This weekend, some 400 undocumented immigrants from Central America arrived at Greyhound Lines bus terminals in Tucson and Phoenix.
It was a staggering occurrence, but not nearly as remarkable as how they got there – courtesy of federal immigration officials.
The immigrants arrived at the bus stations after having been arrested and processed by federal authorities in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas, and flown to Arizona from there because the Border Patrol lacked the resources to deal with the growing flow of people crossing illegally into the Lone Star State, according to USA Today.
The practice, the newspaper reported, apparently has been underway for several months.
Groups of immigrants left in Arizona have included infants. Organizations that serve immigrants complain that federal authorities essentially are dumping people without food, water, or other necessities.
"It's not safe healthwise and we are concerned for their physical safety," said Cyndi Whitmore, a volunteer with an advocacy group that has been going to the bus terminal in Phoenix to help, USA Today reported.

Old Pudfark sez: " Seems like a little retaliation from the Obama administration..which will result in another investigation...and "end up" in some more political constipation...and all to the public's consternation..just wait...fer the Obama ovation...from the Meskin nation. "
