Its a blessing to live in Texas, mere hours away from one of our borders that has a little problem with immigrants coming across.

The amount of corrupt is so severe along the border in most of these little towns it'd take a miracle to put a good dent on stopping immigration. Just the other day two high ranking border patrol officals were arrested here in San Anotnio SMUGGLING immigrants.

I agrre wholehearted that it is wrong and when caught they should be sent straight back home, but keeping them out.....I dont see that happening.

Unless we train zombies and use El Diablo witchcraft to scare them away...

Guardsmen on border accused of running smuggling ring

LAREDO, Texas -- Three National Guardsmen assigned to the Texas-Mexico border were accused of running an immigrant smuggling ring after 24 immigrants were found inside a van that one of them was driving, a U.S. attorney said Monday.

The three, arrested late Thursday and Friday, were arraigned Monday on a federal charge of conspiring to transport illegal immigrants.

Pfc. Jose Rodrigo Torres, 26, and Sgt. Julio Cesar Pacheco, 25, both of Laredo, and Sgt. Clarence Hodge Jr., 36, of Fort Worth, were arrested near Laredo.

A Border Patrol agent found 24 illegal immigrants inside a van Torres was driving along Interstate 35 near Cotulla, Texas, about 68 miles north of the border, prosecutors said. Torres was in uniform at the time of his arrest Thursday.

The van was leased by the National Guard, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

Prosecutors accused Hodge of helping Torres pass through a Border Patrol checkpoint on the highway by making it look like the two were conducting Guard business.

Pacheco was accused of recruiting soldiers to transport the migrants for $1,000 to $3,500 a trip. He and Hodge were arrested Friday.

Keep talking, the more ethnocentric and arrogant you sound the more your arguments falter. Especially when those arguments are against American arrogance in the first place.

Your concept of what you think the American military is comprised of, and what America is comprised of, is franky wrong. I know many soldiers, and well the army has its issue it is made up of dedicated and honorable men and women, at least in large part.

I don't know you well enough but apparently my brand of humour is not appreciated by you. Rather than turn this into a flame, I'll just end it like the original point that started this.

Why argue/listen to arguments on U.S. security from a canadian? Why dignify the remarks with a response?

Yeah, let's call iran, syria, north korea, china, and everyone else outside of our country. I'm sure they could give us a ton of insight on how to make the U.S.A. a
"better place".

Maybe we could ask them what they think of us too. We could then go over there and give all the dictators, terrorists, and the french a big hug, I'm sure that would solve all our problems. Hey Osama let's have tea!
