It was back in March of this year that I warned everyone that we will soon be reading about Americans being murdered on Falcon Lake by Mexican drug Cartels if the Obama does not send either the military or at least the National Guard down there. I was specifically reporting to you about professional Bass Fisherman Richard Drake (pictured to the right) being harassed by the pirates, as he was chased into American waters. (I linked to the article if you wish to listen to Richard tell a reporter about the incident that could have ended the same way for him as it did for David Hartley.)
Well my warning has proved correct, because they have now shot and killed an American who was enjoying a day on the lake with his wife. I have learned that they were preparing to move away from the area due to the increased violence. However, they decided to get one more day of Jet-Skiing in on the lake before heading out. David and his wife, Tiffany, were riding Jet-Skis back from the Mexican side of the lake when approximately six gunmen approached in two boats and opened fire.

American Shot & Killed by Mexican Pirates on Falcon Lake, Texas

Declare war on Mexico??? This administration has declared war on Americans!
True, sadly, but very true.
Not this Administration.
I did hear a little something about some Special Forces and some Predators being “released” from duty in Iraq. Maybe they could be used.
Just a thought.
Obama does’t give a flying crap about some white guy getting killed, whether by Mexicans or by anybody else. Give me a break.
Meanwhile, Obama does absolutely nothing and says absolutely nothing.
This government will declare war on “teabaggers” before it does jack-squat about Mexican incursions or murders in the US.
You got that right.
>>> When will we declare war on Mexico?
You want to go to war over what yet remains an unconfirmed scenario?
The wife claims pirates killed her husband. Maybe it’s true, or maybe it’s another case like the lady who claimed black thugs killed her husband when it was she herself shot and murdered him.
I just keep wondering how she was able to stop and try to recover the body as she claimed, when she was in gun range of the same bloodthirsty pirates. Seems like 6 gunmen in two boats for no reason attacking gringos would have just as easily been willing and able to deal with a second stationary target.
The story has a wrong feel to it. We’ll see.
Many people on this board can’t get it through their heads that these Mexican thugs don’t need a reason to kill an American. Just being an American is enough to get you shot. IOW, they’ll shoot you for the personal enjoyment of it.
“The story has a wrong feel to it. We’ll see.”
I thought so too.
(too bad.....no “racist gringo” here, there was a witness)
Hartley did tell authorities after the shooting she got help from a man on shore. The Good Samaritan told deputies he saw the Mexican boats chasing her into US waters. CHANNEL 5 NEWS spoke to the man who stepped up to help Tiffany in those first terrifying moments after her husbands murder.
The Good Samaritan wants to remain anonymous because he fears for his life. He was on the west side of the lake. He goes there once a week, but for some reason he went twice this week.
For him it was just another day on Falcon Lake. The sky was clear, and there were people out having fun. Then, out of the blue he saw a jetski being chased by a boat. Everything would change for the Good Samaritan when he heard Tiffany Hartley rushing toward him. As she sobbed she told him her husband had been shot.
Sounds like a formula for a triple-murder. What's up with all that?
Maybe it’s because I live in the northeast, but I couldn’t imagine venturing anywhere near the Mexican border. I see how they behave up here, and couldn’t imagine what they’d be like on their “home turf”.
It makes the headlines when a border guard returns fire and kills a Mexican national. But next to nothing when a Texan gets off’d be Mexican pirates. Doesn’t match the media agenda and therefore is not news!
