Mexican officials lodged a complaint with the United States government over the floating barriers Texas installed in the Rio Grande River to deter migrants from crossing into the state illegally.
If the orange buoys impede the flow of the river, they could be in violation of 1944 and 1970 treaties between Mexico and the US that govern the boundaries and water that separate the two nations, Mexico’s Foreign Relations Secretary Alicia Bárcena wrote in a diplomatic note.
“We are sending a mission, a territorial inspection to see where the buoys are located … to carry out this topographical survey to verify that they do not cross into Mexican territory,” she added.

Nicely done.
Gold Hat: Hola, senor. We are Federales. You know, the mounted police.
Dobbs: If you're the police, where are your badges?
Gold Hat: [confused, then angry] Badges? We ain't got no badges! We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!
Dobbs: You'd better not come any closer. Gold Hat: We aren't trying to do you any harm. Why don't you try to be a little more polite? Give us your gun and we'll leave you in peace.
Dobbs: I need my gun myself.
And thus the NRA was formed!

Land mines would be a lot more effective in stopping and deterring illegal border crossings.

Agreed. Still, I wonder.
If they were not effective, would Mexico complain?

If Mexico is complaining, Texas is doing it right.
Here come the buoys. A little floating going on.

The best thing to do is tell Mexico to f*ck off.

I’ve said here many times I despise Mexico and Mexicans.
Arrogant beggars.
