My ex-husband was deported. First they locked him up, and then the next morning, they put him on a bus with only the clothes on his back (no papers proving he was Mexican or anything) and sent him "back."
It was awful, because I was five months pregnant, and it didn't matter that we were married. Also, his parents had brought him over when he was a kid, so he really didn't even *have* a country.
The punishment was leaving a relatively comfortable life to work for something like a dollar a day on the border and depend on his family to send him some money to survive over there. He kept trying to return, but his English wasn't good, and eventually, they locked him up for two weeks.
Finally, he crossed back over with a coyote (human smuggler) and nearly died because the guy abandoned them in the middle of nowhere. He walked over a hundred miles to get to a safe place. He got back two days after our son was born.
That was the punishment. Mexico didn't care one way or the other, except not having his Mexican birth certificate could have been a problem after a while. Then they could have accused him of being an illegal immigrant there.
A man without a country....

I can't speak for other areas but in the Yuma area the "captured" illegals are put on a plane and flown home or turned over to Mexico at the border. Now, we have a border town called San Luis, AZ and just across the border there is San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora, Mexico. Our local newspaper just recently ran a week long series about illegal immigration in which they actually went to San Luis (Mexico side) and did interviews with the "local" coyotes and the illegal immigrants who gather in the town center park. The coyotes were very dismissive of any "laws" that we might pass and said nothing would keep them from bringing in illegals as the United States was their country and they had every right to be here. However, the going price per person was running between $800 to $1500 and had been upped to $2000. Now, because of the added burden of increased border patrol (quote from a coyote) problems, the price being charged per person by the coyotes was up to $3000. When interviewed, a number of the illegals said that they were going to try to make it across without coyotes as they had not planned on that much money. Most of those interviewed were not "first time crossers" as some of you seem to think. The majority were on their second or third try. Quite a number of them complained about the increased immigration enforcement and stated that it "violated their culture" and that we had no right to try to stop them. Quite a few still had the phamplet put out by the Mexican government telling the illegals how to sneak across the border, what areas to go to for water, where and how to get forged documents after getting across the border and instruction on how to avoid detection. Mexico has recently stopped handing out that particular phamplet and pulled it from their consulates after United States agencies/individuals pointed out that the maps routed the "vacationers" (as our local Mexican consul calls them) directly into the areas where the most active "coyote bandits" were attacking and robbing the immigrants and leaving them in the desert when returning to Mexico. This should clarify some one elses uncertainity about "are they treated as criminals", no, the Mexican government actually encourages this flood--after all, they get Billions sent back from these people yearly which keeps their budget afloat.

My father has a ministry where he goes to border patrol every weekend and ministers to the illegals that are kept there before the US sends them back home. A lot of illegals are from central and south America that come up through Mexico to come here. They simply get sent back and nothing happens to them from their govt. I don't honestly think their countries see them as traitors. They realize they are just trying to seek a better life.

Don't know, don't care, they can take care of themselves, not my problem, not the USA's problem, it's their country's problem. WE don't owe them a da#n thing!! WE don't have to support their freeloading butts!!
If they have any sense at all they'll work there, unite, protest, vote and make changes for a better life for themselves there. Quit waiting for somebody else to do what needs to be done and do it themselves. They shouldn't wait for the gravy train to run, they need to grow gardens, raise food and survive like OUR ancestors did when they started building up this country to what it is today. ALL Americans of the USA have worked to make this country the kind of place people from other countries are striving to get into. But, then, WE are and our ANCESTORS were STRONG men and women with intelligence, stamina, and ingenuity. I guess 'some' illegal aliens just don't have the initiative.

They are not punished, or seen as traitors, unless they are from a communist country, like China or Cuba(if they don't make it to land). Lotst of them just start saving for or planning the next trip back to the U.S.

They go BACK HOME where they SHOULD BE!!!! The ILLEGALS ( the mexicans,i KNOW of) get DEPORTED,and before the day is through,they SNEAK back across the border!!!!! Their trip BACK,is PAID FOR by the taxpayers!!!!
And,MEXICO does NOT see them as "traitors", but as a MEAL TICKET!!! the mexican government ENCOURAGES them to sneak over here,because they want the BILLIONS of U.S. dollars the ILLEGALS send down to mexico!!!
And YOU need to STOP with calling me a "f***gin racist"!!! I have NEVER called YOU anything like that, and i would appreciate it if you stop calling me that!!!

None of the above. They are put into detention and then dropped off at the border, more recently I have heard that they are sending them further south. But the government does not punish them and they are not traitors, they are fellow "paisanos" that had bad luck.

In the case of Mexico - they try crossing the border the next day and they keep on trying until they don't get caught.

Does it really matter? I don't think it does. If it does matter, is this because they broke the laws in their home countries? How ironic.
