| This would be considered an act of war
This would be considered an act of war by American leaders unless they were cowards and traitors who had sold out to Mexican drug cartels and La Raza. Mexican pot smugglers fire on helicopter near border <http://www.azstarnet.com/sn/border/209344> Tucson, Arizona | Published: 11.01.2007 YUMA - Smugglers who abandoned two truckloads of marijuana along the Colorado River after crossing into the United States fired shots at a helicopter carrying federal agents but missed, authorities said. Authorities monitoring remote surveillance video cameras along the river spotted six vehicles crossing the river from Mexico into Arizona late Monday night. The smugglers drove back toward Mexico when Border Patrol agents approached. But two of the smugglers' vehicles bogged down in the sand, and those who were in the disabled trucks escaped on foot. As a U.S. Customs and Border Protection helicopter carrying Border Patrol and CBP agents flew nearby to help agents on the ground, a number of shots were fired at the aircraft, apparently from across the river, agents said. The Border Patrol said neither agents nor the chopper were hit and that the pilot moved the aircraft to safety. Agents seized 175 bundles of marijuana that weighed almost 2,300 pounds from the two vehicles that were left behind. The pot has an estimated street value of more than $1.8 million, the Border Patrol said. Both vehicles had been reported stolen.

Well Catfish. I finally agree with you on one. It is an act of war ... but by whom? Should we follow the example of G.W.? Bomb Peru? Should we apply "shock and awe" and bomb all of Mexico? (Could bomb most of the country for days and only displace a farmer or two). Or, should we finally legalize the long-time widespread use of marijuana and foil the smugglers' market? Should we abandon our separatism and become Canadian? (True, would raise our nat'l IQ a bit). While I understand that you have taken it upon yourself as a "mission" to alert and educate those you can on a consistent basis, is it time to entertain notions of "Real" solutions or should we merely continue to bark and whine? p.s.(You got a Thomas Jefferson "thing" going on?)

Naw we plant some nukes under the ground like if were testing them all along our border with Mexico.. we blow them so we have a great canyon dug all the way from the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of California, it will fill with water and we make a new great lake. This will also take care of any flooding done by global warming.. by giving the extra water a place to go. I would love to see the RIO GRANDE LAKE!

Pan, what would happen to El Paso should we create such a lake? Fishman, thanks for your candor. This might be a good time to mention that I have blown up more square feet than most people alive - have a real, personal "Yee-Haw" thing going on (have done it all legally)(maybe) ... and would consider doing the same for my country. Got a problem with taking lives though. However, Pan, your fantasy brings up a serious thought - that, while we're building a fence ... we should build two - creating a no-man's land or, DMZ ... in which case, the explosives idea could be seriously considered. I would rather overcome borders of all sorts ... but I do realize that it is too idealistic a thought.

Well Part of it would be lost.. for the greater good of course. But the part that survives would become an Oasis in the desert bigger and better over a 10 year time period. I too would love it if we could overcome all borders and just buy Mexico and have it part of the United States.. that would solve all the problems right there. But your right to idealistic. There has been talk of a DMZ in America, along the Mexico, America border.. but I think things will have to get a bit more nasty between us and Mexico before that will ever take place. In Other News Oklahoma passed its 1808 bill..

| Re: This would be considered an act of war
It's funny how the majority of this website has views against illegal immigration supported with many documented facts, yet we are all "narrow minded". I believe you are trying to simplify a complicated issue, or make it a race issue, and you ignore the facts presented to you. The motto of "They're good people who work hard and just want to better their lives" doesn't cut it with me. Whether some of them are good people and hard workers is irrelevant, perhaps they should have worked harder to earn their citizenship instead of taking it upon themselves to take it. Here is a list of problems that might help explain why the anti-illegal position is the majority on this board and in the country, and why so many Americans are angry. 1. They skip the immigration process in which all other LEGAL immigrants must go through before moving to this country, and that is an insult to those obeying our laws. 2. They cost the taxpayers BILLIONS of dollars per year in social services (i.e. medical care, food stamps, etc.) 3. Without being screened any dangerous criminal can enter our country and commit these crimes onto American citizens, with no means to track such criminals with a lack of tracable information such as fingerprints, DNA, photos or even their NAME. 4. Without being screened those with infectous disease, some of which like certain strands of TB are deadly, are allowed in to infect our citizens. 5. The takeover of many middle class American jobs. The argument that all jobs they take are ones Americans don't want is obsurd. 6. The increased population has driven up home prices. While not all from illegals, supply and demand dictates they are partly responsible. 7. Billions of US dollars are taken out of the US economy and put into the Mexican economy from wages sent home to Mexico. 8. The increase of unlicensed and uninsured drivers. 9. The close of several hospitals due to having to care for uninsured illegals. 10. Uncontrolled growth will have disasterous effects on our economy. These are just some, not all, of the FACTS of what illegal immigration is doing to our country. The suggestion that all problems listed above should be tolerated so that illegals may harvest fruits and vegetables, or because "They are nice people" holds no water to me. And because of the above listed FACTS, that is where the EMOTION comes into play. "We the People" are angry. Angry that the government has allowed this to go on for so long. We are letting our voices be heard at all levels. The line is being drawn. We have had enough. |

I think we should blow up Colorado. It's filled with nothing but yuppies and we wouldn't miss them. hahaha Wyody, what did you use? I've only played with C4 in a roll. Also played with some sticks. The C4 I could roll up like a the size of a pencil and it would take off a table leg. Never did have enough to make a really big dent in earth.

| Re: This would be considered an act of war
I've used many agents, Fi'ty. Wouldn't believe how many civilians have C4 in their garage!! I've done a lot of contract-testing for manufacturers as well - like Atlas Powder and Hercules. I personally like the stuff you can carry around legally and mix at the site - but it's not so "directional" as is sometimes necessary. Not a chemist, Cowboy. I'm a man who likes to sit 12ft away from 165lbs!! Freaking BOOM!! I love staring back at people who are staring at me while I'm pushing the button - they were usually absolutely freaked-out. Heck, it was the safest place to be - any debris went straight thru me and my heart only stopped for a few seconds at a time ... no biggie ... no biggie ... no biggie ... no b..........................

*ALERT* This might seem silly - but I'm wondering if we shouldn't move this thread elsewhere so it can only be viewed by members?

The Government said I'm not allowed to play with things that go bang. Something about that Hummer I flipped over. All I wanted to do was blow the tire off. Used too much. But it was funny. My Commander didn't think so. He made me go back to being a ping jockey. Wyody, you ain't got to believe this trip. Sheridan to Denver (only place planes fly to from here) Then to LA. Then to New York and to London and then to Alexadria. What a trip.
