ON THE SOUTHWEST BORDER Public Corruption: A Few Bad Apples
ON THE SOUTHWEST BORDER
Public Corruption: A Few Bad Apples
08/09/10
In the surveillance footage taken hours before his arrest, U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officer Michael Gilliland can be seen nonchalantly waving a car through his lane at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry in San Diego. He was knowingly allowing illegal aliens across the border, and he would do this several more times throughout the evening. His actions that night would earn him nearly the equivalent of his annual salary—and eventually a five-year prison term.

Gilliland, a former U.S. Marine and veteran Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer with 16 years of experience, has been in jail since 2007. But his case continues to illustrate the pervasive problem of corruption along the Southwest border and the damage that can occur when officials betray the public's trust.
Although the vast majority of U.S. government employees working on the border are not corrupt, as one senior agent who investigates such crimes noted, “Even one bad apple is too many.â€NO AMNESTY
Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

Better policing of the border, and of those who are charged with securing the border is needed. We can not allow car 98, 99, 100 to come unchecked, carrying those who could do us grave harm.
Psalm 23, it is written, "The Lord is my Shepherd"Matthew 19:26
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
