And it's OUR fault that they have high-tech weaponry.

Imagine the absurdity of Mexico asking us to help them on a border related matter? If we were to help Mexico the way it helps us, we'd be printing the best way to sneak advanced weapons into Mexico. BTW, I think Mexico should provide water stations in the desert so gun smugglers don't get ill.

Even with the presence of Mexican Federal Troops in the city, they still cannot bring calm to Nuevo Laredo, Mexico.
Imagine if President Bush had to deploy the U.S. military to squash widespread insurrection in areas as large as an entire state!
(Now the Mexican gubmint is blaming the United States of exporting terror to Mexico . .)
===================================
Mexico is asking the U.S. to strengthen efforts to halt arms trafficking along the Mexican border, a spokesman for Mexican President Vicente Fox said Monday.Mexican federal police and soldiers arrived in two border states this month to help control a surge in violence linked to drug trafficking groups.

Leadership or more precisely the lack thereof...

"Mexican organized crime groups have access to high-tech weaponry that could only come from the United States" ... and we have low tech illegals who could only come from Mexico. Let's make a deal..

Hands across the border.
President Bush is slowly backing himself into a corner with his stance on the border situation.
Already civilians are taking matters into their own hands.
Unless our federal government acts and acts quickly I see things deteriorating into shear chaos along the Southern Frontier.
Once civilian groups become heavily involved there will be no turning back.
I hear people, mostly liberals and do-gooders saying that the military can not come on the border.
Well, how do these same people explain the thousands of troops placed down here nearly a hundred years ago to chase bandits such as Pancho Villa.
It's time to shut down these drug dictators and that time is now.

What's the problem? They were weapons Americans probably didn't want. < /sarcasm >
Oh, man. It just never ends. And of course El Presidente Bush will hop to and help his amigo Vicente Fox without even considering raising the "sensitive" issue of "undocumented workers." Because Mexico is our friend, dontcha know?
I'm sick of it. Mexico can go @#$% itself for all I care, just as long as they stay down wind. I find I am quite averse to the stench of corruption.

Shut down the border, station our troops there. Build bases, keep them down there. Since most of our future action will be in desert climates, better that our troops get the experience chasing folks through canyons and hot weather.
Enough is enough.

You're too late - the president may have well procrastinated too long - taken too much time . .
The chaos is now completely out of control in Mexico and that is one of the main reasons we are undergoing an illegal alien invasion here in the United States - widespread terror reigns in Mexico.
In other words - we are importing our own self-destruction.
======================================
Even the Mexicans themselves are in open panic . .
Thousands of citizens have come face to face with crime, a growing reality in Mexico. Carjacking, robberies, kidnappings and worse are all too familiar occurrences shared by most families and friends. Victims personal experiences are flippantly revealed as war stories, in what Mexicans see as a perpetual battle between their right to expect a good and safe way of life, and reality.
A conflict they are constantly reminded of by an unremitting media stream of crime reports, and ceaseless revelations of corruption.
* * *Mexicos crackdown on crime is it too late?

You make an excellent point for the Mexicans! Ask for asylum based on political upheaval!

Bush was all too happy to have Mexico implode rather than force Fox to get his house in order. Now we all pay.
That's leadership?

Why ask for asylum when you have a-m-n-e-s-t-y?

Look, IT'S NOT AMNESTY and you know it.
It's work program that lasts 6 years and then gets extended for another six and another six and another six and another six unto the fourth and fifth generations of them that love Mexico and refuse to assimilate.

A-m-n-e-s-t-y was Reagan's dwwd, and Bush wants to play the same game. Why wait for A-m-n-e-s-t-y when they can ask for A-s-y-l-u-m NOW!

This border situation is out of control. Even Mexico is asking USA to step up border security.
