Marijuana seized after agents catch smugglers using ramps to drive over border fence (Campo, CA)
Signs on San Diego ^ | 4/21/07 | By Debbi Farr Baker

This was today at 130-131. West of Campo, not east. One Minuteman observed, others monitored on the radio.

SAN DIEGO – Border Patrol agents in East County seized hundreds of pounds of marijuana valued at almost three-quarters of a million dollars Wednesday from a truck that was driven over the border on metal ramps.

An agent was patrolling the area about two miles east of Campo at 7:30 a.m. when he noticed a suspicious-looking 2006 Nissan Frontera heading westbound on state Route 94, said Supervisory Border Patrol agent Richard E. Smith.

One of them turned and pointed a gun at the agent but did not fire

It's a good thing the agents didn't fire also or our pro-ILLEGAL alien president would have them in jail by now.

What a monster fence!

That must be the kind of fence the whiners point to when they say “fences don’t work!”

If those people used that same ingenuity WITHIN their own economy in Mexico, their country would be alot better off.

I agree. The problem though is that their Gov is even shittier than ours.

I even think between the main fences are eletric fences that not only shock you, but also kill you.

Ladycalif, I have been screaming for years to the lame in this country that the best stopgap measure we can use in this fight is to be vigilant as citizens. I'm no longer on the border but have done my part in the past.

No need for more Gov on the border for patrol issues. Get Busy.

Let the Gov work on the core problems of Gov in Mexico.
If these people had a shot at life in Mexico they wouldn't be streaming here.

I'm happy to watch the line as a citizen while the Gov leans on our neighboring Gov for reform.

Problem is that our Gov isn't leaning on Mexico.
In the meantime I suggest we continue to shame the politicians with our own actions

That fence is a little short of 4 miles long (separating Ceuta from Morocco) and it doesn’t go through the middle of a river and two lakes, like it would between Texas and Mexico.

I would just love to see the mexicans try to ramp a 14 foot tall double fence with razor wire!

I would go buy a new camcorder for that!
