Amnesty Sides With Mohawks in Border Dispute

Amnesty International has waded into the stand-off between Akwesasne Mohawks and the Canadian customs agency over the arming of customs officers at the border post on Cornwall Island. The crossing's been closed for three weeks now. Here's Amnesty's letter supporting the Mohawks:

Leave the crossing closed or turn it over completely to the Mohawks.

I would seriously doubt that there is any history of problems or smuggling that would lead you to believe it wouldn't be maintained properly.
