border fences don't work

i saw this video and thought it quite interesting. basically, it shows 2 young ladies climbing the border fence between the u.s. and mexico.



now, assuming that the video is accurate, and these two climbed it on their first try and in under twenty seconds, i have little hope that this fence could actually keep anything out that wanted in. hell, if you can be up and over in under a minute, it's not even like it would be a deterrent.

Immigration drugs deportees

sounds unbelievable, but it may be true. several deportees are suing immigration & customs enforcement (ice), with the accusation that were drugged against their wills while they were in custody.

at least two of them were given haldol, which apparently is some really bad stuff. it's an anti-psychotic.

it's hard to even say that it's just an allegation, because it's in their medical records. i guess that's honorable, we drug you up, but write it down.

"The information the committee has received from ICE regarding the forced drugging of immigration detainees is extremely troubling, particularly since it appears ICE may have violated its own detention standards," Lieberman spokeswoman Leslie Phillips told CNN in an e-mail.

ya think, joe?
