All the more reason first for a wall of armed citizens. Then build the border fence.

A DRUG gang has threatened to kill foreign journalists who report on the violence between rival cartels and security forces along the US-Mexico border, media and US officials have said.

Wow, this is right out of "Win Friends and Influence People" or like that pod monster on Aqua Teen Hunger Force: People like me. Because I force them to. With violence.

“How long before the drug cartels start assassinating elected US officials?”

When we start to actually build the fence and enforce our immigration laws.

” The US government...said it would try to protect US journalists working in Mexico.”

That wins the “Oh, Yeah?” Award for this month.

How long before our United States have been so undermined by this flow of criminals over the border that anarchy erupts?

What’s different now between those Mexican drug cartel gangs vying for control of the border areas and those foreign fighters streaming over Iraq’s borders with Syria and Iran and vying for control there?

They are intent on entering the country illegaly and will murder anyone who stands in their way.

We'd better build a wall to help curb their routes, and help save lives, on both sides of the border.

Not a priority on el presidente Jorge's list, but I'll bet a million bucks he has a fence (and armed guards) around his "ranch".

Assassinating your best customers is generally bad for business. You'd think these cartels would know that...

Why would they kill off their biggest customers/enablers? Piss test politicians/lawmakers and you'll see what I mean. Blackbird.
