Never take the bait.

When you face an opponent who is in an inferior position, this is the tactic they use in an attempt to divert your attention.

Drink a case of Corona and piss on Mexico.

Mexican individuals, not government, have tried to block their side of the border at Nogales AZ.

How ironic.

I subscribe to the Green Valley News internet edition, not sure if you get a free peek or not, but I’ll put a link here. That’s Green Valley AZ. We have at least 1 member here living there.

Here’s a copy and paste:

Protesters in Mexico blocked the southbound vehicle lanes leading away from the Dennis DeConcini Port of Entry on Wednesday afternoon, demanding that their government take stronger measures to protect the nation from the coronavirus.

The group of citizens, who called themselves the Sonorenses Por la Salud y la Vida (Sonorans for Health and Life), parked two cars across the lanes leading out of the Mexican customs area of the port beginning at around 1 p.m.

Approximately six or seven protesters then stood in the blocked lanes, holding signs displaying the hashtag #QuedateEnCasa (#StayHome) and insisting that the federal government act “responsibly” and implement temporary border restrictions in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.

“We need to protect our population because if the problem were to worsen in our country, Mexico doesn’t have the economic, infrastructural or medical capacity to confront the situation,” protest leader Jose Luis Hernandez told the NI.

Still, he said, they weren’t asking the government to close the border — just to take stronger measures to screen people entering Mexico from the United States for the virus.

Speaking at 3:30 p.m., Hernandez said the protesters planned to block the vehicle lanes for another hour.

Municipal police and members of the Mexican military stood around the perimeter of the protest, but did not make an effort to remove the protesters or their vehicles.

Authorities turned northbound vehicles away from the port as well, though pedestrian traffic was not affected by the protest. The Mariposa and Morley Avenue crossings were not affected, either.

Meanwhile on the north side of the DeConcini port, Nogales Police Department officers detoured traffic away from the Mexico-bound vehicle lanes.

In a letter addressed to Nogales, Sonora City Manager Jorge Jauregui Lewis, the protesters demanded the implementation of the following measures:

• Restrict all non-essential travel, including non-urgent medical visits and those of Mexican citizens living in the United States.

• Allow exceptions for visitors traveling from the United States to Mexico for essential purposes, but only after they are cleared for potential illnesses.

• Allow commercial travel based on an evaluation of importance, and under the same criteria that the United States has applied to Mexico.

• That the health sector act responsibly and ensure that all immigrants deported from the United States to Mexico do not carry any contagious disease.

Hernandez said today’s protest was the group’s first action, but they were ready to block traffic at both the DeConcini and Mariposa ports of entry on Thursday afternoon if they didn’t receive a satisfactory response to their demands.

I agree, and in response we should demand all Mexicans should be tested and pass before entering the USA.

I suggest we use the S.A.T.

I don’t understand why you would be mad Mexico wants to test people trying to get in. It’s a good policy. And if the US does it; which I’m surprised if they hadn’t yet, idiots won’t have a leg to stand on when they complain.

When the swine flu or SARS was going around, air ports had thermometers scanning passengers disembarking and quarantining people who had a fever.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

I'd be happier with them asserting their sovereignty on their own Southern border first, but it's a stsrt.

This, right here.

I work with people who think that the dental care is awesome down there, and that love to vacation there.
The dental care could be free, but I’m not going to a third world shithole for medical attention. They come here for a reason...
Same with vacations. I don’t really want to go somewhere, where it’s unsafe to be anywhere other than on resort property or at the airport.

Wait till the virus explodes down there. Hernandez is correct in that they don’t have the facilities to handle it. Guess where the infected hordes are going to look to?

Since they feel that strongly they should pay for the wall to be built.
