“God, I cant believe the ignorance being shown here. Do you all REALLY believe that it is standard practice in international law for countries to shoot civilians when they cross their borders, in a time of peace?”
Your ignorance of Mexico’s southern border enforcement perhaps?
Old 2002 article about mexican's southern border
2010 article by Michelle Malkin about Mexican's southern border enforcement
1996 article about Mexico enforcing it's southern border
Gateway Pundit 2010 article about Mexico building a fence on their southern border
I could do more, but that runs a pretty good gamut.
Now, would you be so kind as to look at any of those links, or find your own link, to support the implication you have made (I note that you NEVER seem to actually SAY anything, you just imply it), that Mexico is SHOOTING people? There's all sorts of information about them agressively arresting people, and building a fence. They have a law that makes illegal entry a felony punishable by 2 years detention. They are strict on their border, while asking us to be lenient.
It is sad though that you have been so confused as to think they actually shoot illegals on sight as part of a normal policy.
Mexico has a more severe problem with drug traffickers on their southern border than we do -- but they don't have a policy of killing border crossers on sight, as you implied.
Again, you are welcome to go through my many links I have provided for your edification, or provide your own, to support your spurious claim.
Or you could continue to show your ignorance.
