Life on the border – America’s Twilight Zone

This excerpt from today’s Tucson Weekly Magazine, by Leo Banks.

Sometimes burreros–drug mules–show up at Sonny’s place after dropping their loads. They’ve walked 5, sometimes 10 miles, carrying 50- or 60-pound bales of marijuana on their backs, and they’re dog tired. It’s rough work, wrecking a nation.

In the old days, they’d walk back to Mexico. Now they call the Border Patrol for a ride. The agents drive them to Nogales for mug shots and a fingerprint check, and if all looks rosy–only border-busting arrests–they’re turned loose back across the line.

“The Border Patrol sees some of these guys 15 times.” Sonny shrugs. “Why would you walk back when you can get a ride?”

Twilight zone.
