That is certainly what it looks like, since it refuses to stop (and even encourages) the massive violation of American sovereignty by its citizens.
Fox, according to Casey Wian on CNN's Lou Dobbs Tonight (March 31), "is still refusing to do anything to stop the millions of illegal aliens ... saying he won't restrict the freedom of movement of Mexican citizens."The Associated Press reports, "Mexico has long cited a freedom-of-movement clause in its Constitution as prohibiting any attempt to stop would-be Mexican migrants from massing at border towns. Former Mexican Interior Secretary Santiago Creel actually said his country would never help to secure the southern border. 'We are not going to do that,' Creel told Jerry Kammer of the Copley News Service. Creel claimed Mexico's Constitution provides for 'complete freedom of movement' for Mexicans inside Mexico. 'We can't put up a checkpoint or a customs station inside our territory,' Creel said."
Yet these statements seem contrary to the Constitution and law when the whole picture is viewed. Starting with the fact that there is more to the applicable constitutional article than just its first sentence.
Article 11 states: "Everyone has the right to enter and leave the Republic, to travel through its territory and to change their residence without need of a letter of security, passport, safe-conduct or other similar requisites. The exercise of this right will be subordinate to the powers of the judiciary in cases of criminal or civil liability, and to those of administrative authority with regard to limitations that laws on emigration, immigration and general health of the Republic, or on pernicious foreign residents in the country, may impose."
And the key of course is in the second sentence, namely "will be subordinate to" — with the General Population Law being the primary directive.
Mexico, you see, can act to secure its border with the US -- but chooses not to do so.
More to the point, laws already exist to do exactly that. Besides -- stopping the border-jumpoing would lead to social and economic pressures to reform the corrupt Mexican political system.
But Mexico instead finds it profitible to let its exces workers head to El Norte and send back billions -- and so ignores its own laws while encouraging the violation of ours.
Mr. Fox -- if you have no respect for US law, at least show some respect for the laws of Mexico.

Comments on Does Mexico Break Its own Emigration Laws?
Lets make is worth while for the "illegals" to leave. Start FINING $$ the hell out of Employers who hire Illegals. Then they won't hire them. Take one part of the issue: The employers screw the insurance companies by not putting them on payroll therefore they never show up as employees, and there is NO charge $$ wise for those employees. They don't pay payroll taxes, social security and federal, State or Local taxes. Sales tax yes, if they buy anything. Meanwhile, in construction, the builders keep charging More and More $$ for new housing but use subs that use illegals for the payroll scam. When a claim comes in: "oh we just hired them and we're working on the paperwork still"
If unemployment is at -5% (actually lower when including Walmart) we can have everyone, if they really want to, work by replacing the 9,10,11,12 million illegals here now. Heck, the days that they were marching in the streets - the enonomy seems to be running just fine. (4% of 3 mill = 12 million ) Personally, I believe we need some unemployment but if you want "0" there's an idea.
I'm sick and tired of my utility bills and household bills coming in with Spanish all over them and phoning service centers asking me in Spanish of I want to talk to some one in Spanish.
Locally, a law was passed that business owners HAD to list their business name and address "IN ENGLISH" on the outside of the building; when the cops/firemen get called they have no idea where they have to go to.
We've let it go on FAR TOO LONG!
