In order to become a member of the global community the U.S. must look like the global community. Therefore since citizens won't change to act and live as third world people it must allow third world people in to speed up the process.

Mexican Army Incursions Into The United StatesThe Congressional Immigration Reform Caucus ^
Posted on 01/24/2004 9:54:01 AM PST by Happy2BMe
Incursions
During his travels along the border, Rep. Tancredo learned that the Mexican Army and Law Enforcement Agencies routinely make "incursions" into the U.S. A total of 23 were confirmed by the U.S. government in 2001, and there have been over 115 since 1996. The purpose of these incursions is not totally understood, but U.S. officials have speculated that they are designed to help facilitate the flow of illegal drugs into America, either by creating a diversion or by providing cover for the traffickers. When Rep. Tancredo sent a letter to the Mexican government, the Embassy in Washington, DC sent a curt response to his inquiry, implying that the troops were merely getting lost. Not a single U.S. law enforcement agent on the ground in the southwest has agreed with that explanation. Rep. Tancredos office has begun documenting new incursions as they take place. Most recently, two disturbing incursions have taken place. On May 17th, a Mexican Army unit led an incursion near Ajo, Arizona that ended with a shot being fired at a Border Patrol Agent. The agent was not hurt, but had two of his vehicles windows shot out. On June 14th, the Mexican Army opened fire (with high-powered .308 rifles) on a vehicle with 20 people packed into it. Six of the passengers were injured, two critically. Despite Rep. Tancredos efforts to draw attention to them, each incident received only spotty coverage. You can read the accounts of each incident by following these links: May 17th Incursion: http://www.washtimes.com/national/20020513-27549872.htm http://www.washtimes.com/national/20020523-865103.htm June 14th Incursion: http://www.washtimes.com/national/20020615-91529269.htm The issue of incursions needs to be confronted by the U.S. government before a catastrophic incident involving the loss of life occurs. If you have specific information about an incursion by Mexican military or law enforcement, please contact Rep. Tancredos office at (202) 225-7882 or tom.tancredo@mail.house.gov. You will remain anonymous. |

Not enough people know that this is the truth.

When I was six my family drove from Dallas to Mexico city. I don't remember any problems at all. If you asked me to do it again today I would have you committed for your own safety.

How very true that is. It is not if it will spill over into the US, it is when....

That's why high tech is an excuse to do nothing. What good is it when caught they are put up in a motel, given bus tickets or required to appear at a hearing (often ignored).
His excuse for not hiring 10,000 new border agents...it would be impossible and takes time, but stammered some support for using the NG at the border until agents are trained.
Bush and the venal politicians are under their desks in the fetal position with ear plugs on despite polls to act.
To use BUSH's words on WOT, apply it to the illegals --
Bush and Congress: Either your for us, or against us!
Worse, a terror attack attributed to the border will all but ensure a Hitlary election.

Our own border is more dangerous than Iraq it seems.
You'd never know by watching network news.
