And these devices shipped to leftist icons, today? Except they were all duds delivered to scare or garner sympathy as a hoax.

It’s a distraction designed to knock the Southern Army of Invaders off the Front Page.

And we instantly have more uniformed armed big tough looking men marching about the streets of NYC & the hills of Chappaqua then we do protecting our vulnerable border.

Put those dedicated LEO on the Rio Grande and protect America until we get the wall.

#ShamefulHoax

No ‘invasion’ and No ‘occupation’ DD. It’s all a matter of semantics, right?

Call it what you want, an invasion is still an invasion and an occupation is still an occupation. I doubt Mexico is going to be thrilled with either.

When the United States signed on to the convention in ’68, LBJ and his people lied to the Senate and to Americans and assured them that it wouldn’t change anything about our system. The convention however is the most damaging piece of immigration law that doesn’t carry Ted Kennedy’s name.

There IS a way out of this horror... Thank God... there is a way out...

Never going to happen. The 30 million or so illegals in the US would be revolutionaries in Mexico. Sending them North is the only way the ruling class has remained in power this long.

The military was practicing for such an invasion back in the 50's.

I still think the first step should be implement eVerify and require it for all current and future workers. Start starving them out and let them self-deport. Closing and securing the border is key next step. But what about these millions? Both the 30-60 million in the US, plus the millions coming or planning to come? Something needs to be done to not only repatriate them, but make them safe when we do. If we can’t shoot them, need to make sure someone else doesn’t once they are sent home.

I beg to differ. Mexico will be bribed with Two words: Cut Remittances. Remittances rose to $2.60 billion in December from $2.34 billion 12 months earlier, Banco de Mexico said in a statement. Total transfers in 2017 were up nearly 7 percent from a record $27.0 billion in 2016. Mexicans abroad sent record $28.8 bln home in 2017 | Reuters https://www.reuters.com/.../mexico...remittances/mexicans-abroad-sent-record -28-8-bln-home-in-2017-idUSL2N1PR1G7 Mexicans in U.S. send cash home in record numbers - Business https://money.cnn.com/2018/01/02/.../mexico-remittances/index.html‎ Jan 2, 2018 ... Mexicans sent home $26.1 billion from January to November 2017, according to figures released Tuesday by the central bank of Mexico. That's the most ever recorded and better than the $24.1 billion sent in 2016 over the same period. Record remittances of $28.7 billion in 2017 - Mexico News Daily https://mexiconewsdaily.com/.../record-remittances-of-us-28-7-billion-in- 2017/‎ Feb 3, 2018 ... The total was up 6.6% due to fears over immigration and other issues ... and other themes drove remittances to an all-time high in 2017.

And how will you do that? Cut any remittance going to Mexico and within a week there will be hundreds of outlets helping Mexicans route money to Mexico through Canada or the Bahamas or Panama or any number of countries.

If you are here illegally and working without a green card - You should not be allowed to work and get a paycheck. Those billions of dollars shipped abroad need to seized. They are illegal gains.

You should be able to do that without invading Mexico. But it's been going on for decades and nobody has been able to stop it yet.

Why do YOU keep using the word invading? There is NO invasion. We have helped protect borders all over the world, now we need to defend ours.

No one has wanted to stop it yet, is the problem.

“We should have keep what we took, including Mexico City, back in 1846-48.”

I was ridiculed at a California Republican Assembly meeting probably thirty years ago, when I postulated that the cheapest solution to our problems with Mexico at that time, would be to invade and take it over. Southern Europeans, and the countries their progeny control in Central and South America, are culturally different than those who founded America and to a lesser extent, Canada (because Canada made the mistake of not kicking the French out). They simply don't have the genetics to run countries successfully. And it isn't the fault of the indigenous people in these places, it's plain and simply the European “leadership” from Spain and Portugal.

So are you proposing an armed invasion of Mexico so we can do this “carve out”?
Yup.

What about Mexico’s sovereignty? Are you asking for a declaration of war?
Nope, just the threat. i.e. "You stop 'em or we will come down and do your job. We'll leave when they're gone."

We enforce our sovereignty by having borders, not by keeping people from approaching them from the outside.
We enforce our sovereignty by being proactive, not hunkering down like the French at the Maginot Line.

You can say it as long as you like but its impractical and dumb and will never happen.
Not impractical - doable, but our politicians have to have some spine, so I agree that from that standpoint, it will never happen. When the Mexicans complain about our incursion, tell 'em "Now you know how we feel. Do your freaking job."

Build the damn wall!
A long term solution. For a short one, see above.

50 years ago I wrote a paper in English class suggesting that we annex Mexico. It’s not too late! By the way I was given a “F”, Teacher deemed it hateful.
