I live a few miles from Swinney Switch. I went to Reynosa a couple of years back with a business associate to eat cabrito at a very nice restaurant. Wouldn’t cross the border anywhere now. I’ve got some friends who go across all the time (including Nuevo Laredo) and swear there’s no danger. When I’m in the Rio Grande Valley I always make sure I have my concealed pistole on me and an extra one in the car.

Hate to break this to you but that pistol is no match for military weaponry that both the Mex. army and the narcos have. We should not have to worry about our safety on US soil because the defense of the country is supposed to rest with the CinC. Of course, he is a vacuum on this issue, as was his predecessor. I see why we have the need for active militias, we just need to adequately arm them. A few Abrams MBTs, some Apaches, and some claymores should do it.
