Every Central American immigrant that arrives in the U.S. had to first pass through Mexico, which raises the question: How should Mexico respond?

EXCERPT---LONG READ--Former judge, Cong Louie Gomert (R-Texas) ---- As I understand, the current law prohibits encouraging or inducing and also prohibits aiding and abetting. That's generally the language we have in the State penal code here in Texas. But 4437 adds the words ''assists and directs'' to plug the gaps in the current law.
And I can understand persons who believe that it should not be a crime at all. But it still kind of begs the question, wouldn't it be better, if that is your view, to have it a misdemeanor than a felony? So that, though, is still a little hard to understand if that's the position.
But my good friend Mr. Reyes made the point that corruption doesn't recognize international boundaries, and that's what we've been hearing in the evidence here today, and that's true.
But we've heard the expression before that capital is a coward, that money for investment will flow into areas where it is least at risk, which is one of the reasons so much money has come to the United States from investment and continues, because even though there is some corruption here and we continue to need to pursue it and never should rest, but that it is safer here than it is in Mexico because there is more corruption there.
So I would submit to you that corruption is a coward. And we ought to encourage our neighbors to the south to be about the business of enforcing the law, and that needs to become with an—become an exclamation point.
And I could not agree more with my friend Congressman Reyes who said we should not just hire 2,000 Border Patrol agents 1 year and 200 the next. That has got to be an ongoing continuing battle. We appropriated, I believe, more than $275 million, more than the Administration had asked for last year, which shows really the heart of where we are in the House of Representatives.
But I also think it's worth noting, when it comes to compassion and caring, the United States has traditionally voted for issues of compassion and human rights in the United Nations. And I haven't seen yet the new figures for 2005, but I saw the numbers for 2004 and was staggered to see that our neighbor to the south votes against the United States' position nearly three-fourths of the time. So it would be good to have a neighbor that was more on board with us in some of these areas.---snip--
Mexico is doing enough to continue to weaken the USA and push its advantage and influence on the USA.
Who cares how Mexico responds. Our response is the only one that matters and we know our government has fallen down on that job.
Mexico can’t even control it’s interior. How the hell can they do anything other than just exist? The question is ignorant.
They will control their southern border when we start pushing these people back and they are stuck with them.
That headline is the biggest laugh.
Nope, and being a willing accomplice in this is an act of war.
“Is Mexico Doing Enough to Secure Its Southern Border?”
Ha! Is this a rhetorical question?
Is he kidding? Mexico is HELPING the illegal immigrants to transverse their country.
Just like Iran used children to clear mines in front of their troops in the war against Iraq in the 70’s, so does Mexico use them in their re-conquest of America.
“Doing Enough”?I’ll bet they’re handing out free burritos!!!
They don’t care about those from the south. Those from the north will get thrown in jail for months.
Shoot them?
Which begs the question, Are WE doing enough to secure our borders?
NO!!!!!
Why throw it on the shoulders of Mexico.
