PHOENIX - The U.S. Border Patrol says agents working in southwestern Arizona found 91 suspected illegal immigrants in the desert near Ajo.

The latest group was found Tuesday and consists of 90 men and one woman. The Border Patrol says all are Mexican citizens.

Agents working remote desert areas apprehended the group by using a radar-based surveillance system to watch over wide areas of Arizona desert.

Last Saturday, Border Patrol agents, again using radar, spotted and tracked a large group of suspected illegal immigrants crossing a remote desert area near Ajo.

Agents then detained 71 men and five women.

The Border Patrol says it now has nearly 130 modern detection and surveillance systems of various kinds deployed in Arizona.

Now, I'm beginning to question the word "Detained". I admire the work our Border Agents are doing and I respect the fact they put their lives on the line each day....I only hope they have immediately Deported each and every one of them....

Ajo used to be a nice place to go to.

Truck them right back to the border...no questions...no trial...no documents no entry. And make sure they don't come back. Make the trip to the border a miserable one by transporting them in the most uncomfortable method possable. If you walk them to the border then take their sandles off and make em walk barefoot. They won't be walking back into the USA for a long time after that.

They fingerprint and photo each one to check if they have any wants or warrants anywhere.
If they have none they are deported.
If they are wanted anywhere they are held for pickup.

What Border Patrol the Northern Border is wide open, and there's handful of Agents on the Southern Border with beanbag bullets, we're screwed as long as Obama is in office! They're out manned and out gunned with our guns!
Pray for those guys everyday!

They have to be fingerprinted and photographed to see if they are wanted anywhere before they can be deported.
And so that we know they are repeat offenders if they come back.

Thank you JohnDoe2. Now that is reassuring. I didn't know that.

With the volume of entries every day, 24/7...These guys have to be commended. Fingerprinting, photographing and checking has to take time.

And Steve, you're insight never ceases to amaze me!

Latest count shows 20,000 Border Patrol Agents on the southern border.
Plus 1,200 National Guard Troops
more new Custom Agents and
new unmaned drones.

Quote:

Sept. 18, 2010
"The $600 million bill recently approved by Congress will pay for 1,000 new Border Patrol agents, 250 new Customs and Border Protection officers, and two unmanned aerial drones to provide surveillance on the U.S. side of the border.

Of the 1,200 National Guard Troops, Arizona will get 524, Texas will get 250, California will get 224 and New Mexico will get 72, with the remainder serving in supervisory or support positions.

The Border Patrol is better staffed than at any time in its 85-year history, having doubled the number of agents from approximately 10,000 in 2004 to more than 20,000 today . . .

JohnDoe2: I remember this. But I don't recall it being totally implemented. Seems like some troops were sent here, but not 524. And it seems like it was only for a short period of time......All of them were assigned to the entry ports which still leaves miles and miles of unmanned territory.

However, the AZ Senate passed this one and sent it to the House. http://www.myfoxphoenix.com/dpp/news/wa ... 3-03092011 "A bill approved by the Arizona Senate would broaden the governor's power to form a state military force other than the National Guard."
"The bill approved Tuesday and sent to the House on a 21-9 vote would let the governor establish the new force "for any reason the governor considers to be necessary."

If this flies, we may be able to really beef up our border patrols.

Why is it we keep hearing the border is more secure than it has ever been? The illegal obviously don't think it's very secure, especially if they are coming in such large groups.

The 1,200 were deployed for 1 year. The year isn't up yet.
This is the kind of work they are doing.

(From the article above.)
The National Guard locates them and alerts the Border Patrol to go pick them up.

It shouldn't be very difficult to detect such large groups. However, I suspect the smaller groups are having a lot more success eluding the so-called "modern detection and surveillance systems."

If that were the case...they should be able to detect a rodent crossing the border...So why are they still getting as far as Wikieup?

Let's analyze this a bit. Three 8hr shifts a day so just over 7000 agents. If they only work a 5 day week the number is again reduced. Of course there must be paper pushers among them so reduce the number yet again.

I estimate (generously) only about 5000 agents actually have boots on the ground at any one time.

Just saying. :wink:

The bigger problem is the illegals who are already in the USA. Thousands of babies are born to illegals every day. Our government and crooked anti-American politicians far outnumber those who make efforts to enforce illegal immigration. In my opionion, it has been been "brushed under the rug" for so long, that our government and politicians have obviousely "given in" and "thrown in the towel" by allowing our Country to continue to be conquered by the illegals. As of yet, I haven't heard or read otherwise. As far as our border patrol is concerned, compared to how many illegals make it into the USA, the captures and deportations of them are at a bare minimum!

In all actuallity that is high, divide that number by 3 shifts per day and it is now about 1600 and then say that some 10% of those are on vacation=
1506, then say about 5% of are out sick=Less than 1500! so, we have how many doing inside support services? Maybe 20% min so we are then talking about 1200 or so. Now how many miles of just the southern border do we have? 1954 miles, so 1954/1200 = 1.62 miles PER agent to actually watch! Not all BP agents are stationed along the border also so the actual numbers is probably something like 1 BP agent per every 3 miles of fence!

Try watching 100 yards effectivley!

Oh, that's right, we have all tose sensors and cameras also, somebody needs to watch them! And that leaves the entire Northern border WIDE FRIGGIN OPEN!

Citizens need to help protect our borders, get off your duffs and become active!

Don't forget that the Border Patrol has aerial drones, fixed wing aircraft and helicopters, as well as all terrain vehicles, horses, etc. while most of the people crossing the border are on foot.
