Thank you for posting that. Frankly, every American who lives in Mexico should watch it.

Thanks for the reality check. Not too many BN's have
much to whine about. That always spooked me being
around desperate people, they may be forced to do
things outside their norm morals. I feel for them

The video is only about 30 minutes and well worth it.
People who find it uncomfortable might wish to donate to the places that feed these people. When I drive to San Diego I have seen the breakfast place
full to overflowing just trying to feed hungry people who need help Help them if you can. It is Father Chava soup kitchen "Salesianao" though I
don't know what that means. Just do a Google search to find a way to help.

Salesiano is the order of priests who typically run the catholic schools for the church.

Many good people reduced to savagery. Sad, very sad. No easy fix to the problem. I hope MX is providing good education to the kids so that
subsequent generations have more of a chance to contribute and receive for their efforts.

Interesting video.
This hits close to home on many different fronts with my family.
Deportation is a necessity that affects so many on both sides of the border.
Tijuana's burden is not fair and I agree that if we are going to deport them, they should distribute them equally across the country.
This is sad true, as well as the rejection at the consulate of the 1000's of people who are applying each day at $160 a shot.
I like emphasis on the need for the Mexican politicos to take care of their people as this is not the fault of the US CBP.

How many have been deported in lieu of incarceration. Many of these river dwellers are less than society team players.

The guy I know that's been deported 3 times served his US sentence first, then they deported his dumb azz back to TJ.
This is the guy that got really drunk in TJ, told the border agent at the line that he lost his wallet, and the guard let him BACK INTO the USA. This
was in 2003/2004. He then went on to rape an under age girl, do more US time, and is now in TJ again.

Many, I'm sure, saw a video of one of the deported, sent
back from San Diego after a DUI. I know a couple CHP Cops
who say the Border Patrol will not come pick up undocumented
the CHP apprehends unless the # is 8 or more,
this is in an area
a ways from the border

Alot of these people are O.T.M.'s. Mexico could stop this by securing their southern border, and preventing people from coming north on the "Beast".

...so many have much higher intentions,but end up getting deported for minor infractions from a stable,productive life NOB,,,and end up with nothing
but desperation and despair.
...I recall in the 80's when Californica required all vehicles to be fully insured...the law got repealed quickly once many legislators realized their
'help' wasn't coming
