I don't see their deaths as "punishment". I see them a tragedy that shouldn't happen and don't need to happen. If they were being shot or thrown in jail for life then I would totally agree with you that the punishment doesn't fit the crime. Let me be perfectly clear that I don't advocate trying to kill them. I am in favor of deportation though. I think the most humanitarian thing to do would be to seal the border and put pressure on the corrupt Mexican government to change their ways. Nevertheless, the bottom line is that these folks who want a better life need to come in legally.
