04-03-2006, 11:15 PM #11too bad all these 'law abiding citizens' don't protest in their country to make it a safer place for the citizens and tourists. I found out my nephew went to Mexico with some friends not long ago . . . his response was to "get the hell out before it got dark."

I never thought I'd be worried about who becomes President of Mexico, but
US-Mexico ties might get a bit more complicated, but not necessarily worse. "There will no doubt be points of disagreement along the line between López Obrador and Bush," she says, "... but a lot of Mexicans would actually like to see a president who stands up to the US a little more - and I don't think the Bush administration is afraid of that either."
Obrador has come out against many of the free-trade economic policies supported by the US. Just as the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) enters the final years of its 15-year phase-in period, with the last agricultural tariffs to be lifted in 2008, Obrador talks of reopening chapters of NAFTA that he says have hurt Mexican corn and bean farmers.
On foreign policy, Obrador has reiterated his support for Mexico's long-standing nonintervention and pacifist policies, and made digs at what he sees as Fox's "mirroring" of US foreign policy, especially regarding Cuba. "We're not going to meddle in the internal life of other peoples and other governments, because we don't want them meddling in ours," Obrador said at a late February rally in Mexico City. "The next president of Mexico is not going to be the puppet of any foreign government."
And, on the question of illegal Mexican immigration to the US, Obrador talks particularly tough. He has, for instance, proposed taking a much more proactive role than Fox by using Mexico's 45 consulates in the US as "prosecutorial" offices to "protect our countrymen from mistreatment, discrimination, and the violation of their human rights." And he has stridently criticized Fox for being an elitist too eager to please the US.
"It's infuriating to see how President Fox, because he is dedicated to maintaining economic policies that only benefit the elite, does not have the moral or political authority to confront the disgrace of a wall on the border," Obrador told supporters at a January rally in Mexico City, in reference to a bill passed by the US Congress in December that would see a fence built along a third of the US-Mexico border. Fox has voiced stringent opposition to the barrier, but Obrador argues that for someone who has staked his presidency on immigration, Fox has far too little to show for his efforts.

That's good, BETO. You don't want to be like them. Only IDIOTS would threaten AMERICANS with a civil war! Did you see how Americans rallied together after 9/11? Well, that's how we are, you mess with us, you mess with the best and you don't want to do that! We don't take it well when YOU MESS WITH OUR COUNTRY!

Re: I just
BETO, I guess you can tell we do realize there is a difference between a Mexican national and border jumpers. I just wish other people could tell the difference. I saw a protester carrying a sign 'LEGALIZE IMMIGRATION" --- immigration is legal, that's not the problem!

3 pulled posts!
Please people! I've asked you nicely. Ive posted the article "Keep Your Cool" at the top of Gen Disc for over a week!
Now I am begging you!
Please please please! Just because you think something does not mean you should post it. Our rules are clear.
Does everyone remember two weeks ago when we lost several of our fighters on this board for going over the top!?!?!
Please do not incite threads like this on our side.
Damn it people. Keep you cool. I'm begging you.
The people that have been posting on this board for a long time should be examples to others, not people that run the risks associated with the three posts I just pulled.
I cannot tell you how very disappointed I get when I read stuff like that on our boards from people we should be able to trust.
You take something our opposition has done that speaks for our cause and then ruin it with certain comments that YOU KNOW are off limits.
We are supposed to be better than them people and just because you think something does not mean it is wise or allowed to go posting it here and inciting others into a frenzy.
It is embarrassing for us that I have to admit here openly that we have some self control problems on our boards.

I honestly feel that pro-illegal groups whom incite violence as some kind of solution to the problem only degrade their creditibility.
The end result of the illegal immigration problem will not end in some kind of civil war -- but by laws and enforcement of them in manners that do not incite civil war.
It's sad to see there are people out there wanting to propagandize some kind of doomsday concerning immigration if things go against the illegals. But I just don't see it happening.
I think there are a few people in the pro-illegal groups who are radical and their only intent is to try to win via violence. We can not let this be, and I know from looking at pro-illegals websites, that they themselves do not condone violence.

Violence generates more violence so i think we need to stay pretty calm. No use violence aganist violence but we can use knowledge and intelligent ideas.
