<Does that make me really coldhearted? > I tend not to have too much sympathy for those who suffer misadventures while doing things they shouldn't have been doing. On the other hand, the penalty is supposed to fit the crime, and death seems a bit stiff a penalty for illegal border crossing. Of course, targeting border patrol officers indiscriminately is far worse. Karen

"They COULD stay in Mexico and obey the laws." Rambi, that 'border' is a recent, artificial, and arbitrary imposition by the anglo group currently occupying the territory to the north. It can in no way remove from a member of La Raza his unalienable moral right to go on this continent where it please him. Which is not to say that i support the offering of a reward for the killing of one of the brutalisors paid to deny him that right - such an action is counterproductive, it will only serve as fuel to justify their actions against the brown and the native.
