The Mexican government is opening a satellite consular office on Catalina Island -- a small resort off the California coast with a history of drug smuggling and human trafficking -- to provide the island's illegal Mexican immigrants with identification cards, The Washington Examiner has learned.

Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a Republican whose district includes Catalina Island, said handing out matricular cards will exacerbate an already dangerous situation.

"Handing out matricular cards to Mexicans who are not in this country legally is wrong no matter where it's done," he said. "But on Catalina it will do more damage. It's a small island but there's evidence it's being used as a portal for illegals to access mainland California."

Rohrabacher added, "If there were a large number of Americans illegally in Mexico and the U.S. consulate was making it easier

Besides allowing these creeps to use ridiculously opulent real estate, this is an unassailable forward communications post, similar to CENTCOM in the Persian Gulf. Americans just don't get who the soldiers are.

I think the Mexican consulate should be located closer to the Mexican citizens they serve, don't you? May I suggest Lynwood, or how about Watts? I hear they've got a nice hospital there.

Hell they could squeeze in all kinds of drugs too.

Sure. Those illegals have to have some way to make a living until they can get on welfare.
