No, what is appalling is the Mexican people would rather slink into our country and suck our social systems dry than stay in their own country and fight your so called "evil and corrupt" government.

This toddler did not "slink" into Texas. The family was visiting from Mexico City. Believe it or not, US customs checks foreign nationals when they arrive at airports. You may choose to believe that the new Mexican regime is "conservative" and friendly. I know that they are wealthy thugs, hiding behind a facade of machismo.

By ignoring or accepting illegal immigration into this country, we have compromised our own rules, regulations and laws. You would have us turn a blind eye when the entire population of Mexico runs across the border fleeing disease and lawlessness? Fat chance.

I do not accept or ignore illegal immigration. This child was not an illegal immigrant. Even if the parents were here illegally; Texas hospitals will not deny medical care. Federal law drives this. Just like any US citizen is not denied medical care in countries that we have agreements and treaties with.

People like you use a broad brush to paint those of us against ILLEGAL immigrants as RACISTS. People like you have an agenda. Wonder what that is?

People like you that believe there is no such thing as temporary work authorization, NAFTA visas, CAFTA visas, tourist visas, and other legal immigration options keep harping the same tired meme. My "agenda" as a lifelong Texan is simple. Respect life. Respect people as human beings. Love freedom. Fight statism in its many forms.

I have traveled to Mexico many times. Been to Europe and Eastern Europe. I have to admit that the statists in those countries do not even pretend any degree of conservatism.

For what it is worth, KRLD 1080 radio in Dallas is reporting the family of the Mexican child that died had brought him to the US for medical treatment.
