This is precisely why we need our military at the border.
Quote:
Migrant shelters along the border say they're bracing for new arrivals after the law goes into effect on Thursday. The Mexican Consulate in Phoenix has added more workers to assist detained nationals. And migrants who have already been deported said they're watching carefully to see how the law is enforced before deciding whether to cross the border into Arizona again.
This week, the Mexican Interior Ministry promised to redouble efforts to protect migrants in response to a report by the United Nations that accused police of robbing and extorting migrants, among other abuses.
But the government has not removed a controversial clause, known as Article 67, that requires Mexican authorities to check the immigration papers of all foreigners who come to them for help.
You'd think that all of these people against Arizona's law would show the same disgust towards Mexico for their laws and treatment towards immigrants.
Ya, there needs to be some backup when the sheet hits the fan.
Sounds like the law is already working, before it goes into effect.
Imagine what would happen if our Federal Government announced that effective September 1, ALL immigration laws would be strictly enforced, including the arrest and prosecution of ALL who employ illegals. Illegals would self-deport, just as they are doing in Arizona.

With Mexico crapping their draws and preparing for the worst (or should call we this a backlash?). This pretty much proves that everything being said and every accusation against SB 1070 are all cow patties and Obama will the first to have his face shoved into the biggest one.
