Why is it more fair for Mexicans because they only have to swim the Rio Grande rather than the Atlantic or Pacific?

Looking at your old home town, it's amazing that the Houston Pols bend over backwards to kow tow to the illegals there. I guess they feel they will lose the local Latin vote if they don't.

I have wondered about the Black influx there from New Orleans hurricane. I know that many have stayed and contributed to the local welfare and crime rate. Have you heard anything about it?

"Mexicans because they only have to swim the Rio Grande"

There's not much to the Rio Grande. More like jump across it, most of the time. In some parts of the country it would be designated a stream or a rill or the runoff from somebody washing their car.
