Hey, it's teaching people to not die and to not beat their wives. I guess I'm pro-Mexican Illegal Immigrant Handbook.

"If you're arrested, don't resist, insult officials, or throw rocks or objects at them or their cars."

Sound advice, I'd say.

There's also a very lovely picture of a man hitting his significant other in front of a child.

the next reality show, who wants to be an illegal immgirant, they take 20 americans to a town 20 miles south of the border, they have to get to the border, cross it, and stay unarrested for a week after crossing the border to win 100 thousand dollars!

each contestant will be provided with the ability to record their adventure (requirement for getting the money) and 100 pesos

If capital wishes to cross national borders, it may easily and legally invest in foreign shares,stocks or bonds, transfer to foreign banks, or exchange for foreign currencies.

If corporations wish to cross national borders, they may easily and legally import or export their products or services, or components thereof. They may "relocate" so as to take advantage ("exploit"?) lower wages in third world countries.

If, however, workers (or, if you prefer "labour") wishes to cross national borders, then such an action is a threat to the entire system, and people are deemed to be illegal

Why?

I like how along with with gun, the knife, and the rock, they have a picture of a screwdriver. Why a screwdriver?

Hmmmm...........dunno.

What I do know is that day-labourers/immigrants/workers in our country/etc. should be held to exactly the same standards as any other workers. If you work in our country, using the roads, etc. paid for by our taxes, you should contribute. Thus, any worker (immigrant/day-worker/what-have-you) should be paid the same wages and should pay the same taxes as a born citizen.

Other than that, I recognize that our whole system is built on the backs of those who are willing to do the jobs most of us wouldn't.
