Probably not. And chances are, probably not primarily illegals.
WRT the latter, we don't know. Probably...

What we do know is that the Mexican President has called for "protests" in the US.

Again, is this an act of war, given her position and statements?

To me? YES.

Time to finish this.

I don't view any of the as anything remotely equivalent to war, or acts thereof.  It's protests which devolve into riots which then turn into looting.

It goes on for a bit and then stops, every time.

The foreign leader to the South has called for protests. The protests are violent.

Come again?

The Mexican President can say whatever she wants.  To me, it's DOING that I pay attention to, not words.  "We" should ignore her in my view.  There is nothing actionable anyway.  We're not going to invade Mexico because of something their President SAID.

This isn't anything like a war, in my view, not remotely close.  It's protest/looting/rioting, it will eventually end.  I think it's ending now in LA.  

Over reaction is not useful, I think.

I’m not seeing any actual reporting she called for protests?

And still not an act of war.

one of Trump's henchmen should call her, give her a reason to change her tune publicly.

She explicitly condemned violence and called for peaceful protests.

I know there ass assholes and provocateurs making the situation in LA untenable, but not enough to go to war on our neighbor.
