"Yep"

Good. I read it too. Now perhaps you can give me a list of factual support from that article that disproves comments made today by the BP and the WH. I only see notations to Mexican documents from a Mexican website. Have you read them and confirmed the reporters translations are accurate? If not, why not.

And here is the comment from the Border Patrol spokesmen quoted in the article...

"Martinez said reporting the location of immigrant apprehensions to consulate representatives is common practice if an illegal immigrant requests counsel or believes they have been mistreated.

"Once an illegal alien is apprehended, they can request counsel," he said. "We have to give their counsel the information about their apprehension, and that includes where they are apprehended, whether a Minuteman volunteer spotted them or a citizen."

Martinez said Mexico's official perception of the civilian groups is that they are vigilantes, a belief the Border Patrol hoped to allay by entering into the cooperative agreement."

What part of his statement do you object to, and what part of it contradicts statements made today by the BP and WH?
