I think there are still miles and miles of unfenced border.

Breitbart Texas has learned that a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) helicopter was shot down or forced to initiate an emergency landing in Laredo, Texas due to receiving gunfire from the Mexican side of the border

Close air suport and suppression fire begins in 4 ...3...2.. gee, under this group what was I thinking. So, let me change that to white flag raised, retreat sounded, and the new border is moved to the Red River.
Mexico and points south are America’s newest and most dangerous enemies. Yo! AMERICA! Time to wake up!
Are they saying the Mexican government shot at the helicopter, i.e., police/military or was it drug cartels/smugglers/human traffickers or Muslim infiltrators?
Lots and lots of potential bad guys at the border...
It was an act of love. /sarc
Thoughts are with the crew.
The government needs to make Jade Helm run gunships up and down the border. The door gunners get real live training with live fire on little brown people. That way it would be just like the sand box combat.
Drug dealing in the Laredo subdivisions. They make it sound like someone driving around the streets of Chicago. BS
Well, this is not the first and will not be the last. These Zetas and the like are handling some big dough.
At least the pilot had sense enough to put body armor on floor to catch the rounds. I believe he has played this game before.
They never should have agreed to take Brian Williams along.
Act of war?
That was my question.
The Chinese built a wall to protect their country hundreds of years before Christ was born. And we can’t maintain a simple fence on our border?
Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Exactly. How about armed drones running in close air support as retaliation for anything firing at the helicopter.
Good posts BUMP!
Surprised it doesn’t happen more often and with MANPADS at this point. The cartels and ISIS certainly have the hardware and capability.
I think there are still miles and miles of unfenced border.
So what, Obama will ask them if they need any replacement bullets.
I no longer want a fence, I want a WALL
Build it 15 to 20 foot high, wide enough for a road on top, mount a 10 to 15 foot metal fence on Mexican side. Add lights and sensors. On the US side, put vehicle on / off ramps to the boarder patrol can drive up when needed.
How to build this:
1) put in a train track 1 mil inland that runs the length of the border
2) Take the illegals and put them to work at work camps making CEB (compressed earth blocks). Illegals that work 6 months without incident at the work camps get their records expunged and get deported back to Mexico
3) Ship the CEBs via the rail to locations where we build the boarder compounds to house the boarder patrol
4) Use the CEBs to also build the aforementioned wall
Probably those red blinking thingies on the instrument panel were a subtle hint to land soonest. If it was the one that says Master Caution, it was not subtle.
A precautionary landing?
How did they know they’d been hit?
What do you mean stupid party?
Are you suggesting the other party is smart and on the side of conservatives and America?
??
No it's not. That's just the bull sh*t they fed the public. Some bought it.
The job is easy and did ya notice they have no problem collecting their pay checks, all funded by our taxes?
Problem is they never had any intention of protecting or securing our borders. But they have no problem taking money from you and me for a service which were never preformed. All this while their bosses are aiding and abetting lawless open borders while people like Bush paraded around in BP dune buggies for the cameras.
