If Mexican border agents shot an American, I would expect the US government to take an interest. Yes, even if the American was trying to enter Mexico with an intent to break the law.

INDEED.
My own take . . .
The Oligarchy wanted to send a sobering message to folks to leave their lucrative drug business alone.
Hideously treasonous.

In Mexico, everyone is literally guilty until proven innocent (or pay a big bribe.)
You really can’t compare the two. At least, not until President Bush started sending Americans to prison based on the word of an illegal alien drug runner you couldn’t.

Sentences commuted, wrong not done right?

This will all come out if Obama allows it. It isn’t pretty. But the ironic thing is, what Bush did with Mexico will pale besides what Obama will do with the Muslim governments. America is for sale, just take over payments.

Rico added his government lobbied to keep the agents in prison. But the efforts of what he called anti-immigrant groups had more influence. Yes, because cartel members who sneak into the US for an hour or two to drop off a half ton of narcotics should be considered "immigrants".

The Oligarchy wanted to send a sobering message to folks to leave their lucrative drug business alone. I agree Quix. There is something quite rotten - and it ain't in Denmark.

Thanks for your kind words.
Wish they weren’t so true.
God be with you and yours.

Jorge Bush leaves office as possibly the worst president in American history. He will be remembered for having kept the borders open in spite of the public outcry to secure them and to enforce immigration law...all the while ignoring the real threat of future terrorist attacks attributable to the borders HE chose to leave open.
Good riddance.

If I was arrested in a foreign country (for whatever reason), I sure as heck would like the U.S. government to take interest.
