Migrants defy Minutemen?
Well the MSM is actually admitting that the MMP has curtailed migrants from crossing the border. That's great news! Maybe Congress will finally decide to put the National Guard at the border? Don't count on it, just yet anyway. But here's proof the MMP is working:
The number of Mexican migrants trying to sneak into the United States through the Arizona border has dropped by half since hundreds of American civilians began guarding the area earlier this week, say Mexican officials assigned to protect their citizens.
But that doesn't mean the migrants have given up. Most remain determined to enter the United States and say they will simply find other places to cross. Mexican officials assigned to "protect their citizens?" What is that about? Protect them from who? I'm supposing they are referring to the Border Patrol, and now the MMP. Well they shouldn't have anything to fear if they came to this country "legally!"
As far as these migrants coming in through other routes, will they can try. However if this volunteer project goes well, and thus far it has, what's to say more citizens won't decide to from their own border patrol groups at various locations at the border?
Bertha de la Rosa of Grupo Beta, a Mexican government-sponsored group that discourages people from crossing illegally and aids those stranded in the desert. Grupo Beta discourages migrants from crossing the border? That's not what I've heard about that group. In fact, I believe it's the exact opposite!
I find it quite amusing that the Mexican government has "beefed up" security at their end of the border. Do they think the MMP volunteers are going to defect to Mexico?
Grupo Beta, along with armed state police officers, began patrolling the Mexican side of the border on Sunday. Oh, and how dare us decide to protect our borders! As though "we" are the law-breakers, migrants are being duped into believing we are the "aggressors."
"It's not only border patrol, but also armed civilians," Salazar said. "Don't give them the pleasure of detaining you." "I'm going to risk it and try somewhere else," said Mercado, 40, who has five children and earns $60 a week. "I have no other option. I want to be able to pay for my children's education so they don't have to go through all this." And another thing, what is a 40 year old man doing with 5 children when he can barely support himself? Do they not practice birth control down in Mexico? Are there no condoms to use when that urge comes up in the hot Mexican weather?
Oh yeah, he wants to "educate" his 5 children. Yeah at who's expense, ours? It sure isn't going to be at his expense. Hell most American families have a difficult time educating their own children who are born here and didn't come here illegally!
