Our government tipping off Mexico?

That's what it looks like, according to this story. Of course, the DHS has issued a non-denial denial (effectively, yes, we're doing it, but we're required to by international conventions). But no matter how you slice it, this is outrageous. Our own government is colluding with the government of Mexico to effectively make it easier to illegals to slip across the border, and simultaneously endangering volunteer groups like the Minutemen. Whether or not you agree with what the Minutemen are doing (I do...someone has to enforce border security, and if the government won't...), I think nearly everyone should be able to agree that our government shouldn't be in the business of endangering them by tipping off corrupt Mexican officials as to their patrol locations.

Just disgusting.
