Obama Administration Considers Plan to Bolster Mexico’s Southern Border

Obama administration and Mexican government officials recently discussed creating a three-tier security system designed to protect Mexico’s southern border from drug and human traffickers, according to U.S. officials.

The border control plan calls for U.S. funding and technical support of three security lines extending more than 100 miles north of Mexico’s border with Guatemala and Belize. The border security system would use sensors and intelligence-gathering to counter human trafficking and drug running from the region, a major source of illegal immigration into the United States.

Does it not occur to people here where those immigrants are headed?

What is the purpose of fighting drug trafficking on Mexico's lower border when the Mexicans are trafficking drugs and illegals into our country every day?

One's actions show you where the heart is!

That is what this administration argues. But they are supposed to be protecting our country, not Mexico. And if tighter border security would work on Mexico’s border, why wouldn’t it work here?

I think they need to have the DOJ sanctioned as a vexatious litigant.

Why don’t we just offer them statehood 3-4 states (1 with Mex city in the middle) others sliced for rural content and be done with it - make the “southern border” easier to contain... Do it at the same time we split CO, bring on PR, split cali, maybe SE Illinois, PA T, Northern NY, and North/East Cali. We could get up to 57 real easy...

When is a forward defense line a bad idea?

Especially when you can get a lot more fence for your money there than here.

Some Texans think we should build a border fence around neighboring states, invade Mexico and kill off the cartels and corrupt cops and all the politicians, and start a new country. Mexico has a lot of natural resources and we could use them.

If we are going to invade hot 3rd world crap holes and “nation build”, wouldn’t Mexico be the most logical place to start?

We don't want Guatemalans stealing the Mexican jobs that Americans won't do.

There has to be a hidden camera around here somewhere. The only explanation of the last 4.5 years is that this is some giant version of the TV show Punk'd.

I have a novel idea, let Mexico protect their Southern border and let the United States protect our Southern border.

Is there an html tag for ‘UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE’? Because there’s a compelling need for one lately. Is anyone keeping track of 0bama’s numerous impeachable offenses just this week and it’s only Thursday?

We need to stop the PEOPLE coming into the U.S. from Mexico, not the DRUGS coming into Mexico from Guatemala! Dumbass 0bama.
