In Mexicali, Mexico, temperatures can reach 125 degrees as heat envelops an arid desert. Without a body of water nearby to moderate the climate, the heavy sun is relentless — and deadly.
During the summer of 1955, this is where hundreds of thousands of Mexicans were “dumped” after being discovered as migrants who crossed the U.S.-Mexico border illegally. Unloaded from buses and trucks carrying several times their capacity, the deportees stumbled into the Mexicali streets with few possessions and no way of getting home.
This was strategic: the more obscure the destination within the Mexican interior, the less opportunities they would have to return to America. But the tactic also proved to be dangerous, as the migrants were left without resources to survive.
After one such round-up and transfer in July, 88 people died from heat stroke.
At another drop-off point in Nuevo Laredo, the migrants were “brought like cows” into the desert...

And then they steal scrap metal off the Yuma Range and sell it to a scrap yard in tucson only to find out too late it was UXO....
COMMON PRACTICE by illegals ,,,,,, used to run em off the ranges all the time when my EOD team was conducting surface and subsurface clearances for UXO on the bombing ranges....
TUCSON, Ariz. — U.S. Sen. John McCain wants the Department of Defense to explain how a 500-pound military bomb wound up in a scrap yard, where it partially exploded and killed an employee trying to cut into it.
Daniel Wright, 46, died in the explosion Wednesday afternoon at the Tucson Iron and Metal yard, which handles recycling materials, Tucson police said.
The ordinance was an MK-82 general purpose bomb, according to police, who said Thursday that detectives still were investigating how it ended up at the scrap yard.
McCain, R-Ariz., said he is “extremely concerned about the tragic death” of the scrap yard worker who was killed as he tried to dismantle and dispose of the bomb.
In a letter sent Thursday to Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter, McCain said it was “imperative for the Department of Defense to explain how this unexploded ordnance made its way into a civilian place of business.
“As a matter of national security, as well for the safety of the American public, this issue demands appropriate attention by the department’s senior leadership,” McCain wrote.
The MK-82 bomb, used by the Air Force and Navy, is about 5 feet long.
The bomb squad at nearby Davis-Monthan Air Force Base was called in to help with the investigation.
Base officials said Davis-Monthan doesn’t take any ordnance to scrap yards.
“Ordnances are not metal to be reused for recycling,” said 1st Lt. Erin Ranaweera, a base spokeswoman.

Deport.
They go through hell to get here to get free stuff, it’ll be similar going home. I don’t care. Deport.
I do not care. It still was much nicer than what mexico does to its illegals from central america.
“By September, 80,000 had been taken into custody in Texas, and an estimated 500,000 to 700,000 illegals had left the Lone Star State voluntarily.”
Deport a little over 10%, the rest will leave voluntarily?
So Mexican citizens were brought not to a desert but to Mexican cities and the Mexican government did not provide the resources that their citizens needed. Did I get it right?
The media is global Marxist in ideology. They would rather be called socialists or liberals. America/Americans have always been in the way of the Left’s global Utopia so they hate us.
As they gear up for world government and if we elect a man like Trump who sees America as a Nation with territory and it’s own people and it’s own interests; independent of “the globe”, don’t put it past the global Marxists to use Russia, China, Iran, and/or North Korea break our backs into submission with some nukes.
Obama will bring in some Isis fighters in the hope of cowering us, but American-Americans will crush them and get “meaner” about our globalist, multicultural overlords. As Trump says, everything is not always nice. We are losing our shirts (and our Nation) by being nice and politically correct (stupid) as globalists dictate.
“Trump could put them on nice jumbo jets for free flights to Mexico’s capital city. AC all the way.”
And drop them off from 30,000 feet if the corrupt Mexican government refuses landing rights.

Yup.
Unless Obama and his radical community organizers have instigated them to create civil war, a possibility since many of them are armed via the drug cartels.( Remember Fast and Furious.)
Used to be a lot of that sort of thing in Korea back when we ran the ranges there. Then they let the Korean Tiger Division guys practice laying booby traps in the impact areas, and after a few casualties the word got around. And that was the end of that problem.
Still have small brass buddhas that on the bottom you can see the rim with LC 7.62 on it..... never ever had to pick up brass on the firing range. I remember they would sell ya a soda down town in thailand an fill a baggie with ice, pour in the soda, tie or thai a knot in the baggie ....then poke a straw thru the baggie an drink the cold drink from the baggie.

Bhat Bus was where the action was.....bought a used but functional Browning high power P35 and a Swedish K with mags and ball ammo..... :o)
Any form of deportation would be humane for Americans in view of the black tar heroin and other drugs that wave after wave of illegal aliens from Mexico are bringing into the US. The Xalisco Boys are just one source and have brought misery from West to East coast, their mission to sell only to whites.
The article shows only the side of the naysayers.
Fact is Operation Wetback worked like a charm. Initially there was a big media blitz about large numbers of deployed agents that would round up Illegals, which cause over half to self deport.
It worked then, it worked in AZ after SB1070, and it’ll work again.
