Until Congress enacts meaningful immigration reform that allows would-be workers to cross legally, Hoover said, "we’re going to see more deaths. Period."
Nationwide, at least 291 illegal immigrants have died during border crossing attempts from Oct. 1 through Sunday, Border Patrol spokesman Gustavo Soto said. That includes 75 deaths due to heat exposure, 45 drownings, and 42 motor vehicle incidents.
Additionally, the skeletal remans of another 63 people have been found along the nation’s borders, Soto said.
In the Yuma sector, which spans 118 miles of land in Arizona and California, 20 illegal immigrants had died through Sunday and another six skeletal remains had been found, Soto said.
i guess that’s their fault! if only they would come legally…… or not at all……. the world would be a happier place
COOL!
who needs the minutemen when you have a heat wave
Mexico must be scum to allow that to happen.

Any government that allows its own ppl to suffer should not get the benefits of international trade and where in the world is the WTO? Inhumane governments deserve the worst, don’t you agree? No road maps and no more deaths of illegal aliens. I bet they get a cut of that smuggling money too.
That many deaths are never good no matter the circumstances.And for those of you who seemed thrilled by those statistics why not switch it to the number of soldiers who have died in iraq or the number of people who die everyday because of an illness we have no cure for in the world and see if you would be going "good".And to timothy I’m sure that’s the way some of the people in iraq feel like "kill all the soldiers and let Allah sort them out" afterall nobody asked them to be there knowing they aren’t wanted.Don’t let hate cloud your judgement,there is a problem but hate will only prevent us from finding a proper solution to it.
Ok, this is what I don’t understand. Why do they take such risks and then disrespect us and our country and our FLAG when they get over here? They literally die in the sand to get here, to the greatest nation on earth, and then they disrespect us! It’s hard to feel sorry for people like that. After I saw what they did to our flag on May day, that was the final straw.
I have always heard Stupidity pays a high price, I guess this proves the theory. Hard to feel sorry for IDIOTS.
who thinks that I look very similar to Tom Cruise?
