We need to man our borders, end of story. If Mexico doesn’t like it, tough beans. They can’t control there population, we will have to. This is getting dangerous and it’s been bad even in my mothers neighborhood with MS-13 gangs. And that’s in Montgomery County, MD. Not a border town :(

“Let’s not jump to conclusions. We need to understand that America has acted arrogantly in the past and our chickens were bound to come home to roost. I am sure that Mexicans also believe in Mexican exceptionalism so we should just view this as an exception. Oh, and Sarah Palin is a doo doo head.” - 0dumbanddumber

I take comfort in the knowledge that this cultural misunderstanding will not be used as an excuse for mean spirited anti-immigrant racist retaliation.

It was early this morning when I read here that IEDs may soon be used in Mexico as a terror weapon. Its getting to be a very unstable place.

Just what is the problem? This is explainable and reasonable. Maybe the mexos were just hoping to rely on our bomb-defusing expertise. They love the “gringos” now that nobama and his minions are in power. People need to lighten up and give reasonable consideration for the historical suffering of the proud mexican peoples.

obama voters must be wondering why obama has failed to make ‘the world live as one’. /sarcasm

Give peace a chance?

I don’t think so.

It’s more like “Give feces a chance.”

With all I have read about the problems on th border, Nuevo Laredo just might be the most dangerous town in Mexico.
Another location might indicate terrorists of the Arab variety, like a tourist attraction or Mexico City.
Not here. These terrorists are of the narco persuasion and their powdery white bricks are literally to die for.
They go through Police Chiefs like a kid does Pez.

Boy..Obama sure has made us all safer.../sarcasm. Let’s see..we have Putin re-newing the old soviet empire today...a suspicious plane crash of the entire Polish government and military brass...Israel being surrounded by terrorist jackals with Obama’s approval..Iran making fun of Zero and building their bombs...Qatar dipomats causing bomb scares on US planes and cracking jokes about shoe bombers as he goes to visit an AQ terrorist...and the destruction of our nuclear capacity to protect ourselves. All this in just a week.

Obama’s on a roll.

It’s open season on America and our allies now that Obama has told the world he wont defend us.
