What? It's a Federal Misdemeanor. First offense it's a VR to mexico. 2nd offense, technically, its a case, but most dont go.
OT, but related, you woudl be surprised at how many OTM's enter illegally. OTM=other than mexican. To make is clear, these are people from the PRChina, Russians, and a lot of dang Ecuadorans.... The terrorists only need to cross a knee deep river to gain access to our land.
I think what a lot of you fellas might not know is, the BP doesnt go around and handcuffing anybody. The SOP is to load everybody up in the truck, keeping the group present with the common knowledge that if someone runs, there will be hell to pay, if you know what I mean. Very rarely does the BP use handcuffs, when compared to PD's and SO's. They have only recently begun searching the tonk's, due to them finding a large amount of heroin in their holding cell at the station! This might account for Gadsens's opinion.
I have MANY BP Agents as friends and consistently work with them, their job is very different from traditional law enforcement.
