Gunmen Attack National Guard Border Patrol Site in Arizona

[Recmar1]

I gotta say that I agree with Dennis and Drty. I live in California where there is obviously many "illegal" aliens. There are two sides to the equation, yes our healh system is being comprimised, yes, our taxes go up to support the influx of non-nationals (not only hispanics), yes, criminal activity in some parts of the country is up. I agree that some stop gaps need to be put in place - but who of us on this forum can say their families arrived on the Mayflower? I happen to be Irish and as a child heard stories from my Grandfather (who arrived from Ireland and whose name is now at the Ellis Island Museum), about the Irish and how "lazy, stupid, dirty, alcoholic" they were. The people that were complaining the most were those without the Irish Nanny, Irish Handyman, Irish roofer, etc.
I absolutely agree that something needs to be done for our border security, for not only Mexico, but also Canada. Stories tend to take on a life of their own, i.e. border guards being assualted. Our government needs to address this, but there is way too much money (since working illegal aliens pay Federal taxes) for them to do anything of significance.
It would be wise for the U.S. to institute what New Zealand has for non-nationals. They are allowed in the Country and if they don't have a job, I believe after three months, they are deported.
I know that the influx in this County is quite different from NZ, but if they can put a man on the moon........
