Dead Aliens Still Cost US Taxpayers

ABC News Trip To The Border

Tuesday, Sept. 19th, ABC World News came to Tucson from Washington DC to interview Randy Graf and David Heppler.  I was asked to assist with their transportation needs and found the trip to be interesting.

Randy is the republican candidate for the Arizona district 8 congressional seat.  Because of the stark difference in Randy's strong border security-no amnesty stance as opposed to his democrat opponent's open borders position, the national media has determined that this particular race will serve as the barometer for national public opinion on the illegal immigration issue.  They shot a lot of footage and Randy was very clear on the issues, but they asked a lot of negative questions and it remains to be seen what they present to the public.  The piece is tentatively scheduled to air Thursday, Sept. 21st at 5:30pm.

David is a candidate for Phoenix city council district 3.  His background is in law enforcement and security, and he operates the Arizona Border Watch website.  His views on illegal immigration are consistent with those of Randy.

The ABC crew had two items on their agenda:  The interviews, with the Mexican border at Naco as the backdrop, and pictures of the Pima County morgue.

The chosen interview location was west of Naco, past the tall, solid steel wall, where a barbed wire fence is the only barrier.  A rough dirt road parallels the border fence on both sides and the fence has passable openings in it at varying close intervals.  Overall, however, this section of the border fence would be classified as being in reasonably good condition.

The reporters showed some excitement when a black van coming from Naco on the Mexican side of the border approached our position, with a Border Patrol vehicle traveling abreast of it on the American side of the fence.  The windows in the van were blacked out so we couldn't see inside of it and speculation arose that it was headed out to a remote area to unload a cargo of future "undocumented workers".  My guess is that footage of this event will make the show.

The real reason I am recounting the the trip, however, is the reason we went to the Pima County morgue.  I now know that even dead illegal aliens are costing American taxpayers, and that they will continue to cost us for an undetermined length of time.  The subject of what is done with aliens who have died in their search for a better life in America had never crossed my mind.

The existing morgue building houses 120 corpses.  It is full of dead aliens.  The Department of Homeland Security has purchased a refrigerated semi-trailer which can accomodate an additional 60 -70 corpses.  This trailer is nestled up to the morgue building behind a steel fence.  It is also full of dead aliens.  Now get this:  At a cost of probably millions of dollars to taxpayers, a new building is under construction which will hold an additional 240 dead aliens.

Apparently, if they can't identify a dead alien they store the corpse indefinitely.  Some of the corpses are decomposed to nothing but bones, and unidentifiable under any circumstances anyway.  I don't think this is the practice with unidentifiable American citizen corpses.  My first thought was: Why don't they just store a DNA sample? ..But, no - too simple.  My second thought was: If the border was secured we wouldn't have all the dead bodies. ..But, no - that would slow down globalization.  I better not write down what my next thought was; it certainly wouldn't be politically correct.

I guess I'll just stop here, my brain is about to tilt.
