What something is “called” is of little importance when there is no difference in the treatment one receives. But then, on the other hand, it is interesting that a “civil violation” makes the “turn around” back to the country they came from a little (? or a LOT?) less expensive and complicated. Take the court system out of the process and it becomes an awful lot like herding cattle that have strayed into where they have no business being, back across the river into their own fields. Why have a judge make a ruling about something so simple? Why have that expense? Or the expense of confinement and feeding and medical care while awaiting a court date or serving time, afterwards, for such a terrible crime? Yes! It does make sense! Viva Mexico! Shame we don’t have politicians as smart and thrifty.

Can anyone translate Jennifer’s post into English or Spanish, so we can understand? What is as “dissinefor”, Jennifer? By “he asked me if it was ok the broke the law if elligals can then we can i told him no we can’t”, do you mean that every person has to respect the law, as unfair and insane as may be? A kind of “Dura lex, sed lex”?
By the way, I would like to thank Calderon for cleaning up his own backyard before criticizing Bush. This is an example to follow. Okay, the result may not be perfect and the work far from finished yet, but who are we to throw him the first stone?
And as for Cardinal, just have the South Americans go a little more north. I know a thousand of small villages in Canada who would be glad to greet some capable workers (St -Michel -Du -Lac -Long, for example, is already busy learning spanish).
