US launches online border patrols

A US state has begun testing a website that aims to police illegal immigration by offering web users surveillance footage from the Mexican border.

The site intends to give web users the chance to virtually patrol the Texas border and contact the authorities if they spot seemingly illegal crossings.

Only eight of more than a dozen cameras installed were initially working.

Texas Governor Rick Perry, who launched the scheme, asked for "forgiveness" for early technical difficulties.

"I'm sure that as you start a big programme like this that you will have some glitches," Mr Perry told the Associated Press news agency.

Mr Perry, a Republican, is running for re-election in mid-term polls next Tuesday.

"I look at this as no different from the neighbourhood watches that we have had for years and years," he said.

Wilcox, one of the founders of the minutemen doesn't want to support Janet Napolitano for Governor in AZ because he wants more troops on the Border.We pointed out she was the first Governor to request them and she took a hit from a lot of communities for it.Bush even admitted that she gave him the idea. And guess what, the Minutemen want the candudate who has done nothing! Bleh! Morons.
