This is great. Now all the border patrol needs to do is watch the gathering point. Should make their job easier.

these towers are in mexico though, so gathering points would still be on that side of the border.
on the surface it looks like they're encouraging the crossing into the states. however, people die crossing the desert to get here. maybe they shouldn't try to cross like that, but at the same time they don't deserve to die just because they're trying to get a better life. just because we live the way we do doesn't mean it's all mai-tais and yahtzee for the whole world. there are people that actually have to *gasp* struggle just to make it by.
we're talking death here, people. it happens to all of us. but maybe it shouldn't be a result of trying to get a job or better living conditions.
say "hi" to lumbergh for me
whats odder is illegals sueing the US for not putting water in the desert so they can hop the border.
what's even more odd is that you refer to them as "illegals" and not people or even immigrants.

they people, but ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
quit trying to make my comments seem racists, though i know thats what you live for.

I won't get too into this because I know there is no convincing some. This is a humanitarian effort, to reduce the amount of lives lost crossing the border. I believe that Illegal immigration is a seperate topic altogether. I don't think these stations are going to make it any easier for people to cross the border; if anything it will make it easier for them to get picked off.

Nobody should die for wanting to be an American. We've got it pretty good here we shouldn't begrudge anyone else who only is seeking what we take for granted.
And I don't think they are encouraging it but rather acknowledging a fact of life. It's like giving out condoms in school, nobody wants to encourage the behavior but if it is going to happen at least be safe.
:monkey:
I don't think this will "encourage" more people to cross the border illegally. However, it will make it safer to do so. Everyone that does cross the border is well aware of the consequences anyway. Besides, its not like they are on every corner, like Starbucks.
Personally, I'm kind of torn about this. But at the same time, I can see why they do it and its pretty risky.
dude if they come here illegally they aren't americans... that's the whole point.. want to live here great, but do it legalyOriginally posted by Merlin

I think that they should have a selection of things to drink. Like maybe we can stock the tower with some of our domestic beers. A lot of Mexicans like Budweiser. That would be kinda cool. And maybe have a place to take an shower and do laundry. Maybe we could give em some money to get started too.
Oh crap...I forgot...we dont want em here...
Humanitarian my ass...if you want to be so damn humanitarian go help them im their country. Go on a mission. Build em a 7-11. Every country would be better off with one of those. A Big Gulp is under a buck....nevemind...thats still like 8,000,000 pesos.
Reread the story, oh mentally challenged one. The towers ARE being built in their country.Originally posted by PsillyPyro

A lot of it has to do with ignorance, lazy or simply wanting to come here illegally (harder for gov't to track them). Take this for example. We are all well aware of the smugglers that bring immigrants across. These folks get payed anywhere from $2k-5k (US, per person) to smuggled folks accross. Now, for a less than half as much amount of money, you can get yourself a passport, get yourself a visa then buy yourself a little plane or bus ticket and cruise on over here legally. I'm not talking about Mexicans cuz they aren't the only ones crossing the border illegally. We're talking Europeans & Asians too.Originally posted by mojo

My biggest complain is that when people start doing stupid $h!t like this, it affects those who do things legally.
yep and wastes our tax dollarsOriginally posted by Jihforce

The thing that I think pisses the most people off is when illegal immigrants come here then begin to feel entitled to privledges and benefits of citizenship. If they wanna cross the border to get a job or grocery shopping or whatever, thats fine. Its when they cross the border, demand welfare then send the money back to their family in mexico is when people start getting angry. Then when they bring 9 children over here to go to school, yet they dont pay taxes to help pay for schools, thats when people get madder.
I'm all for helping people and "doing our part", but I draw the line when someone starts taking advantage of me.

Well in that case we should build some "towers" of our own right across from theirs on our side. And make pepperball cannons.

Illegal aliens should not be encouraged in any way to come here. This country has enough problems of its own to deal with.

Border Patrol agent fired on
"Mexican soldiers entered U.S. territory Friday in the latest in a series of armed incursions and appear to have shot at a Border Patrol agent."
