Kalipornia is going to the dogs.

When I turned 15 my dad told me I had to go downtown and take a *test* to become a citizen. I really didn't give it much thought and went downtown to do it. The thing that makes this all so weird is that I remember a lot of other kids thinking this was all so *odd*. We grew up in the US and went to school in the US but we had to go to court to become legit. Very surreal to say the least. Kinda felt like I was going for the super duper SAT's or something.

Now here's a kicker.... my grandma is native american. I guess technically she's native north american :)

Sounds like a win-win situation for both countries...

I don't think Mexico would want the PRK unless they could weed out all the wackos and send them to (insert your least favorite country here).

They want our factories. And our jobs. This startegy they ar eusing now is more direct and NAFTA accelerated it vastly.

Just to nudge this back on topic... Von Braun and his team of German Terror Rocket developers (some probably on Nazi war crimial lists) were brought into the US illegaly, and had to do a bit of a dance later to phony up leagal entry and get US citizenship.

Yes, but it was our government that brought them here in the first place.

I would rather they be deported.

Did you know INS has TEAMS of busses taking illegal Mexican imigrants back accross the border every day 24/7?

Did you know the net inflow is an order of magnitude higher than the bureucratic and failed outflow. And the outflow costs are so staggaring they refuse to pay for simple fences along the border, which illegal immigrants don't complain about because the fences are too effective of means to keep them out. Return the border to nature they say, using every wildlife claim imaginable: turtles, rabbits, coyotes, squirrels, fish, even a wide variety of snake and lizard reptiles.

And it works on our government.

There's reports from ranchers (southern AZ) of trash and human waste from border crossers. On the otherhand there's also dead bodies of those without enough water. It's a terrible situation, no matter the point of view.

Hum...Mexico must have changed a whole lot since the last time I was in Tiajuana or Metamoros. I thought both were pits. ;-)

I just saw in the paper that because Kagafojia is allowing everyone and anyone to have driver's licenses, us US citizens might have to soon carry a passport even for a day trip.

Thanks guys.

Tiajuana is a pit.

Mexico has history, culture, true architecture, and the people are just nice. Ie not Americanized.

Living conditions are modest to an extreme, but that makes you a seeming millionaire when you arrive. I also suggest you hand with a local buddy just like you do in rocketry.

I suggest some of the bigger mid-sized towns far from the US border.

I hope you enjoy food, Tequila and beer.

Hey Jerry, cut the BS. Several of my co-workers spend months/year in Mexico, living in gated housing and not venturing off the beaten path. One was mugged right on his doorstep, so cut the tourist bureau crap, I know better.

None of what I posted refutes what you correctly posted:

Might I suggest your Mexican "buddy" be middle-upper class.

IMO,Americans ARE nice,the ones in small towns where everyone knows each other,the problem is when population is so large that people don't know each other,and degenerates into "me first,F-you" behavior that they can get away with.Where people assimilate into 'Americans',unlike where there are separate 'cultures' that are apart from each other,only interacting when they MUST. And this is not just in Mexifornia,either.America is no longer a 'melting pot',IMO. That's why Spanish has become America's other language.
