New training center

Tonight I attended and advance baton class with the State. After the class I was having a conversation with the instructor and he mentioned that Blackwater is planning to open a training center in San Diego Ca. He mentioned they would be contracted to do work on the border. Anyone know anything about this?

Certainly, can't say I know anything, but I've heard other "rumors" concerning the border area, especially in CA. Now, the illegal immigration issue is only being given any serious consideration by a couple of canditates who can't even make any guarantees if they did get into office, and the majority of the media will certainly be of no help. I don't know if it's smoke in mirrors, or some ansulary issue such as the drug trade/terrorist activity. We'll have to hope some of you down by the borders can keep an ear open for us.

I do alot of training because I have to have my skill up to speed for employment in the higher end protection jobs. Another consideration of my increase training is the foreseeable increase in crime in the U.S. With Mexico exporting their poor and uneducated masses here we are becoming a third world country with all the problems of a third world country. Spanish is spoken more often than English and it's shocking to see schools with Spanish signs replacing those that use to be english. Wake up America Your next!
