Illegal Alien Numbers Rising

"Number of Migrants Illegally Crossing Rio Grande Rises Sharply" - So says a headline in yesterday's New York Times.

In just one except from the article:

"Last week, Border Patrol agents apprehended five Pakistanis and one Afghan, along with two smugglers, near Sonoita, Ariz. Background checks shows those men had no history of suspicious activity, border officials said."

Now, don't those words of "border officials" just give you a warm and fuzzy feeling? Going to feel safer tonight, when you go to bed?

Just what kind of "background ground" check is going to provide a clear history? Are you laughing as hard as I am now? Only it's not a laughing matter! What did Border Patrol officers do - ask their names? Check fingerprints? Yeah, sure... Or maybe they just asked them, "Hey, guys. Any suspicious stuff in your past?"

How do six people (Pakistanis and an Afghan) get to Sonotia, which is southeast of Tucson and 25 miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border? How and when did they get to Mexico? Did they come through Central America?

The U.S. must stop the flood of illegal aliens! Period!
