Mexico Is Gonna Sue Us.

[fargon]

On Fox News today, I have been hearing about how Mexico is going to sue the United States of America, if we put National Guard troops on the border.
The only thing I can say is what a crock!

Over posse comitatus?

"We want the assurance on the part of the U.S. government that the National Guard will not, in any case, do the work of the Border Patrol," said Interior Secretary Carlos Abascal.

Foreign Secretary Luis Ernesto Derbez told a Mexico City radio station that if the Mexican government detects such activity it will "immediately" file a lawsuit in U.S. courts through local Mexican consulates.

My main TV news down here comes out of Alb., New Mexico. Naturally, NM is one of the states on the front lines of all this. The Alb reporter explained that in order to do a proper job, they would need 6,000 National Guard members to do the task. Currently, New Mexico has 70 guardsmen assigned to do duty with "La Migra." The NM officials expressed the hope that Guard units from "interior states" would be sent down to help out, and the NM officials are complaining that W. has not suggested how his plan can be implemented.

Hmmmm, then we'll just have to start watching Mexico [] for activity indicating the development of WMD. I'm sure we could find some. I expect that the new government we establish for them wouldn't be interested in such lawsuits.

They're getting billions of dollars a year sent to them by the illegals here...you don't expect them to give that up without a fight, do you?

Why? We couldn't find any in Iraq. What makes you think Dubya and his arrogant fucking crowd have learned anything?

For about the 1,000th time, people here in the US (legitimately) need to step back and ask "Quo bono," who benefits?

Try looking through this series of eye opening articles from the Palm Beach Post.

I am not advocating that ANYONE come here illegally, but the people who make the profit off the illegals are the ones who should be stopped. US companies can pay substandard wages, treat illegals as little better than slaves, use children in the fields, provide substandard or even lethal living conditions and no one cares because the people who are treated this way are illegals.

The shame is far more at the doorstep of corporate America and the US Congress than it is at the illegals'. Corporate American benefits from the flood of illegal workers. Corporate America doesn't care that the rest of us have to pick up the tax bill in social services costs or that the illegals themselves are often treated worse than the avergage US born dog.

If Congress were to make an enforce a law that any employer found to be using illegals would be fined $100,000/worker for the first offense and $500,000 per worker for every offense there after, there would be no illegal immigration problem. And you can bet that the people doing the hiring would become very good at recognizing counterfit documents.

The Soviet Union had an excellent method of preventing its people from escaping through its borders. It shot them or sent them to the Gulag. The US could shoot to kill any one crossing the border in New Mexico, Arizona or Cali and ask questions later. Don't tell me that this xenophobic country doesn't have the stomach for that.

A better solution would be to go after the employers as outlined above. Either way, the US does not have an illegal immigrant problem - it has a greed problem and a congress that answers to corporate America, not the people.

Cut them off, completely, not just from cash, from all help, technology, military; all forms of scientific, economic, intellectual, pharmaceutical, agricultural, you name it... no help.
Until they can pay back ALL they owe us and then pay for anything they ask for, after dropping any suit, NOTHING, EVER...no matter what.
Ingrates.
Also, don't just drop people off across the boarder, air-lift their ass all the way down to an island off the coast of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Sure, but make corporate America pay THEM back, first.

I love xenophobic, racist comments such as yours. Did you know that a significant percentage of illegals come from CANADA? (God knows why). Wanna drop them off in the Yucatan, AS WELL?

How is my comment racist?
Canadians come here and work without a visa for less than min. wage?
If we find illegal immigrants, fine, get rid of them, but the Canadian government is not actively trying to undermine our attempt to reclaim our nation.
Racist? I really want you to explain that one? Mexico is a nation not a race. LOL!

Oh, please. Being disingenuous does not suit you.

Ironic, that post is the disingenuous one.
Every time someone in this illegal immigrant argument gets backed into a corner they yell racism.
I asked you specific questions. If you can't answer them, fine, slinging insults, just makes you look bad.

[zippyt]

they are called ILLEGAL immigrants for a reason , they broke the law and should be delt with accordingly . Period.
What the hell is Mex going to sue us about , securing our borders !!!!
FUCK THEM !!!
if life was better down there then folks wouldn't HAVE to sneak accross the border just to make enough money to support their familys .
Hell we should sue THE MEX GUBMENT for back pay for takeing care of their citizens !!!!
Just my little rant , as this WHOLE issue Pisses me off !!!

Exactly, I was being sarcastic by implying that we still have a bungling administration to unleash that will find a way to do to Mexico's government what it did to Iraq's, if push comes to shove with Mexico's interference in our domestic security.
