Mexican soldiers enter Arizona, hold agent briefly - Santa Cruz...

You know sooner rather than later, one of these accidental incursions is going to end with a dead Arizona family.

This type of problem noted in the article, is just one more example of how our elected officials (particularly at the national and federal level) have systemically ignored the basic protection of the safety of it's citizens and national soveriegnty. While I certainly do not condone or encourage violence, it is for me, more and more understandable. When the gov't stops working for the people, it's time for the people to start protecting themselves.

I didn't notice in the story that they had maps or GPS devices, and even if they did it is common practice for law enforcement to pursue beyond boundaries, or is that another practice supported only for US law enforcement?
Thanks for the lesson, obviously you don't get out much and deal with reality.

you should dtudy the border rules for us government

.the united state congress heald a congretional hearing a few years ago about this type of stuff

the local cops wonted big back up

this is not new

and everybody wonders why we need a wall. well this is one of the reasons.

So Fubar, get off your freaking Mexican high horse. If you don't care enough about your country to go back home and do something about it, then just shut up. Your opinion is worthless. You are useless to your country because you sold out for dollars. Mexico neither wants nor needs you.

Patty you live in Texas, nothing you say has meaning. Mexico can have Texas (and your fat mouth)as far as I am concerned.

I'm sick of all the illegals running around my town! They hang out IN DROVES outside of the local Home Depot.

A country really doing as well as you claim Mexico is, would not have to keep dumping so many millions of it's citizens into the USA.
Mexicans are dying trying to get out of Mexico, they are pulling any stunt to get out of that country. Dying by the thousands. If the economy is really so strong then that would not be the case.

It IS strong, it's just that the wealth is not evenly distributed. Mega billionaires abound such as Carlos Slim, but the masses are still dirt poor. Hence their reasons for risking life and limb to provide for their family.

<quoted text>If it's growing so well and their economy is actually good then why do they keep sending their poor to the U.S to find work? Because their real economy is in remittances from the illegal U.S workers sending money to their families in the south. Mexico has become a giant leach. They need to overthrow their government and make one exactly like ours so they won't have to be jealous of us any more and they can enjoy their OWN country. They could have everything we have. They have the land. They have natural resources. They have a booming tourist industry. They don't really need the drug lords. They LET them have the power because in Mexico 2% of the population controls 80% of the wealth. They need to be over thrown French Revolution style and start from scratch. What they don't need is to take over our country... but the lazy bastards are going to do it any way, because it's easier to prance down the street demanding rights here then get the rights they RIGHTFULLY own in their OWN country

Exactly right on the money! They need a proper Mexican Revolution, not a "reconquista"... The Mexicans should be taking to their own streets and protesting their own corrupt, inept government oligarchy instead of hypocritically taking to our streets and protesting our government while they are simultaneously trespassing on those same streets and breaking the laws of our government!

They obviously don't need more LAND - the only reason they want this land now is that we built a great and civilized society on top of it. Of course, it's not going to stay that way if they just transplant everything that's wrong with their own country and culture north... That's just creating a giant version of Tijuana Norte.

15 years ago had anyone heard of Norteños, MS-13 or 18th Street, or had their kid's kindergarten class ruled by Spanish-speakers?

Comic Relief~ This is hilarious to me. I think all this border patrol is FUNNY! Once Europeans came here they made these fancy lines and names for places. This "Mexican" stuff just makes these folks go crazy! It's like two dogs pissing on territory.

The US is full of a bunch of REDNECK racists. I bet these WASP men will write a lot of comments how this land is all about them and what THEY think. Like you Good Ole' Boys got anything decent to say. Sit down and guard your land from the invaders and DON'T let them cross your LINE! HA!HA!HA! That'll keep you busy!

Careful chief, throwing those stones.
Your spelling actually sucks.

Refresh my memory, please-
How did it come to pass that latin america speaks spanish?
Maybe through an invasion? You think?
Gato got your tongue?

Umm..Nope. Still laughing at this one. So, did I catch the interest of a Good Ole' Boy? Yeah, I know Spanish is European Sir.

I don't care who invaded who anymore. That's something you keep tabs on I'm sure. That's very WASPY.

Does anyone see that the mexican soldiers did not attack the BORDER PATROL AGENT? that they where actually doing the job ordered. Maybe insted of blowing this compleatly out of proportion we should ask our goverment to work a little more closely with mexico so insidents like this do not happen unless they are working together to stop drug traffic and any other traffic that may be going on?

You are making too much sense for this thread. These things happen all the time when when law enforcement from different juridictions come into contact with each other. Obviously we need help from Mexico to secure our borders. Seems like they were tracking the same people we are trying to keep out. We should have bought them a beer so next time they recognize our officers.

"Ethnocentrism often entails the belief that one's own race or ethnic group is the most important and/or that some or all aspects of its culture are superior to those of other groups. Within this ideology, individuals will judge other groups in relation to their own particular ethnic group or culture, especially with concern to language, behaviour, customs, and religion."

I'm gulity of this at times myself. I just think all this Border Patrol is mostly about Americans having a "Superior" feeling over Mexico. Americans are NOT "Superior" by any means over Mexicans...French are not "Superior" over the Americans etc...

It is not redneck to want to have a controlled border. I am all for people coming here legally, who have followed the proper procedures and for businesses to be held accountable for paying taxes on their workers, providing medical care so the public doesn't have to, etc. The current system does not work. We have criminals reentering within days of deportation. We have exploitation of labor. We have exploitation of public services. We have a school system that cannot keep up with the students who are not English speakers. We have knee jerk liberals defending those who break our laws, driving without licenses and insurance, etc. We have knee jerk Republicans who don't want employer sanctions. The wall is the only way to create a legal flow that takes into account the financial and societal realities of the immigration situation. The USA cannot be expected to feed and clothe all of Latin America's impoverished, nor should those people be exploited by big business. Ask yourself if the gang bangers in the latin american community are better off than if they had been raised in their home country? They are not. Many are victims theselves of domestic violence, alcohol and drug abuse, etc. Many will spend years in prison. Your desire to paint this in a broad swathe with name calling shows you really don't know very much about the situation as a whole. It is not as black and white as you would like to believe.

It's not about superiority or ethnicity. How about an unequal burden to our nation's EXPENSES.

Americans no longer want to foot the bill so that foreign invaders can take advantage of free education, free health care etc.

They hit our social services heavily and it's draining our treasury!
