Ditto!
If this story is accurate, then Carona has chosen a very poor time to be outraged. He very recently painted himself as anti-illegal alien and is running again for OC Sheriff. Orange County is very conservative and very anti-illegal alien.
Carona is putting his chances for reelection in jeopardy.
Apparently whatever felony an illegal alien commits.
Thanks for the links.
Interestingly enough, even Hillary kind of "gets it" where Mexico's nearly
omnipotent oligarchs are concerned:
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ideas_opinions/story/411104p-347791c.html
"[Mrs. Clinton] said she favors a "carrot-and-stick" approach with Mexico to
provide that government and its "oligarchs" the incentives to give Mexicans
more and better jobs in their own country."
Frankly, the more pressure we keep on Mexico, immigration-wise, the more
reformers inside of Mexico can be emboldened and empowered to scale back
monopolists' abuses down there which keep our own country flooded with
economic refugees. Here's an interesting thread on new legal reform progress
that finally
emerged in Mexico I think as a result of immigration reform's failure:

We can make a difference for our sake, and their's as well, by cracking down
and demanding more activism by our own United States Trade Representative
against protectionist Mexican oligarchs in, for example, the monopolistic
petroleum, telecommunications, electricity and television media sectors.
Isn't prodding our neighbor to finally clean up its own backyard before
lambasting us for ours the neighborly thing to do?
