WATCH: Migrants Land Boat on California Beach 100 Miles from Border
Breitbart ^ | 12/02/2018 | Bob Price

Posted on 12/02/2018 10:02:09 AM PST by Enlightened1

Residents of a California beach community witnessed a surprising incident as a small boat packed with illegal aliens made landfall. The migrants made their way to the beach resort located about 100 miles from the Mexican border in a small panga boat.

Officials with the Laguna Beach Police Department tweeted a video showing the boat making landfall early Thursday morning and 13 illegal aliens running on shore. Police say that U.S. Border Patrol agents responded quickly and took custody of seven of the migrants and two suspected human smugglers who were allegedly waiting to pick up the migrants, the Orange County Register reported.

Laguna Beach Emergency Operations Coordinator Jordan Villwock told the local newspaper, “They (local residents) saw two men running for the cliffs. Officers were on scene in five minutes and immediately detained the two men who had ditched their life vests on the sand.”

A short time later, police found five more men hiding in the bushes and placed them in custody.

U.S. Border Patrol Agent Vincent Pirro told the local newspaper that of the two smugglers, one was a U.S. citizen and the other, an illegal alien on a “non-immigrant visa overstay.”

Officials said the panga boat is designed to carry up to 15 passengers. The video above shows 13 men running away from the boat and Border Patrol agents found 13 life vests, the Register reported. The agents seized the boat and nine gas cans.

Pirro said these types of long journeys are not that uncommon for human smuggling operations. “We see them leave from Ensenada a lot. They go around the Coronado Islands and north. They’ve gone as far as Half Moon Bay,” the agent explained.

Invaders irregular navy - they probably use or will use mini-subs like the cartels. The US is now entering a new phase of naval mine warfare - sounds like those waters could be fruitful testing grounds.

Please give us more warning next time. We could prepare the “Welcome immigrants. We love you” signs. s/

Probably happening every night for the last 40 years all along the CA coastline, which is virtually unguarded.

D-Day, as in Democrat Day. What about the chairperson
of the local county Democrat Central Committee. Was
he/she there with a handful of voter registration forms?

They're at the CA DMV getting their drivers licenses and registering to vote.

If Democrats thought illegal immigrants were voting Republican, they’d build the wall and change the laws in about 2 seconds.
