LORDSBURG, N.M. — Ranchers and farmers near the U.S.-Mexico border have been finding prayer rugs on their properties in recent months, according to one rancher who asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation by human smugglers.
The mats are pieces of carpet that those of the Muslim faith kneel on as they worship during their unauthorized trek into and through the United States.
"There’s a lot of people coming in not just from Mexico," the rancher said. "People, the general public, just don’t get the terrorist threats of that. That’s what’s really scary. You don’t know what’s coming across. We’ve found prayer rugs out here. It’s unreal. It’s not just Mexican nationals that are coming across."

While I was still with the government in 1999, I took a helicopter tour of the border from Nogales, AZ, to the Naco/Douglas area. I asked the pilot to set down at several locations with an abundance of rubble. I found prayer rugs, Korans and other evidence that not all of the illegals were of Latin ancestry.
PING
But it’s not an emergency, right, Don?
Well just continue to sit here with our thumbs in our asses while we get invaded, because politicians.
These are accurate descriptions about the reality of living on the border. Been there , done that.
...with the demonrats blessing...
How did you know that they were prayer rugs?
Now you know why the democrats are so eager to keep the borders open: so muzzies can come in and make mucho babies and vote democrat.
I have no doubt that the deluge of Invaders crossing our southern border illegally include radical islamists but I find this report a bit dubious.
Why would they en masse leave their prayer rugs there after dragging them halfway around the globe?
I’ve read enough reports from anonymous sources to fill this man’s lifetime quota.
Very, VERY odd to find prayer rugs abandoned. They roll them up. Terry take it with them. It’s a survival item. Why?
Why would they bother to lug in a prayer rug and Koran, and then drop these items in the desert?
And why leave them behind? The devout use them several times a day.
Also odd that they would ditch their Korans after carrying them thousands of miles to the US border.
You’ll have to figure that one out on your own.
So you don’t know how to identify them?
There are solutions to this problem - both government solutions and individual answers.
This is immoral. Those “poor” muslims having to cross such harsh terrain to break into our country.
Seriously? Apply a little critical thought.
You’re a jihadi in the United States illegally. A spotter for the coyote that smuggled you across the border spots some Border Patrol agents approaching, so you gather what you can, assuming you have the time. You’ve taken the effort to look like a Mexican, so you don’t want to get busted with a prayer rug or a Koran in your possession - both of which you can replace once you make contact with your transporter, who’s already inside the United States.
No, asshat, I was a friggin’ CT officer for over 20 years. Do your own research!
Burn ‘em at the Friday Night fish fry.
You could have just said “I’m not really sure.”
