You! Out! Now!

Hey All,

This is a NY Times article printed the February 20, 2006, about the difficulties in making sure that those seeking asylum in the U.S. are given an opportunity to go before an immigration official. The conflict comes at a time when the U.S. government is seeking to curb illegal immigrants from coming into the U.S. This, however, puts a strain on border patrol individuals who at time feel compelled to "look the other way" by not allowing illegal immigrants a chance to seek asylum and are instead immediately "expedited" deportation.

Hey All,

I didn't know the blog worked like this but to access the article, you have to click the "links to this post" on the HR/HW home page. In case you have trouble, the site is pasted below.

Argh!!! I just figured it out...again. You have to click on the name of the posting. In this case, "You! Out! Now!" in order to access the online article. What an annoying way of doing, especially when it states "Links to this post." What a crumby and dumb idea. So, fair warning...when you create a post and that section that says, "Add links" or something to that effect, the TITLE of the post actually becomes the link itself. Somebody was probably high or something when they created that. Either that or they really really hate me and have a sick vendetta against me. Argh!

Hahaha
