It is dangerously close to running our own government from Mexico City (you can take the "Israeli influence" and compare it to Mexico's and it isn't even a close comparison). They are completely unable and/or unwilling to stop the massive flow of drugs into this country.
I guess as long as we can use their beaches, we are okay with Mexico. Silly.
We need to invade them. They are our number one enemy.
Surely, you must see the irony in this statement.

Yes, it's likely this sovereign country would like the part of their country back that we took by force.

Nah, my friend from Mexico is so angered by her fellow Mexican-Americans who can't see the forest for the trips, and who make ALL of them look bad by engaging in rampant criminality.
She would treat Mexico and the illegals much harsher than even I would........

How about just building a wall and enforcing US immigration laws? Either that, or Trump's idea of sending all the illegals to the sanctuary cities.
How about bringing the immigration laws to 2019 and make eVeriify mandatory. Oops I used that bad word again didn’t I ? Nobody will even mention it-

Just wanted to make sure you noticed it.

Akin to starting a neighborhood war because the guy down the street is coming for the truck of his that you stole.

And then you believing you're in the right, and the guy down the street is in the wrong.

I have never seen a more obtuse thread title and premise. It actually serves to show how the Internet gave a voice and platform to everybody regardless of their grasp on reality and knowledge.

IMO, there has always been a problem with Mexicans coming to the USA for work due the the economy and culture in Mexico.

The ones in Texas started going home when they could get jobs there. Like making appliances and water heaters, etc.

The current influx are not Mexicans. But they are easily passing through Mexico. Just like the drugs from Columbia, etc.

But, it's hard for me to get upset about drugs when American troops are protecting the poppy fields in Afghanistan. Or is that just urban rumor?

And it is also hard to get upset about the Mexicans when the Chinese are sending spies here to work. And
bring technology back to China. I knew China was buying up stuff around Princeton just to get a foot in the door. Why else would they want a small, excellent but obscure choir college located in Princeton. But now they have also started in on medical research at MD Anderson.
