"Almost 200 Brazilians have been caught since March, he said. In all, close to 20,000 Brazilians have been arrested nationwide — 12,000 of them in the Valley — since the new fiscal year began in October."

Go to Canada. They don't mind being taken advantage of there.

"Vacationing" from those Socialist Workers' Paradises in Brazil (and now Uruguay), no doubt.

Sneaky Brazilians Ping!

Please let me know if you want on or off this South Texas/Mexico ping list.

When they mean close the gap. Does that mean they(Mexico) want to close the gap by sending more of their illegal immigrants?

[skeeter]

The Mexicans view the US as their own private sandbox, I guess.

[Joe Brower]

Here's a wild idea. How about

"Mexico looks to close gap on MEXICANS sneaking into United States"

one of 45 countries not required to present a passport to enter Mexico

Persons of any of 45 countries don't need a passport to enter Mexico, and from there they can sneak across the US border. Convenient.

What are the 44 other countries besides Brazil?

[mouser]

Brazil is one of 45 countries not required to present a passport to enter Mexico,


This is the line which jumps out at me. Who are the rest. And how many other countries are using this as an open door.

[subterfuge]

Anybody know what Mexico does to Guatemalans when they sneak into Mexico illegally?

[Calpernia]

>>>>Brazil is one of 45 countries not required to present a passport to enter Mexico

WHAT are the other 44 countries????

[Leatherneck_MT]

Yep, we can't have the illegals from Brazil competing with the illegals from Mexico for jobs now can we :P

[Reaganwuzthebest]

Approximately 86 percent actually appears in court, according to Monitor archives.

Are we supposed to believe this figure, I don't. Danbury, CT alone has an estimated 15,000 illegals, many of them from Brazil. If they were showing up for court hearings they'd be getting deported or legalized.

". . .the news could mean a possible decrease in the number of Brazilians crossing the border into the United States illegally."

How about that? The wetbacks have wetbacks.

[CATravelAgent]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but - isn't Brazil the South American center for Islamic terrorists? This would explain why the US requested Mexico to re-instate visa requirements. It also indicates the US government knows how vulnerable the southern border is, and that they are also aware terrorists being able to enter the US from Mexico.

[NRA2BFree]

Hours later, agents found another group of nine immigrants — all of whom had passports.

What I want to know is how and where they got the passports!

[television is just wrong]

We are non discriminatory deporters, DEPORT them ALL.
