Yes.
No.
What?
Gnu....you make it sound as though they were performing a skit. Perhaps they're going into contract negotiations and want more pay for hazardous
duty.

I think that this incident shows that, in spite of the naysayers, the border fence and security is having a big effect on illegal border crossings.
That was an act of desperation, trying to cross at the most heavily watched, guarded and secure part of the border at San Ysidro. What were they
thinking?
As far as gnukids comments, I think the owners of this board should set minimum standards for posters. Like, they should have to be able to
demonstrate they are not legally insane. It is really depressing reading his posts -- staring into the depths of insanity like that.

There's plenty of facts out there now, Paul, if you choose to read them. The incident is reported in all the Mexican papers along the border along
with eyewitness accounts. Try reading Frontera, El Sol de Tijuana, El Mexicano and Agencia Fronteriza de Noticias. You can find them all on Google.
You don't have to make up alternative theories in a vacuum, as you are want to do.

Thanks Terry------ Makes no sense to me what the heck they were trying to do. Did they think that once they made it across they were home free?

Probably figured they could get one or two vans through in the confusion............but maybe it's a government plot. The news article didn't mention
how many black helicopters were involved.

Entered Mexico at Otay this evening, 6:30 pm. Big backup both entering and leaving Mexico. Guess people were trying to avoid San Ysidro.
