I haven't seen her film, but I don't need to- I see that stuff in person all the time. You have no idea how many times BP helicopter has awakened us in the wee hours, and how many illegals we have had to personally deal with. It is scary because some are very bad people. We can't all leave home at the same time, due to burglaries or worse. Those who don't live on the border cannot imagine what it is like for those that do. It is another world and it is a war zone. I don't live in a hot spot, but the same things happen all along the border- they just happen more often in the hot spots.

Many people who don't live here don't believe us or think at best we exaggerate. Actually usually we don't tell half of it because we are used to much of what happens so it doesn't seem unusual enough to talk about.

I and many FReepers, I'm sure, believe you. I'm about 100 miles from the border (S.Cal.) and things are getting worse here especially since the illegal aliens have adopted the entitlement attitude following the May day marches.

Texas feels for ya'll Tammy! Hopefully, someone in Washington does also.
