Where is the Christian compassion for immigrant children?

[Ernie S.]

We're not allowed to go there to sponge off of Mexican citizens, you idiot.

 

[GreenBean]

No, just give the southwest back to Hispanics - from which it was stolen.

The Hispanic Experience - Stolen Birthright

We took the whole damn country and flew our flag over Mexico City. We never should have given it back, we wouldn't be in this mess now but the president at the time didn't think our country could absorb 1/3 Hispanics at the time. Wonder why today's president thinks differently? Seems to me we should just take it back. There's something innately wrong with a one way border.

Aren't you allowed in Mexico and South America?

Why don't ask the American Marine who got lost, strayed across the border int Mexico and has been held in a Mexican Prison ever since .

Change the Dept. of Indian Affairs, to the Dept. of Latino Affairs, and display the Indians off the reservations....at least most of them can speak English and hold down a job!

The word is conquered - it was conquered from the Natives by the Spanish and reconquered by the Americans a few Centuries later. Got a problem with that - write Queen Isabella .

I've been reading that piece and it's extremely slanted. Not sure how true it is. I do know it says that Mexicans were deported along with their "American" children during the great depression. Well, until the 70's children born here to illegal immigrants weren't considered citizens. I don't know exactly when they decided that being born here meant you were automatically a citizen, but the constitution wasn't interpreted that way before the 70's.

I also noticed so far, not one mention of the Plan De San Diego. Where the Mexicans decided to kill all American males 16 and over. Not one. Seems a big thing to leave out to me.

How many weapons was he carrying? How many times had he crossed the Mexican border?

Does it matter? He wasn't hiding them. He took a wrong turn, there was no way to go back. He told them he had the guns and he didn't want to go to Mexico. He had no choice and they put him in jail. How can you defend that?

Crossed 4 times with guns? Sounds like he needed a compass.

 

[Ernie S.]

He's an American citizen. He has rights.

Whoopie, he crossed there 3 times, in how many years? And have you never missed your exit on the freeway? I've missed my exit for my own hometown a couple of times and I've lived here for more than 40 years, though in truth, I'm more likely to miss my entrance. We have an entrance for carpools and everytime I have someone in my car with me, I head for that entrance, but for some reason, when I reach the stop sign, I keep forgetting to turn right and head on down to military road instead. I guess something in me just wants to go to that casino in Auburn.

 

[Againsheila]

Not in Mexico he doesn't. And apparently our fine President agrees. He hasn't done one thing to help him.

I'm sure he didn't have guns the first 3 times, or he had the paperwork for them. This time, he flat out said he had them, that's why they arrested him, he never intended to go to Mexico. I hope I never end up on that freeway, I'm likely to just start backing up instead of going through the border crossing. I'd rather get in an accident than cross into Mexico without the paperwork. I've been there. I've visited one of their prisons, I would never want to be in one, especially since I'm a woman. I know how they treat their female prisoners and it's not pretty. That marine has it easy compared to a female prisoner.

Then why do Mexican citizens have "rights" here?

 

[Againsheila]

Then why do Mexican citizens have "rights" here?

Excellent question. We need reciprocal laws. However they treat us in their country, that's how they should be treated in ours.

He has rights there, they have rights here. They didn't just shoot the guy you idiots. He's in jail and the Mexican courts are working out what to do with him since he broke Mexican law. Grow up people, please...

Andrew Tahmooressi: Marine's first attorneys 'missed' chance to free him from Mexican jail, says his lawyer - wptv.com

"I believe he was denied several basic human rights, which, it's my contention, should result in reparation from the court" in the form of declaring a mistrial or tossing out the testimony "of those officers who are singling him out as the responsible party in this case."

yeah, right.

And if he has rights, you'd have no problem with reciprocal laws, would you?

Attorneys, courts = rights in this case. Now grow up please.

 

[Nova78]

Seriously, where the hell is it? America is a nation of immigrants. America is also a Christian nation according to many rightwingers. So, where is that Christian compassion?

I know, we can send them all to Indian reservations .Then you can give them all the compassion they need .

 

[Ibentoken]

Christian compassion is making sure the children receive medical attention if needed, they are clothed and fed, then returned to their homes.

From the sounds of it most of them will be, so relax people, just calm down.

He has human rights there, they have humans rights here. See how that works?
