HOLLYWOOD Nineteen Cuban migrants were taken into custody Monday morning shortly after a speedboat dropped them off on a beach just north of Sheridan Street, news partner NBC 6 reported.
The migrants were dropped off by a go-fast boat on the 3500 block of Ocean Boulevard around 6 a.m. The group included 12 men, four women and three children. All were reported in good condition.
The Border Patrol was questioning the group about who brought them to the United States and why. Most or all are expected to be granted permission to stay under the government's wet foot, dry foot policy for Cubans.

Well I'm sure some governmental social worker will quickly be letting them all know that Republican's are racists and that they must vote for Dems or die.

And still NO strict border control?

It's only because of Cuban-Americans, that President Bush is in the White House. He would not have won Florida without them in 2000.

I wonder if the Commy down South becomes President of Mexico, some clowns in congress will fight to give Mexicans the same status as Cubans.
