Have to hand it to the great bow-tie wearing newsman: The Chinese would eventually come after the U.S. in some form. As always, another excellent job by U.S. Law Enforcement at the Mexican/U.S. border. And, along those lines, an even better job by the Mexicans keeping Chinese terrorists out of Mexico. Of course, the Honorable Mayor of Boston believes there is no threat, however, since it is snowing, Boston police will probably be removing items left by people who shovel themselves out in order to preserve a parking spot rather than attempting to stop terrorists. Perhaps these possible Chinese Terrorists just thought Menino's "Much Like a Cookie" speech was about Chinese Fortune Cookies and an invitation to come visit.

If that's a crack about individuals getting into the US via the Canadian border...please keep in mind that it's *US* Immigration people that are letting them in, not Canadian (or Mexican, for that matter.) | AWArulz

We know that. Our immigration policies and border security ploicies are just stupid. We can shut down a majority of the leakage in Canada with just some checks at major entries. But today, you can just waltz in, as long as you have some decent papers, which any fool can get. I'm fairly sure that you can cross freely, much like Mexico, in between, if desired.
