border patrol?

id like to pose a question, something that i have wondered for a while; maybe someone can shed some light on the topic. in january of 2008 i took a trip to san diego for my 21st birthday to visit a friend. during the trip my friend and i went along with a few of his friends to Tiawana mexico for a night to celebrate. now what confused me, and has become more and more perplexing as time has gone on is that during our excursion i didnt see any thing involving a border control. there was no booth, no toll area and no gates. we drove right into mexico and later that night drove right out on some highway only to see a "welcome to the united states" sign and literally nothing else.

my confusion comes into play everytime i see something on the news about how border patrol is so strict and that they have been ramping up their protection. how can this be possible if not to long ago i was able to enter and exit as easily as i would drive to school and back. i could have brought 20 mexicans and a hundred pounds of cocaine with me if i had desired and so everytime i hear about border patrol i wonder if i just happened to go there just before the border began to close or if tiawana is some type of non sanctioned area or what... if anyone has any ideas id love to hear them
