The INS has close to 35,000 armed Law Enforcement officers.

The question should be about whether the weapon and stamps were secured properly?

If it were an inside job, then there would not have been a break-in, the items would have just disappeared slowly over a period of time.

The stamps themselves are not a big issue. Any document made by the stamps, gets run in the systems and if the person with the document can't answer the questions, he's toast.

The admission stamp number has already been disseminated to the other INS offices, so if it is used, we will know about it.

The red ink the INS uses for the stamps is not at all ordinary, and has never been duplicated. So if they use these stamps, the ink they use will not be the same and will be readily identifiable to an Inspector.

Most of this stuff will be used to make documents that illegals will use to get jobs. I doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.

With all due respect, the ink will only be readily identifiable to an Inspector who's paying attention. INS's reputation of late doesn't lend itself to encourage public confidence.

Again respectfully, the folks who were bootlegging fake Virginia driver's licenses last year probably didn't think they would be used by anyone but illegals to get jobs (and gov't benefits). We all know differently now.

Thanks for the info. I heard on the news that only one of those stamps was serialized, however, that could be the media hyping up this story. -T
