Texas Rangers needed. Shoot first, questions later.

[Salvavida]

Don’t need Texas Rangers for that. An up-gunned Neighborhood Watch with technology and very favorable Texas Law.

Is he speaking of Fast & Furious?

[metmom]

Yes, like open season.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Allow me to recommend a Mexican solution.

Have someone living in the house at all times.

And ARMED someone.

Never leave the house empty.

[DouglasKC]

Just a snarky way of saying that Trump’s policies are working.

Shoot first, questions later.

Too bad Trump and Homan didn’t take out the cartels first... but they’ll take care of them when they’re ready.

Agreed.

I got a better idea: Nuke Mexico.

Honestly. What in God's name has Mexico EVER done for The United States?

Mexico has ceased to be a nation based on any semblance of the rule of law. It'd a narco state controlled by the cartels.

“Mexico has ceased to be a nation based on any semblance of the rule of law.”

I saw the Tijuana police actively at work. A few National Guard and army jeeps roamed the city. The only people that I worried about were the homeless living to the east of the artisan goods sales complex (and just south of the pedestrian bridge across the Tiajuana ‘River’).

The Mexicans now secure their border well, probably against the possibility of invader repatriation by Trump.

“It’s a narco state controlled by the cartels.”

I saw no sign of cartel-level wealth in Tijuana.

Tiajuana did give the impression of being poorer than it is. Tiajuana homeowners obviously care more about security than appearance.

Except for giving drugs to invaders to smuggle, the cartels probably only have a few thousand people of their own.

“Honestly. What in God’s name has Mexico EVER done for The United States?”

Mexico makes motor vehicle parts. Lots of stuff is now made in Mexico.

My neighbors used to live in El Paso. Their neighbors helped run the factories south of the border in Ciudad Juarez.

[P.O.E.]

Tequila, Chihuahuas, Jumping Beans, bandits who don’t need no stinkin’ badges, etc.

Find me an honest Mexican politician.
