The wife and I decided to head out to the auto parts store this afternoon to return a broken part I had bought a couple of days ago. While cruising through the quaint little burg of Huachuca City, I saw 3 groups of illegal aliens, totaling 15 guys walking south(?) on the shoulder of the road. They obviously had missed their ride north and were pretty well pooped out.
Since I was just 1/4 mile or so from the town's cop shop, I pulled in and told the dispatcher at the window that there was a bunch of illegals heading his way. He told me he had already called the Border Patrol, but they were too busy to pick up the ones walking down the road in broad day light. So basically, nothing would be done. It's not the local cops job to pick up illegals, even when they walk right in front of the police station.
Well, that kinda steamed me, so when I pulled out of the parking lot, I decided to just stop and wait for the Mexicans to walk up the road to me.
Now keep in mind, this is right in front of the police station.
When they arrived I just pointed to the police station and shouted across the road to them "Aqui, por favor!" They all looked at me and kind of resigned themselves to the fact that they were out of luck. I walked them over to the Police station and asked the dispatcher where he wanted them. He answered "Just bring them in here", but he sure didn't seem any too happy about the events.
While I was on the side of the road, a guy pulled up behind me and told me he saw a BP truck go right past the guys as they were walking down the road.
I hate it when cops see illegal activity, but don't do anything about it. It's rather hard to ignore illegals when they get brought right in your front door. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
