MEXICO CITY Mexico's National Human Rights Commission says more than 5,000 Mexican migrants have died in deserts, rivers and mountains trying to reach the U.S. since 1994.
The commission says governments must do more to protect migrants from robbers, smugglers and others who seek to exploit them.

Mexico, care for your own people, provide a better life for them and they won’t need to flee the country and break into mine!
Mexico’s National Human Rights Commission might instead study the internal conditions which cause its people to flee by the tens of millions. Remedy that, problem solved.
Note to self: Stay in Mexico.
How many of them had a visa?
Sorry Iron, but it’s not a start. It’s a tragedy. Dying from dehydration, smugglers and animals is not something I wish on another human being.
I acknowledge that they knew the risks. But, I’d also add that they have good reason to feel that, once over the border, they can find work and have a better life for themselves and their kids. Not all of them are gang bangers and druggies. In my opinion, it’s probably some of the most vunerable who become victms of their less scrupulous Mexican bretheren.
That feeling of safety and security comes directly from the idiots in congress that propose dumb-assed ideas like the recent general amnesty legislation. It comes from Janet Napolitano spendig more time trying to bust Joe Arpaio of Arizona, instead of securing the border. In a way, it’s no different than luring children across a mine field with rewards of paradise on the other side.
No. I reject that 5,000 deaths is a good start for anything. It’s blood, and it’s on the hands of those that push their supposed “good intentions” on the rest of us. Instead of encouraging harmony with our southern nieghbor they incite a response such as your own. Ultimatley, they (Primarily Democrats) are responsible for negligent homicide and the loss of these 5000 souls belong to ther misguided intentions.
I apologize in advance if I misunderstood your comment.
So? We didn’t do it to them? They were committing a felony. Hey non-citizens...that thing you crossed was a border...a boundary. Stay in your loser countries and try to make them better. Don’t come here and make ours worse. We only want you here if you come through legal channels and if you blends into our culture. Keep your lousy, retrograde attitudes to your crummy countries. Respect our laws, our culture and our values. If your country is so good, stay there.

Ya puts your money down and ya takes your chances.
A condition for which is 100% preventable.
MEXCIO should do something about it.
And this is my problem because...?
Well NO! It’s not your fault...but I can see Al Gore’s been over there talking to them also.
Evidently he can talk a pig into being chitlins...so mexicans believe they need to cross that desert without water....that’s why so many die out there.

Hey Doctor, my citizens keep dying when they do that?
Doctor: Well, don’t do that!
You've got to be kidding. The GOP, under Bush, was pushing for the same thing as the dems. Bush was delighted to hear spanish spoken in the streets of the U.S. it was that important to him.
“Tens of thousands of Americans have been killed and injured by illegal aliens. 5,000 is nothing compared to those numbers. And it is worth remembering that 400,000 anchor babies are born annually to illegal alien”
Absolutely. And those anchor babies are working for the Drug cartels killing us off by the day. If we had real enforcement, none of the Mexicans would have died.
From the US border patrol:
What makes up an army? An army is made of men between the age of 15 and 35.
What comes across our border by the millions each year? Men between the ages of 15 and 35.
Afghan drug lords are now teamed with Mexican drug cartels to flood our cities with heroin. In Mexico, this Muslim Connnection to the drug cartels has brought beheadings to the streets of border towns. Many Mexican cities are now surrounded by Mexican Army troops and tanks — all to quel the violence. The city of Tijuana had its entire 3,000 man police force disarmed and replaced with Mexican Federal Troops.
What we have below are two images. One is of an enemy we fought tooth and claw for seventy years nearly bankrupting our country. The other we today invite across our border with welfare, free medical care, and more. The centers of many American cities are now controlled by MS-13 and others of the most violent gangs in America’s entire history. These gangs want to kill police and federal agents to rise in reputation among their own kind. Our prisons are now filled with a violent criminal class never seen before anywhere on earth.
In all of the 70 years of the Soviet Union — including the years of the proxy war of Vietnam.— they killed fewer Americans in total than Mexican Illegal Aliens do inside this country in a single year

Hey...I already said Democrats. Thought I’d covered it.
WINNER!!!!
WINNER!!!!
Their country doesn’t care if they live or die at home or trying to get out.
But ask anyone of them that made it out alive and has lived off this good graces of the US for any number of years what country holds their allegiance.
You can bet the farm it ain’t the United States.
