Mexican judge orders Marine sergeant to remain in custody on gun charges

A Mexican federal judge ordered Andrew Tahmooressi back to prison after the U.S. Marine sergeant made his first official courtroom appearance since being locked up March 31 for accidentally crossing the border with guns in his pickup truck.

The 26-year-old veteran of two tours in Afghanistan was finally able to tell his story to a judge, after his case had been delayed by both Mexico's unpredictable legal system and his own trouble settling on a lawyer. It was not immediately clear what Tahmooressi said at the evidentiary hearing, which was closed to the public.

Yep. And there would be no shortage of volunteers.

I know there are guys who are ready.

I think we should TAKE Mexico down to Panama, TAKE.

That's 100% on the mark, FRiend! Now is the time to finish the job started at San Jacinto. Mexico needs to become a US territory and its people American subjects. Maybe in a few hundred years, they might be worthy of the vote and gain citizenship after they learn to speak English as well as absorbing American culture and values.

Send in an Israeli special ops unit, blow down the prison wall, shoot the guards, extract the Subject by helo.

Case closed.

Once we had a president who would have threatened war or at least closed the border. All illegals placed in internment camps like Manzanar —the US bucks they send south should be stopped.

“Send in an Israeli special ops unit”, Why an Israeli unit. One of our Marine RECON units could “visit” them as a training mission..

Semper Fi

Those bastards won’t let him go unless a large ransom is paid. Mexico is totally corrupt.

A lot of their real estate is not that fantastic. I’ve lived and traveled there. Overpopulation doesn’t help either.

I wouldn’t worry about the quality of the food. A lot of the produce that we import is grown by Mennonite colonies down in Mexico. But I’ve heard that some of them have been leaving Mexico due to the violence that has become rampant there.

To prevent this from ever happening again, we need to seal off the CA border.

Unfortunately we have a leadership which is becoming just as corrupt and crooked as Mexico, neither does it have the balls or influence as it once had, otherwise it only would take a short communique or phone call to Mexico, either let our guy go or there there will be hell to pay. I turn our guy would be home within a couple of days. But these are the results of a socialist inspired linguine spine crooked leadership. Might as well get used to it.....

Mexico should be treated the same as Cuba....total ban on anything in or out.
Screw Mexico. They are pissed because not only did we take half their country, we took the half with running water and paved roads.

This is ACTUALLY a slap-to-the-face to Obama and a thumbing-of-the-nose to the U.S.

This Mexican third world cesspool of corruption knows how weak and lily-livered our presidency and our legislatures are....and they are more EMBOLDENED every day.

The American prisoner is but a pawn in an eerie Twilight Zone, no-win chessgame between evil itself which is personified in the nefarious, cunning Mexican government....and evil itself personified in the wicked, slimy anti-American president

Hmmm, maybe that is why Petraeus wants the same thing. I love their mountains. No problems with drug imports then either.
