Mrs. Krentz, they never will as long as the US Government is loaded with the likes of John McCain and insists the US taxpayer does it instead!
McCain proposed legislation a few years ago to give Mexicans in MEXICO USA paid healthcare.
February 09, 2008 Bill to improve health care…in Mexico! McCain strikes again!
What would Americans think, then, of a member of Congress who introduced legislation, not to improve health care in the United States, but to improve health care in Mexico?
Insane? Drunk? Unworthy of public office?
What would Americans think, then, of a bill introduced in Congress that required federal agencies to come up with a plan, not to expand health coverage in the United States, but to expand health coverage in Mexico?
Impossible? Unthinkable? Wildly irresponsible?
What would Americans think, then, of the motives of a senator, who not only introduced a bill to improve Mexico’s health care system and extend coverage to a growing population of 120 million people, but gave health insurance companies the right to help devise the plan?
Blatantly corrupt? Grossly indifferent to the well-being of the American people? Downright treasonous?
Unbelievable as it may seem, the Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act of 2005 contained a provision giving insurance companies the right to help devise a plan for extending US health care to Mexico (Sec. 1004. BINATIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE AND HEALTH INSURANCE).
Even more unbelievable, the senator who sponsored the bill is not on the verge of being thrown out of office for this odious piece of legislation. No, the senator who introduced the bill, Senator John McCain of Arizona, is on the verge of locking up the Republican nomination to be our next president

Some of the people she helped would kill her for a sandwich. They don’t want help, they want to be taken care of. Forever. Or else.
Shame on the clergy at St. Luke's who push such garbage in the one place who should know just how rotten of garbage it is.
We need to deport or imprison ALL illegal aliens, including their anchor babies, seal/secure the border with a fence and armed troops, and have an armed response to everyone who tries to re-enter illegally.
Some of the invaders would just kill her because they want to erase her and the rest of older America from history.
Krentz acted in a humanitarian manner and was slaughtered for his kindness. Buy a back hoe, learn how to use it and make numerous temporary trenches. Keep weapon close at hand.
Probably should have called border patrol first, If they gave water and or aid, and the illegals left on their merry way before they called border patrol, then all they did was help encourage others to follow. jmo
Excellent article. She sounds like a good person, struggling with watching people suffer and at the same time having a basic sense of right and wrong.
The bias of the writer does show in sentences like “not addressing the flow of “illegals,” as she calls the people who come to the United States without documents.”
But it is balanced.
“Krentz acted in a humanitarian manner and was slaughtered for his kindness”
Even one case like this would be reason enough to take the border problems serious. There are many other reasons out there, too numerous to address here.
And still the President and Congress too, ignore their oaths of office.
Today, we have a government in Washington, D. C. that has come off the tracks. It doesn’t even pretend to honor the U. S. Constitution any longer.
The American public has grounds for removal. A lot of federal judges have gone far outside their guidelines as well.
The only question is, what spark is going to set this powder keg off?
The feds know this, and that’s why they have militarized the police and seek to bring a division of the U. S. Army to our own soil, to keep the citizens in line.
Never in our nation’s history, has the pure hatred by the U. S. Government office holders, revealed so much contempt for the American public.
On the one hand you have this nation being over-run by design, our citizens being slaughtered, women and children raped, homes invaded, good taken at gunpoint...
On the other hand, you have the federal government attacking Christian rights, and supporting access of Sharia Law to the U. S.
Some have written of a second revolution. I have seldom read about a revolution conducted against the people from those who hold power in Washington, D. C.
It is almost complete ladies and gentlemen.
What incident will set off the powder-keg? What forces will be brought to bare to utterly annihilate those who love this nation too much to see this continue, without correction?
We have so long ago passed the point where our Founding Fathers stood up and said, “We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it any longer.”
But for a spark, so goes the nation.
And I didn’t shed a tear when that drunk-driving illegal alien killed that nun.
HER CHURCH advocated for people like her killer, against US law and the wishes of US citizens.
Sue Krentz is a Liberal. Emotions do not alter the facts about illegal immigrants. She should save her compassion for the LEGAL immigrants.
Catholic church looks at illegals like Democrats look at them...more fellow travelers
Ping!
“I get so mad. I get mad at the (Mexican) government for not taking care of their own people.”
It’s not just Mexico, Mrs. Krentz, it’s the entire world.
Some of any group numbering in the millions would kill you for your sandwich too. Some for just looking at them.
It is heartbreaking that this Rancher was murdered.
More AuntB. When the trenches start to fill, the flood of criminal border crossers will stop.
Sue Krentz is NOT a liberal. She is a human being, that cares about other human beings.
I am convinced if we don’t secure the border and deport illegals our country will not survive and yet I help illegals that are in dire need of help. The vast distances in this area to any town mean long response times for ambulance, law enforcement, and at times even for Border Patrol. If the people here don’t help illegals in need they likely will die. This is not the city where there is all sorts of help available. I will not let someone die for lack of water, or from anything else if I can help it. I do not want the illegals to die, I just want them to stay in their own country, and I want my country to make sure that happens.
It is easy to say don’t help the illegals, or shoot them or whatever- it is different when you live every day with the crisis brought about by the incompetent government of our country and others. I call Border Patrol on every illegal I see, and yet I will also help the illegals if they are in dire need of help and there are no authorities available to help them.
You really should think about the old saying of not judging someone until you have walked a mile in their shoes.
Normally we have NO WAY to call Border Patrol or anyone else until we return home to a landline, or get where a cell phone works which can be hours later. Cell phones do not work at all over large stretches of country along the border. I am 110 miles from the nearest city and my phone works for about 10 minutes of that trip. The usual scenerio is we are out checking cattle and see illegal activity. If the illegals are suffering heat stroke, snakebite or other emergency we help them same as we would help you if you were out here. If we don’t help them they will likely die before anyone else gets to them. That is a fact we all understand. When we return to the house and have a phone to use we call Border Patrol and let them know what and where we saw activity and contact we had with the illegals if any. If we are lucky we may see a Border Patrol to wave down and get help sooner. Most of the time you see BP everywhere until you need one and then there aren’t any. Murphy’s law or whatever.
I know it seems to many of you that those of us that live here do things that make no sense, but most of you have no understanding of what it really is like in the middle of nowhere. We do the best we can with what we have. It does not mean we are supporting illegal crossers or that we are liberals.
