Either that chopper was way low, or that illegal should look into a career in MLB. Tell them he's Cuban.

Rocks Thrown at Border Patrol Chopper
Aug 25 3:31 PM US/Eastern

YUMA, Ariz.

Illegal immigrants threw rocks at a Border Patrol helicopter, forcing the pilot to make an emergency landing when one of the rocks damaged the rotor, the agency said.

Neither the pilot nor the Border Patrol observer was injured.

The A-Star helicopter was two miles west of the U.S. Port of Entry in Andrade, Calif., on Tuesday when a group of immigrants began throwing rocks at the aircraft.

One baseball-sized rock gashed the rotor, forcing the pilot to land nearby, said Michael Gramley, spokesman for the Border Patrol sector based in Yuma, Ariz.

Gramley said he did not know how high the helicopter was hovering when it was struck, but he said it was being repaired and is expected back in service soon.

After the incident, 17 people were apprehended for illegally crossing the border, and two of them were being investigated for smuggling. Ten immigrants evaded capture.

The investigation into the rock-throwing was continuing.

IF some US citizens had done this they would be in jail right now on charges of attempted murder, destruction of government property, etc. These ILLEGALS will be probably be given drivers licenses, foodstamps and a free college education. Thanks President Bush

As a warning to those who would defy her, Rome disposed of her enemies by crucifying them along the Appian way. It is a practice that may be worthy of consideration today.

bush “They come to do the jobs American’s won’t do, they come for a better life.”

attorney general gonzales "uhhhh...they're unlawful aliens but otherwise lawful citizens."

"The ACLU's position is that illegal aliens have a right to enter
our border and stay in this country as long as they want,"
