Body found in river buoys at Mexico border amid criticism of policy


MEXICO CITY, Aug 2 (Reuters) - A body was found stuck in a barrier of buoys installed by Texas authorities in the Rio Grande river, which straddles the U.S.-Mexico border, Mexico's foreign ministry said on Wednesday while expressing fresh safety concerns over the floating fence.

Authorities are working to identify the body found in the river and determine the cause of death, according to a statement from Mexico's foreign ministry.

The crossing is a popular area for migrants seeking to reach the United States.

The Texan government installed the barrier last month and said at the time the buoys would "help deter illegal immigrants attempting to make the dangerous river crossing into Texas."

1. A modern times morality story of inhumanity to others is a 'religious' issue

It is time to reduce many cultural-political issues down to ethics, not facts. America has a morality problem of maga proportion.

With Covid masking, talk of the efficacy of masks overshadowed talking about the morality of those who would not even try to help others. What to speak of the 'impede-ers"?
With today's Trump-cult, the time has come to call out those whose ethics and politics are immoral. Their facts are wrong, yes, but their desires are destructive. Maga-mushy-morality compasses point to wrong choices.

I am not into slitting throats like some, and don't believe personal-identity deserves death.
However I am ready to yank the unethical hearts out of some immoral chests.

2. I agree.

America has a morality problem of maga proportion.

And I’m going to remember this phrase, and steal it if you don’t mind.
