Mexican Police to Patrol NY?

Not to mention it already happens with other countries embassies and so on in the US, plus of course the UN.

Within the embassies, sure. The embassies are the sovereign territory of the state occupying said embassy. This does not apply to the sovereign territory of the host state.

But our country does indeed tell it's citizens how to avoid police and even if the nation is substitutable to bribes! Go read some of the CIA warnings on some African nations, they all but say "hey throw em a 20$ and your golden!"

That's not the same as teaching people how to sneak into a country.

In fact the only warnings I've ever seen equate to "you better learn that nations laws because if you screw up you're on you're own".

What does not apply? All I am saying is that foreign nations do exactly the same thing on US soil, within embassies and outside embassies.

Around many of the consulate building here in NYC you see security details. They check out restaurants, deal with any issues natives of their country may face in this country, in courts, banking, and a number of issues. If Mexicans approached their embassy I'm sure it has means to help them, and this is in NYC so it's not that far from their embassy.

Are they 'security details' or are they simply representatives from the embassy checking that the rights of their nationals are not violated. The former, they do not have a right to do... nothing wrong with the later.

They have security forces?? Really? Will I find a U.S. police officer or security personnel on the streets of Madrid? I don't think so.

You will and there are.

I would LOVE to see a picture of an ON-DUTY police officer on the streets of Madrid going about to protect Americans...

Define on-duty and define police officer. Are FBI and DEA agents police officers? How about CIA? What about US border patrol agents abroad? What about a US police officer on loan or visiting another countries police?

Are they working in concert with local officials or are they there on their own?

Well good for them.

America does the exact same thing in many foreign nations. I'm not sure why this is strange.

The Graphic - Guide promotes illegal immigration

Interesting site about the guide.
A couple other sites of interest, mostly concerning the matricula card. One site proclaims that while many jurisdictions have resisted pressure from the Mexican government, others have not; the matricula is now accepted by 800 local law enforcement agencies and 74 banks, as well as by 13 states for purposes of obtaining a driver’s license. Interestingly enough cards not valid in Mexico and only issued to illegals either in/or having intentions of entering illegally, but Mexico wants us (the U.S.) to accept them as valid I.D.'s. An illegal not having a card once here can go to any Mexican Consulate and obtain one.

Do they work with local officials, as in permission or conjunction with local officials.. like the Mexicans would be doing in the OP hit piece? Yes.

Do they work on their own, as in spy, help American's outside the embassy walls.. yes. They for example were around Michelle Obama when she visited the Costa Del Sol. They are also around your embassy staff outside the embassy...
