: (

I'm feeling kinda hopeless on the border these days... I guess we should just give up and focus on abortion and guns?

[Rembrandt]

Why don’t they simplify things and declare their city part of Mexico. All doubt would then be removed.

[pissant]

The SantaFe police chief and the city council should be arrested immediately. Filthy rotten bastards.

[EagleUSA]

This is sad. Sad for America. Just making the problem worse. And who will these “employees” be loyal to? Other non-citizen Mexicans? Another Pandora’s box thanks to the pro-illegal immigration mob that is ruining this country, its system of laws, its borders, its soverignty, its citizenship, and its national security -—

WHEN DOES THE INSANITY STOP ??

[jess35]

Santa Fe. Wow, what a surprise!

Not.

[4buttons]

hey if it brings the extreme integrity and sense of duty Mexican police forces are noted for world-wide, I’m all for it.

[marron]

OK, I get that Santa Fe is looking to add hispanic officers to its police roster. But do they expect anyone to believe that in Santa Fe, in New Mexico, there are no hispanic americans at all, who might be interested in the job?

Really?

[HiTech RedNeck]

States should ban this in their constitutions.

[battlegearboat]

I'm amazed at how fast our nation is unraveling.

It's going to be a very bloody civil war.

[battlegearboat]

I fear not what will happen to me.

My poor babies!

[gondramB]

4 million people in the bay area and they have to go to foreign nationals to fill 20 vacancies? Hmmm Doesn’t pass the smell test.

[endthematrix]

I wouldn’t doubt that ranks of the organized crime syndicates (gangs) apply. They are sent to colleges and run legitimate business and run for political office, I don’t see why not join the cops. They wouldn’t have to buy off, they’d have a made man on the inside.

“Idiot wind, blowing like a circle around my skull,
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You’re an idiot, babe.
It’s a wonder that you still know how to breathe.”

Bob Dylan

[L.N. Smithee]

Sgts. Gillian Alessio and Marvin Paulk told the city's Public Safety Committee on Tuesday that they are trying to think outside the box to fill 20 vacancies on the 155-person force.

These aren't "jobs Americans won't do," they're jobs THEY DON'T WANT Americans to do! It's hard to be outraged more than I am already without being just plain tuckered out!

[Fitzcarraldo]

this is how the feudal lords of mexico take over the US. create a state of corruption here.

[Lion Den Dan]

This really caps the immigration argument. Now, I suppose the move will be to use alien cops to enforce foreign laws against American citizens. Grrrrr.

[The KG9 Kid]

They do this and Los Zetas will have legitimate presence on an American police force on this side of the border.

The hideous violence of the Mexican border town's narcotrafficates will be right in Santa Fe NM inside of a decade.

People will wonder 'How did this happen?!' when they finally read about it on the cover of Newsweek in 2011.
