What is the Border Patrol doing on Washington's Olympic Peninsula?
The answer may astound you.
from the website:
IN THE LAST YEAR, under the auspices of Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Border Patrol force has undergone rapid expansion on Washington State's Olympic Peninsula, a quiet and rural area of the U.S. which does not border any foreign country. As the number of Border Patrol agents increased from 1 to 4, then to 25, none of this increased manpower was used to provide full or part-time staff at our small international points of entry that currently lack federal inspection (such as Jefferson County Airport) to check for possible illegal goods being transported or to thwart terrorism. The places where smuggling or terrorism are most likely to surface remain unguarded by the agency which claims that their expanding presence is to prevent these threats and to make us more secure.
The question remains: just how many terrorists have they caught in these sweeps? Well, the BP has stopped 24,000 cars containing 41,000 people. Of those 41,000, 19 were arrested for immigration issues. Another 18 or so were held for other police departments (outstanding warranants and that sort of thing. In total, NO Terrorists were found or captured.
Which surely explains why the BP wants 125 more officers and a ten million dollar "detention facility" in the area.
