Wow, totally uncalled for comment and completely disrespectful of a neighboring country. Is that acceptable manners in your society? Moderator???
As a person who has lived in Mexico for the last nine years and traveled the country for about 50 years, I wouldn't say it's a "totally uncalled for.......comment". It IS the way it IS. Sure, it has diminished somewhat in the last few years, but it is still a very prevalent activity.
And if it is disrespectful, many Mexicans also engage in this means of getting government officials "working". They are disrespecting their own country, apparently.
What planet are you on? It's Mexico.
It's poor manners. If you don't get that, that's your problem.
