Pretty good Sip and it's all true. I don't blame them for wanting to come here with a deal like that. Don

If you get CAUGHT crossing illegally in those countries, that happens.

If you get caught crossing the Mexican border into the U.S., you are detained, finger printed, and deported.

One month later though, you get to try again.

It's the same as catching Marlins here, catch and release. I don't get it, except with the fish of course.

I just crossed over the border Tuesday from Cancun and the Mexican immigration inspector confiscated my Swiss Army Credit Card. It is about the size of a credity card but a little thicker and it has a tiny knife and tweezers in it, and I received it as an Xmas gift many years ago. He said it could be used as a weapon and I said "what if I throw away the knife and tweezers and keep the card?" He suddenly couldn't understand english and walked away with it. My girlfriend also had some hair conditioner, sunscreen, and suntan lotion that was a little bit more than four ounces, and he confiscated them. She didn't care about the sunscreen and suntan lotion but the hair conditioner cost about 50 bucks and she was REALLY MAD! I tried to pour out some of the conditioner but that was not acceptable to him, he took the whole bottle.

I think the REAL crook is the one who charged her $50 for 4 ounces of conditioner...

We should adopt the Afgan model - shoot on sight. And then build the wall out of the skeletons. -Ed.

It has been reported on Drudge that a AZ Deputy Sheriff was shot with a AK47 by a suspected illegal dope runner.
