When I read the article, certain phraseology burned me up and I started to frame an angry comment. Then I thought. This is a treaty. It was probably signed to make sure our guys in foreign lands wouldn't just be dumped in a prison and left anonymously to rot.

That being the case, we have to be willing to do the same, even if the subject is a murdering animal who took American lives.

But there is still some legitimate burn. This is about Mexico's lack of the death penalty and their wanting to spare this item's life, not really about being notified under the treaty. Anybody else, including life incarceration, they probably wouldn't have cared.

The fact is they don't need the death penalty. Their psychopaths and sociopaths seek their fortunes in the North along with their indigent. They just don't want us to to kill 'em but support 'em for the rest of their lives in a warm comfortable US prison.

OK, if they want to spare this thug, then how about they store him in a Mexican prison and feed him on their dime.

This is about Mexico's lack of the death penalty

Well Mexico actually does have the death penalty --- Carlos Salinas's own brother just experienced it the other day. As did their brother-in-law did a few years ago. Many journalists in Mexico have been given the death penalty for speaking out against the government. They just have a different way of applying their death penalty.
