On March 14, 2000, "two Mexican army Humvees carrying about 16 armed soldiers drove across the international boundary and into the United States near Santa Teresa, New Mexico,"
I see they haven't lost their pension for packing them in. It didn't mention wether or not the HMMWV's springs were cut down. [;)] |

I think we should have the Army posted along the border from here to South Texas.
When we have that secured, there's always the Canadian front, but guess what, it's not the Canucks coming down here. Half the Chinese illegals I know came through Canada. |

This is so depressing [:(] AZ has changed so much in the last 2 decades that it doesnt even seem like the place i grew up in.What really bothers me is that most the LEO's shot in the past few years have all been shot my Mexican nationalist.Everyday on the local news you hear of violence or the new fad of Home invasion and you can almost bet that the victim or detainie will be of a down south origin.Maybe we should play COWBOYS AND MEXICANS and show the rest of the country that here in the US we have laws and if they dont like it.Then they should stay down south.

What I don't get is why you southerners are waiting for the feds to clean up your state problems???
Why haven't you pushed your states into enforcing their international borders? Whats the matter, is Arizona afraid of raising taxes to raise the manpower? How about reinstituting the state militia with all Class III rights granted to all enforcers? Modern day Texas Rangers! Anyone have any ideas for these pathetic states? Your problem Mexicans end up in NY, especially on long island where the infestation of them is worsening by the hour. |

Ten years ago I had the great pleasure of drinking cervesa and shooting M-16's with some of the Mexican Army's finest. We were drinking down in the Big Bend at Lajitas and a deuce-and-a-half comes rolling up from the low water crossing. Seems they were in need of some liquid refreshment too. Couple hours later they had the great idea of target practice, so we shot back over the Rio Grande into Mexico using some trees and cactus as targets. We left before they did so maybe they're still occupying the place. That was back in the days of the beer drinking goat Henry Clay who was the elected Mayor of Lajitas at the time. Things are looser on the border.

Violence isn't the only way to take over a state. All it takes is for a minority group to become the majority. If there are enough mexicans in the southern states eventually they will be able to elect whoever they want and take over. Say goodbye to Texas, Cali., NM, etc. Eventually even the US itself may become a part of Mexico. That's the problem with Mexicans, they can easily breed us out since the inflow is massive. The border needs to be sealed. Bush cares only about his political career not about the future. I hope Laura is with him when he gets capped, which I do expect to happen soon.

Anyone have any ideas for these pathetic states? Your problem Mexicans end up in NY, especially on long island where the infestation of them is worsening by the hour. You must be aware this is a federal issue and the states don't have much to say about it. When our own Gov. Wilson sued the feds for funds to pay for illegals using our medical facilities, the feds basically laughed at him. That was during Bush Senior's term IIRC. We didn't get a dime to pay their hospital bills nor did we get increased border control. Our state was forced to foot the bill entirely. So, say AZ did raise taxes for more policing on the border. Would these new police have authority to arrest the illegals? Or is that domain reserved for the BP? I don't know. What I do know is using your logic I shouldn't give a crap about illegals from Puerto Rico invading the East Coast. I mean, that's an East Coast problem, right? Can't you people deal with your illegals? In fact, I do care and I hope every state eventually exercises its power in this regard. If not, the people may have to get involved. |

This is the EXACT reason that America needs to return to an isolationist position.
We need to round up all the illegals, all the "student visa" holders and boot them all out of the country. The illegals put strains on the economy by using medical centers, collecting unemployment, and sending money back to their countries. It's time to employ the National gaurd units in the boarder states and allow citizens to be deputized to patrol the boarders. We are being invaded from the North, South, east, and West, by people who want to sponge off of America. Time to cut them off. [smoke] |

There are increasing problems with illegal immigration from Mexico – and I do not want to minimize those problems. However, as a Euro/Gringo who has lived in Mexico for 7 years, I can tell you that the idea that Mexico wants to take over ANY part of the U.S. is the most illogical and UNMITIGATED BULLSHIT I have read on this forum (and that's saying a lot).
EVERY Mexican knows that if they took over any part of the U.S. it would rapidly degenerate into the economic chaos and corruption that typifies of the rest of Mexico and simply raise the latitude they must trespass a reach the 'good life'. More than anything else, most of the Mexican people want the U.S. to remain (at the very least) exactly as it is – a place that is NOT MEXICAN; a place and a lifestyle they can aspire to, and somewhere they may, one day, escape to – illegally or otherwise! Contrary to many of the paranoid ravings that have compiled this thread, the Mexicans would like nothing more than for the U.S. to take over Mexico and bestow on them all the benefits, sense of equal opportunity and social justice that the U.S. can provide. Only their national pride and unique sense of cultural values prevents the majority from admitting this in any public forum. Given the chance, they would jump at the chance to enjoy the lifestyle presented by the most down-at-heel U.S. sitcom, from which they learn most of their English (God help them!). It does not take 7 years living here to realize this, nor does it take a giant brain to fathom the logic. All it requires is a moments' lucid thought. Ask yourself, who would want to turn their major hope; their dreams and aspirations for themselves and their kids, into the current reality of a Mexico they are so desperately trying to escape from? |

For perspective it may help to remember that one city in Mexico, Mexico City, has more people livlng in it than the entire state of Texas. 22,000,000 by last count. That's a city the size of Houston, 3,500,000 people, more than live in Texas now. |

Ask yourself, who would want to turn their major hope; their dreams and aspirations for themselves and their kids, into the current reality of a Mexico they are so desperately trying to escape from? Stcyr apeaks a lot of truth here. Mexico is a country rich in resources and people. It is also a country where the riches are controlled by a VERY SMALL segment of the population. The ruling aristocracy in Mexico has been in power so long they have become basically feudal in nature. Stcyr can address this much better than me. Mexico does not enjoy a large middle class as we have here in the USA. There is a middle class of professionals and business people but it's neither large nor powerful. And the "Peso Crisis" of a few years ago looked to me like a vehicle for ruling class to disenfranchise the nascent entrepreneurial middle class. I'd have to agree the vast majority of Mexican citizens would rather see their country become more like the USA than have their rulers and government take-over part of the USA. Citizens of Mexico, especially those living in Mexico City are among the most entrepreneurial (there's that word again) people I've ever met. Mexico itself is very different from what it's like on the border. |

That being said, the political power of the Hispanic vote is just now being realized. In last week's election in Texas over one-third of the total vote was Hispanic. Hispanic dominance in the Southwest is a fact and what will be done with it is up to the people. It's not an us/them thing. Hispanic culture is integral to life here. Hispanics are not one-tenth of the population, they have always been a much larger, more integrated part of society here in the Southwest. Always has been whether the media recognized it or not. If Hispanic politicians want to make it better for everyone, so much the better. |

Whoever posted this threade needs to put their tinfoil hat back on.
Let's see what happened: Some Mexican soldiers get lost and accidentally cross the border. BP finds them, everythings cool, they go back. Whats the big deal? Personally I'm for thousands more Mexican Army troops on the border, since that might cut down on the flow of illegals and violence. The story about the shooting (while serious) is TWO YEARS OLD! I'm sure our boys have gotten lost and accidentally crossed the border before. Should the Spaniards have killed the Brits who missed Gibralter a couple of weeks ago? And at least the Mexican troops were armed. Today 200 National Guard troops were deployed to the SD border area. UNARMED!!! WTF?!? Who's bright idea was that? Tom "Feels Good" Ridge? Unarmed troops..that should stop about 2 or 3 illegals. |
