Just doing work that 'mericans don't want to do. (i.e., driving headon into oncoming traffic)

How about some of those one-way spikes like they have in parking lots?

[BunnySlippers]

Didn't they know it was supposed to be a day without immigrants!

55 people in a Ford F-350 van? The Border Patrol does not chase?

[CheyennePress]

I see the driver disposed of himself in the proper receptical.

Did you read the article?

[eastforker]

I guess you didn't read the article!

[tame]

Weren't they supposed to take the day off?

[KarlInOhio]

How about some of those one-way spikes like they have in parking lots?

They had it.

From the article: The van passed over a spike strip but its tires had been filled with silicone and did not instantly shred,

Frome the tag line:(If we learn nothing from history, what's the point of having one? ..........If we learn nothing from reading whats the point of clicking on article.

[Redbob]

If only they'd just crash head-on into each other...

[theDentist]

IF they chased and it crashed, bad press. We wouldn't want that, would we? /sarc

Amazingly enough, I did read the article. And the phrase spike strip.

Upright spikes you sling across the traffic lane and pull back once the vehicle drives over it. Looks like they've seen that before.

I mean those 45 degree angled into you bolted into the ground "give us our parking fee or we'll chew you right down to the axle" kind of spike plates.

Ain't no silicone gonna beat that.

Fifty-five people in a van?

Were they all midgets?

[eastforker]

I think that is what they have on the southbound lanes going into Mexico. No body chased them in persuit.

Were they all midgets?

..(placing back of hand on one hip and speaking with a pronouced lisp)..no but very close "friends"

not true. I saw clowns do this at a circus once only it was in a VW bug.

I blame George Bush for this. He gave the green light to Mexicans to treat this nation like shit and to go as loco as they want when they try to invade. We will never seriously prosecute such desperadoes. I would equip the Border Patrol and Customs with RPGs and let them fire on such scum who endanger the public safety.

The pale faced Euro-Spanish Mexican elites laugh themselves to sleep each night when they read how crazy their peons behave in the gringo nation
