Mexican presidential candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) called for mass immigration to the United States during a speech Tuesday declaring it a “human right” for all North Americans.
“And soon, very soon — after the victory of our movement — we will defend all the migrants in the American continent and all the migrants in the world,” Obrador said, adding that immigrants “must leave their towns and find a life in the United States.”
He then declared it as “a human right we will defend,” eluniversal.com reports.
While the election is not until July 1, Obrador is by far the frontrunner.
Bottom line sooner or later if you want to keep the Constitution and what is left of the Republic it is going to take violence.*********************************

But an army of illegal invaders is something quite different. End NAFTA, close the border. Sending all of our auto and electronics production to Mexico hasn’t improved anything, the delivery of those products back to the US only created uncontrollable smuggling routes for drugs, illegals and other shit we don’t need.
Start building that stuff in the US again, I’ll gladly pay twice the cost of a TV made in the US. Maybe we can get Detroit back to work again making cars.
I’m thinking Trump should take the rhetoric from the North Korea playbook and threaten to end the Mexican regime. That would make them sit up and take notice.
Early in my Army aviation career, I was flying experimental radar jamming gear between Libby AAF at Fort Huachuca to Laguna AAF at Yuma Proving Grounds, Arizona. That was the early Spring of 1983. Used to fly over the desert north of Ajo, Arizona and during night operations would see illegals crossing the desert. We’d radio Border Patrol and occasionally orbit the location until the immigration folks could arrive.
What made that area so interesting was it was the Luke Air Force Base bombing range. I always wondered if some of those illegals ever expired in that area due to heat or US Air Force bombing training.
We have been a safety valve for Mexico for decades. Their oligarchic government doesn’t have to do anything for its people, and the more ambitious go North. Exporting any potential for change, ever. WIN for the Mexican government, WIN for Democrats, WIN for Republicans. WIN for social justice warriors.
I particularly like the deafening, years-long silence of Mexico’s bishops on MEXICO’S failure to improve the lot of their people; and the incredibly stupid statements of American bishops on the subject. (As a Catholic, I get to talk like that…)
Ed Abbey once said that we should give a rifle and a case of ammo to every illegal we send back. Let THEM sort it out.
I say we build the wall and empty all of our super-max prisons and send all the criminals down to Mexico, they’ve sent their felons for years, I say it’s our turn to return the favor.
I had Edward Abbey for a semester English Literature class at the University of Arizona (Spring Semester 1981). He was a guest “Professor”. One of the best classes I ever took. He was in the process of moving to Oracle, Arizona during that period.
At the time when I signed up for the class, I didn’t fully understand his fame. We did have a common theme between us. I spent a month at Arches National Monument, Moab, Utah, in July 1976 with a Boy Scout Troop, picking up trash, stocking portapotties and helping mark hiking trails.
Meanwhile, 18 mayoral candidates (and something like 120 political candidates) have been killed in Mexico in the run-up to the country’s 1 July elections.

Imagine being the poor bastard who has to carry a rusty old M1 Carbine and a 1911 to protect against guys armed with AKMs and ARs (plus G3s, Galils, M4s, FX-05s, &c. “liberated” from the Mexican army and police).
