Mexican army soldiers have been known to accompany drug mules to protect them from other drug mules. They have come as much as nine miles into US territory. They get paid a ton for this extra-curricular work.
But we usually ignore this, because, believe me, we DON’T want to get into a shooting situation. The rest of the Mexican troops would naturally be livid if their friends get shot at and/or killed. And then we would have REAL trouble along the border.
So de-escalation is the better way to go.
Care to explain why you think it is best to ignore the armed intrusions by a foriegn state?
Sounds like a good way to properly close the border to me.
No sir. Kill them until they have had enough. That is all that culture understands. I'm married to the culture. You don't have a clue on how to deal with them.
B.S.!
De-escalation is just another term for surrender...
???? So we just acquiesce to these incursions? WTF?

You've been asked several times for clarification. What are you talking about?
“So de-escalation is the better way to go.”
Dead wrong. Declaring war and bombing the crap out of them is the way to go. Wreck their s***hole of a country right up to the point they decide to build a wall on the border just so they don’t have to deal with us. De-escalation when Mexican troops have been invading US soil is just like handing your lunch money over to the school bully. They’ll never stop if they can get away with it.
I disagree; appeasement has always led to war, always has and always will.
Just issue a statement saying that any mexican soldier caught on our side of the border under arms will be considered an enemy combatant and engaged as such.
Uh huh, and we don’t have a military of our own?
Even better would be to build the wall, along every single inch of our southern border, including the mountains and the Rio Grande.
We are still deescalating in Korea.
