Medical Garbage coming into this country from Mexico:
Mexico is using the USA as a garbage dump. Why?
Where's the outrage?

Waste stopped
Border inspector finds bloody medical refuse

SANTA TERESA -- The 18-wheeler was supposed to be importing scraps of fabric and plastic headed for a New Mexico landfill.

Instead, it carried oozing medical waste.

The bales weighed 1,200 to 1,500 pounds, but it was impossible to know how much of the medical waste was mingled with the pieces of fabrics and festive candy-cane plastic bags.

A quick overview found blood-stained gauze and a bag of unidentified, yellowish body fluids, squeezed among the cargo. A mystery blue liquid leaked from a package.

The shipment came from Mexico, but officials declined to name the importer and the shipper, because they committed a civil, not a criminal, violation.

If this is indeed happening then we need to watch it very closely. Stay safe, healthy, armed and prepped.

Officials ALWAYS seem to be denying who criminals and law-violators are. Discarding potentially dangerous to human life materials should be more than a civil violation IMHO. If our shippers did that anywhere in this country, there would be all hell to pay, everyone would know who did it and GWB would be blamed. Once again we protect illegal importation.

Do you remember about a month ago, in a subway in New York, the terminal was shut down, due to a liquid in a coke can by the ATM machine?

The later verdict, was that it was liquid Drano.

There have been other reports of colored liquids in terror shut downs, but I don't recall the details.

Is it something that will go airborne? or get in the water?

To say nothing of all the diseases in those bales.

I would say the whole thing is strange, why would someone from mexico bring medical waste to the U.S. and dump it?

To hire a semi and unload 1200 pound bales, is not a simple
one man operation, something is wrong with this whole scene.

This should be an International incident.

We even have a law against dumping trash in the desert, here.
