They knew the risks to go to Mexico. You can't feel sorry for anyone who takes that risk for nothing more than fun and pleasure.
Where is Black Jack Pershing now that we need him......
......lets get 'punitive' on they @sses!
No real argument from me. However, it doesn't make it right to kidnap someone because they could afford to go on a hunting trip, either. Or, does it? If so, then maybe we could start grabbing people on this side of the border who go on nice trips. Hmmmmm.....
Why go to Mexico to hunt?
What we need to do is eliminate the borders and form some sort of an "American Union". Maybe even build a super highway from Mexico to Canada directly through the heartland of the U.S. Then things like this won't happen.
Now THAT is a valid question.
When I think of Mexico, I immediately think 'Oooooh, deer season is coming!'
Lots of people in Texas have grown up hunting not only here, but also going hunting in Mexico, not just deer, but ducks, and other stuff. It wasn't always kidnap central, and for the most part the express kidnappings happen in cities, not on private ranches.
Did you forget the "sarcasm" tag?
Surely you aren't serious!
Yet we allow people to enter illegally into our country from Mexico and you can bet the Dems will do NOTHING to stop them or to protect this country!
My neighbor legally immigrated from Mexico. He lived in Mexico City. Every once in awhile he goes back to visit.
We discussed me going on a trip there and he advised against it, he said it was too dangerous now. Said he even gets worried when he goes back.
He always jokes: "The problem with Mexico is, God put Mexicans there."
Ha ha ha. Never heard that one! That is too funny!
Always time for something new.
Did I really have to add a sarcasm tag? I know it's early, but come on.....
He's a great guy, great neigbor too. He says we need to fix the border and stop the illegals from running across.
He also told me about how bad the violence and crime is near Mexico City, how they target people, especially if they know they are Americans.
He told me they'll not only abduct people, they'll abduct your dog and hold it for ransom. hahahahahaha...
"Desperado...
Well don't let any compassion get in the way of your feelings........
I actually know someone who had their dog abducted in Acapulco..a golden retriever who looks like Duke in the Bush Bean Commercials on television..he paid the ransom-I think it was only $125.00
This administration is a Public Relations DISASTER.
How many of us could have been creative in making the case:
For invasion without WMD?
That WMD WERE found everywhere, including sarin-tipped missiles, mustard gas, etc?
That Saddam attempted to hide military assets in the vast deserts of Iraq, including entire MIG fighter jets, etc?
That WMD were moved to Syria with Russia's fingerprints all over?
That collateral deaths of Iraqi civilians were the direct consequence of harboring terrorists, and if you don't want to die by American bomb, you don't associate with terrorists.
That the United Nations is corrupt from the head down, and has no moral authority to intervene in America's defense.
That Hans Blix and co. are Socialists on a mission, whose credibilty needed to be destroyed.
That the NYTimes needed to be prosecuted for treason.
That the Geneva Convention guided rules of warfare for signatories ONLY, and that since terrorists did not abide by it, America would NOT unilaterally adhere to it.
That detainees in Gitmo would not be given Korans by unclean Americans wearing gloves (WTF??????).
That documents found (think jveritas) implicated Saddam conclusively in much of the above?
Instead, the RINO administration was cowardly, inconsistent and incoherent.
The White House rolled over, installed a buffoon as spokesman, made nice with Pootie-Poot, backslapped Kennedy et. al. and advanced a Socialist domestic agenda, invited Clinton into the family and gave him a platform to rebuilld his legacy in the eyes of the world, chastized Israel for defending itself against terrorism, fought a politically-correct limited war in Iraq instead of employing overwhelming force with extreme prejudice, left the borders wide open to the south, tried to sell softie Harriet Myers as a Supreme, and otherwise FUBAR.
And people wonder why WE lost the election?
This administration did not lead, so no one followed.
This administration did not fight back, so every punk Liberal, Eurofag, Green, Mexican, journalist, celebrity, takes a free shot without fear of retribution.
This administration is endangering every American with their passivity and impotence.
