Border Patrol
In my extensive travels in Mexico,have spoken with many folks who crossed over to work.A sad commentary on US culture they all say,do not get caught
by a Chicano,or Mexican-American border patrol,a white person is more likely to treat you humanely and fairly.I am sure there are chicanos in the
patrol that are fair,also,but this is the general consenses of Mexican crossers.

Ok, I guess a better answer by illegal immigrants is just "Do not get caught" and avoid any feelings of not being treated fairly!! If you do not like
being handcuffed, booked, jailed, deported do not do illegal acts in any country. Later========bajafun777

Maybe
Maybe it's because the "chicano" Border Patrolmen/women came into this country legally, or were born here as US citizens.
The most vocal groups against ILLEGAL immigration are those immigrants who came to this country legally and obtained their citizenship by following
the rules and the law.

No way. I was born there and nobody is as adament as I. This has to stop. I speak for a silent America that will soon have had enough. That will be
a sad day.

We need immigrants,it is sad that presently many of them need to be illegal.Without illegal immigrants,much of the economy of in particular the state
of California would collapse.And yes,we badly need another Bracero program but God forbid,then employers would have to pay L and
I,unemployment,perhaps,medical,the could not hire and fire on a whim,many employers want the folks to be illegal,Plus a large percentage of legals
would hurt job security for the migra.

Tough Guys on the Border
Actually, there is probably validity in the premise that Latino Border agents may be harder to deal with.
It has been shown again and again that Minority and Female personnel in many law-enforcement positions tend to act that way because they feel
vulnerable to criticism.
From long experience, I ALWAYS avoid the Female agents IF I have the opportunity.
Having said that, my worst experience crossing the border was courtesy of a "White Male" agent. Of course, that may have been because I responded to
his rude questioning with a comment regarding the lack of physical fitness requirements resulting in obese agents. Some people have no sense of
humor.

"We need" more space in our jails, too----------so, does it make sense to stop enforcing laws, thus sending nobody to jail, and thus reducing the
pressure on the Nations jails?
Your logic escapes me.
