I just wanted to point out that only about 5.7 million (52%) of the 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. are from Mexico.

Mexico gives the other 48% a fast track to the U.S. border

Absolutely, because everyone knows that all the illegals from China, Korea and India & the Philippines enter the US through Mexico

Maybe for you, especially you do not seem to like a lot of your fellow Mexicans very much. Maybe you should find a place more to your liking and move to it, I would if I did not like a place and have, just common sense.
Really ? I didnt even know.

Well...we dont mind.

Remember that the first illegal alliens were the "anglos" when Texas was part of us. They betrayed our conditions of living in Mexico when we opened our bourders to white-anglos.

Yeah! It is just karma bro!

Yeah, you know, those fruit picking and lawn mowing jobs are SOOOOO lucrative ! Such great working conditions too, you get to work on your tan all day long. American workers are lining up to get these great jobs by the millions.

Yeah, especially for fruit harvesting, and other agricultural jobs, the visas are essentially unlimited in number.

That is for those who believe the 11 million number. If we can account for them, then why are they still here? It makes no sense. And if that number is leaving out millions who are not accounted for, how many of those unaccounted for, are from Mexico?

Also, the article states there is a large uptick from Central America. Most of those people come through Mexico. So they should be added to the total that are coming over the Mexican-American border. I don't really care where their country of origin is. I care about how they are sneaking into the country.

That all being said, who cares where they are from? Mexico, Central America, Asia, Europe, Canada. Send them all home and let them stand in line to immigrate legally, just like everyone else.
