Spend the money and save jobs. The USA isn't Yemen.


KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- Congressman Fred Upton (click here) told the Trifecta that he doesn’t see the need for Drones in the U.S.
The issue is heating up because of a presidential memo that spells out when drones can be used to take out U.S. Citizens working for al-Qaida.
Over 80 police agencies, university researchers and other organizations have filed for permits to use drones in the U.S.
Apparently the U.S. Customs Service has been using drones to gaurd the southern border with Mexico for the last 7 years. 
Police agencies say they can be used to trail escaping criminals or equipped with infra-red to find lost children or Alzheimer’s patients, and do it a lot less expensively than a manned aircraft....

People always find a way. Barriers never stop people. People are living, thinking entities on this Earth and just because these people are from Mexican origins doesn't make them less human, less thinkers or less a person with an idea to achieve their goal of being with family.


This "border friendship park" (click here) is a place where families from both sides of the border meet their relatives to talk and hold hands in between the steel columns that separate Mexico and the United States.
