The Dreadful Plight of Mexicans Forced to Live in… Mexico
Posted By Brenda Walker On 13 February 2008

Marginally increased border enforcement has given rise to a new sub-category of the sob story genre — Mexican citizens returned to their own country and required to live there. Elvira Arellano (a convicted felon) is the queen of this category, since she was repatriated to Mexico last year and the squawking hasn’t stopped since.

[quote]Carlos Martinez was in a state of total panic after being deported from the United States to the Mexican border city of Matamoros — he had no money, nowhere to go, and, worst of all, he didn’t speak Spanish. The 30-year-old New Yorker had left Mexico as a baby; when the Department of Homeland Security sent him south last May after he had served a prison term, he landed in a foreign land.

“I was crying when I went over the border. It was just a big joke to the U.S. immigration officials to have this Mexican who doesn’t speak Spanish. But I was terrified,â€

I can't believe he didn't speak Spanish. Sorry, illegal alien parents communicated to him in Spanish. I bet he had ESL classes too. I hope he called his parents and are suffering the guilt of putting him in that situation and for raising a child that became a criminal.
