One of these types of incidents is going to blow up some day, and when it does, the U.S. populace is going to be furious that something hasn't been done to prevent this sort of thing.

You mean the same way the American public was "outraged" when Mexicans went on a high-speed car-hockey spree on California roadways and endangered the lives of American citizens with depraved impunity?

Last I saw, those illegals were rewarded with millions of dollars from our courts when they got the ass-whipping they deserved at the end of the chase.

The American public has the attention span of a puppy on crack. They didn't wake up to the dangers we face on 9/11 and you think a border clash is going to do anything?

Bottom line: it's going to take the loss of an entire American CITY for anyone to even consider doing anything meaningful on an appreciable scale.

Well you do make some valid points there. It is shameful what takes place without producing public outrage. Of course the MSM is always there to explain away any significance, with or without public figures doing the same damned thing.

"The American public has the attention span of a puppy on crack."
