Saw a news note this AM that said more or less, "all imcoming travellers to the US will now be checked for radiation" -- I wonder what the thousands of illegal entries from Mexico are going to think about this? I'll bet they file an infringement of privacy suit.
Our southern border security is a joke. Anybody, terrorists included, can walk across that border just about any evening they want and disappear. If the US wants any semblance of real security that Mexican-US border is going to have to be sealed up. I lived in Alpine, CA for several years near the border and the mountains around reminded me a little of Nepal due to the many number of trekkers to be seen everyday -- only difference they were all Mexican illegals and you don't see many of those in Nepal.
I had a pal in CA who employed an illegal Mexican fellow as a farm hand. One afternoon about 3PM the INS showed up, arrested the man, put him on a bus and carted him back to TiJuana. Next day at 7AM he showed up for work as usual. That tells the story about as well as anything.
