I think I would be more likely to take a vacation in Iraq than Mexico.

It would make sense that the Islamofascists are making common cause with the drug lords to fund the Jihad as more and more interdiction occurs in the banking and transfer of electronic cash worldwide. The have made inroads in the Central American countries and South America.
Decapitation is a signature of the jihadists so I'd look very hard at exactly who is involved in this on our border.
Now, can we control borders...? Or is that too much to ask.

Looks like the drug legalization lobby in Mexico are making progress...

TIJUANA The caller painted an ominous scene: A convoy of 40 vehicles carrying 70 heavily armed and masked men was prowling the streets of Rosarito Beach on Tuesday evening. The three police officers who arrived were quickly abducted. The next morning, their mutilated bodies turned up in an empty lot.Send three cops to deal with 70 individuals in 40 vehicles? And where was the Mexican Army? Oh, yes; right there in those 40 vehicles!

"It's a disturbing manifestation of the latest drug war frenzy
. The militarization of the drug war in many ways on the side of law enforcement has corresponded with the militarization of tactics and personnel on the criminal side," said David Shirk, director of the Trans-Border Institute at the University of San Diego."
Prof Shirk should check out some past history. This is just a new manifestation of the Mexican Bandito phenomenon in which large bands of heavily armed criminals operate openly and either co opt the authorities through making alliances or openly go to war with the authorities. To some degree this sort of thing has happened since the Mexican War of Independence crated innumerable armed bands whose loyalty was only to their leader. When the government grows weak or becomes massively penetrated with camirrilas of politicos who are purely devoted to plunder the bandits emerge from the shadows and begin to openly wage war on the authorities to carve out space where they can operate openly. This is part of the Mexicanization process that I contend will inevitably come to the US with the effective Mexicanization of the political culture of the Southwest via mass immigration from the south both legal and illegal.

Partied many times in Rosarito Beach but no longer cross the border even in the Newport Beach/Ensenada sailboat (largest number of boats) race.
