Border Patrol agents working at the U.S. Highway 70 checkpoint near Alamogordo caught an illegal immigrant Sunday, who was also wanted in Colorado for sexual assault on a child.

According to a Border Patrol news release Monday, agents encountered the man in a Honda Accord with two passengers. He displayed unusual mannerisms and became irritated, and after continued questioning admitted to being in the country illegally.

I'm going to write up an argument for getting these sorts of articles removed. It doesn't really prove anything.

Thanks for the link John1960, it's important to keep these senseless crimes in the media forefront. If we had secure borders this crime wouldn't have occurred. Not only do illegals steal jobs, drive down wages, and commit other nonviolent crimes, they also cause a lot of people a lot of pain and suffering. We're stuck with our own criminals, it certainly makes no sense to import them.

John posts good and bad articles concerning illegals. Last week there was the boy in the desert saved by an illegal. I don't see why we should cover up the bad stories of illegals and only post good ones.

Seems a little one-sided.

As far as the actual article goes, I don't agree with holding him and going through the entire legal system - that's designed for citizens. I think he should get immediately deported into some island in the middle of the Atlantic.

You are so correct. To remove the bad and keep only the good stories about illegals deeds would be like watching the network news. We sure don't need that!

Not so, ProLogic, much is proven by John's posts.

Primarily, they emphasize the need to CLOSE THE BORDER and ELIMINATE ALL INCENTIVES immediately, if not sooner!

There are more bad articles because they commit crimes more than do good deeds....
That is not our fault..... It does make it difficult for the fighters for illegals though ya know the they just want a better life bla bla bla............
The news is already censured enough, which btw is not their job to do... It is their job to report the happenings and let us decide without any slant from the news source but that is becoming non existent these days, like we are little kids that cannot handle the truth or understand so they censure it for our own good and protection....... Please....

In all seriousness, do you really think good deeds are reported on as often as bad deeds?
I would say it is a rare occurrence to hear something good at all.

One positive change is still due, Miborn

Both local and national media reports need to address the illegals as just that, ILLEGALS, not these ridiculous PC terms.
