“Has been done in Afghanistan more than once.”
Perhaps if Afghanistan were on OUR border with 230 cities being controlled by their henchemen like the Mexican cartels, maybe someone will pay attention.
Facts: More beheadings in Mexico than anywhere. More murders of journalists than anywhere. Armed Mexican cartels growing plantations of dope on OUR public lands. More Americans killed every year by Mexicans than any middle east jihad group. Half a million Mexicans coming to the USA unheeded every year. Half the federal prosecutions are for immigration violations, mostly Mexican. And WE are going to give them all, including cartel members, AMNESTY.

Critica (Hermosillo, Sonora) 1/6/10
Mexican public opinion down in the dumps
A national public opinion poll in Mexico recapped its findings by stating that, from 2009 to 2010, Mexicans express a highly deteriorated spirit and consider these to be bad times. Their expectations are low and their self appraisals are negative. Of those polled, 87% feel that the economy is in worse condition than a year ago. When asked what kind of country they wished for, the top two replies were: to leave the economic crisis behind and to have a diminished insecurity.

Norte (Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua) 1/6/10
Mexico, a migrant nation [Portion of an op/col. by Manuel Espino, titled as shown]
The Mexican social reality is defined by the migrants; Mexican migrants who search for better living conditions without leaving the national territory, mainly in the center and north of the country. Migrants who slowly and peacefully explore the United States, carrying within their hearts, Mexico, its customs and its traditions, without ever severing their roots.
Migration: a weapon against the crisis. This past December 12th thousands of fellow countrymen arrived at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, in New York, to say prayers asking that United States authorities may approve a migratory reform. A North American legislator of the Democratic Party, Luis Gutierrez, announced the introduction of a proposal of law for migratory reform. With great hope and vision, Joel Magallan, leader of a migrants’ organization, pointed out that “immigrants can be a key factor for economic reactivation when the economic situation is resolved. Once legalized, they could start new businesses, and consumer buying and investment in the economy would increase.” Correct words, no doubt.
An uncertain future: unfortunately, it appears that the migrants’ situation will worsen next year. Experience allows us to foresee that xenophobic, uninformed or politically interested visions could stop the consolidation of a migratory reform in the United States, precisely taking advantage of the fears caused by the crisis.
Without failing to acknowledge that every sovereign State has the duty and the legitimate and unquestionable right of controlling passage across its borders, it is possible to maintain that carrying out its prerogatives in a humanistic manner can contribute to a more fruitful and safe migration. Let us hope that Mexicans, such as the ones who spoke last December 12, far to the north of our country, may count with more political backing and more solidarity from our officials. Every migrant has a valiant and hopeful heart, which lets him face hard challenges while searching for dignity and opportunities. It’s for basic justice to them, who have sacrificed so much, and who have given so much to our nation, that we must grant this acknowledgement and this support which they so deserve in their struggles.
