9 die while fleeing Arizona Border Patrol

[Ghost in the Machine]

YUMA, Ariz. (AP) - A sport utility vehicle crammed with suspected illegal immigrants rolled over Monday in an attempt to outrun Border Patrol agents, killing nine Mexican citizens and injuring 12 others, officials said.

Five of the injured, including a pregnant woman, were in critical condition, most with head trauma, hospital officials said.

The Chevy Suburban was carrying 21 people when the driver had tried to circumvent a checkpoint on the highway, Border Patrol spokesman Lloyd Frers said.

With Border Patrol agents in pursuit, the driver attempted to make a U-turn and rolled over, Frers said. He did not know how fast either vehicle was traveling.

1. Sad for the victims

If the driver is alive he/she should be charged with murder, along with anything else that can be added to the list.

3. I'm about as pro immigration as they come...

but I'm not getting how blood-thirsty repukes are directly to blame for a dude packing his vehicle too full of people and then trying a fast U turn when intentionally avoiding a checkpoint...bloodthirsty coyote getting paid lots of money to endanger human lives is more like it...

5. I'll bet the freepers are happy

and the minutemen are sad that they didn't get to play along.
This is like high speed chases in big cities. Usually they cause more harm than good.
