MSM is working hard to normalize lawlessness.

"Back in 1988, I was on an Amtrak train that was traveling along the southern border in Texas, and the train was boarded by border patrol agents. They even asked me if I was an American citizen; when I said “Yes of course”, they moved on."

If you'd said, "Si," they might have asked to see your papers...

For all we know this happened under Obama, but nobody wanted to turn it into a sob story.

It’s all about narrative.
The lying media can’t hide the deluge of high-profile illegals’ crimes so they are working overtime spinning counter stories.

“So how is this different than what we all encounter with TSA at an airport? Or other public conveyences? Or even being stopped at a roadblock when we are in a private car because it is on a public highway?”

The difference is that, until just a few years ago, the border patrol could only do things like this at an actual border crossing. They recently were granted the power to perform these kinds of checks up to 100 miles inside the actual borders.

Yep, I noticed even the local media was finding and parading out stories of dreamer immigrants being inconvenienced by the supposedly looming threat of deportation during the recent brief shutdown.

It is as if they have a God-given right to be wherever they want and the rest of us have no rights except to pay the bill. I'm starting to agree with Ann Coulter's tongue in cheek article about deporting the Dreamers first. Just because of their obnoxious aggressive entitlement attitude.

A few years ago as in 30 or more? Back in December of 1981, I was returning from a visit to Tijuana heading north of San Diego toward where I lived in the San Gabriel Valley. There was a roadblock which was checking cars and even trunks for illegal alien smuggling.
