: Greg Siskind's BlogBORDER PATROL TO TARGET HURRICANE EVACUATIONS
By Greg Siskind
Not too much surprises me when it comes to immigration enforcement these days, but this story made me do a double take. Apparently, Border Patrol agents will be questioning people boarding evacuation buses when a hurricane approaches the Rio Grande region in Texas. The Border Patrol claims illegally present immigrants will be "looked after" and taken to a safe detention facility and presumably deported when the storm is over. Of course, a large percentage of people will not take the chance of being deported and will risk being killed. And when we have another Katrina with a massive death toll, we'll at least know who to blame.
