Snicker. Am I the only person who thinks "Dog" is a clown?

I wouldn't know. I've never watched the show, so I don't have an emotional investment in him.

That having been said, you can't go to another country, break its laws and expect to get off scot free. We would are outraged when Mexico fails to hand over their criminals to us, we can hardly refuse to do it ourselves.

Read joebuck's post. Read it two or three times. He knows what he's talking about. The Mexican "justice" system amounts to a nation-wide street gang. No kidding.

Unless you come to America, without permission and begin working under the table without paying taxes, driving without a license or insurance and know how to pick fruit really well and only speak spanish.

Then you're welcomed, given college tuition breaks, free healthcare and freedom from paying income taxes.

Screw Mexico, they encourage and aid in the breaking of American laws on a daily basis.

I'm only vaguely familiar with the situation and I am by no means a legal mind, but didn't he cuff some rapist or really horrible person.

I agree laws are laws, but it seems to me that justice should serve the law, not the other way around. We have all these plea bargains and nonsense that go on in this country, which seems to benefit criminals. Such legal gyrations they serves the law, nor do they serve justice.

Attorneys talk, deals are made, cash changes hands, very bad people walk. Why can't we work this situation to the benefit of someone who otherwise seems to be doing the right thing??

I'm confused. Isn't that exactly what all those illegals expect when they come here? Oh! It's only when Americans do it that it is not allowed! I get it now.

Not aimed at you highball. I'm just disgusted with our system of handling illegals and the double standard involved.
