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.

While most states tightened requirements for obtaining driver's licenses after 9/11, illegal Ghanaian immigrant Sam P. Thompson was able to obtain commercial driver's licenses to operate trucks in at least two states -- Maryland and Kentucky, records disclose.

Today, Thompson, 32, of Gaithersburg, Md., sits in the Westmoreland County Prison in lieu of $100,000 bond awaiting a preliminary hearing on vehicular homicide and other charges after driving a tractor-trailer that rear-ended a car along the Pennsylvania Turnpike last week, killing a Honduran diplomat.
