Why so few in NM?
Wondered the same thing; why so few in NM?
Mostly because our wages are very low compared to other states they can easily get to, so most of the illegals just pass through here going elsewhere.
Another little known fact is how many citizen Hispanics here don’t treat illegals well. Many of our Hispanics are actually Spanish descent and feel no ties to Mexico. The ones that do still look down on illegals. That is why Richardson will declare the border a disaster and call in National Guard while at the same time be promoting amnesty and taking sides with Mexican governors against Arizona. Richardson has to walk a fine line between those that support Mexico and those that don’t. He is really quite good at it and I can’t wait until he is gone...thankfully we don’t have long to wait now to be rid of his sorry...well you know what I mean. I just hope this state is not ignorant enough to elect Dinish- she will carry on Richardsons fence straddling on the border.
