Recently I spent 18 months living INSIDE Mexico. I moved there to see first hand what is causing these people to leave family and their country to risk their lives to cross the Rio Grande. I leased a ranch on the Rio Grande near Progresso Mexico and ran some cows and horses and allowed US VETERANS to come visit for free. . My idea was to do research and if ..." I would walk a mile in their moccasins"...perhaps I could discover the reason for the mass exodus of an entire population. So I lived..."BOOTS ON THE GROUND" inside Mexico and it did not take long for the truth to come out.

Daily coyotes would take refugees across right through my ranch.

Coyotes take a lady across on inter tube with all her belongings in a plastic bag so she can change into dry clothes once she is in the US thus the term WET BACCK”

This goes on day and night across the US BORDER.

The death count is staggering and unknown. Many leave home and are never heard of again. One morning a family came to my ranch asking me about their 17 yr old son who had attempted to cross last night with 2 friends. His body was never found.

Water is life and without it they die.

What force in the universe would it take to make you and I to leave our home and attempt such a dangerous trip into the unknown? Such courage. It reminds us of ourselves?.when the pilgrims crossed the sea to escape persecution and finally had our own revolution to build our own free land.

“AMERICANS” the largest “revolutionaries” of all times; we seem to have a short memory as to what language it takes to deal with dictators and tyrannical governments be it Mexico City or anywhere on earth. Corruption and evil are the same recognized by the pain, misery and poverty of the people.

“IF IT IS RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM IT IS RIGHT AT THE TOP”, General D. Mc Arthur.

Perhaps we should take a hard look at ourselves! Control of a people or a government by the rich is doomed anywhere.

More children are being counted by the Border Patrol

Worn out- exhausted , out of water and helpless---without hope or a Champion?-THEY DIE.

GENERAL GEORGE WASHINGTON said
”I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees”.

Pope Benedict said in Mexico...'At this time when so many families are separated or forced to emigrate, when so many are suffering due to poverty, corruption, domestic violence, drug trafficking, the crisis of values and increased crime, we come in search of consolation, strength and hope"..

AMERICANS I ask you....Cuantos Mas?? HOW MANY MORE?

How many more of these refugees are going to have to die before WE PUT A STOP TO IT?
