Mexican Citizens Take Illegal Immigration Debate Into Their Own Hands…Close Down Bridge…
The border city of Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico, is seeing it’s fair share of political action today. According to news sources out of the RGV’s television outlets, citizens of this border city have created a human barrier along the Mexican side of the International Bridge across from Hidalgo, Texas. They are barring any U.S. citizen from entering Mexico. Latino ethnicity or not.Â
They are doing this in protest of the illegal immigration debate going on in Washington D.C., and reports are saying that these citizens are planning on staying through the rest of tonight making sure there actions are heard loud and clear. I’m not sure how much of an impact this will make to anyone north of Falfurrias in South Texas, but for local people, citizens and tourists alike, this makes a major dent in anyone’s plans to go across the border for cheaper priced liquor, or prescription drugs. Prices of which are normally half as much as those sold by their U.S. counterparts.Â
