Researchers are developing cell phone software to help illegal border-crossers find water on long, sometimes deadly treks through the vast deserts. The AP's John Mone reports on how the technology will work. (Dec. 29)

Anyone who says that the people commenting here are pricks or ignorant either have a decent job or don't need one. Over 15million AMERICANS don't have jobs because of outsourcing to other countries or because of these people enabling illegal immigration. These people will never pay taxes and a majority of them contribute nothing to our society. Force American countries to hire American workers and when the US does not have an employment problem then we can go to Home Depot and hire gardeners.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know they did that. I live in Tucson and the illegal problem is major here. You should see what they are doing to the beautiful desert here with the trash they bring and dump at their "pickup" locations. Beyond that they commit most of the murders and rapes in the area. Let them go home to Mexico and do that!

I cant wait till the day all of us Americans are trying to cram into cargo containers and find jobs in india and china. Anyone who is willing to risk their life for a low paying job deserves a chance here. I challenge any blue blooded american here making racist comments to out work any south american they can hire at a home depot. The reason they take all the jobs is they work twice as fast for half the pay. Actually get to know them. We are not that different.

Thank you gentlemen.

Because of your efforts, Immigration authorities will now be able to exercise more cost effective procedures to locate and apprehend Illegal Immigrants, Muslim Jihadists (terrorists) and thirsty drug smugglers.

Well Done!

we need to secretly mine the border heavily on the Mexican side. maybe someone will hack the software and lead the beaners on a wild goose chase in circles...LOL fuck the liberal sympathizers and hang them.

Well it's more of the fact of the criteria you need in order to receive a visa. You will be interviewed by the US Embassy and you have to prove that you can support yourself financially and they ask many personal questions. They are extremely strict on giving visas out. You act as if anyone can recieve one. Search Google for "Immigration Interview Do's and Don'ts" and click the first link.

They should drink out of the Kool-Aid bucket, Let them die.

Why does our society have to be so stupid.

[raygreene]

ITS A SET UP!!!! DON'T FALL FOR IT!! THEY PROBABLY HAVE SOME KIND OF BACTERIA IN THE WATER TO KILL THEM. WHITE CONSERVATIVES HELPING IMMIGRANTS?!??! SERIOUSLY?? IF you see one funnel it with t-shirt destroy the water hole and run as far as possible.

If one were to set up an silent alarm system around the water stations that went to the border patrol, border patrol would have an easier time picking up illegal immigrants. Bet the anti-illegal immigrant groups that complained didn't think of that did they. It's probably also why border patrols been quite about this report.
