"If, as DHS maintains, it is merely honoring U.S. treaty obligations, that is laudable and to be encouraged."


Bullcrap!

If there is such a treaty, it was snuck in on the American public by an inept and possibly traitorous Congress and signed by a complicit president.

There is nothing laudable about it.

I don't know if this is officially spelled out in a treaty or not, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.

If we knew a group was going to protest on our northern border and expected there would be a counter protest in the Canadian side and that there might be a potential for some conflict, I would expect that we would notify the Canadian government so they could have law enforcement prepared to deal with anything that might happen on their side of the border while we dealt with our side.

It's part of cooperating on border security and being good neighbors.

We do have treaties with Mexico about cooperating on border security. Mexico obviously doesn't live up to their obligations under them, and their government makes clear statements that make it obvious that they have no intention to live up to their obligations, and they are in many cases working in opposition to their obligations.

Mexico is not cooperating with us on securing the border, except for some cooperation on smuggling.

We need to stop treating the Mexican government as a ally on this issue, and start treating them as the enemy that they are in regards to illegal immigration.

Hi G. Mason,

Been a while since I spoke with you. We had talked once about me coming to your area to fish. With gas prices what they are it don't look likely anytime soon.

Anyway, here's something funny I picked up on another site:

The following is from an e-mail I received. No source for the story was given, and I doubt its validity, but thought some of you might find it amusing (or inspirational).

The Homeowner's Association, in a small community in Washington., were having a terrible problem with trash on the side of the roads around their neighborhood. The reason is the construction of six big new homes which are being built around their subdivision.
Wallace said the trash is being generated by the Mexican work crews at the construction sites. (McDonald bags, Coke Bottles, pizza boxes, Burger King bags, etc.). They have pleaded with the site supervisors and the general contractor to no avail; called the City, County and the Police and got no help. So guess what some people in his community did?


They organized about twenty folks, named themselves the Inner Neighborhood Services" (INS) and started going out at lunch time to "police" the area themselves. What they did while picking up the trash is HILARIOUS!
They got some navy blue baseball caps and had the initials "INS" in gold put on the caps. It doesn't take a rocket scientist, however, to understand what they hoped people would think it meant.

Well, the day after their first pick-up detail - with them wearing the INS caps and some carrying cameras - 46 out of 68 of the construction workers did not show up for work the next morning! And they haven't come back yet! It has been ten days.

Now I understand the general contractor is madder than **** , but can't say anything publicly, because he could be busted for hiring "illegal aliens."
Wallace and his bunch can't be accused of impersonating INS folks because their Homeowner Association allows them to vote to form new committees within the association. They also informed the INS about what they were doing in advance. According to Wallace, the INS basically said "Have at it."
