I am wondering if Mexico is going to have a revolution? They’re seriously overdue for it.

The *ssholes in the media just can't write a headline without indicting Americans can they.

I don't know what the moron who wrote this particular headline expects Americans to do about Mexico's corrupt culture.

Would a candlelight vigil help?

Good point, but it is nothing compared to Mexico.

DECLARATION OF WAR!

Polk received word of the Thornton Affair, which, added to the Mexican government’s rejection of Slidell, Polk believed, constituted a casus belli (cause for war).[26]

His message to Congress on May 11, 1846, stated that “Mexico has passed the boundary of the United States, has invaded our territory and shed American blood upon American soil.”

Congress approved the declaration of war on May 13, with southern Democrats in strong support. Sixty-seven Whigs voted against the war on a key slavery amendment,[29] but on the final passage only 14 Whigs voted no,[29] including Rep. John Quincy Adams.

Congress declared war on Mexico on May 13, 1846, after only having a few hours to debate. Although President Paredes’s issuance of a manifesto on May 23 is sometimes considered the declaration of war, Mexico officially declared war by Congress on July 7.

Coming to the US. Yep they are way overdue. I hope they have the courage to fight for their country or else we will see more border jumpers.

I see the libertarians on twitter are whining that Obama isn't including sweeping drug legalization in his decree.

President's "reform" plan won't include legalizing drugs--a step necessary to end the rapes, human trafficking & violence against ranchers.

The best way we could help is to secure the border and force Mexicans to stay in Mexico and solve their own problems rather than escaping to cause problems here in the US.

But then everyone at FR already knows that and the MSM will never figure that out.

We also don’t care much about Monsoons in Bangladesh, Ebola in Africa or the latest earthquake in China. Human nature.

They just keep throwing out these stories as diversions from the loss of our country and way of life, and try to make us appreciate the rapid fall in our standard of living by telling us how much worse things could be.

I was baffled by a couple of older co-workers talking about problems in some Third World dump half a world away; they were both in bad financial straits, and completely apathetic in terms of our own elections...

Why should we not ignore it?

We have enough problems of our own.
