Mr. President, I’m Heading To Mexico\nPosted by The Watchdog - April 6th, 2006 \nDavid M. Bresnahan\nApril 1, 2006\nNewsWithViews.com \n\nDear President Bush: \n\nI’m about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family, and I would like to ask you to assist me. I’m going to walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and I need to make a few arrangements. I know you can help with this. \n\nI plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I’m sure they handle those things the same way you do here. \n\nSo, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that I’m on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following: \n\n1. Free medical care for my entire family.\n2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.\n3. All government forms need to be printed in English.\n4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.\n5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.\n6. I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.\n7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.\n8. I will need a local Mexican driver’s license so I can get easy access to government services.\n9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won’t make any effort to learn local traffic laws.\n10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.\n11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my house top, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.\n12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don’t enforce any labor laws or tax laws.\n13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy. \n\nI know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico. I am sure that Pres. Fox won’t mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely. \n\nThank you so much for your kind help. \n\nSincerely, \n\nDavid M.

Some Nat. Guard on the borders, but probably not enough to make a statement...because Mexico is our friend.  Fines for illegals and worker programs.  You didn't miss much.

In case U hadn't noticed, we can't invade Mexico because we ARE Mexico.  There R just as many Mexicans in the USA as there R down there.  The line that divides our 2 countries gets blurrier every day.  Our only course of action is 2 drag them up out of the gutter, upgrade their 3rd world status, fix them up like we did with Japan back in WWII.

I always believed Canada not to be a threat, then came Canadian Bacon, and eventually 9/11. They started out from Portland, Maine (my home state).\n\nThe mexican border (in my opinion) should be this:\n\n-A 20 foot tall, 10 foot wide cement (fortified with steel inside) barracade, with at least 5-10 feet buried underground the entire length of the US/Mexican border, with no entrances/exits within 25 miles of each other, and each of these border crossings are guarded heavily of no fewer than 25 armed soldiers/policemen/guards. More at bigger crossings\n\n-On each side of the "MEXICAN WALL" is a 20 foot high chain-link fence with barbed wire on the top. At least 5 feet is buried underground with barbed wire also on the ground. Each of these fences would be equipped with highly sensitive 'motion-detection' sensors, and inbetween the 25 mile border crossings (every 5 miles) would be a guard outpost of no fewer than 3 armed and ready guards, and a vehicle.\n\n-These guardhouses would be equipped with a large holding cell as well as 2 smaller cells, living quarters, and a field hospital.\n\nAnd thats what should be done.

They come here through various methods, from walking, swimming, etc., there have even been tunnels discovered that are air conditioned to get here.  Out of the 3 million illegals that came here last year, about 1400 or so died in the desert.  That survival is not a requirement to be legal, nor should it ever be.\n\nWomen who are pregnant on the border are given free access to our hospitals free of charge to have anchor babies through ambulances.\n\nRight now, if there were a 1 mile train coming from Mexico brimming with illegals the train could not be stopped because they are a common carrier.\n\nThey pay 'coyotes' to get them across.  I knew a guy that stayed stuck in a car for 9 days straight from around Guatemala to get here illegally.\n\nDon't forget also that the Mexican goverment prints and distributes a manual how to get here and end run our constitution to stay.  They tell their people we are stupid.  It irks me to find out that they are right about our leaders.\n\nThere are communities, some not more than three feet on the Mexican side having as many as 150,000 people waiting for their chance to hop the fence and get in.  Some of those places are so dangerous the Mexican police won't go there.  \n\nThe Mexican army shoots .50 caliber bullets at our border patrol, according to them almost every day, to protect drug smugglers and human traffikers to cross.\n\nOur people on the border have been accosted by armies of illegals crossing over and assaulting them and thier families - the Mexican Government keeps trying to sue them for civil rights violations for protecting theirselves, their property, and their families.\n\nAnyway you can think of to get here, they get here.  And people on both sides can and do get hurt.

Stop the leaks you can;\n Close all immigration till we work out our own problems. \n Fine and jail those who hire (just like selling liquor too minors-many will obey the best they  can if they know there is a stiff penalty).\n Deport and fine (if they have money on them) always.\n No benefits to Illegals-none not even school\n And yes get very tough at crossings since nice didn't work.

