Increased statewide immigration enforcement has accelerated human rights violations of Mexican nationals, a consul for the Mexican government said Monday in Oklahoma City.http://newsok.com/mexican-consul-urges-mutual-respect/article/3239479/?tm=1210050724

And what does the the Mexican government have to say about this ?MEXICO CITY - While Mexican immigrants led the charge in Chicago and other cities Thursday to push the U.S. government to treat illegal immigrants more humanely, the same demands for immigrant rights are festering in Mexico, which is facing mounting international criticism for how it treats Latin American migrants.

In April, diplomats from El Salvador and Honduras formally protested after dozens of their citizens accused Mexican authorities of brutality while they were detained.

That same month, the top UN advocate for migrant rights toured the country and proclaimed that "the impunity with which Mexico victimizes Central American immigrants makes it the principal violator of human rights on the American continent." Here in this photo we have a Mexican Navy soldier who uses a baton to hit an illegal, do we have a case of basic human rights, violations? Mexico and open borders lobby for illegals where is the outrage ? Where is La Raza at ? How is it other people are entering Mexico and finding work ?(While most migrants are en route to the United States, many stay to work as cheap labor, especially in Mexican coffee fields.)http://banderasnews.com/0805/edat-seekin...

That article is BS



La Raza, the Mexican Govt, Big Business, and bleeding heart liberals view any opposition to ILLEGAL immigration as racism

THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE IN THIS COUNTRY

that is common to work out why Mexico is the sort of tousled place if their president, Felipe Calderon, isn't any smarter than the comments made by ability of him in accordance to this YA. Calderon mentioned “the worst abuses interior the history of humanity” he ought to comprehend what the worst abuse may well be and that i thought that substitute into the way the Mexican government entertained themselves. And his remark “---a death with that degree of violence is an exceedingly unacceptable violation”; violation of what; his united states is definitely undemanding for violent crimes; if a dozen unlawful extraterrestrial beings an afternoon died as this man or woman did it does not journey sooner or later in Mexico’s common of residing. Calderon is yet another third international chief who might decide to make the international have faith his united states has no issues and is greater advantageous that maximum different international places. The Blind optimum the blind; and he expects human beings to have faith what he says! Johnathan c - - desire help packing your luggage? i'm helpful no person here will omit you.

Personally, I don't think illegals should have any rights whatsoever, except for the right to a trip back across the border. They are criminals and should be treated as such. I'm so freaken sick and tired of the Mexican government protesting what the US is trying to do with it's citizens. If Mexico is so concerned they can take them back and keep them.

I don't see much in the way of immigration enforcement. I believe everyone has a right to a better life but how many people came to this country from Europe and Asia and learned the English language so they could communicate and get by. Why should we learn someone else's language? You have a great point though, why is Mexico so hard on illegals when they think we should welcome them with open arms.

I am actually thinking more and more that it is anyone but illegals whos rights are being violated? They seem to get away with murder while citizens are being threatened for just trying to survive.

Yes.



My father, born in this country in the twenties, was harassed and asked for documentation repeatedly while working construction in California.



I was once told during a job interview that I spoke English very well for one of "my people" This was after having to ask what nationality my obscure last name was.
