Obama sending 1,200 troops to Mexico Boarder

President Obama has recently sent 1,200 troops to the Mexico boarder, mainly focusing on the state of Arizona. This troop surge in our southern states is our presidents way of responding to the growing concern of violence and crimes committed by illegal immigrants and the recent issues with trafficking of drugs and gang violence over drugs. In addition to the troop surge he will also be requesting 500 million dollars to help aid the effort of boarder control. The troops will not be permanent fixture for the southern states but are only there to fill in while the money they are so depending on is used by existing boarder patrol to train and build up their Calvary and set up new ways such as more advanced surveillance and recognisance so when the troops are removed they will be effective in the battle at the boarder.With all this military takeover the Mexican Embassy is worried that the immigrants will be criminalized along with the drug dealers which they see as unfair treatment.....as they should. This whole troops to the boarder is kinda crazy in some ways and in others completely logical. As americans as a whole we have a duty to each other when it comes to protecting our own but i do agree with the Mexican Embassy in the idea that the immigrants even with their illegal status will be unjustly criminalized and put in the same group as murdering drug dealers and not concidered as people trying to acheive a better life. Something we as americans strive for and should be sympathetic to.
