"Adios, Mofo!"

No leverage
Well, that didn’t take long. Shortly after President Trump signed executive orders aimed at immigration, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto ...well ...he kind of freaked out.
Hours after U.S. President Donald Trump signed executive orders to curb illegal immigration, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto promised Wednesday night to protect Mexicans in the United States.
The guy still thinks he’s a relevant part of our government....
"Adios, Mofo!"
So far from God ...
So close to the United States ...
The Wall will help them shed their corruption.
Let’s shine the most honest light we can. Addicts in the USA (it’s virtually impossible to get rid of addictions through bans... in places which are draconian about street drugs like Singapore, the addictions become medicalized) have been feeding evil in Mexico. This drugs game took two countries to tango.
The Wall needs to happen for everybody’s benefit no matter who pays, and maybe it would make sense for the US and Mexico to go half and half on it.
We import oil and Marijuana from Mexico,
Along with their poor huddled masses.
Tequila?
You should do it more often, they are head and shoulders above the Ministry of Propaganda.
Just heard that Mex Prez Nieto’s in-country approval rating is currently at 12% - ROFL!
He went into business with Cindy Crawfords husband
God is only a sincere prayer away.
This shouldn’t even need to be a denominational thing. The point is to ask Jesus into your heart, pushing the devil out. And Jesus isn’t standing on ceremony, like He could only do that in a Baptist church (or a Catholic church, or a whatever church etc.)
But it may take the prospect of a huge upset of the status quo to move people to consider thinking about things that are out of this world (since things that are in this world are beginning to fail).
#11, At least he is one Mexican that is still in Mexico! :)
Trump should tell him the same thing he told the mayor of Chi-town. Clean up the murders, drugs and make the countryside safe, or we can help you!
Yearning to stay in chains, unfortunately. If they walked over here intending to become as American as possible, rather than being irredentist about Hispanic identity, they’d be free and we would probably not even be complaining about how many there were.
He does have representatives in Congress, Raul Grijalva and Luis Gutierrez, just to name two.
Mexico’s Immigration Law: Let’s Try It Here at Home
jwaller | Monday May 8, 2006 12:00 AM
Mexico has a radical idea for a rational immigration policy that most Americans would love. However, Mexican officials haven’t been sharing that idea with us as they press for our Congress to adopt the McCain-Kennedy immigration reform bill.
That’s too bad, because Mexico, which annually deports more illegal aliens than the United States does, has much to teach us about how it handles the immigration issue. Under Mexican law, it is a felony to be an illegal alien in Mexico.
At a time when the Supreme Court and many politicians seek to bring American law in line with foreign legal norms, it’s noteworthy that nobody has argued that the U.S. look at how Mexico deals with immigration and what it might teach us about how best to solve
our illegal immigration problem. Mexico has a single, streamlined law that ensures that foreign visitors and immigrants are:
in the country legally;
have the means to sustain themselves economically;
not destined to be burdens on society;
of economic and social benefit to society;
of good character and have no criminal records; and
contributors to the general well-being of the nation.
The law also ensures that:
immigration authorities have a record of each foreign visitor;
foreign visitors do not violate their visa status;
foreign visitors are banned from interfering in the country’s internal politics;
foreign visitors who enter under false pretenses are imprisoned or deported;
foreign visitors violating the terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported;
those who aid in illegal immigration will be sent to prison.
Who could disagree with such a law? It makes perfect sense. The Mexican constitution strictly defines the rights of citizens — and the denial of many fundamental rights to non-citizens, illegal and illegal. Under the constitution, the Ley General de Población, or
General Law on Population, spells out specifically the country’s immigration policy.
It is an interesting law — and one that should cause us all to ask, Why is our great southern neighbor pushing us to water down our own immigration laws and policies, when its own immigration restrictions are the toughest on the continent? If a felony is a
crime punishable by more than one year in prison, then Mexican law makes it a felony to be an illegal alien in Mexico.
If the United States adopted such statutes, Mexico no doubt would denounce it as a manifestation of American racism and bigotry.
We looked at the immigration provisions of the Mexican constitution. [1] Now let’s look at Mexico’s main immigration law.
Mexico welcomes only foreigners who will be useful to Mexican society:
Foreigners are admitted into Mexico “according to their possibilities of contributing to national progress.” (Article 32)
Immigration officials must “ensure” that “immigrants will be useful elements for the country and that they have the necessary funds for their sustenance” and for their dependents. (Article 34)
Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets “the equilibrium of the national demographics,” when foreigners are deemed detrimental to “economic or national interests,” when they do not behave like good citizens in their own country, when they have broken Mexican laws, and when “they are not found to be physically or mentally healthy.” (Article 37)
The Secretary of Governance may “suspend or prohibit the admission of foreigners when he determines it to be in the national interest.” (Article 38)
Mexican authorities must keep track of every single person in the country:
Federal, local and municipal police must cooperate with federal immigration authorities upon request, i.e., to assist in the arrests of illegal immigrants. (Article 73)
A National Population Registry keeps track of “every single individual who comprises the population of the country,” and verifies each individual’s identity. (Articles 85 and 86)
A national Catalog of Foreigners tracks foreign tourists and immigrants (Article 87), and assigns each individual with a unique tracking number (Article 91).
Foreigners with fake papers, or who enter the country under false pretenses, may be imprisoned:
Foreigners with fake immigration papers may be fined or imprisoned. (Article 116)
Foreigners who sign government documents “with a signature that is false or different from that which he normally uses” are subject to fine and imprisonment. (Article 116)
Foreigners who fail to obey the rules will be fined, deported, and/or imprisoned as felons:
Foreigners who fail to obey a deportation order are to be punished. (Article 117)
Foreigners who are deported from Mexico and attempt to re-enter the country without authorization can be imprisoned for up to 10 years. (Article 118)
Foreigners who violate the terms of their visa may be sentenced to up to six years in prison (Articles 119, 120 and 121). Foreigners who misrepresent the terms of their visa while in Mexico — such as working with out a permit — can also be imprisoned.
Under Mexican law, illegal immigration is a felony. The General Law on Population says,
“A penalty of up to two years in prison and a fine of three hundred to five thousand pesos will be imposed on the foreigner who enters the country illegally.” (Article 123)
Foreigners with legal immigration problems may be deported from Mexico instead of being imprisoned. (Article 125)
Foreigners who “attempt against national sovereignty or security” will be deported. (Article 126)
Mexicans who help illegal aliens enter the country are themselves considered criminals under the law:
A Mexican who marries a foreigner with the sole objective of helping the foreigner live in the country is subject to up to five years in prison. (Article 127)
Shipping and airline companies that bring undocumented foreigners into Mexico will be fined. (Article 132)
All of the above runs contrary to what Mexican leaders are demanding of the United States. The stark contrast between Mexico’s immigration practices versus its American
immigration preachings is telling. It gives a clear picture of the Mexican government’s agenda: to have a one-way immigration relationship with the United States.
Let’s call Mexico’s bluff on its unwarranted interference in U.S. immigration policy. Let’s propose, just to make a point, that the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) member nations standardize their immigration laws by using Mexico’s own law as a model.

Because they want to keep up great evil and great sin (as great as ours have been, they have managed to still surpass it... the bad always wants to be a parasite on the good, relatively speaking).
You forgot hard cash via welfare.
But anyhow, in the US, tracking people is considered an impracticality in many cases. The ideal is that you ought to be able to go anywhere or do anything you want that is not forbidden to everybody, and that nobody would care.
Public morality and aspirations are the only practical brake on this.
The Wall is needed, because there have to be doors at which the earnest question is asked, “What do you intend by coming here?”
