And if there is no terrorism that is any factor at all, that there
has never been a terrorist attack on the southern border, I would point
the gentleman to the five heads that were lined up on the Mexican side
of the fence across from the people that were driving to church in New
Mexico a few years ago. I think those children that looked out the
windows of their cars as they were getting a ride to church were
victims of the terror that was created by heads stacked along the side
of the highway within feet of our U.S. border. As I spend time with the Border Patrol agents that have made a career
out of protecting our border down there, they tell me that there are
murders on the Mexican side of the border, where they just throw the
body over the fence on to the U.S. side; and other cases where they
identify bodies on the Mexican side of the border, and they will call
the Mexican security people, whom they have good relations with, as a
rule, and they will see the equivalent of an S-10 pickup pull up and
just throw the body in the back of the pickup and drive away, with zero
forensics and very little attempt to identify who the perpetrators
might be that have committed these murders there so close to the
border. I have made surprise visits down to the border on a number of
occasions, and I make it a point to drop in and see what is going on
and talk to the people that are there protecting and guarding our
border. I recall one of those visits down to Sasabe, Arizona, at a relatively
rural crossing there.
