Just another example of what occurs when one country has open borders and no government that will protect its own people from outside invaders.We need an national biometric ID system. I have no problem with having a verifiable name and only those with something to hide would.
What are you talking about? What about all the sob stories I see on tv about how these illegals are only coming into our country for a better life and to work as gardeners and housekeepers?

It was quite a shock to those of us in metro Atlanta.
Lawrenceville--this specific part --is one of our better areas--known for family oriented folks and as a decent place to live.
90 arrested in Dallas drug bust tied to 'La Familia' cartel | News for Dallas, Texas | Dallas Morning News | Latest News (http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/DN-drugbust_22met.ART.Central.Edition1.4bdebf8.html - broken link)
"...La Familia has been linked to hundreds of drug-related killings, including the July 13 kidnapping and torture murders of 12 Mexican federal agents in Michoacán.
According to officials, the bodies were found on the side of a highway and a sign on them read: "Come for another, we're waiting for them."Officials said that the slayings of the 12 agents was in response to the arrest two days earlier of Arnoldo Rueda-Medina, described as being the chief of operations for La Familia.
Through the current investigation, DEA agents learned that several Dallas-area cell leaders oversee independent drug distribution branches supplied by members of La Familia in Mexico"
Lakewooder---
Did this occur in a nice neighborhood in Dallas? Near a major interstate?
That is what happened in Atlanta/Lawrenceville.
And--are you by chance from Atlanta--we have a concert venue name 'Lakewood'. Just Curious.
So now there will be a vacuum of power in the drug business. Keep an eye out for the violence as the up-and-comers jockey for position.
The only real solution is to legalize drugs, educate people about their effects and treat addiction.
Will you be writing a check for treating addiction?
I couldn't help myself--having watched my brother abuse substances/serve prison time and die from this illness.
Not a viable alternative, jmo.
