Comment Stupid, one-sided article (Score 1) 280

What an incredibly one-sided story. First of all, the border patrol does not arrest and adjudicate the vast majority of border-crossers. After a simple computer look-up to see if they are criminals, they load them up on a bus and drop them off on the other side of the border. They only care about "arresting" law breakers, i.e., drug dealers. The CNN article did not report what some other new feeds did: "In 2013, the arrests by drone brought in $66,000 per hour of contraband seizures." They are concerned about and going after real threats to our country.

Comment Its no wonder... (Score 1) 305

Its no wonder that conservatives don't trust the research coming out of academia on many other issues, such as global warming, psychology/psychiatry, etc. They have come to expect this kind of behavior from a system that "peer reviews" itself when its members are not representative of the general public's viewpoint. Over 75% of academia self-identifies as liberal.

Comment How quickly we forget (Score 1) 555

How quickly we forget 9/11. If our government had been more vigilant in who crosses our border, it would have never happened. Border searches are one of the few powers I am happy to grant my overgrown, bloated, ineffective federal government. If you come to the U.S. with bad intentions, I hope they catch you.
