Speech #990275244

How often have we heard or read about literally tons of illegal drugs smuggled across our borders in planes? Quite frankly. I dont know of a single instance where the pilot has radioed ahead to notify the Border Patrol which small air strip or pasture they would be landing in and how long they will be there so the Border Patrol could obtain a warrant. And perish the thought if this happens outside of "normal" business hours. Because. in certain areas. the magistrates arent available after hours or on weekends. others will not issue warrants by phone. while some magistrates are up to 200 miles apart.
