ALAMO, Texas -- Federal agents acting on a tip found 58 illegal immigrants of various nationalities crowded in a single-story residence, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Friday.

Agents on Thursday found 15 women and 43 men, of which there were 33 Mexicans, 19 Brazilian, three Hondurans, two Salvadorans and one Peruvian.

The illegal immigrants were taken to the agency's Weslaco station pending formal removal back to their home countries.

More fury for ya, from my neck of the woods...






I'd send you back with your baby, which, following the status modus operandi for illegals, you gave birth to here in order to receive benefits. Thanks for asking.

My point: Many Middle Easterners are entering our southern borders illegally, posing as Hispanics. It is easily done, if they maintain silence.

Not that an illegal person would care, but isn't crowding people into a house dangerous and illegal?

It saves them from the horrors of sweat shops back home.

More of the productive immigrants doing what Americans won’t do. Why don’t they go make those gestures at some official in the Mexican government?

I’ll take up donations for the bus fare. It would be cheaper than all the benefits they’re getting now, plus the drain on our medical system, and auto insurance rates going up, crime rates rising, for which they’re seldom caught or prosecuted, identity fraud and theft, ad nauseum.

Yes, and this is how we’re fighting the WOT, by leaving our back door wide open to them.

15 men, 43 women. i like those odds.

Yeah, after this were probably looking at 43 pregnant women jamming the local hospitals, all at tax payer expense.

I imagine the stench tipped them off. We used to live next to slum lord housing that you couldn’t stand downwind it, the stench would knock your socks off.

No way 58 people in a building that small could not smell.

I could probably squeeze 30 renters like that into my house and maybe make $6,000 per month.

You could never stand the smell.

Now there is a good question. And we will do those jobs, just not at the slaves. Ann Coulter says illegals should be able to sue business for not paying them fair market value. She says that things would change over night, if you did that.

A journey of 12,000,000 steps starts with 58 deportees.

The Fedgov has been saying 12 million now for 10 years.

The number is closer to 25 million.

The problem is, by the time they got the call to go to another Bush clown house, arrested and processed all these people, offered them food, medication, counseling, brought in interpreters to determine their needs, 1000 more have entered the country illegally.

I wouldn’t doubt that that idea will occur to them, that would be great, we’d see the government do a flip-flop on illegal immigration so fast, they’d be chartering the Concorde to ship ‘em home.

They are “illegal aliens.” They are not immigrants.

*****Gotta stop this crap from happening in the first place, or eventually (and when I say eventually, I mean sooner than our leaders seem willing to admit), the U.S. as we have known it will simply implode*****

Will happen just as the thread written quite a while back about the house whose cellar is full of crap. That house will implode from the gases made.

I am not trying to high jack this thread, but I do want all of us to think about something:

A lot of us are standing up for border security, but none of us are organized in regards to what we expect from a Presidential Candidate.

Seems to me, if all of us who want a secure border were to organize around a Presidential candidate who supports border security too, we could make a pretty big splash in this next election.

In six months, Duncan Hunter will build the fence. This is his promise to us, if he is elected. I think Hunter is the strongest border security candidate out there. Right now, he has no money, no name recognition, and no chance. But Hunter speaks loud and clear about border security.

If we are all so serious about border security, then why not support one of the most, if not the most strongest candidate in regards to border security? Hunter built a fence on the border near San Diego and it works. He passed a bill to build 800 miles of fence from California to Mexico. Hunter says that it is going to slow (like 11 miles have been build in the last year). Hunter says he will build it in sections at the same time and it will be complete in six months when he becomes President.

Some will say he is not electable. Fine, but this is the primary. This is when we can get our issue on the table. Let's start a bidding war on who can build the fence the fastest. If other candidates see Hunter getting steam because he is strong on border security, the other candidates will chime in. But you got to get behind the cause or there will be no momentum.

So, I am asking all of you folks who want to secure the border to please go check out Duncan Hunter. If you are a strong Conservative, he will not disappoint you:

* A+ National Rifle Association
* 100% Eagle Forum
* 100% National Right to Life
* 92% Lifetime rating, American Conservative Union
* 100% Concerned Women for America
* 100% Christian Coalition
* 100% Campaign for Working Families

Plus, Hunter served in Nam, voted for the war in Iraq and his son has been there. And his Momma was born in Texas.
