What are we going to do about it? Wait until some innocent bystander is killed by an illegal alien? No, that's already happened in spades. Call Fox and complain? Invade Mexico? Cut off the remittances? That last suggestion might bear fruit.
Mexico is a terrible country and many of its most terrible people are seeping across the border. Mexicans are forcing honest Americans out of the construction trades and the elites loves it. The elites on both sides of the border
The serf class and peasant class of Mexico is being driven into the United States by the racist white European ruling families of Mexico. And Jorge Bush is just fine with that.
OK, lets all recite the Solution again--
"Regime Change for Mexico."
but the sentiments of over 90% of Americans fall on deaf ears....
They are only doing jobs thast Americans won't take.
"They are only doing jobs thast Americans won't take."
The is US doesn't have any indigenous Mafia types?
Mexico is not a terrible country. Guatemala is a terrible country, Honduras is a terrible country, Paraguay...
Mexico is a country whose ruling class sees dumping their poor on the US and periodically crushing their middle class as their way to stay on the top of the heap. The people who come here illegally fall into two broad categories; good people who are trying to get away from a system that is stacked against them and are willing to do anything to get out, and people who see the US as the big piñata and are here to take advantage of a system that lets them take advantage of it.
Either way, they broke our laws. The problem is, there are between 8 and 11 million of them and there is no way that we are going to deport the equivalent of greater LA. (No matter how much some of us would like to do exactly that.) The solution has to start with closing our borders - north and south. Until we do that we will achieve nothing.
Our current situation is roughly equivalent to that which the Roman empire faced in the fourth century. We either abandon the Limes and wait for the mob to sack our cities or we handle the situation better than they did.
I've been saying the same for a while. Their job is to get here illegally and our job is to keep them out, that should be our job but we treat it like a joke. There are wretched poor across this planet and Mexico are far from the worst off.

The Mexican drug gangs themselves are terrorists, but they also work together with MidEastern terrorists in a symbiotic relationship. Some Muslim extremists are also gang members and vice versa.
The solution to both problems is to shut the borders, and free trade be damned!
Hey, that was my idea!
<grin>
If we cut off the remittances, 90% of the wetbacks would pack up and go home overnight.
And you know what?
Somehow, we'd manage!
Invading Mexico has a positive ring to it!
" The Zetas, who are accused off carrying out killings and acting as drug couriers for the cartel, are regarded by U.S. law enforcement officials as expert assassins who are especially worrisome because of their elite military training and penchant for using AR-15 and AK-47 assault rifles.
"The Zetas are bold, ruthless and won't think twice about pulling the trigger on a cop or anyone else who gets in their way," said the former Dallas narcotics officer, who asked not to be identified."
Or, as I'm sure you referred to them during college (as did we all), "Zoo Phi Boogas"...
We called them Zeta Fat Beta. They were some KFC eatin' sistas!
I had never heard of this Mexican drug gang. I'm in Dallas, so I'm paying attention now.
Just repeat after me: "Family values don't stop at the Rio Grande." (including Gambino family values).
"If we cut off the remittances, 90% of the wetbacks would pack up and go home overnight."
No they wouldn't and how are you going to cut off remittances anyway?
"Mexico is a terrible country and many of its most terrible people are seeping across the border"
It hasn't always been that way. It used to be a safe place full of friendly people. The war on drugs has driven a major market underground and provides criminals with huge amounts of money to buy police, judges, military, etc.etc.
It is driving the corruption and violence in Mexico. If it continues, Mexico will become just like Columbia, complete with Marxist rebels and a 100% corrupt government. Eventually, the US will fall too.
