MIGUEL ALEMAN, Mexico - Hit men, pistols tucked in their pants and walkie-talkies strapped to their belts, move freely in this city of sorghum farmers and cattle ranchers, dropping off their ostrich-skin boots with shoeshine boys in the city's plaza and stopping at local bars for a beer. The openness with which they operate — in Miguel Aleman and countless other towns across Mexico — reflects the drug cartels' grip on this nation of nearly 100 million people, and the power they have gained as the top supplier for Americans' $65 billion illegal drug habit. Mexico's drug gangs have been highly successful in the past two decades, gradually replacing Colombian gangs in the United ...

A Pathetic Path For America's Accelerating Destruction By Frosty Wooldridge http://NewsWithViews.com 11-5-5 We suffer unconstitutional abuses perpetrated on Americans through massive allowances for illegal alien migration while our elected officials dump the insidious NAFTA/CAFTA agreements on us-giving law abiding citizens no way out.

House Republicans are looking closely at ending birthright citizenship and building a barrier along the entire U.S.-Mexico border as they search for solutions to illegal immigration. A task force of party leaders and members active on immigration has met since the summer to try to figure out where consensus exists, and several participants said those two ideas have floated to the top of the list of possibilities to be included either in an immigration-enforcement bill later this year or in a later comprehensive immigration overhaul. "There is a general agreement about the fact that citizenship in this country should not be bestowed on people who are the children of folks who come into ...

Mr Chertoff expects the numbers of immigrants to fall The US has vowed to stop every single illegal immigrant entering the country, by recruiting 1,000 extra agents and increasing the use of unmanned drones. "Our goal is to gain control of our borders," said Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. More than a million Mexicans are arrested every year as they try to enter the US to look for work. Experts said the migration trend would continue because of the huge wage gap between the US and Mexico. But Mr Chertoff insisted that once would-be immigrants learnt there was a high likelihood of being caught and sent home, the numbers trying to enter the US would ...

It’s a strain being a Mexican diplomat in the United States these days, as the plaintive expression on Mario Velázquez-Suárez’s dignified features suggests. Diplomacy may be the art of lying for one’s country, but Mexican diplomacy requires taking that art to virtuosic heights. Sitting in his expansive office in Mexico’s Los Angeles consulate, Deputy Consul General Velázquez-Suárez gamely insists that he and his peers observe the diplomatic duty not to interfere in America’s internal affairs, including immigration matters. “Immigration is an internal discussion,” he says. “We have to respect that regardless of whether it ...

The city of Richmond next week will begin offering identification cards to immigrants, regardless of whether they entered the country legally or not. The move could make the Madison County seat the first city in the country to issue such immigrant IDs -- and draw Richmond into the large and sometimes fierce national debate over immigration reform. The cards will be offered as part of a first-ever Latino citizen's police academy at a local church, officials said. Although some states give identification cards to immigrants regardless of whether they entered the United States legally, immigration experts say they are not aware of any other city or municipality in the nation that has gone ...
