Home Land Security Checkpoint Protest in Port Angeles, WA Sept 20th, 2008 - Q13 Coverage

Homeland Security Sets up Suspicionless Checkpoints Along Roads in Washington State

Homeland security has setup up 3 internal checkpoints on the Olympic Peninsula. These checkpoints are in addition to checkpoints at Washington Ferry docks and highway border crossings. According to the U.S. Border Patrol, it has a jurisdiction of about 100 miles from the border. This puts most of Washington state in an area where border checkpoints are authorized, including Seattle.

In August and again in the beginning of September, the Department of Homeland Security has set up suspicion-less checkpoints on the Washington peninsula. The checkpoints are in the town of Forks, at the west side of the Hood Canal bridge going east bound, and at the third near Discovery Bay on US 101. Forks is a timber town of 3,200 people that is 56 miles from the nearest ferry terminal connecting Washington to Canada. At the road checkpoints there and elsewhere, the border patrol ask drivers different types of questions to gauge their status in the U.S., including questions about citizenship.

Hey Lady, just so you know, it's the Boarder Patrols job to look for "UNDOCUMENTED" immigrants you ass.

And to the other woman, it's NOT UNFAIR to not let UNDOCUMENTED workers be a part of the community. They're here ILLEGALLY! What is it about ILLEGAL you all don't get?

[ceakins1]

OH shut the fuck up you piece of shit.  I sick of traitors like you.

[elpasotexastejano]

What would stop illegal immigration is stop all Welfare in America so that the laziest can got to work in the field. Also start arresting and giving long sentences to white American farmers who hire illegals. What would stop illegal drugs in America is start arresting and sentencing to life any American caught using and buying drugs. We have no one to blame but ourselves. Clean up the kitchen and the roaches and rats will go elsewhere.

[ceakins1]

Ya because the war on drugs has worked so well. Are you a complete moron?

[elpasotexastejano]

You know its people who actually do not like the idea of anyone being put in jail for drugs, or might I say put in jail for a long period for drugs, that might actually have some benefit from the availability of drugs in our country. I just suggested that people who are responsible for our drug problem be put in jail and you call me a moron? Yea right, you are a real pillar of the community.

[ceakins1]

As a matter of fact, I don't do drugs. I'm sorry your pee brain has a problem with the facts. Fact, the war on drugs isn't working, Fact the war on drugs tears families apart, Fact the war on drugs has cost over a trillion dollars. So unless you are some liberal pinko commie fascist, you would be against the war on drugs. And to clarify, I'm talking about users, not dealers.

[NorthSideCartel]

If those border patrols think their doing a great job. Im sure those border patrols could do a much greater better job at the border where they belong.

1945 president Truman signed the war powers act that allowed 2 important things

1. the president can fight a war without congressional or the peoples approval

2. once a president is at war US citizens are declared as "prisoners or war" subject to internment in concentration camps such as the 3,700 fema camps in current operation in the US today

every president has declared a war to downgrade Americans citizenship and rights

of course someone as smart as you would already know this

[shiimshiim]

"there not looking for terrorists" lol americans are fucking idiots

a $2 wage is not gonna feed a family let alone a single person, especially when obamas taxes come through. in the hospital where my friend works they only hire ER and trauma nurses who speak spanish fluently. He was going to be laid off for that very reason as well. The war on drugs is stepping down hard on drug lords and dealers but we must have a secure border to keep the drugs and people from flowing in. oh and about 1500 californians have been killed by MS-13 and illegal aliens.
