None of whose home countries are the land of rich and plenty of your 'Mexico of the last 35 years.'

And the number of them entering the US, legally and illegally, is increasing every year while the number of actual Mexican nationals emigrating is decreasing yearly.

If you're going to come in and complain about how no one knows anything in this forum except for you, at least make sure you get your own facts right first.

People fleeing the NT have every reason in the world to get here for a better life and the fifty+ that I have worked with personally in the last few years have all been extremely fucking happy to work construction overtime, cleaning houses, or washing dishes.

We were talking about México, but okay. That's where this lady was from. Yes, and your small pot of anecdotal evidence based on the word of some people who told you what you wanted to hear (we're like that, we Hispanics) are absolute proof of what you claim. The statistics show a significant rise in standard of living year on year.

I do not dispute the number is going up every year. That's because we're in a time where distances are shorter. Going to America is not the impossible once in a lifetime dream it was. People commute.

Granted, México is more prosperous than the countries you mentioned, but they're coming along fast. I actually speak Spanish. I actually travel around Latin America constantly, both for business and pleasure. I actually spend plenty of time in Guatemala and Nicaragua. There are countries that are way freer and friendlier than the USA. El Salvador is leading the world on crypto acceptance and is hosting the central banks of 20+ nations tomorrow to discuss creating a reserve currency to get off the US petro dollar. You need to update your knowledge about these countries from jingoistic 1980's American movies.

Are we sure she is dead and not just resting?

It's either Crystal healing power, or God healing power. And I've never seen God but I've seen plenty of crystals.

Freezing to death is a fucked up way to go.. I’ve been so close several times and that was pretty damn bad lemme tell you. This is even worse, obviously:(

I would trade her for a bakers dozen of the people who think there should be a death sentence for crossing the border improperly.
