Mexico: 5,000 migrants died on way to U.S. since '94

Posted 17m ago

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico's National Human Rights Commission says more than 5,000 Mexican migrants have died in deserts, rivers and mountains trying to reach the U.S. since 1994.

The commission says governments must do more to protect migrants from robbers, smugglers and others who seek to exploit them.

It said Thursday in a statement that on average, three migrants perished every two days in 2007 and 2008 in the U.S.-Mexico border region.

According to the National Statistics and Geography Institute, more than 280,000 Mexicans emigrated in the first six months of 2009 — a 25% drop over the same period last year.

The U.S. economic downturn and crackdowns on immigrants have contributed to the drop.

All of these death could have been avoided if Mexicans would just stay in their own country

and stop violating U.S. laws.

At least that many American citizens were killed each and every year by illegal aliens.

Is this published in all the newspapers in Mexico? Doubt it.

Do you mean to tell me we're going to have 560,000 more Mexicans in the United States this year?!!

Wake Up America! Get these people out of here. And Mexico, if you care about your people "dying in the desert", then get some troops on your roadways and arrest them before they get to the US Border. Otherwise, c'est la vie.
