Just look at the poverty Mexicans have to leave to emigrate illegaly to the U.S?

People are idiots. Did you see all the answers? People probably didn't even look at the link, and they think you are giving the illegals sympathy.

Yes I saw the pictures, and some of the pictures looked just like any major city in the US. But it only showed the rich parts. In Mexico you are either horribly poor, right in the middle middle class, or billonaire rich. There is no inbetween of any of them. The people that illegally cross our borders are the horribly poor.

Then it is time that the Mexican people rise up and have a revolution, and overthrow that government, after that they can "petition" the U.S. and apply for statehood, and become a 51st state, this would eliminate all thos problems, Mexico has a lot of resources, but not the ability to exploit it.

Khali sucks

They can came here all they want - just do it legally! Illegals don't pay taxes, so we have to pay theirs for them!

It takes initiative and intelligence to sneak across the border. People with initiative and intelligence are needed by Mexico to stay in Mexico to build Mexico up.

i saw no poverty. i saw beautiful homes, and expensive stadiums. they need to leave if they are not legal.

Mexicans do not have it easy, but they allow their politicians to rule as they do. Until they stand up and do something about it in a united way there will not be a change and we are not responsible. I certainly spend enough of my dollars travelling there on vacation and employ enough of them......until they say enough is enough they can do nothing else than try to find a better living in a place where their voting and all that have not counted and they are merely living off what us and our ancestors have fought for

Illegal is illegal, they're NOT welcome here. Legal immigration has made this nation great, illegal immigration will eventually financially destroy us.

Poverty creates poverty.. Leave the middle class alone.. I don't want to be poverty stricken in the future. That is most likely what will happen if we do not stop illegal aliens..

They should stay home and obey the law.

Coming here makes them criminals.

What part of "obey the law" is hard to understand?

wow they are doing much better than any american ! deport them all
all the new buildings they dont need to come here for work !

Yes, they have poverty there thanks to their corrupt goverment. But why should they be allowed to come here illegally for us to support when they have to get government assistance for their healthcare? They have healthcare, and I do not. I work 56 hours a week too and pay my taxes. They are being compensated and protected for committing a criminal act.

You think Mexicans are the only poor people?

America itself also has a lot of poor and disenfranchised (something some conservatives and pro-illegal idiots dont seem to realize)... the problem here is that illegals are taking away resources that should go first to the American citizens.

Also there are many millions more people who are 20 times poorer than the average Mexican (and perhaps more humble and deserving to enter the USA)... are you saying the Yanks should let them in too?

What I am getting from you is this:
1.) America is the world's provider and caretaker of the poor (ABSOLUTELY FALSE) and
2.) Being poor gives you the license to break laws and commit crime, so long as it leads to a "better life" (ABSOLUTELY FALSE)

And if it is so poor in Mexico btw... why arent Mexicans revolting against the government? I mean there are some Mexicans who still love their country enough to do that... are there?

I'd like to live in one of those "low income" houses,they are nicer than what I'm living in now.

Love that post, I asked the question before, about poverty in Mexico. I wanted to know how many people died each year to starvation form lack of food, how many people were homeless, etc .. And I had a ton of people go off on me and get all aggressive, but received no posts... I think I see why now, perhaps Mexico, is not the hell hole they make it out to be .

I am sick and tired of countries not taking responsibility for there own people. Yes the U.S is a great nation, I say lets invade Mexico, over throw there corrupt government and expand the U.S power.

justme

bull crap mexico has lots of things they have gold mines tin mines silver mines titainium and oil fields. they are not poor the only thing poor in mexico is the bad administration and corrupt govermnet officials. taking bribes and not paying a fair wage to their people. if mexico is simple a corrupt badly managed country. look at veniwalia they have oil and are part of opec they aren't poor so why is mexico always whinning.

My opinion is that we have just as much poverty of our own. I don't feel any more sorry for Mexico's poverty than I feel for our own. Is Mexico looking after our poverty stricken people? Why do they expect us to look after theirs? Mexico has as many well to do people as there are in the USA, percentage-wise, so I don't think we should be expected to look after the poor of Mexico. They can afford to look after their own poor, they would just rather allow the USA to do so for them.

Looks like they're doing pretty all right for themselves, and that's kind of the point: Mexico needs to take care of its' own...instead of trying to finagle new ways to get the american taxpayer to foot the bill for all of it...

lakay

didn't look all that bad, of course we know they have their slum areas, but so do we, in every city, big or small, we all have our poor areas. no matter where your at your need to work to better your life, not run like cowards to a country your not wanted in and breaking the law in the process!!

Pichi

True, the pictures you referenced show some primary cities in Mexico, and the best areas of those cities, with a few exceptions.

Yes, there are rich mexicans!! Of course there are! And there are mexicans that live decently, even if they are lower income, and dont struggle hand to mouth in poverty. But that is like taking an aerial view of Beverly Hills or Simi Valley and saying, look, there are no poor people or homeless people in America! We all know that isn't true.

I have been to Mexico, and I have seen just a bit of the vast poverty that exists in many parts of that country.

I do not condone or support illegal immigrants. I believe that the way to go to any new country is the legal way.

But come on, be realistic. Don't try to con people into your point of view using one reference to those that are better off! At least present things accurately and fairly.

swdshmeatballs

if they have to leave there is a legal way to do it idiot

Erika H

There is poverty - many places. They should work together to eliminate it.

Julia B

If they are illegal, they should go back! If not then welcome to the neighborhood. What would happen if an American went on Mexican TV and said how proud they were to have broken the law?

soulsearcher

Lovely, the french tourist did what in the end? I cant read the rest of the caption. Nice shots. Nice job you have.
WOW! I guess you hit a nerve, I cant believe all the rude, idiotic responses you got. Facinating. Just keep flying and keep shooting. There will always be immigrents that just keep coming. And everyone can whine about it all they want. Even some Mexicans dont want illegals coming to the US.

Wow those are some really nice pictures....you really have a talent
