Talk about Americans shooting themselves in the foot...

Mind you, with Australia's immigration laws, I'm glad our land doesn't border any other countries...

I have seen a MFS unit go with lights and siren to a RCR over the Boarder they get to the Boarder and get stopped by Adelaide Fire, They then got on a CFS unit traveled 5km over the Boarder then get told by Adelaide Fire to walk back to there unit and go back to there station.

Well considering Victoria is still in Australia, (Some might not like this, but its true), even if there were guards, they wouldn't be stopping anyone...  Except to confiscate fruit of course..

And at the moment they are stopping horses and horse floats from coming over unless you have the correct paperwork....
