[proud American in Canada]

Wasn’t there a couple killed, a few years back, while they were boating or something?

Btw, Mexico, with all due respect, I believe the US won the war with you.

Deal with it.

( that being said, I may be remembering my history wrong)

Mexico, with all due respect, I believe the US won the war with you.

Yes we did, then we turned around and gave Mexico $5,000,000 to compensate them for the territories we won fair and square. Treaty of Guadelupe.

My third great grandfather fought, and was captured, in that war. His father (US AG John Jay Crittenden) brokered a prisoner swap to save him.

The couple from Oklahoma? The scoundrel who killed them died in prison this week.

You reference the American Jet Skiers murdered on Eagle Lake so their vessels could be used, once, for smuggling drugs.
