If these were illegals running from the law my give-a-damn meter is registering ZERO!

I saw “9 killed, 9 injured” and “Arizona” and that was my first thought—this was probably a truck slap full of illegals that wrecked while being pursued.

granted, but there has been a chain of Care Flight Helicopters landing and taking off at the site, 9 trauma patients, hospital stays, surgeries, etc. guess who is going to pay for that.

It’s a small sedan. Eighteen people. Nine dead. Perhaps some were already dead of suffocation.

That's nothing. In 2001 twenty-seven students at Penn State Abington piled into a Volkswagen New Beetle and unofficially broke the world record.
Round them up and send them home.

guess who is going to pay for that.It's getting to be a monthly occurrence. This is why the Tucson metro area, population one million, has only one trauma center, with four beds. The others were bankrupted.

The 10 injured people were flown to Tucson Medical Center, as well as Good Samaritan Hospital and Maricopa County Medical Center in Phoenix.Your tax dollars at work.
DPS confirmed that the occupants of the SUV were undocumented immigrants.
Now THERE's a surprise.
It's not known at this point if any coyotes were among the dead.
One can only hope.
