Perhaps we should arm the border patrol with rocks so they can return
"fire". I was a the the Boeing Museum of flight a couple of weeks ago and saw the first air to air weapons. Bricks cut in half. I think we should return to these. True skill is required to hit your opponent. Michelle wrote: Rocks Thrown at Border Patrol Chopper Aug 25 3:31 PM US/Eastern |

Hmmm,
Jose's Aircraft INC,....come on down and let our dopehead mechs rebuild the engine on your Cessna! Take a ride with the drunk CFI for the thrill of your life! Come fly with us as we smuggle terrorists into the country! But wait ...sorry we can't ...we don't have any work rules and no one has shown up Patrick student SPL aircraft structural mech "Jose" wrote in message ... If [the SSN is] not valid, the person at the other end tells us that "This person should contact the Social Security Administration, since there is something wrong with their number." They don't really care if it indicates that the person is an illegal alien. In a perfect world, they would send the gendarmes over to arrest the illegal... You mean, the same way it works in the ADIZ if ATC makes a boo-boo? I'm not in support of illegal aliens, but I disagree that "closing the borders" will solve any of our problems. I also disagree that zero tolerance is a good solution for anything, be it drugs, work rules, terror, or aviation errors.

And maybe there's no universe. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |

They pay in but will never collect. 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. |

"Dave Stadt" wrote in message t... Very simple.....votes. Upset the Latino community and its all over. When Arizona passed it's Prop 200, the highest percentage block voting FOR it (some 75% or so) was the legal/2nd generation Hispanics. |

"Dave Stadt" wrote in message ... "Frankie" wrote in message k.net... Very simple.....votes. Upset the Latino community and its all over. Illegals can't vote. Only US citizens can. If the (legal) Latino community gets upset at the suggestion of tougher border control, they are insulting their own people by implying all, or most, Latinos are criminals. Doh! Frankie Listen to the Latino community leaders. You are dead wrong. Every time talk of closing the border is mentioned they get on the racist band wagon. That's the "leaders"; listen to the average Joe (or should I say "Jose"). See post about AZ's Prop 200. |

"W P Dixon" wrote in message ... Ain't it weird! We all seem to know where they are but our Homeland Security doesn't? Around 11 million they say, and can not find them. Hmmm is it just me or does common sense say if you can't stop illegals at the border or find 11 million already here Osama himself could walk across the border and we would never know it..well until something else blows up! Makes all these subway searches and crap look real stupid in my book. The illegal aliens must be flying GA aircraft into DCA. |

"Aluckyguess" wrote in message ... Farmers were upset in Arizona. They did a crack down and there were not enough laborers to pick the fields. I heard they eased up a bit to help them out. There's plenty of laborers; they get migrant worker (temporary)permits (??) easily. -- Matt --------------------- Matthew W. Barrow Site-Fill Homes, LLC. Montrose, CO |
