Doncha just love unsolicited Mexican government opinion?

[Froufrou]

I've been waiting to see this. Mexico can just take a chill pill. Look at how many people this maniac killed. Oh, I forgot - he recanted in the end and admitted he'd let the devil run his life. He knew he had a choice and was therefore not a loony as he tried to pretend...

[Bikers4Bush]

And the families of his victims expressed regret that it took so long.

Go to hell Mexico.

[weegee]

Mexico loves their serial killers (who cross the border NUMEROUS times) but doesn't want to keep tabs on their visiting citizens.

[Enchante]

I would have been happy to give this guy back to the Mexican government -- so long as he was dropped from 20,000 feet over Mexico City without a parachute!

[ConservativeDude]

The Mexican government, in commenting on the execution, noted its own "absolute opposition to the death penalty.""

The Texas government, in commenting on the execution, noted its own "absolute opposition to the brutal murder of its citizens by trash".

[after dark]

Mexico does execute its worst criminals it suicides them.

This distinction gives Mexico the right to look down its nose at us.

[Perdogg]

They waited after he was executed to complain.

A few years ago there was a suspected murder from California in jail in Canada. The US wanted him, the Canadians balked. The US said fine, go ahead and keep him. When he gets out he will be roaming Canadian streets. The SC of Canada said to the US, Please take him.

If Mexico ever complains again, the US or Texas should say okay, we will deport him to Mexico City under darkness. See how they would like that.

Tell ya what Meh-hee-co; send some representatives (legally) and they're welcome to take the carcass back with them.

[BJClinton]

Dear Mexico,

Keep your psychotic murderers on your side of the Rio Grande and we'll stop executing them.

Sincerely,
Texas

...said in a communique

Read in article recently on ways in which the press has adopted the language of communism without most of us paying attention.

The word "comunique" is straight out of the old Soviet play book. FWIW.

[JMK]

"despite medical evidence about the severe mental disturbances he suffered..."

Guess what Mexico? He's cured!

[Dustbunny]

Mexico decries execution in Texas

Then Mexico should stop them from crossing the border.

[martinidon]

I don't remember a press release from Mexico expressing regret that their dirt bag brutally murdered American citizens....

[Doohickey]

"despite medical evidence about the severe mental disturbances he suffered,"

Relax. He's cured now.

[Pox]

"Lawmakers here officially abolished capital punishment in June 2005, more than 40 years after the country's last execution.

And there lies part of the primary reason Mexico has gangs running around shooting up the locals with impunity in places such as Nuevo Laredo and the police force in that city basically no longer is able to "protect the people". They cannot even protect themselves.

There are many needed fixes for Mexico, IMO, and this one change would certainly be a step in the right direction. However, the country is far too corrupt to see this happen, at least not likely in my lifetime.

[Tammy8]

I have a solution for Mexico, keep your citizens home and they won't be in any danger of being executed in the US.

[Rakkasan1]

15 murders? wow, that's a lot of mistrials of justice finding poor Mr.Resendiz guilty all those times.

[Frank_Discussion]

They can cry me a Rio Grande. The TDC fast-tracked this guy because he was a serious waste of breathing air.

[reagan_fanatic]

If it pisses off the Mexicans I'm all for it.

[Proverbs 3-5]

Maybe we could let Mexico have one of our whackos to execute, then we'd be even...?
