Not sure if anyone else seen this last night but on CNN they showed the tunnels across the border. They were well done and I am guessing highly used. Damn it

One thing we tend to overlook is its drug users in the US that fuel these problems.

I say dry up the demand for illegal drugs and the problems along the border will lessen up.

Guys, we're talking about weed here, not ecstasy or cocaine or heroin... Ur safer driving with someone who smoked a joint than someone who drank 3 beers....

I agree with that, Dan. It's what else could have passed through those tunnels that is concerning.

The list could be endless what could be coming into USA via the tunnels. Drugs most likely is the least worry some thing coming into USA threw them.

I think a fuse halfway down the tunnel that would trigger a fuel/air mix that rapidly fills the tunnel before igniting. BOOM!
