An immigration reform activist thinks the continued rampant violence in Mexico should serve as a stern warning to Americans that it's essential for the U.S. government to shut down the border.
The U.W. State Department recently told American diplomats in the northern Mexican city of Monterrey to remove their children from the area due to growing threats of kidnappings and because of a shoot-out that took place in front of an American school there.
Beginning September 10, the Department says the U.S. consulate general in Monterrey will become a "partially unaccompanied post," meaning diplomats and other government personnel stationed there will not be allowed to have their minor children with them.
Mexican authorities have also confirmed that a second migrant survived the recent massacre of 72 Central and South Americans near the border where U.S. authorities suspect the Zetas drug gang killed the migrants for refusing to smuggle drugs.
Ira Mehlman"Mexico seems to be a society that is on the brink of implosion," laments Ira Mehlman, spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). "The Mexican government is losing control of large sections of the country. There is violence that is just spilling out of control in those places, and it's right at our doorstep."
In fact, he says the hostility has already affected the U.S. side of the border. "We've even lost control of certain places inside our country," the FAIR spokesman explains.

Drugs to finish off the weaker segment of American society plus the added bonus of islamic terrorists are their fellow travelers.
It amazes me that we have left such a vital border virtually unprotected, especially since the events of 9/11.
I guess political correctness trumps national security.
Cool - when it implodes maybe it’ll suck all it’s illegals back into it’s center.
We can all implode at the same time. Cool. Misery loves company.
The WOD is Lost!
Mexico imploding, with the massive rush of illegals flooding the SouthWest, could be the October surprise leading to our Dear Leader canceling midterm elections due to a National emergency.
Just a thought..
There’s a LOT of people itching to vote in Novemeber. I wonder what the result of bottling up that little bit of anger would be...
One things for sure. The manufactured crisis has not lost any power when it comes to stirring up the masses into allowing anything goes from their keepers in Washington, Dee Cee.
As I’ve said before, turn borde security over to the rednecks, let ‘em play cowboys & mexicans for a few weeks, & the border would be secure. Zero outlay of cash as opposed to a military response. They’d be happy to pay their own travel expenses AND supply their own ammo.
At this point, the only way to handle the border is to consider working with the Mexican government, which they probably wouldn’t do, and use our military to totally sterilize the Mexican towns along our border. The Mexican military is fast becoming useless and the United States will, most likely, have to step in. The problem with this is that it may play into the hands of those supporting the NAU (North American Union).
We need another Blackjack Pershing and an administration that will let him clean house down there.
General Scott..... Paging General Winfield Scott
Invasion required from the Yucatan please
We will invade and occupy Mexico within the next 20 years, count on it.
Mexico on the brink of implosion - ah just like California.
What do they have in common?
Reminds me of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the movie the End of Times. LOL!
I think you’re correct. It’s inevitable.
Stupid idiots in AZ voting for McCain. I hope they get the bubonic plague. Idiots supporting open border RINOs like McCain and Rubio.
No need to act in haste. A few signs should fix the problem.
It's not "political correctness", it's political opportunism. The Democrats care more about staying in power than they do about national security, and they'll let every scum bag gangbanger and Al Qaida operative in Mexico come across the border if they think they might get enough votes out of the deal to hang on their majority in Congress.
Our D.C. politicians ain’t got the guts. It will be left to the affected states to do the job, otherwise Mexico will own our southwest.
McClown on TV this weekend deploring the deaths of 28000 Mexicans due to drug violence.
The Arizona Voters have let the Evil Genie out of the bottle - ONCE AGAIN!!!
