Mexico Asks U.S. To Stop Deporting Serious Criminals

Last Updated: Mon, 09/27/2010 - 11:14am

In a flabbergasting request, a coalition of Mexican lawmakers has asked the United States to stop deporting illegal immigrants who have been convicted of serious crimes in American courts.

The preposterous demand was made at a recent southern California conference in which the mayors of four Mexican cities that border the U.S. gathered to discuss cross-border issues. The only American mayor who attended the biannual event was San Diego’s Jerry Sanders, evidently because his city hosted it this year at a fancy downtown hotel.

Among the cross-border topics that were addressed at the conference was the deportation of Mexican citizens who have committed violent crimes in the U.S. The felons are persona non grata in their communities, say the mayors of Tijuana, Ciudad Juarez, Nogales and Nuevo Laredo. They want U.S. officials to stem the deportation of such convicts to their cities, according to a local newspaper report that covered the conference.

To support the request, the mayor (Jose Reyes Ferriz) of Mexico’s most violent city, Ciudad Juarez, pointed out that of 80,000 people deported to his community in the past three years nearly 30,000 had committed serious crimes in the U.S. Around 7,000 had served sentences for rape and 2,000 for murder. The criminal deportees have contributed to the escalating drug-cartel violence in his city, Mayor Ferriz said, so he wants the U.S. to make other arrangements when prison sentences are completed.

If this seems unbelievable, consider that a few years ago Mexico’s government formally complained that too many Mexicans had been repatriated from the U.S. and that the entire country was overwhelmed with demands for housing, jobs and schools. Various Mexican legislators publicly chastised the U.S. for sending illegal immigrants back, explaining that the country could not accommodate the “repatriated.”

The Obama Administration seems to be heeding to Mexico’s request by openly halting the deportation of hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants. Additionally, the administration has a “backdoor amnesty” plan to legalize millions of undocumented aliens in case Congress doesn’t pass legislation to do it.

So this administration's current policy is to deport only those immigrants convicted of serious offences, yet these are the very one's the Mexicans are asking us not to send back?

And if we take them to the Southern border of Mexico (at U.S. taxpayers' expense), does anyone in their right mind believe they won't be back at the U.S. border within days?

This is a complete joke ... only it stopped being funny a while back.

It's quite staggering that the Mayor of Ciudad Juarez wants the U.S. to "make other arrangements" rather than repatriating Mexican citizens who are no longer welcome in the U.S. due to their proven criminal behaviour. Does he just think the problems will just go away? Is he really that naive?

Rather than wishing for these people to become someone else's problem, he needs to do his utmost to ensure that the Mexican government takes responsibility for its own citizens. Neither the U.S., nor any other country, can allow itself to become a dumping ground for another country's criminal element. Deportation to the country of which criminals are legal citizens is the internationally recognised end result. Mexico needs to deal with it.

The Mayor can suggest all he wants -

but until the Department of State gets involved, and actually NEGOTIATES something with Mexico (not just the Mayor of CJ) , The Mayor is just p|ssing and moaning.

and that's OK, really. He can p|ss and moan all he wants - I'm certain he does not hold any national power to negotiate a monetary settlement with the USA.

Makes for a nice press release, yes?
