Felipe Calderone wants to protect the rights of “migrants”

Does Mexican President Felipe Calderone ever listen to himself speak? The latest bit of nonsense comes after a 15 year old Mexican citizen was shot and killed by U.S. border patrol agents. The boy’s group came across the border and some were detained. When this happened, they began hurling rocks at agents, who needed to defend themelves.

The group came into the United States illegally, then started assaulting federal agents. Despite this, Felipe Calderone says Mexico “will use all resources available to protect the rights of Mexican migrants.”

Did I miss something? These individuals crossed the border illegally, then assaulted the men and women responsible for enforcing our laws. Calderone should be happy that U.S. agents showed as much restraint as they did.

Someone needs to tell Felipe Calderone that the United States doesn’t own anything to Mexico. We’re not under any obligation to take their citizens, and we will not have our laws called into questions by foreign countries. Especially when that country has more stringent laws than our own.

The perfect person to address this situation would be the President. Unfortunately, we are currently stuck with a man who seems to favor open borders and has a disdain toward border protection. I still haven’t heard any comments from Barack Obama on this topic, but I’m sure he will find a way to blame the border patrol and apologize to the lawless Mexican citizens.
