what would the US response be to a few mortar rounds being lobbed across the border into San Diego ala Hamas?

Better not hit my place... but then, I'm 12 miles... I think. Do you think there would be much of a response? I mean, they *could* hit North Island, or the SEAL Base from TJ, easily, especially with mortars on the TJ hill. *shudder*

When I first moved here to SD, I lived at 3rd & IB Blvd. Right next to the Sloughs. I could see the alien heads popup and look for Border Patrol at dusk before they would start their run for the beach or the freeway. THIS WENT ON RIGHT NEXT TO A NAVY HELO BASE (Brown Field)!!! And nothing... nothing has been done.



We MUST put a stop to this! I've checked my supplies, but am seriously lacking a firearm right now. *feh*

A quick internet check shows that a mortar round might travel about 3500 yards. I'd be concerned about someone firing a few rounds then skedaddling. They'd be gone before any effective response would show up.

Your map is scary. My sister & brother-in-law live off of Dairy Mart Rd. I've seen plenty of BP down there, but they've got a lot of work to do. One night I saw what I thought was a bunch of kids on ATV's. It turned out to be BP on quads patrolling the brush around the Tijuana River.

As you can see, urban Tijuana runs right up to the border. It wouldn't be too hard to hide after firing at the US.

Well, in that case...

Git thee to a Gunnery!
