

Seems to me that these groups are aiding and abetting criminals.

These do-gooders think they are doing good deeds but in essence are just perpetuating more border jumping and deaths.
