Well no, don't be too hasty, Brownie. Over 3,000 Americans dying wasn't reason enough to seal the borders, but now 2 Mexicans have died.

Now, we might see some action.

The only action you are going to see is a bigger push for amnesty to keep things like this from happening.

Five will get you ten that these people will not be deported but will be allowed to stay in the US. Naw - lets not solve the problem. Lets make it bigger by encouraging more people to try the same approach.

Sure the truckers should be in jail for what they did. But where does our government fit into the equation for allowing this to happen in the first place for refusing to enforce our immigration laws?

I read TITLE 8, CHAPTER 12, SUBCHAPTER I, Sec. 1103. to say that:

He (The Attorney General) shall have the power and duty to control and guard the boundaries and borders of the United States against the illegal entry of aliens and shall, in his discretion, appoint for that purpose such number of employees of the Service as to him shall appear necessary and proper.

If the government was doing its job by keeping the aliens out of the United States we would not have people dying in the Arizona desert or at truck stops in Texas.

We do not have to write new laws or pass new legislation. The laws are already on the books. Why aren't they being enforced?

The politicians just don't get it. The unguarded miles and miles of spacious border areas need to be sealed. There should only be an entry and exit port system used on the mexican and canadian borders.
