It's not just Mexican laborers, anymore, porous border attracts drug runners and terrorists

WorldNetDaily: Lawmaker: Terror war spilling across border:

"Sigifredo Gonzalez Jr., sheriff of Zapata County, which is east of Laredo, ... [told] to attendees of a San Antonio conference last week, ... the 'federal government has failed its citizens' by failing to protect its borders.'

"'Illegal immigration is the least of our concerns. We'll deal with illegal immigration,' he said. 'What I worry about is the dangerously violent narcotics gangs and especially the terrorists. There are people from countries of interest to the United States which could easily come over this border. They may already be in the country. We don't know.'"
