Helicopters airlifted the injured to three hospitals and the highway briefly was closed.

And who gets stuck with the bill for all this?

"We don't want to stay on top of them because we don't want to cause an accident,"...

Yet if you're a citizen of the US they'll chase you, on city streets and busy highways.

Here we go again. A note to all liberals: Our current insane immigration policy not only is bad for America, it's also responsible for the deaths of hundreds of unfortunate Mexican peasants evey year.

I've been camping in the Picacho area for years. Only recently have I heard about the back roads being used for alien smuggling. When I was at Picacho in July, the park ranger asked me if I saw a Suburban roar through camp loaded with people. That question surprised me. To get around the Border Patrol checkpoint at Winterhaven (just west of Yuma), the smugglers are driving on 40 miles of bad road to circumvent it. And my liberal friends wonder why I bring firearms with me when I'm out in the boonies.

If were smuggling aliens, I was use a pickup. If I remember correctly, they had a similar incident last week where they got 25 in a pickup.

this is awefull...
The borders need to be opened to all people who want to come here and better themselves -all should be allowed into America at any time & anywhere...In fact we should just build railroads and transport them by tax payer funded amtrack club cars (with fully stocked bars)

And for these immigrants the people of the USA should gladly pay for education, medical, food ,dental ,& buy them homes and cars
-give them "good" jobs (with day care), honor any and all their religons & maintain any native cultures they bring with them -and make sure that they all have at a minimum...a half way decent above ground pool

The tone of this article is anti Border Patrol and apologetic towards illegals. What a shame.

An SUV believed to be carrying illegal immigrants evaded U.S. Border Patrol agents, then overturned on a desert highway, killing four people and leaving 17 others injured, authorities said.

Ambulance chasing lawyers descended on the crash scene moments later...illegals soon to be America's newest millionaires.

...meanwhile, Tom Ridge tells Americans, the borders can't be sealed off effectively because of "cultural and political" reasons.

Homeland Insecurity bump.

Mexican officials in the past have criticized U.S. enforcement agencies for high-speed pursuits of suspected illegal immigrants.

Why should we care what officials of a third-world country have to say about our enforcement agencies? They should shut their yaps and keep their criminals at home where they belong.

I have a feeling we're going to start seeing more and more agressive incidents along the border. These people are being told they have every right to be here, that this is really their land and that the evil gringos stole the land from Mexico and that it's the gringos who need to leave.
