“A person entering Mexico must report to Mexican immigration officers and to (Mexico’s equivalent of) customs. Also, persons must cross at an authorized point of entry,..."

LOL! Same to you, Consul Fernando J. Valdés Vicencio!

Sounds like a job for the Texas Minutemen!

[Jim Robinson]

Good grief. LOL

Mexico’s acting consul in Del Rio called a crossing of the Rio Grande earlier this week by two Val Verde County Sheriff’s Office investigators illegal and “unacceptable.”

Who said Mexican officials don't have a sense of humor?

Consul Fernando J. Valdés Vicencio is an arrogant slug.

Mexico’s acting consul in Del Rio called a crossing of the Rio Grande earlier this week by two Val Verde County Sheriff’s Office investigators illegal and “unacceptable.”

~SNIP~

In an interview Thursday, Fernando J. Valdés Vicencio, who is currently serving as the Mexico consul here, said Lt. Larry Pope, who heads the sheriff’s office criminal investigations division, and VVSO Sgt. James McGonagill, who is also assigned to the criminal investigations division, violated Mexican law when they crossed the Rio Grande to retrieve property stolen from the U.S. side.

“A person entering Mexico must report to Mexican immigration officers and to (Mexico’s equivalent of) customs. Also, persons must cross at an authorized point of entry, and (the two deputies) were performing acts of authority in a place where they have no jurisdiction at all,” Valdés said The old "do as I say and not as I do" ploy

[DumpsterDiver]

LOL! Same to you, Consul Fernando J. Valdés Vicencio!

No kidding. Those little dudes have real huffy attitudes.

"Also, persons must cross at an authorized point of entry, and (the two deputies) were performing acts of authority in a place where they have no jurisdiction at all," Valdés said.

“This is something that has to be dealt with at the highest levels of government,” Valdés added.

Who ya gonna call? Borderbusters?

I've actually been to Del Rio. I seem to remember the river being a little wider there than at Brownsville. I also remember that the river didn't exactly look like it had the best water for swimming, thanks to pollution and flies.

[tet68]

Maybe they were just crossing to look for work, the jobs
Mexicans won't do.

[TADSLOS]

“This is something that has to be dealt with at the highest levels of government,”

It sure does.

But, he added, he values the close working relationship members of the consulate and the sheriff’s office have built over the years and said he hopes the incident will further open the lines of communication between the two agencies.

Oh, but we were just following the fine example set by your folks coming here.

[trubluolyguy]

How very ironic.

[Americanexpat]

Screw you Valdes.

[Types_with_Fist]

Holy crap.

[dennisw]

F 'em if they don't like it. Why do we treat this cesspit as if it's a legitimate nation?

[Tacis]

THERE IS NO LIMIT TO THE ARROGANCE OF MEXICANS!!

Said consul can kiss my Texan butt.

Remember the Alamo!

[wildbill]

The ghosts of long dead Texas Rangers and their Captains are smiling tonight.

Individuals and small companies used to cross the Rio Grande to retrieve stolen cattle all the time, fighting off bandits as they rode.

It certainly seems to me that we should oblige Senor Valdes, and build a border wall. We wouldn't want this to happen again...
