APNewsBreak: US, Mexico disagree over border fence

McALLEN, Texas (AP) — An agency that monitors the U.S.-Mexico boundary is agreeing to a U.S. proposal to build border fence segments in a South Texas flood plain, a move Mexico opposes.

The decision by the U.S. International Boundary and Water Commission comes despite objections from its Mexican counterpart. Mexico argues the fence would deflect floodwaters to its side of the Rio Grande and violate a bi-national treaty.

The Associated Press on Tuesday obtained a letter the commission sent to U.S. Customs and Border Protection noting it will not oppose the project. The commission says its analysis found that the fence proposed for three areas in South Texas would not be a significant obstruction to river waters. Half of the 14 miles proposed would be in the flood plain.

We shouldn't. To hell with those mestizos

Mexicans should be caring more about drug trafficking crossing the border.

And we care about Mexico's input because... ?

My advise would be this: Mexico doesn't agree with the border fence ? So they don't agree with the border either. Chuck out the Mexicans and make Sonora the 51th state. And be sure to add Chihuahua as well. Baja California can be integrated into California.

Illegal immigration from Mexico is 100% the fault of the U.S. government. They have displayed time and time again that border security is not a big priority for Washington. They have the power to completely to seal the border shut with troops but they don't wanna offend immigrants from Mexico and central americans living in the usa.

As long as the border wall is built inside US jurisdiction/ territory they have no say..
