Tijuana-Otay Mesa tunnel discovered
Immigration News Daily ^ | 17 Nov 2005 | Immigration News Daily

Posted on 11/17/2005 3:25:11 AM PST by AZRepublican

Mexican and U.S. authorities are investigating a cross-border tunnel found yesterday near the Otay Mesa Port of Entry. The Tijuana police department, in a statement released last night, said the tunnel was about 50 feet long, and its entrance was accessible from a street on the Mexican side. The tunnel, which was found about 5 p.m. Wednesday, is connected to a sewage or water drain line on the U.S. side, Tijuana police officials said. Lauren Mack, a spokeswoman with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, said the passageway was being guarded overnight on both sides, and U.S. authorities would learn more about it today. "Once morning comes then we will be able to bring equipment in to start digging it up to know more about what we got," she said. Mack said the tunnel's discovery was part of the agency's ongoing investigation on secret passageways along the border. Mexican authorities said it was a collaborative effort.

The Black Avenger took pictures of illegals coming out of the sewer drains. I was really amazed.

We really need to do something about this, or it'll be our cars burning next.

It's just too expensive and impractical to do anything about our borders so let's just surrender:

The real crime of this story is that crime has more opportunity than workers in Mexico. If the government, the unions and the upperclass spanish desendents where as creatvie in sharing ideas and trying out new ones, nobody would leave Mexico, because of a lack of jobs.

Perhaps if we moved Jerkoff Chertoff's office to those same sewers, then Homeland Security might actually be doing something about this crap!

You know...since the anti-War protesters got the courts to back them when they refuse to pay "War Taxes"...maybe the American Public ought to simply pull the Atlas Shrugged and say "Since you don't represent us, we ain't paying for it!"

Lets see how fast certain policies change when the $$$ dries up!

Not to worry. Those illegals/legals are going to go back and fix everything according to this poster:

I agree. What the Mexican government has to fear is the children of immigrants born in this country growing up in opportunity, looking at their parents homeland and using there wealth and power here to change Mexico.

"Mexican authorities said it was a collaborative effort."

Yeah, right. Some of the millions of Americans attempting to smuggle themselves into Mexico prolly engineered it.

Some statesmen tried that in 1861. The government of the union forced them to dearly pay up.

I smell a rematch...since I'm tired of being a slave to Gub'Mint, time to get down to business.

I'm tired of "Washington Aggression"...
