The border needs to be guarded by heavily armed U.S. troops, as it is in Israel. Great way for young troops to learn discipline and patience. Relocate some of those bases from Washington, Oregon, Illinois, New York, Maryland, Delaware. The Blue States don’t support the military so they’ll be glad to see the bases repositioned along the southern border. A well built wall that is constantly monitored by American troops will cut illegal crossings by 99.5%.

Van Horn’s a fair distance from the border. This sounds like someone trying to evade the I10 BP checkpoint.

Well we do not need any wall here. It got great big beautiful mountains and a great big beautiful river running through them. I am not being sarcastic here, Washington does not intend on building a fence/wall/mott through this region. They plan on doing it with drones and foot patrol

These SOBs in Washington, all of them from the White House to the House of Reps, need to be drug out and attend the funeral of these troopers. There blood is on these bastards little money grubbing hands. I despise everyone of them and cannot wait until Texas is free from the anchor that holds us back.

How long do we have to be Mexico’s bitch? They laugh at us and we have been invaded.

That is it. How many other cuntries would put up with an invasion of this magnitude. NONE. Only the pu$$ies at our federal government would sit back with their thumbs up their rears and watch for decades as our country is over run by a third world shithole.

Come on TRUMP. IF you are such a deal maker, make a deal with We the People to round up these wet back grass crawling POS and seal the border and We the People will do it. OR are you just part of the problem at the SWAMP after 10 months?

Praying for him and his family.

Mr. President: Please stop tweeting about worthless Kneegro athlete shoplifters and protect our borders and border patrol.

Thank you.

A federal jury on Thursday convicted two members of a violent Mexican drug cartel in the 2011 ambush slaying of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agent, U.S. authorities said.

Five other Mexicans in the Los Zetas cartel pleaded guilty earlier to federal charges in the shooting death of ICE Special Agent Jaime Zapata and the wounding of another agent in central Mexico during a roadside attack on their car by gunmen in San Luis Potosi, a central Mexican state. All seven were extradited to the U.S. on federal charges.

“With today’s guilty verdicts, a total of seven members of the violent Mexican drug cartel, Los Zetas, have now been brought to justice for the ruthless ambush that took the life of ICE Special Agent Jaime Zapata and that injured and could have killed ICE Special Agent Victor Avila,” U.S. Attorney Channing D. Phillips of the District of Columbia said in a statement.

“With today’s guilty verdicts, a total of seven members of the violent Mexican drug cartel, Los Zetas, have now been brought to justice...”

It ain’t “justice” as long as the f*krs are still breathing!

AP’s “contribution” to this article:

“Border Patrol records show that Big Bend accounted for about 1 percent of the more than 61,000 apprehensions agents made along the Southwest border between October 2016 and May 2017.”

(Only 610+, so A-OK)

Next will be to blame Trump for doing this to increase support for the Wall.

Thanks, I don’t doubt that.

Having just checked for possible updates they’re still not releasing any more than they did yesterday.

I sure hope authorities have some good leads or have the bastards in custody, they’re being awfully tight lipped.

Thanks for the link, FRiend, your sources are most reliable.

It’s appropriate that Texas not only has the death penalty but doesn’t hesitate to use it, these turkeys deserve it when caught and tried.

Not sure though if they would be tried in state or fed court.