Enter Mexico illegally and you're treated as a felon. If you're caught by the Federal Police, you'll be fortunate if you're only deported immediately. The unfortunate are robbed, abused, raped, or even murdered by corrupt police officers. \nFernando Aguilar Neri coordinates Red Cross efforts to help illegal aliens in Mexico.\n“When people approach us, they are usually fearful that we work with the government and are afraid of being reported,” said Neri. “…One of the seven principles of the Red Cross is complete neutrality and independence, so we can't cooperate with the Mexican government on the illegal alien issue.”\nNeri says that most illegals moving through Mexico try to avoid the cities. \nThe Catholic Church also shields illegal aliens from the Mexican government. CBN found two shelters for illegals in Mexico City, but weren't allowed inside. \n\nMost of the Central Americans inside are on their way to the United States. They'll be fortunate if they arrive unharmed.  \n\nOne immigrant from El Salvador said, "If you are carrying any money, the police take the money and then say, get out of here." \n\n"We still have 20 days of travel (to reach the United States)," another one said.\n\nBut if you're a Mexican wanting to enter the U.S. illegally, then you can count on the Mexican government's help and support. It even has a special department called Grupos Beta that helps Mexicans cross the U.S. border illegally. \n\nBut in an interview with CBN News, the head of Mexico's Immigration Service, Hipolito Treviño, denied it.\n\n“Grupos Beta is the Mexican government initiative which does not help people cross the border, but they do assist them when they have problems in the border area,” Trevino said.\n\nBut Grupos Beta gives them a booklet, which includes tips on how to safely cross the U.S border. Trevino denied the allegation that immigrants are also given maps by the government.\n\n“No maps,” he said. “We give them recommendations about the dangerous animals they'll encounter, how much water they need every day, what to do in case they get lost, what to do in case they get detained by the border patrol, which paths are dangerous because of crime.”\n\nThe reason for the government's help? The cash sent home by Mexicans in the U.S. constitutes the second biggest source of foreign currency in Mexico after the oil industry. Last year that was $20 billion, or 2 percent of Mexico's GDP. \n\nAbout 10 percent of Mexico's population is now living in the United States, that’s over 10 million people. And how many illegal aliens in its own country has Mexico legalized in the past five years? Just 15,000.  \n\nThe Mexican government may think a new wall on the U.S. border is offensive, but critics are saying far worse things about Mexico's immigration policy.\nhttp://www.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/060815a.aspx

A bit off topic perhaps, but your question reminds me of Carlos Mencia's solution to getting all of the illegals out of the U.S.: \n\nWe should completely open the border. Then all of the illegals come up into the U.S. and it gets too crowded here and all of the people they were trying to get away from in Mexico will be here so they'll migrate North to get away again and they'll all be Canada's illegal immigrants and we can change the slur to from "wetbacks" to "frostbacks."

No need to conquer them.  Just ask them if they'd like us to annex them.  Put it up for vote in a Mexican election (We should allow Mexicans here to vote in it too).  America is great.  They know it, we know it, why not expand?

alligator moats...backed up by electric eels and the occasional (every 2 feet) landmine...then fine the crap out of companies using illegals...25 times their annual pay for 1st offense...escalating to complete takeover by the government...\ndeputize all citizens to allow for rounding them up if they make it across...30 dollar bounty \nno money transfer back to mexico unless it is taxed 100%..you want to send 50 bucks to mexico..it costs the price of the transfer plus 50 bucks for the gov't...

Do you mean keep the ones from Europe and kick out all the other ones.If so ,no.I think they should let all of them stay and tighten border security.

