First came the anxious calls in the days after the election of President Trump. Now, people begin lining up before 8 a.m. and crowd the waiting rooms inside the Mexican Consulate here.

Mexican citizens come to renew passports that have been unused for more than a decade. They desperately ask lawyers if they can do anything to help them stay in the United States. They register their children for Mexican citizenship, just in case they are sent back and decide to move their whole family with them.

Rich Mexicans and their thug cohorts don’t want to take care of their own people.
Instead, they have been partying on OUR money.
The party is now over.
Period.
The crooked Mexican politicians and gangs can STFU.

Mexican Consulates Flooded With Fearful Immigrants

If they're legal (citizen or legal resident) and afraid, they're being stupid. If illegal, they SHOULD live in fear of having their free ride curtailed. It's not even punishment that's being threatened, just a forcible stop to the crime. So in either case, no sympathy. Next case!

Was a great gig as long as they had it. Outsource your country’s poverty? Works great, as long as you can find another country dumb enough to take
Them.

But yeah. Party’s over, amigos.

THAT is the truth.

As Ed Abbey once said, "hand them a gun at the border, turn them around, they'll know what to do when they get back"

He got called a Nazi for saying that of course.

But the old queer was right.

Mexico should be happy we haven’t decided to throw our trash over the fence into their yard.

Trump needs to channel a little Ronald Reagan

“My fellow Americans, I’m pleased to tell you today that I’ve signed legislation that will outlaw Mexican consulates forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.”

IT IS WONDERFUL KNOWING THAT ILLEGAL ALIENS ARE LIVING IN ABJECT TERROR THAT THEIR LAW BREAKING FREE RIDE IS SWIFTLY COMING TO AN END.

THE REALIZATION THAT THE ICE DEPORTATION "SWORD OF DAMACLEASE" IS HANGING OVER ALL OF THEIR HEADS AND THAT IT COULD LITERALLY FALL UPON THEM AT ANY TIME DAY OR NIGHT, WITHOUT WARNING MUST BE KEEPING THEM IN A CONSTANT STATE OF PERPETUAL PANIC!

Over time this overwhelming sense of impending dread will lead many of them to massive self deportation.

I can't wait for President Trump to "make some examples" by cracking down hard on employers of ILLEGAL ALIENS. Make a number of high profile arrests and prosecute these law breaking employers to the full extent of the law: Heavily fine them and sentence those found guilty to lengthy prison sentences and the rest will quickly fall into line and fire the ILLEGAL ALIENS they have employed. The ILLEGAL ALIENS will quickly "get the message" and self deport before ICE rounds them up.

The Mexican government is “pimping” out their people. They encourage them to flood our country with illegal....mostly cash workers so they can send most of those American dollars back to Mexico.
