Interesting,
The USMC has some very nicely equipped Whiskey Cobras they could send up
with the border patrol, and OH they are stationed right there at MCAS
YUMA!

I know where you are coming from Jay, my 1st wife was of hispanic
descent, father Nuevo Laredo, mexico and Mom from Bogota Columbia....and
they did not like the wide open borders either. Though my father in law
had a very good paying job he said the illegals kept the pay down for
Mexicans that were here legally.


I never thought about that but he was right.
I think the reason they let them in is they are funding our social security
system with phony ID's. They pay in but will never collect.

They are really good folks and I think very highly of them. Great
family that loved a reason for a fiesta!!!!!

Perhaps we should arm the copter with machine guns and fire back?


No, that would be barbaric.

However, I am continually amazed at the vociferous opposition to actually
controlling our borders. For some reason the ACLU and a host of other
do-gooder organizations find it anathema for America to actually restrict
immigration to legal immigrants only -- a fact that baffles me.

We are friends with a family from Columbia. They came to America the
hard way -- legally -- and have struggled over the last decade with
obtaining green cards for their family members, and with becoming
American citizens. It has been a tough row to hoe, and they are
rightfully proud of their efforts and status.

They are also the most vocally anti-Mexican group of people I have EVER
known. Their attitude toward illegal immigrants borders on Fascist --
they simply despise them for cheating and taking the easy way -- at what
they see as their expense -- and I am sure they would advocate following
this poster's (I hope) tongue-in-cheek suggestion to arm the border
patrol helicopters with machine guns.

But what is so wrong with stopping illegal immigration? Why is it okay
to fly helicopters up and down the Rio Grande 24/7 -- at huge expense --
but building a fence is seen as some sort of "Berlin Wall"-type of deal?

The illegals around here don't pay into the Social Security system. They don't
have those types of jobs.

There's also a bunch of people living near the US-Mexico border that collect
SS checks that never paid a dime into the system. They have a PO box in the
town on the US side of the border and check it once a month.

About ten years ago, I worked with a fellow who had immigrated from the old
USSR just a few months earlier. After a couple months he brought his mother
over and within a month she was drawing SS benefits since she was over 63 or
whatever. Yup...just weeks after hitting the US for the first time.

There's a neat trick practiced about coming to the US when 8 1/2 months
pregnant, then having your delivery here. Kid automatically becomes a US
citizen and Mom is entitled to all sorts of goodies.

And there are people who are working to allow them to collect that money.

The ones that use real SS# also claim dependents of up to fourteen so
they get less deducted at each payday. After a year, they come back
with different SS# and these slimey employers know this and don't care.

Why would they need to come back with a new SS #?

They claim it(multiple dependents) on their W-4, but they don't file
tax return. Their weekly checks don't get taxed as much as if they
claimed 0 dependent. By not using the same SS#, they actually
disappear, (on paper). They come back as someone else or they piggy
back on some innocent person's SS#. That person will have to pay up in
the form of being evaluate as a person earning more than they really
earned.

Don't the extra "earnings" flag the IRS as under reported income when
the "owner" of the SSN files their 1040?

Yes, that's why they use each ss# for one year only, and it will
probably take the IRS years to find each fraudulent filing. Plus, the
IRS does not audit every single filing/claim.
