Heh, heh. Yes, I am among those who would like our border protectors to do more towards protecting our borders. The checkpoint I went through was very non-intrusive, but traffic was backed up for a considerable distance by the time I got to it, and it was getting worse.
Sort of makes you think they should perhaps be doing that border protecting stuff somewhere near the border, ya know? The checkpoint I hit was easily 100 miles away from the border. IMHO there's no excuse for that. If they're running checkpoints 100 miles inside the U.S. to look for illegals, to me that's a blatant admission that the Border Patrol and Immigration people aren't doing their job.
