If the
American Border Patrol accomplishes nothing else, they can chalk this one up as a major victory. This is precisely why the ABP is here on the border, to prove that there are better ways to monitor the border, that the problem is worse than is being presented, and to shame the powers that be into doing something about it.
Not until the ABP flew their off-the-shelf RC airplanes equipped with off-the-shelf cameras did the Arizona Congressional delegation and Homeland Security start seriously talking about putting up drones here. ABP is really proving its worth and demonstrating what they're all about.

Thank you, you've made my point so nicely...!
Wonder what's next for Glen and the ABP? We have a mechanism for spotting them...now we need to collect 'em, corral 'em, and cull 'em, and send the 'innocents' back across the border...way back!
I use the term innocents to differentiate those whose crime is crossing from those whose crimes go further, i.e., rape, robbery, and pillagery!
