so? were still obligated to protect our citizens. We still have embassies. By that rationale, if i committed a crime in Canada our government would just lock me out of our embassy and say "go at it boys" to the Canadian police. No country truly leaves it's citizens out in the cold when they are abroad, and what mexico is doing is no exception. they will continue to support their citizens like we would in any way until they are charged with a crime. Then i'm sure they will cooperate with out justice system.

And that is a well-reasoned answer.

Are you guys yelling '**** Mexico' over a legal brief serious or are you just having fun with a troll? Because you know I could easily post some pedantry explaining the purposes of a legal brief (which someone already mentioned...), relate the fact that the US would certainly make our opinion known if the position were reversed and that we'd have every right too, etc. etc.

And you know I'd be right, because you know what I mean already, or at least some of you appear to.

But if you're just toying with Gumby and his somewhat lame attempts to be provocative, I won't bother.

Want to know how bad illegal immigration is? Aside from the 50 some odd Mexicans standing outside of EVERY Home depot in California?

When half the crap solicitors leave on your car window or front door is in freaking Spanish. Not that i care for what they're peddling anyway, but i think it seriously says something half the business or calling cards you encounter aren't even in English anymore.

I'm left wondering if people that are living in states that don't share a border with Mexico truly understand how out of control illegal immigration is. I've been to other states that don't share said border, and comparitively, you only see 10% of the BS you do here. So i imagine things may seem hunky dory when it's not.
