Border Patrol agents in Arizona were reportedly fired upon by a Mexican military helicopter that traveled across the border.
KVOA-TV reports that Mexican authorities were conducting a drug interdiction operation when the incident happened early Thursday morning on the Tohono O’odham Indian Nation. The Mexican chopper fired at the agents and then flew back into Mexico.

Good one.
It was not an error, this happens too often, as it did when "W" was in office.
I personally witnessed a Mexican Huey complete with door gunner flying over U.S territory, where the Colorado River is the Border, there is no way to miss that from the air, or the ground. Fortunately there was no gunfire that time.
A few months later in broad daylight, a squad of Mexican Military was caught on the U.S. side of the Colorado River, when buzzed by a Border Patrol Helicopter, they laid their guns down, and put their hands in the air. Again the excuse was that they didn't know they were in the U.S. after crossing the Colorado River.
I can show you where the border is, where they crossed in the middle of the darkest night without a flashlight.
Excellent post.
CNN Breaking News story now.
“Just as sometimes a pitcher hits a batter by error”
And sometimes someone crosses the border by accident and is put in the slammer for NO GOOD REASON.
Now it’s a matter of wondering why the US hasn’t crumbled as a nation yet.
Look around you. Whaddya see??? Crumbles!
Thanks for the clarification.
IIRC, I pinged the list for all of those articles when they were posted on FR...and added the primary keyword, as well.
“IIRC, they have shot across the border before, but not crossed over by air. Am I wrong on this?”
My SILs Step-father used to work the border between Tucson and East a few miles and he and his crew were shot at regularly but not allowed to return fire. To his knowledge, no USA personnel were ever hit.
I know a Marine reservist who worked on the border wall in Douglas, AZ. Same experience.
We’re just too darned nice for our own good, sometimes.
Shoot back!
Two separate events. He failed twice.

OT- but I don’t care. I’m so happy!
Wonderful news! The last abortion clinic in Corpus Christi,

So, you are saying the Murial Boat lift is different from the Mariel Boatlift under President Carter?
Where is information on the "Murial Boat Lift"
Reagan had NOTHING to do with the 1980 Mariel Boatlift.
BTW the immigration action of 1986 was indeed a horrible disaster. Reagan should have never trusted the evil left. It is a black mark on his Presidency.
Thanks. Since my post, I have revised my opinion. I was just initially concerned that the apology which WAS tendered had been ignored in the post....but now I see how hollow and lame that apology for the circumstance is.
Thanks for your replies. Please see my post 115. I have revised my opinion.
No blood, no foul. My ire is reserved for the corrupt Mexican government.
Where are our anti-aircraft weapons?
Understood and thanks.
“What is the purpose of the National Guard?”
Good question.
