US Begins Giving Illegal Immigrants Free Flights Home

MEXICO CITY – The U.S. government has begun flying illegal migrants caught in the Arizona desert back to Mexico under a voluntary repatriation program.

Mexico’s Foreign Relations Department says the twice-daily Tucson-to-Mexico City flights began Friday. It said Sunday that the annual summer program will run through Sept. 28.

The U.S. federal government launched the program in summer 2004 after years of record-setting migrant deaths along the state’s border with Mexico.
Authorities say the goal is to save lives and discourage repeat crossings by transporting migrants closer to their homes in Mexico, instead of simply deporting them across the border.

    Let these interloping illegals walk back the way they came in.

    Drop them from the plane over Mexico City at 15,000 ft. Give them the option of going home, or flying back across the border if they can flap their arms hard enough.

    Mexico has as much oil, if not more, than Saudi Arabia, yet the government there allows its people to live in poverty and squalor. We need to force the Mexican Government to pay for this. We don’t have the money to pay for this stuff anymore – and shouldn’t have to pay for it even if we did!!
