It probably is only for show --- just like Vicente Fox promised to do something about the violent drug cartels and hasn't done a thing except a little here and there for show, they're just as powerful and violent as ever and more drugs than ever come over from Mexico.
Any bets on how low his bail will be? He's probably already out as I type this.
Mexico has tightened security on the border since the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks in the United States.
IMO Just temporarily in order to raise the price of corruption....
I'm not aware that workmen's comp is exempt if you hire family members. Payroll is Payroll. Workmen's comp is based on gross payroll. This could be an item for the State AG and ARNOLD to look into.
Wrong, you don't need to cover immediate family members with Workers Comp. How do you think all these foreigners stay in business? Most only hire their own.
When you see an entire family running a business, bet the rent, Dad IS NOT paying workers comp for those family members. Trust me.
President George W. Bush - "Islam is a religion of peace". You raised, I'll call.
Well, we sure have waited long enough Bump!
Our southern border is a joke. Nothing will tighten it up until bombs go off in El Paso, Dallas, Houston, etc.
I don't think Mexico has even tightened security at all --- it's just being made to look like it has so we can feel safe in having our borders wide open --- we can believe ole Vicente is taking care of everything for us. For one the crime rate in Mexico is exploding out of control, thousands of people have been kidnapped for ransom and the drug lords continue to hold a strong grip on everything. If Fox's government was at all competent, they would do something about the kidnapping on it's own citizens --- his fellow wealthy in most cases.
LOL...I'm out!
(Was this Texas Hold-em or Mexican Sweat?)
I swear, Houston and Dallas could disappear tomorrow, and I still don't thing those in charge would do anything.
No, they've finally heard us complaining. That, and somebody proved to them that terrorists are coming across the border...i.e., the Pakistani woman with the S/A passport in MacAllen, Tx.
I also believe the I-10 shoot-out may have been an eye-opener for many.
Here's a thought. You can't call it immigration if they're being smuggled across the border.
Nowhere nearly as seriously as "they" should from all that I can see.
it would be in mexico's interest to stop all moslems from entering the united states, if only to protect their emigrants to the states.
