Deported Mexicans face shattered lives
Associated press via MSNBC ^ | Sun., Aug. 24, 2008 | The Associated Press

TIJUANA, Mexico - The towering black gate opens silently to an alley with walls of corrugated metal. Scrawled in large white letters on one wall is: "The End."

For those deported from the United States, the words are an unnecessary reminder. Nearly every hour of the day, guards unlock this gate that leads back into Mexico, clicking open the padlocks hung on each side, in each nation.

Mexico is a Socialist hell hole. And the Dems want them to export their hell to the USA.

And that is while it is under control of the "conservative" party there. Mexico's government was almost taken over the last election by their communist party, which had staged an "Al Gore Style" scandal in order to discredit the election of the current government. They were eventually defeated, but it was a close thing.

The Mexican Communists would likely forcibly march their poverty-class right over our border all at once. They know the rats would create some reason to consider it a humanitarian event and permit it.

We should? Does the world give a rat's rear end how Americans live? We should be taking care of our own people and let other countries handle theirs. That's the right thing to do!

Our bipartisan Open Borders establishment would love to do just that - given the chance. That's the reason I can't vote for McCain and why I just think little of the stupid GOP voters who think securing our borders isn't our country's highest priority! Well, we can either keep it or lose it!

American citizens who get sick in Mexico do not get even emergency health care without CASH.

American citizens held on any charges in Mexico have to bribe their way out, or starve in a hell-hole.

Send the freeloaders BACK. Yesterday.

Shattered lives of Mexicans? Boo fricking hoo.

What about the SHATTERED LIVES of all the people up here in El Norte who have been mowed down by irresponsible, drunk Mexican drivers who just can't be bothered with driver education, licenses, insurance, and car registration? Most of which Mexican @$$holes who aren't even ARRESTED, but rather turned loose to kill again.

Not to mention the SHATTERED LIVES of the families of the dead victims.

As someone else said above, cry me a rio.

So let me get this straight, they leave a hellhole to enter another country illegally. They illegally live the life of kings, comparably, just as criminals do. When their crime is discovered and they are punished, they are merely sent back to their former, legal lives, which is being treated far better than other criminals who are discovered and sent to prison.

And we’re supposed to feel guilty about this why?

We don't want anyone facing shattered lives, even at their own doing. So, let's build the fence so they can't get in to begin with. It's the humane thing to do. lol.

I was surprised at the amount of admitted dems and libs that were just as disgusted with the illegals.

Love the way they used "deported Mexicans" instead of putting "deported illegal Mexicans"!

This says that our government is finally listening to it's US citizens instead of the illegal immigrants! 'Bout time!!!

The faces of those who stream through reflect how tough and far-reaching the U.S. crackdown on illegal immigration has become.

Among them are young people. There were more than 18,000 repatriations of children under 18 to Mexico this year, and in more than 10,000 cases they were alone, according to the Mexican government.(oh the Mexican govt says, huh?)

There are also criminals. The U.S. does not break down figures by country, but it has deported about 55,000 prisoners so far this year. One man walked through the gate in slippers with 80 cents in his pocket, after being picked up by police during a violent fight with his wife in their backyard.

And there are women, with more than 40,000 repatriations since January — about 13 percent of all cases, according to the Mexican government(here we go again - according to Mexican govt). Sometimes the women are dropped off alone, at night. The U.S. Border Patrol in Washington says the safe repatriation of women is a major concern, but acknowledges there is no overall policy along the 2,000-mile border.

Mexico must now deal with a population that it has long ignored. (LOVE THIS LAST PART)

Why do we have to be a boardinghouse for Mexico?

...no no, not just a boardinghouse. Mexico's biggest money maker is oil, next in line is the AMERICAN DOLLAR that is shipped back to bolster their economy. Our government through liberal way of thinking, sees nothing wrong with it. There was a time when it was illegal to do what millions are doing......

As fellow human beings, I feel for them.

But this is Mexico's doing.

They persistently fail the people, preferring to skim off the nationalized profits and send them to Swiss Bank accounts.

After the Mexican populace has a necktie party for their governing oppressors, then things will change.
