Just another reason to close the damn borders and deporting each and every damn illegal in this country. Right now there should be NO passage aloowed from Mexico into our country or anyone from our country allowed into Mexico.

Deadly new flu strain erupts in Mexico, U.S.
I'm sure you like me are not surprised by this. It is pathetic isn't it? I don't know what in the hell they are thinking but I think it's way past time for them to seal the border and order mass roundups and deportations.

This is a deveolping story. Stay tuned.
From reading it's the young and healthy that are dying..just like the Spanish Flu.

Most Mexico fatal flu victims aged between 25-45 | Reuters

which means they are dying from being too healthy..just like Spanish Flu:

Ebola is definitely a possibility. We have illegal aliens here by the millions, none of whom have been checked for diseases. Thus, there is no 3rd world disease/virus that can be counted out.

You will notice that our idiot government will not close the borders though. There should not be any crossing allowed until this disease is contained. But of course, it seems that our government cares more about Mexico and Mexicans than they do for their own citizens, as have been proven over the last couple of decades.

You will notice that the CDC has said that it is too late to contain. Can you believe that? I think this has all been planned.

I can believe it. Nothing surprises me anymore. However, my level of anger, frustration and disgust has no limit.
