San Diego – Tijuana border
Posted on 09/22/2009 7:07:45 PM PDT by rdl6989
U.S. authorities have closed the San Ysidro Port of Entry on the border with Mexico after a gunfight there early Tuesday.
San Ysidro is the nation's busiest border crossing. Roughly 40,000 vehicles cross there daily from Mexico.
Three vans loaded with suspected illegal immigrants tried to speed through the crossing Tuesday afternoon, drawing gunfire from at least two U.S. agents, authorities said.
Three people in the vans and a traveler in a nearby car were injured in the failed attempt to cross into San Diego from Tijuana. About 70 people inside the vehicles were taken into custody, according to authorities.

Good leave it closed

After this, you would think that the open borders crowd would take a hint.
And if this country had any guts all 70 would have been shot and their bodies thrown back across the border as a warning. Do that a few times and that will stop the invasion.
San Diego – Tijuana border
San Ysidro is the nation's busiest border crossing. Roughly 40,000 vehicles cross there daily from Mexico....and only four go back. ;') So, where'd all that "cash for clunkers" money wind up?
Sorry, I guess with the news out of Colorado and New York, I'm a little bit paranoid about peaceful muslims arriving via south of the border to deliver backpacks at an SEC game or an amusement park.
Thats a very interesting question.
I'm sure our 'betters' will tell us, aren't you?
I won’t be holding my breath waiting for the answer.
How long before Janet Napalitano expresses her dismay that we actually fired our weapons? I’m sure she’s upset that nobody briefed her before unholstering.
“About 70 people inside the vehicles were taken into custody, according to authorities.”
This seems to contradict the idea that illegal immigration is lessening.

We are so inhumane and uncaring. They just want to provide for their families.
