One can understand why the Mexicans would get a bit edgy about US Marines in Mexico with weapons. We do have a bit of history with them, and it has generally been to our advantage.

The Mexican military has a bad habit of getting lost on our side of the border as well.

If they can't tell a fight from a funeral, maybe it's time to refresh their memories...

That's ok. I get edgy about Mexicans with weapons in the U.S.

If this is true, I wonder what they'd do if a Spanish Army ceremonial unit came to town.

We gave them the freakin' country back, I don't see why we should have to listen to their crybaby whining...for the last 156 years!

I think they either shut up, or we give them a reason to cry.

Perhaps Mexico needs another kick to the nether region to remind them what is meant by "From the Halls of Montezuma".

From the Halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
We fight our country's battles
In the air on land and sea.
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to bear the title
Of United States Marines.

They weren't weapons. They were props.
