Cops: Ice Cream Truck Sold 'Pot-Sicles'

The Associated Press

MISSION, Texas - Police say the jingle of this ice cream truck meant
pot-sickles. Police say elementary school students tipped them off to an
ice cream truck driver who was apparently selling $5 and $10 bags of
marijuana from the truck. Most customers were in the third, fourth, and
fifth grades.

"It's a scary thought, but that's the info we received," Mission police
Chief Leo Longoria said.

Raymundo Flores, a 40-year-old illegal immigrant from Mexico, was arrested
Thursday on charges of possession of marijuana. He was transported to
Hidalgo County jail after a judge set bond at $30,000. His case will likely
be turned over to federal immigration officials, Assistant Police Chief
Robert Dominguez said.

While police didn't witness any sales, a drug sniffing dog did help them
find packets of marijuana alongside the more traditional frozen treats.

News video showed the driver may have been doing some subtle advertising.
While the outside of the truck was festooned with pictures of ice cream,
pendants in the shape of marijuana leaves dangled inside the truck.

“How Eisenhower solved illegal border crossings from Mexico”
By John Dillin
http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/0706/p09s01-coop.html

Excerpt:

 “General Eisenhower ... quoted a report in The New York Times,
highlighting one paragraph that said: ‘The rise in illegal border-crossing
by Mexican 'wetbacks' to a current rate of more than
1,000,000 cases a year has been accompanied by a curious relaxation
in ethical standards extending all the way from the farmer-exploiters
of this contraband labor to the highest levels of the Federal
Government ..."

 “Herbert Brownell Jr., Eisenhower's first attorney general, said the
president had a sense of urgency about illegal immigration when he took
office.

 “America ‘was faced with a breakdown in law enforcement on a very large
scale,’ Mr. Brownell said. ‘When I say large scale, I mean hundreds of
thousands were coming in from Mexico [every year] without restraint.’"

"Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here are engaged in
criminal activity. Identity theft, use of fraudulent Social Security
numbers and green cards, tax evasion, driving without licenses represent
some of the crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens on
a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal status. In
addition, violent crime and drug distribution and possession is also
prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25% of today's federal prison
population are illegal aliens. In some areas of the country, 12% of
felonies, 25% of burglaries and 34% of thefts are committed by illegal
aliens."

 -- Testimony of District Attorney John M. Morganelli before the House
Subcommittee on Immigration, Border, Security and Claims [Note: 99% of
warrants for murder in Los Angeles, California -- the USA's 2nd
most-populous city -- are for illegal aliens]

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate,
tireless minority keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of
men."
  -- Samuel Adams

     Defend Colorado Now, a movement opposed to illegal immigration
