News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Increased cooperation among federal, state and local law enforcement agencies is turning up the heat on illegal immigration and drawing sharp reactions.

Ten Immigration and Customs Enforcement detectives are already embedded in the Phoenix Police Department. About 160 Maricopa County sheriff's deputies and detention officers, seven Phoenix police officers and an undetermined number of Department of Public Safety officers will be trained by ICE on immigration law and how to identify undocumented immigrants.

But those agencies differ on how the federal training will be put into use.
