Somehow I doubt this was a redneck.

23 humans in one truck? Sounds like we got some trafficking going on down there....

"It's unknown whether or not (the victims) were illegal, but it's possible,"

23 people stuffed into one pickup. Naw, couldn't be illegals, right?

Outlaw pickup trucks.

This further demonstrates the need for sweeping gun control.

ok I can just imagine people are going to pile on about how idiot it is to hav so many or any in the bed of a pickup truck, but I just watched “Machine Gun Preacher” and when people are desperate, as many are in this part of Texas, you “do what you have to do.”

In Machine Gun Preacher, Sam Childers is trying to save a bunch of kids from being conscripted and used by the LRA in Sudan, but doesn’t have enough space in the pickup, so he leaves a bunch of them for the return ride, but when he returns for them they are all dead.

Don’t you think if there were good alternatives the poor pawns in the Texas pickup would have chosen differently? This is a tragedy and we should pray that these folks’ situations improve.

The obvious answer is to ban all motor vehicles. That would save 40,000 lives per year. Oh, and don’t forget bicycles. That would save another 700-800.

did not immediately know the names...


Instead of using “John or Jane Doe” they need to use “Juan or Rosita Gonzalez.”

Things have changed in Texas.

I am just saying, if there were easy answers, don’t you think people would have turned to them?

23 people were loaded inside both the truck's cab and bed.

did not immediately know the names and ages of the victims.

Translation: They haven't stolen IDs yet...

Border Patrol will assist with the investigation.

Shazamm!

Best answer would have been an alarm on the theater back door.

I have seen loads of partying teenagers, poor families of all colors with granny in the back, and Mexican workers all overloaded into a pickup truck. When you crash a pickup truck with lots of people in the back it will be ugly. I am not sure how they got this many people in one. You can’t really outlaw poverty or stupidity even though I am sure the Democrats will keep trying with various regulations.

These folks were on Obama’s “road to citizenship”.

If our boarder were closed - and if our immigration laws were enforced - and if our treasures weren’t handed out so freely, this event would have never happened. Those 12 people would not be dead, at least not on our soil.

Instead of two trees, they could have easily t killed a family of U.S. citizens who were traveling while on vacation.

Obama’s fault.
