Six illegal immigrants arrested at Qualcomm
San Diego:
Six undocumented Mexican immigrants were arrested today by U.S. Border Patrol agents at Qualcomm Stadium, after a report that they were stealing food and water meant for evacuees, according to spokesman Damon Foreman.
San Diego police responded to a call about alleged theft from the evacuation center and encountered six people in a van who didn't speak English and didn't have California driver's licenses, Foreman said. The police officers called the Border Patrol, who arrived at the stadium and made the arrests, he said. Foreman said the immigrants admitted they were Mexican citizens and that they were stealing.
Border Patrol agents are not looking for illegal immigrants at the center but will continue responding to police calls for assistance.
"We are not in any means at Qualcomm for enforcement capacity," he said. "We are not there to take advantage of a situation."
Foreman said the agents have been helping in the evacuation and rescue effort in addition to carrying out their main duties.
"We are dedicated to our primary mission to securing our borders," he said.

Here's an idea...offer them Citizenship by dropping them in the middle of the fire with some shovels to help fight the fire and tell them if they make it out alive they'll be U.S Citizens.

Right, because a citizen would never do something like this... :roll:

Oh I make no exclusions for citizen's either Moose. If it was a citizen we should do the same...they make it out, no jail time. It's called creative sentencing. No need to clog up the courts anymore then they already are.

On occasion Tommy makes himself sound intelligent! :twisted: Just kidding man. I like the idea though. It sounds like a good plan to me. Put a tracking device on their ankles so tha t they don't try to slip out.
