Getting Mexico's Attention

On the federal level there is no solution.  Democrats shed crocodile tears over the border crisis involving women and children.  When they link up with the other 11 million illegal aliens in the U.S. the Left has cemented its demographic coup.  Our President knows when they are legitimized they will vote overwhelmingly Democrat completing the clever strategy and it seems unstoppable. Obama will do nothing because it’s not in his interest to do so; he has only two years to go in office.  The Republican leadership likes the cheap labor because they are businessmen whose class has chased cheap labor before the Industrial Revolution was thought of.  Threatening to cut off foreign aid to the sources of illegal alien hordes won’t work either.

But there is hope on the state level.  So far, there has been a failure to communicate with Mexico, the facilitator of our border deluge.  The governors of California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, like President Obama, can also use their pens.  They have the power to issue conditional pardons to criminals in their states on the condition of immigrating to Mexico.  It’s a win-win for all Americans, especially our criminals who want freedom.

The concept is simple; fight fire with fire.  Each border state activates its national guard and establishes tent cities along the Mexican border.  Even if it’s in the desert, they’re no big deal.  I lived in one at 29 Palms, in the Mohave Desert for a month.  There is no need for elaborate or expensive fencing or walls because the desert is the fence and the maneuvers of the National Guard are accounted for and budgeted.   Who wants to go anyplace when the surface temperature in the afternoon is 144 degrees? On the other hand, there is freedom.  When our criminals arrive at the border they do so with the understanding that they will permanently become undocumented immigrants to Mexico (or any other country besides the U.S.).  If they break the terms of the pardon and return to the U.S., extra time will be added to their original sentence.


Before they go, our criminals should be properly outfitted:  two gallons of water, plenty of breakfast burritos and hot sauce, maps (for those who can read), an English-Spanish language book, rendezvous locations so that they can hook up with the gangs (MS-13) or cartels of their choice, the phone number of the local Mexican chapters of the ACLU or Hispanic civil rights groups, and plenty of Colorado pot and confiscated cocaine for trading stock.  If that sounds ridiculous then so is the very real crisis on our border with Mexico.   It’s time for our governors (all of them) to live up to their oaths of office and confront Mexico and the other nations south of us who use us as a dumping ground.
