Shocking images show the moment Border Patrol agents thwarted a human smuggling operation in Texas, where they found 33 migrants crammed into a U-Haul in near-100-degree heat.

The US Customs and Border Protection agents were alerted about 10 p.m. June 10 to suspicious activity related to a possible human-smuggling scheme near a McDonald’s restaurant in Van Horn, the agency said.

They approached two vehicles, a Dodge Journey and the U-Haul box truck, and discovered “33 people who were close to perishing due to excessive heat and lack of fresh air in temperatures still hovering near 100 degrees.”

Mines and machine guns at the border would be a more humane option. Then it would be clear to all - DON’T COME.

Did they ask the illegals who were cooking like human hamburgers whether they wanted “fries”? /sarc

When border patrol is “alerted” to a situation, the reality is the cartels are the one’s making the call. It requires all resources in the area to be pulled to the specific scene indicated. In that why, the door is wide open for the main event to move through the area without risk of opposition from police or border patrol.

Yeah, the media likes to ignore those cases where the illegals have all died of suffocation it heat stroke. Nearly 100! Come to Arizona, nearly 100 is a balmy day.

I’ll bet if the driver faced a 10 year prison sentence at hard labor would discourage other folks form doing that. Oh wiat, I forgot that hard labor for prisoners is inhumane no matter what crime the prisoner was convicted of.

Which makes you wonder if these vans are deliberately sent as decoys by the cartels while also double-crossing the immigrant wannabes in the vans who paid full price to the cartels for getting them across the border.

We found they were all arm in arm, singing that familiar ditty: “We’re all Cubans now! (Except for Elian Gonzales)”

Give them each a bottle of Big Red and send them back.

When we lived in TX we had an addition put on. Contractor sent Mexicans. They drank Big Red all day. No water. Just this fruity, sugary, gloppy red crap.
