Border security...
02/05/15 at 14:48:45

Nearly 80f today... so we took a little ride...
If you ride anywhere around S. Az,... you're going hit a border checkpoint...

These consist of about 6 guys, guns, a dog, 4 or 5 vehicles, a couple of trailers,.. speed signs, cones, bump strips...
... and as you approach, you flip up your faceshield, and the guard asks,...
"US citizen?"...
"Yup"...
... and he's waves you on by...

That's it... Grin

... "Yup"... Roll Eyes

I dunno,man, somehow I just don't see me getting the right answer out first.
Are you?
Comes to mind..
Long as they don't start asking for license,registration,insurance and all that, even could most likely be cool. I could probably manage a plain
Yep..

But, believing as I do, I don't have any respect for the charade, the pretense that those checkpoints have any impact on number of illegal immigrants.

Reply #6 - 02/05/15 at 18:40:01 i feel so much safer knowing they are hassling citizens 40 or 50 miles from the border instead of actually patrolling the border and catching the border crossers. Say nyet comrade when they ask you.

When I drive my car, with a Minn Lic Plate,
and go through the checks.
It has always a, 'young person' checking.

And when I Say:
"A-yep, Ya Betch ya, I is a Citizon form MeNeSota"
The, 'older' person, waves me through, and is LHAO !
And the younger person has the:
"Doe in the headlight', look.
