That's how far down the drain this country has gone -- we can't even enforce the laws already on the books.
And when CA's legislature vote to ignore US immigration laws and the provision in the ACA for illegals to not get taxpayer subsidized medical insurance.................DOJ..........Crickets.

It is true Mexico depend on tourism and time share , like in Rocky Point Mexico. If American stop rewarding Mexico and hold up all aid money we can have a very frank conversation with the Mexican President and Congress.

Arizona and Texas has stepped despite the show boating of the DOJ, who is suppose to have the best interest of the country at hand.

The California Senate and house had the audacity to boycott Arizona? This simply the People of Arizona was tired of the failed Obama Adminstration to even up hold the laws of this country. There is a reason why most Arizonians and Texans look t Cali Liberals Squinty eye.

"Latin" cultures don't have the rep of understanding "No" IMHO. Unless that message is backed up by an iron fist, then LatAm WILL back down.

Calling an Argentine an Argie is akin to calling the Japanese Japs. In other words, rude

Kind of like how the US likes to meddle in affairs around the world. Looks like Vietnam wasn't enough to bruise the U.S.'s arrogant ego

If talking about illegal aliens; we def have the RIGHT to deport them, if that hurts another country's feelings, I DON'T care.

Vietnam from what I read; had we decided to play for keeps, we'd have won that war, but we were too nice.

Argentina: if that country's stupid enough to mix it up with England again; it really needs to be put in its place. Period.

Our political/foreign policies in regards to any conflicts we have had on foreign soil has absolutely nothing to do with our right to make our own immigration policies just as every other country has that right. Some people will even go off topic and bring straw man arguments into the debate to demonize us for objecting to illegal immigration. Their desperate attempts are laughable.

? Plus these same Countries do not have a plan to help their own and they depend on American Dollars flowing back to Mexico, Guatemala and Arges.
What are they going to do sue Texas and Arizona for letting these countries break our laws. I can almost see a lain augment.

Well the US has enforce laws in the past, why start now?

I hope the park a Bradly Tank every 1 mile on the boarder.

Those British are such gentlemen, all they did was take back what was theirs. If it were me I would have fired missiles at Buenos Aires until they gave me Patagonia or something.

Like you said, some cultures only accept brute force.

They still won't accept that the Falklands are British ... even after 99% of the islanders voted to stay British.
