Airplane Full of Illegal Immigrants Seized at Texas Border
Breitbart Texas ^ | 9/10/15 | Ildefonso Ortiz

Posted on 09/10/2015 7:02:32 PM PDT by markomalley

Federal authorities have seized a private airplane full of illegal immigrants. The aircraft was being used in an attempt to smuggle seven illegal immigrants from the Texas border into the interior U.S. to avoid immigration checkpoints.

The arrests of the seven illegal immigrants and seizure of the airplane took place on Sunday morning following a routine inspection at the McAllen Miller International airport, information released by the Air and Marine branch of U.S. Customs and Border Protection revealed.

It was during that inspection that authorities found the illegal immigrants hiding inside a Beech King Air E90 aircraft. The airplane’s pilot, a United States citizen, was released as the investigation continues.

Human smugglers using airplanes to fly illegal aliens out of border cities is not an uncommon practice. A similar situation took place in the border city of Harlingen last year, as Breitbart Texas previously reported.

Glad they caught them, but really... 7? Nothing to get excited about.

Whadya mean? Every time someone mentions building a fence, they'll get slapped in the face with this example of how a fence would not have worked.

Wait...What? $14,000 EACH? Flying on a King Air? What nationality are these people? Definitely not Mayans or Indios going to Texas for construction work.

More like $7MM brand new. This one is probably worth $4-5MM.

Sounds to me like some high level illegals. Either Latino elites escaping corruption or high level infiltrators.

How is this being financed? And is it by them, or for them, that the money is changing hands?

The term I use is “race replacement”, which is defined as the elites getting rid of the native white people in favor of docile, brown workers with no concept of civic engagement, with the goal of fragmenting our culture so as to more easily reduce us to serfdom.