I don't want to take ANYthing from ANYbody. What I'd REALLY like to see everybody do is roll back down to Mexico, take what they've learned in OUR country, and apply it. Mexico's SOOOO close to being able to stand up and do the Right Thing, here, and take care of their own. They mainly just have to decide that they've GOT to do it, and get it done. There's no reason on god's green earth that they couldn't just get home, set up, and MAKE a lot of good things happen, just I don't think they really want to leave. If they'd do that, then they'd really and honestly be helping all the poor people that come running in every year, and that's how we end up at chapter 432 of a very boring, very predictable soap opera called The History Of The US/Mexico Border.\nI support helping Mexico, but helping Mexico to Do Right, which is to get their own economy going, to get their own infrastructure built, to take their own initative, and to do that instead of everybody just bolting for the United States. \n\nPeople commit crimes mainly because they've run out of other options. Some truly are maniacs, and incorrigibles, and they deserve a seat in the Big House. But, if people could make it on their own, likely they'd never get involved in all this garbage to begin with. Unfortunately, a lot of people have gotten involved in crime, because it DOES pay, at least it does the way we've been maintaining our borders these last 20 years. So, you tune up the borders, make em right, and I think you'll see a lot of stuff go away that was happening before. I think we also need to localize manufacturing. It's more efficient if you're not shipping stuff 1/2way around the world etc. You get americans producing goods for americans IN america, mexicans producing goods for mexicans IN mexico, so forth, and so on. Import raw materials etc., but other than that localize your manufacturing so as to lessen transport costs, fuel usage, and so forth. In an efficient economy, in theory at least, there wouldn't be all that much imports etc., because you'd be making what you need/use locally.\nWhat we have now is inefficient, imagine in the case of the illegal aliens if your 'commute' was 700 miles or more.\n\nMexico's GOT a 1 trillion dollar economy. That's very positive.\nBut, they need to figure out how to BOOST it, legally, to the point where they can really start investing in the things that'll support all their people.  \n\nThere's a lot of problems with today's status quo, the best fix for the ones between our country and mexico and canada would be to fix the borders. Do that, and I think a lot of other things will straighten themselves out, too.\n\nI'm against illegal immigration, period. If you're in the country illegally, that's criminal trespass, right there. But, as long as businesses keep hiring people in violation of the law, people will come seeking jobs. So, stop the illegal hiring, make it really really hard to get into the country illegally to begin with, and you'll have fixed some things. \n\nThe world isn't perfect, and there's no magic wand to wave over other people's problems, or our own for that matter. Comma. There are some fundamental basic principles that can be successfully observed and applied, and one of those is that spending 1/2 your energy just getting to work is pretty wasteful.\n\nI support helping Mexico, but in much more structured ways, \nthey have a big cement company, cement can pour foundations for homes, they have many people seeking work, they've got money, like I say what I think is lacking is the will to do it. \nThe border fence kind of has one purpose, to help them find the will to do for themselves, and not have every one of their problems have the common answer of 'get it from the United States'. Mexico's even got minerals etc. They really CAN do it for themselves. \n\nI hope

1--Enforce the border, even if it means with troops.  This is an invasion.\n\n2--Sanction those who hire them.  I mean jail.  Even for little old ladies who hire them to mow the lawn.  If there is no work, they will not come.\n\n3--End birthright citizenship.  These women who come over to shell out a kid so it will be a US citizen are a problem.\n\n4--NO government benefits for illegals.  I mean no school, no health care no food stamps, no nothing.  That will also slow it down.  \n\n5--National Identity card for all, with biometrics.  I used to be against this, but desperate times call for desperate measures.\n\n6--Major jail time for the coyotes.  That is if we don't shoot them as invaders and leave their bones to bleach.

It could all be resolved simply by posting troops on the border. Since 9-11, the rules have changed, if mexicans or whoever at any border can come across freely so can terrorists. I say troops on the border for national security.

It may sound cruel but all benefits must be stopped to the illegals. Period. That goes for the children they have too. If we can get the guts to deny them it is possible they will leave. I think I read where Texas is sending a bill to Mexico for services to the illegals.  That is a great idea.  Hold Mexican assets and take the cost of services to their citizens. Mexico would then do something about the boarder.

There is not a unique solution, there are many steps to take in this problem. (I'll talk about Mexican speacially, since i'm from Mexico, and i know my country is the main source of immigrants to the USA)\n\nAn important one is, in Mexico we need to find solutions to improve our country's Economy. That should be our objective, in order to stop the emigration of our people, use inside my country all of that power of labor. And reforce our identity, making our families to reunite and reintegrate to our comunity.\n\nAnother step is that the USA should recognize the need of that labor, and increase the amount of work permises they give to foraigners. \n\nAnd i really believe there is the need to create some programs to make legal the illegals, there must be some way to give those persons who have been living in the USA for years, a way to stay, they have already made a life, maybe have a house, or family, and there are millions of them. It wouldn't be human just to deporte them back to their origin countries.\n\nAnother important one is to increase the border security, and in that point the Mexican and American governments need to work togheter, because incresing the border security is not about killing the people who try to tresspass.\n\nAnd another one is that we need to stop the hates, and the names, and the confrontation. In fact, i would say you could have not said "except racist" - that encourage the confrontation, and that is something in this moment we must stop.\n\nAmericans, Mexicans, and all of the immigrants should stop the hating and start the talking.

All we need are national guard on the boarder till more boarder agents are employed. However the only people that can put them there are the Govenors of each state or Bush. Call your Govenors and tell them what you think of this.\n\nI don't give a damn how poor Mexico is, It is not our problem. Mexico is getting bashes because they have been the most vocal and militant on the issue. And because they are swarming our boarders at over 8,000 per day. Most other countries are now using that boarder as well. 8 chinese were caught a week back. Our northern boarders are not as wide open. All illegal aliens need to go home.\n\n The definition of domestic terrorism from the US Code \nUS Code 802, Section 2331 Read sction 5 \nhttp://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode18/usc_sec_18_00002331----000-.html \n\n\nTITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 113B > § 2331 Prev | Next \n\n§ 2331.
