Powerful 8.1 quake in Mexico

Up to 17 people from one town have been killed in the biggest Mexican earthquake for a century as the death toll from the disaster climbed to 26 today. The earthquake was felt across Mexico, toppling houses, shaking buildings in the country’s capital and leaving a million without power amid reports tremors were detected as a far away as Austin, Texas – more than 1,300 miles from the epicentre.

UPDATE: Death Toll Rising In Mexico From Largest Earthquake In a Century
Maybe illegals here will return to help them?

Wouldn't that be so sweet and kind of them....bahahah
If they left, we would have difficulty getting things done. Who would do construction, pick produce, clean hotel rooms, mow our lawns, etc....?

We need to recognize that many illegals provide a significant service to our economy.
 
Mexico Going to Hell?

An 8.1 earthquake. A hurricane lashing the southeast coast.. Teacher strikes. Inter-gang warfare killing civilians. US State Department issues warnings not to travel to Mexico. And now this:

Rocket hits helicopter in president’s fleet

Story @ Helicopter hit as protesters fire rockets at president's fleet
"Rockets?" Fireworks, right?

Nope, because there are no fireworks that could put a hole in that helo like that.

For future reference, remember that rockets WITHOUT guidance systems are called rockets, and rockets WITH guidance systems are called missiles.

What religious festivals use ROCKETS? I am unfamiliar. Trying to grapple with what type of flying incendiary offers nothing but smoke. Missiles? Don't they explode? And I'm back to religious festivals.
