with all the violence in Mexico, will it cross over into the states and force stricter immigration laws?

Its already getting across the Borders into our Country. The gangs and roving band of thugs that have freedom to roam and rampage are coming across when ever they want. They run drugs, people and what ever contraband they want. The Border Patrol is a joke, because there is NEVER enough people to police the border. A few hundred people for 4000 miles of border? LETS GET REAL!  One person for a hundred miles of border aint gonna cut it.  Cameras and sensors record them coming over, but, it doesnt matter, they do what they want.\n\nImmagration is a joke, and the joke is making us look bad. \nUntil the Government takes an active stand, (and they wont, because they know which way the wind blows for votes), we will be a free border with a few sent back for the Media.\n\nJesse

No. Mexico is governed by different laws and your US citizenship doesn't make you immune to them. \n\nUnless they have laws allowing freedom to protest peacefully you're gonna get in trouble. \n\nAmerican citizenship is not immunity to international law.

it's not right because innocent people that are trying to get by are being sent away.  We should have mexico become one of our states.

No and it is doubtful that they would be. Mexican nationals, coyotes (people smugglers), and illegal immigrants themselves DO NOT WANT the border closed. As a result I would be very doubtful that nukes, terrorists, etc. would find crossing the border from Mexico appealing. Mexicans will not allow terrorism to cross that border because it would result in its closing.

Not at all, it shouldn't.\nIn fact, if it's been condemned by European countries, and Canada, Mexico shouln't have any other position about it.\nAltougth, we have to be very carefully about dealing on this matters because the dificulties on the Mexico-USA relation have been having on the last times.

When martial law spreads across the USA, I will be the first one jumping fences to get into Mexico!!

Physically, no.  The United States does have the power and ability to defend its borders.\n\nThere is the matter of political willpower.  That is where the weakness lies.  The politicians see the immigrants illegally coming over the border in one of two ways: potential voters and potential employees.  Either way, neither political party will do much more than lip service to shore up the Border Patrol to prevent illegal crossings.

I never experienced anything quite like that when I went to Mexico, but I'm sure it's because I was with a Mexican citizen (my ex-husband--we were there to get his US citizenship). But we were badly over charged for goods and services many places we went because I was a white American. He was majorly pissed, but even he knew there was nothing we could do about it. I would not go back there because I know I would face a lot of prejudice, at this time especially. The violence against tourists from the US could eventually keep all of us away. But if that's what they want then I will respect it. We need to send their citizens back home to them as well. Respectfully deport them and enforce our immigration laws. We don't want to repay violence with violence unless we have no choice.

absolutely, Mexico is a good example.  Where a few super rich control the government.  Have drug lords controling the rest.  Keep the populous in abject poverty.  The brutality is over whelming.  The masses could over throw the few and take back there government and establish one that isn't so corrupt.  That would benefit the people.\nimmigrateing to America while understandable is hardly the answer.

They have the exact laws we want here for the most part but can't get any results from our leaders.\n\nMexico can hurt and kill us there legally, but god forbid we violate their civil rights here to protect our families.

Perhaps but without the same results.Trust me it will never happen..Its a fairy tail just like Aztlan.It is their Land of OZ.\nThere will never be a "take over" of the southwest,\ndo they honestly think that we would sit by and allow that to happen.I live in AZ and all I can say is "Shoot your best shot" because we aren't giving up anything to anyone.This southwest belongs to and is part of the United States of America. And we legal Americans aren't going anywhere.We are prepared for anything..\n\nThis statement by the founder of La Raza Unida wasn't being PC was he\n\n"We have an aging white America ... They are dying ...We have got to eliminate the gringo, and what I mean by that is if the worst comes to the worst, we have got to kill him." Jose Angel Gutierrez, professor, University of Texas, Arlington\n\nor this by another group \n\n"If anyone's going to be deported, it's going to be you! ... Get out! We are the future. You're old and tired. Go on. We have beaten you – leave like beaten rats. You old white people, it is your duty to die. Right now, we're already controlling those elections, whether it's by violence or nonviolence. Through love of having children we're going to take over." Augustin Cebada, information minister of Brown Berets, militant para-military soldiers of Aztlan shouting at U.S. citizens at an Independence Day rally in Los Angeles. \n\nThat seems pretty direct to me,how about you ?\nThis video may help you to see more clearly.\nhttp://usawakeup.org/HowToDestroyAmerica.htm

Good luck Mexico has very strict immagration laws and unless your a citizen you really have no real rights.

I doubt it. Investment in Mexico by US citizens is strictly limited. Mexico dose not want immigration from the US and has resisted any measures to affect the drug trade significantly.  La mordida still rules in Mexico. In fact, native Mexicans look down on their American Mexicans cousins. Ironic isn't it.

This IS what's coming right to your neighborhood: \n\nOne of these days in the near future, these millions of illegals are going to become berserkers. \nIt is the intention of Mexicans to "reclaim" the four border states and merge them back with Mexico and they are willing to do it with violence. \nThese 15 million plus illegals will go on a rampage the minute any serious round up and deportation begins, but it must get done for the very surivival of Our Republic, Our Standard of Living and Our Culture.

This has been going on in Mexico for the past 150 years.  In this case they claim several things the main being that they are not happy with the results of the last election.  Was it really fixed,...duh  this is Mexico!.     The violence is much greater closer to the U.S. border but the instigators are admittedly different, Oaxaca involves more professionals (ie teachers).  There is very little respect for law in Mexico.  hmmm, seems to be a little of that slipping up north from there too.

Yes..we will see these cities and towns all across America adopting similar action. America wants to be a lawful society and we are seeing that it happens.

Some parts are safer than others but it is not a safe place in general. Mexico is a country that teeters on the verge of revolution. It is unstable and unpredictable. Its only a matter of time until violence against Americans increases.
