Nate, did they take any good pics from the chopper?

Picking up the new 46 next week in Pompano. It is heading for Ohio. We will make sure we take 95 north and do not cross the alley.

Default Been Stopped

Not this winter but the winter before we were cruising about 65 coming home from Key West to Goodland in our 31 Sonic SS and we had a helicopter flying next to us sideways checking us out. We stopped and spoke to them on the VHF they asked where we were coming from, where we were going and how many people on board. I don't know where they came from we never saw them until they were right over us..you could see the whites of their eyes. I was pretty impressed and made me feel save that we could be seen and found with nothing around but water. In the paper later that week I saw where they tried to smuggle people onto Marco with a go fast and got caught.

I called the goverment dept. Called I.C.S. to report illegals that swam out of a local restaurant late at night, They have no drivers lics. and etc. and make the neighborhood look like little Mexico. The owner flaunts his "cheap Labor" and they hassle people. I.C.S told me"Awe that's too bad." I guess they don't have the time to enforce the law about this down here, but if you read the paper most of the violent crimes are from illegals. I hope someone powerful enough can make a stand, because this is ruining our country. If you don't desire to speak english why are you here?
