Also on Mexican TV today, they were talking about the high number of Chinese in Mexico. Supposedly, they have jobs in Mexico. I guess they are doing the jobs that Mexicans won't do. According to TV their numbers are in the thousands. >>>

Seems to me, about a month ago I read that mex. had picked
up abt. 40 illegal chinese working in the factories along
the border. But, it sure beats me as to why they would stop in mexico to work, as they are so close to the USA.

Also, saw where many Asians plan their vacations, so they may birth their baby here for US citizenship.

You mean we haven't been?????? That says volumes about how the terrs can have a field day here. INS must be run by the cheapest, dumbest bureaucrats money can rent.>>>>>>

Expired legal visa's worked for the 1993 WTC bombing, and
they did the SAME thing bring about the attack on 9-11.

But at least DC is now *thinking* about tracking our visitors, maybe they'll get around to it someday.

Yeah, God forbid, we actually watch a Saudi citizen. We might "offend" them.

If shopping in the United States means her comings and goings will be tracked and recorded, "it's better not to come," she said. I think she stubbled into the correct answer to the problem...

You get sick of their whining that they don't want any inconveniences when they cross the border to go shop at Walmart. For one ---why not build some Walmarts in Mexico? They could use the jobs. Too bad but the security of American citizens needs to come ahead of the Mexicans' need to cross the border for frivolous reasons.

What they really have a problem with is that so many get these shopping cards and then come back and forth to work and bring their kids to US schools. You see all these "shoppers" every morning waiting in the lines at 6-7 am to come over, you can follow them to the nearest school and watch them drop off 5-6 kids to have US taxpayers provide a free education (and free breakfast and lunch), then they head to work and you'll see them heading back home at 5pm. Very little shopping got done.

For example, Douglas has six traffic lanes coming into the United States and only two for leaving.

You know that should tell us something right there!!

Once they stop buying from us their business support will dry up. So what if border towns are destroyed. We can use them as locations for mine fields and machine gun nests. Just let those Mexicans try to cross then

Finally someone gets it.

Wal-Mart is in mexico, however, I believe they are further
south. Guess the border area is even to bad for WM. I did read in "the news Mexico" (before it went off-line) that WM's "food advertizements" were found to be violating mex. laws & WM was going to stop selling food in these stores.

Maybe if mexico would "clean house" in the border towns
they COULD attract businesses to come into these areas.
