And how long has BHO's Aunt been here illegally?
Talk about blatant selective enforcement of the Law.




I am not in favor on ANYONE who is in our country illegally. I really don't care who it is or where they are...they need to either get legal or leave, IMO.

However, this entire situation would not have been picked up by the Feds at all. The FAA had approved the flight plan, obviously without regard to checking anything out...

IF it had not been for the civil situation in Texas and the judge there contacting officials here...they would probably not have been noticed. It sounds like they had been sitting in Texas for quite some time...4 months, I think.

Also, if they had been at a much bigger airport, they may have not been detained as the length of time for information to get communicated takes much longer...

The Feds did not detain them until the local Sheriff's office took a look, which was ONLY done due to the civil case in Texas that was on going...

so, really, it was not the intention to find people who were illegal at all, it just kind of happened...

Why they choose the flight plan they did, I cannot understand...except I know that many of the flights that go to Ireland and England from the west fly over the area all the time due to taking the 'short cut' over the curve of the Earth...

I do not think this was "selective" at all...it was really an "accident" so to say...

The thing of it is, the FAA approved the flight plan! The Feds did not even check out to see if the foreign pilot had a visa to be here!!!




Filing a flight plan involves calling it in and getting a clearance.... which anybody can do. The system is there to maintain order in the air, not to check your visa.




ok
