Our borders were sealed after 9/11/2001. No wall, no troops, just the Border Patrol told to do it.

A year or so later the residents along the border complained about the security and they slacked off.

Wonder if they will also sue Kalishnikov, SKS and every other 3rd world gun manufacturer out there?

We should be suing Mexico.

The US should sue the Mexican government for not controlling the cartels.

That may be the excuse promoted by media but I sincerely hope people don't think that is why there is less security. The main reason is all about votes and dollars - basically politically driven.

It's not about winning the case. It's an attempt to bankrupt the gun industry through a thousand papercuts via legal fees and legal defense costs. It's interesting that Mexico's lawsuit coincides with many democrat states also passing laws directed at repealing gun industry immunity and opening them up to lawsuits. It's not a coincidence, this is a planned tactic funded by the liberal elite.

Private companies cannot possibly compete financially with government and state funded lawsuits. I would fully expect Mexico was enticed to take this action by our own government.

No, but the cartels control the Mexicans.

Living proof that you don't have to be Mexican to do any of those - you just have to WANT to work.

The want has partly been killed by the pay.
30 years ago when hiring Wets was purely a financial decision. That has driven a lot of folks away from the trades, too little reward for a young guy to go learn.

Locally, there is almost no brown construction, conditions here are different. I’m told by local union drywallers that the union is hiring wets on the jobs they work in Pittsburgh. $50/hr+ Benny? Things have changed for someone willing to sweat.

Seems to me that most young guys just want to sit at keyboards - not sweat.
There a few exceptions, but the few that want to work, are already up to their eyeballs IN work to be done.

I've lost count of the fellows that told me they'd work for cash only. (Ranch labor)
Because otherwise they'd lose their "disability".

I'm sorry Texas, but I would make 50 miles of the border so radioactive that it would be 1000 years before anyone could cross.

The U.S.A. should annex Mexico and have a much smaller southern border to control..........

Then annex Canada to offset the number of new Mexicans.
