How can 120 illegals make it across the border and how can you fit 120 illegals in 1 home ?


The sticker next to the door in my house says “Maximum Occupancy 130”.

So I suppose it can be done, especially if you sleep in shifts. ;-)

We find 5-gallon drums of human waste along the roads of Maryland all the time; so much for lining up for the bathroom.

The Great Giveback Chicago landscaper, ecologist and urban poo-pioneer Nance Klehm took waste recycling to the community scale with her “Humble Pile” project: For three months, 22 participants pooped into 5-gallon buckets instead of their toilets and brought them to Klehm to be emptied into aerated 32-gallon garbage cans in an undisclosed location. After 11 months, the 50 garbage cans were dumped into one large pile. After another year of composting with only comfrey and some old straw, Klehm delivered a fluffy compost — that tested negative for fecal bacteria — in 2-pound bags printed with “The Great Giveback.”

Another post this morning that does not mention the state. I couldn't even tell from reading the linked article. Is it Texas?

Yep, looks like Texas. Interesting comments to the article at the link, did you check those out at all? A relative of an illegal from El Salvador had quite a story to tell.

I was thinking, ‘Scotland’-you know, Edinburg, then, maybe, Pennsylvania, some place like that with names from the old country, then, reading the comments, detected a shocking lack of curiosity as to where in the entire world this story hails from, as I find that info vital, and I just give up, thinking, maroons!

Gonna get so flamed and lectured for not having taken the time to look it up and hit all the links and do the research

But as of now I don’t know if this is down the street from me or somewhere in minnesota

Instead of sending troops to Syria....send them to the Mexican border. We seem to have problems with refugees here

But...of course....both parties are paid for by the Mexican Drug Cartels

I live just west of Port St. Lucie, Florida.
Within an hour and a half drive are probably 10 too twenty towns that are mostly illegal pickers and field hands that work for big sugar, big citrus and big cattle.
Indiantown, Labelle, Pahokee, Belle Glades, East Bay, and on and on all have majority illegals,
Ice has NEVER been there.

120? That sounds more like illegal Chinese restaurant workers...

Well good...Now that they have been discovered, we can get them signed up for welfare, get ‘em each a home of their own, an obama phone and maybe a car, plus some food stamps...Kick in a little spending money as well...

Hey, I don’t mind...Maybe I can move into the slums where it’s cheaper to live so I will have more money to give to these nomads...
