#2  I find it peculiar too, Skid. Don't know why NY'ers, except that maybe CBP asked for support from a reliable blue area.
I mean, did they really drive that JetRanger Kiowa all the way from NY, or did they just "borrow" it from Cavasos Hood.

#1  Apparently the New York tie-in is important.
I just don't know why.

Maybe they'll 'border fence' the bus stations and demographic clusters.
