Why is there no pressure put on the Mexican government about illegal immigration?

There is a lot of noise being made about illegal immigration .Why does the Mexican government get a free pass ! It is almost as if people are afraid to call the Mexican government to task about illegal immigration .The Mexican government seems to say to it own citizens to JUST GO AWAY ! They export their economic problems to American !The starve or leave policies of the Mexican government are wrong ! I think the law ,just passed in Az.will eventually be enforced once the supreme court gets involved .If America come down on illegal immigrants without going after the Mexican government would be wrong !The Mexican government is at ground zero as far as illegal immigration is concerned .America ,for the Mexican government, is the perfect solution to Mexico's problems and IT IS THE WRONG SOLUTION TO MEXICO'S PROBLEMS !

Update:

doin! your reply has nothing to do with holding the Mexican gov.responsible for what it should be doing for its citizens .what are you talking about >it has nothing to do with judging somebody's race .I understand that you and others are sensitive about immigration issues .I have NOTHING AGAINST ANYONE ! To the point that I can,I do understand why they illegally come here .People have to live ,where they can make a living !

Update 2:

I know that there are other countries that have people who illgally come 2 America but the Mexican gov.is the one that wants to run U.S immigration laws ! and have a immigration law that is very strict on illegal immigrants !That is why I am talking about the Mexican gov. they brought my attention to them because of their ACTIONS !

Update 3:

ahupakab : it may be that they feel powerless to change their gov.I don't think that any of them are cowards ! It takes a lots of guts to leave home and cross a desert and deal with crooks to come to America.to leave or stay and starve may be the driving force behind illegal immigration .That makes the gov.look as if they don't care about their own citizens !

Update 4:

chuck, you seem to think that ALL illegal immigrants are Mexico's convicts .THAT AIN'T NO WHERE NEAR BEING TRUE!

I know some people who came here illegally,for the most part they are just normal people ,who just ,happen to be here illegally.I think that it is unfair to label ALL of them that way.There are some criminals in the mix but I think that we must be careful not to us act racist and paint them all with the same brush as we go through the process of amnesty or deportation .The immigration laws will be enforced but its going to take a little more time to work things out .

    We have learned that the Mexican government will take no accountability when it comes to things they are doing wrong. What can we expect from a country that doesn't even have clean drinking water or bribe police officers. The Mex. will never do anything to make it stop because they receive remittances from the citizens and do not have to do a thing.

    'I think the law ,just passed in Az.will eventually be enforced once the supreme court gets involved'

    No it wont, your infringing on peoples rights. People are not guilty until proven innocent. Being of a different ethical background doesn't make you guilty. It only does if your racially judging a person.

    Its not americas problem for other americans in other parts of the world. Sorry immigration doesnt work that way. Where ever americans end up, thats the other countries problem.

    The Mexican government mi amigo are losing all their murderers, rapists. pedophiles, drug dealers, and gang leaders to the United States. Less problems they have to worry about. They are losing all the people who have 20 children in 8 years that continue to impoverish the country. Now if i was Mexico i would see a way to recover from the poverty by allowing these disgusting things cross the border into the US so why should they care.

    The Mexican government would just call you racist for assuming that all the illegals are from THEIR country alone. When in fact a lot of central American countries contribute to the problem. So we would need to address all the central american nations.

    Mexico's government is well aware of whats happening but they are just too busy counting the money they steal from the country. that's why mexicans run all over the place to find a new home.

    Cause the mexican government don't want it's citizens , that's why they run away from their problems instead of manning up and taking care of their country.

    They don't care about their country or they would be there fixing the problems, not running away like cowards.

    I think the United States should cut off any aid to Mexico and other countries that we seem to have a huge illegal population from and those countries should start paying Foreign Aid!

    We need to vote the pro illegal and pro more immigration people in Congress. November is close, so hopefully we can vote these idiots out.

    They do nothing to stop or enforce illegal immigration. They are the problem.
