MEXICO CITY The Mexican government says it's disappointed that the U.S. Supreme Court upheld part of an Arizona law requiring police check the immigration status of anyone they stop.
The Mexican government has openly opposed Arizona's immigration law since it was passed in 2010. The statement said enforcing parts of the law that were upheld by the Supreme Court would lead to violations of the civil rights of Mexicans living in or visiting Arizona. It says the law doesn't recognize the many contributions immigrants make to their communities.
Mexico filed a "friend of the court" brief challenging the law in the Supreme Court case.

Mexico, don’t take chances. Come to AZ and get your citizens. We’ll even chip in to pay for the transport.

Obviously, that part of the ruling was correct, cosmically as well as natrually. Poor poor Mexico. Can’t shuffle off their excess on us.

Mexico wants us to think of them as just ordinary white folks ~ no different ~ so why would we want to ask them for their IDs.

Yet not a peep out of Mexico about the Obama/Holder Fast & Furious op that murdered hundreds of Mexicans. Selective outrage.

And what are they doing to illegals in Mexico?
Don't they have machine guns on their southern border and very harsh punishments?

What a dip-shite of a leader. He’s worthless to the people of Mexico.
Clean up your country. Get some Capitalization going. Has always worked better then anything else.
Working people are happy people.

I am sure Marco “La Raza” Rubio will kiss and make Mexico feel better...
What a craphole country you are if you are so worried about immigration policies of the nation you are deporting your people to. Mexico is a 3d World Latrine Pit

Statement:"...The statement said enforcing parts of the law that were upheld by the Supreme Court would lead to violations of the civil rights of Mexicans living in or visiting Arizona."
Response: This statement reflects the prevailing sophistry. The issue is NOT "civil rights"( A Mexican has a few "civil rights;"i.e. a Mexican can sue and be sued in our courts, can buy and sell property, though he cannot possess a gun etc.) but political rights. The Mexican has NO political rights in the United States; he cannot even be within U. S. borders absent written permission by a lawful U. S. Representative; he cannot vote, sit on a jury; hold public office etc.
"Civil rights" is always brought up due to its image inducing value of "equality," "The Black Struggle," and other such emotive language.

I think it means that this is the first shot at jeopardizing the $13 billion U.S. dollars in remittances leaving our hallowed halls to Mexico by the illegals. Remittances are second only to Pemex income to the State of Mexico. It’s major. sd

The Mexican government says it's disappointed that the U.S. Supreme Court upheld part of an Arizona law requiring police check the immigration status of anyone they stop. Of course, the Federales check the immigration status of anybody they stop, but that's different.

Good... I am happy that you do not like it. I despise the government of mexico. I do not despise or even dislike the people of Mexico. In fact... I feel sorry for them. Maybe they will rise up and take care of the cartels and the government thugocracy. There is much redundancy there.
