But 'Brinco' in the search field...

"Brinco [Sneakers]
[size 11]
Judi Werthein
CA: Judi Werthein; Insite-05. 2005

This pair of sneakers was custom designed by artist-activist Judi Werthein especially for migrant workers crossing the border between Mexico and the U.S. The symbol of the Mexican eagle is sewn onto the side of each shoe and the American eagle engraved on the quarter dollar is sewn onto the toe. The shoe's insole is printed with a map of the border region and a compass and mini-flashlight allow the wearer to navigate the terrain night and day. A small pocket in the front of the shoe contains a phone number for the migrant to call upon arrival in the US. Every pair of these useful multiples is embroidered with a full disclosure of their manufacturing conditions: "this product was manufactured in China under a minimum wage of $42 US a month working 12 hour days.""

I just ordered a pair of 11's! LOL

That is such BS and so blatant...it needs to stop...I have zero problems with immigrants but there are ways to do it legally. IMHO all Immigrants in this country who have come here legally should be offended and outraged. All taxpayers should be outraged. It's so funny how the rest of the world seems to hate us at times yet there are people willing to do anything to get here. I guess it's all of the entitlements the left seems to offer at the expense of the evil individuals whom have strived to better themselves in a completely legal and responsible fashion. Now before I get blasted let me say I don't disagree that we need programs in place to help folks that truly need a hand however the complete disregard for true oversight has run rampet (sp?) and has turned these assistance programs into a sustaining way of life.

She needs to be arrested and deported! She is blatantly breaking the law! Send her ass back to her own country and she can try to get back in using her own shoes!!! [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Start shootin them as they cross the border, like the russians used to do in germany.Word would get out eventually .YOu dont have to kill them, just take out the knees.After awhile, shit would calm down and they would start standing in line to sign the guest book on the way in, that i promise you.

As for this traitor, i agree, send her home or let her stay in mexico.She could get them to make her shoes for her there for cheap.Put tracking chips in the souls of the shoes without telling anyone.Could be a fun new game
