If this is true, this is probably drug related.

It was likely in retaliation for the BP Agent that shot up a rock-throwing border intruder the other day. Naco is the next nearest border crossing point/hot spot from Douglas where the agent shot the intruder.

Makes me kinda sorry a Marine contingent, or a squad of 11Bravo's weren't around to teach em the truth, American style.

Those Mexican druggo-pukes couldn't figure out how to unass the area fast enough if they met the real deal.

Hey Presidente JORGE ... DO THE DAMN JOB WE TRUSTED YOU WITH !!

Another measure, AZ House Bill 2652, would set up groups of armed volunteers to patrol Arizona's border with Mexico, with the goal of helping people who became stranded in the desert north of the border.

"I don't want Mexicans to come across the border," said Rep. Ray Barnes, R-Phoenix, the bill's sponsor. "But I don't want them getting killed, either."

The citizens group would be under the auspices of the Arizona Department of Public Safety.

Members would alert immigration authorities if they spotted anyone attempting to cross the border.

Barnes said the legislation is also aimed at helping property owners who are frustrated by immigrants trashing their properties as the border crossers make their trek north of the border.

"I'm trying to stop people from getting hurt," said Barnes, adding that property owners often are taking matters into their own hands. "People are upset and want to protect their property."

I love that term "Domestic Law Enforcement Agency." The previous administration treated the USS Cole bombing like a bank robbery in Cleveland. Send in the FBI! Yeah right..

I watched a movied on AMC tonight called "Halls of Montezuma." Made in 1950, I think. One of the Marines panics and trys to avoid getting on the landing craft, but the lieutenant knows the kid, and brings up their time at "Clinton High School" to convince the guy to press forward. It worked.

Clinton High School. We're all graduates of Clinton HS.

Okay. Time has since passed that I was willing to allow for the poor, tired, and hungry yearning for peace. They have fades away and in their places, are just the leftists or criminals, not sure of the diff there. So slam the gates and put up a 50 cal barrage fence if anyone so much as lifts their head within 10 feet of the American Border. Give them a taste of *Osama.* They deserve it after the sheer audacity they exhibited towards Americans playing damb sports in their lowclass country.

If they are armed, make it within range.

The hell with them too. We need this like we need another San Fransissyco.

Actually, that crossed my mind just after I pressed "Post"... so I thought I'd wait for someone else to say it. :-) Thanks!

There was a BP agent that got his head bashed in with rocks a while back. They were well within their rights to shoot.

I wonder if any of those shell casings mentioned were shot by our side? I hope they at least got a few shots off!

These scum could come across the border and slit the throats of every citizen from Brownsville to Ft. Worth and D.C. would turn a blind eye.

Nothing is going to interfere with their plans to melt the USofA into a mere member state of the unified western hemisphere, under international law, and under an appointed not elected board of tyrants.

Shootings like this happens quite often in Reynosa and Nuevo Laredo in the broad open daylight. Mostly drug related but these drugs are headed for the USofA.

A long way from Naco, but Naco is not the only place on the border with a problem:

A U.S. Border Patrol agent stands by his vehicle
while watching the United States-Mexico border
above Goat Canyon in Imperial Beach, Calif.,
Oct. 14, 2003. Behind him is a section of the
original border fence in disrepair. The Department
of Homeland Security wants to add a second
fence for national security but environmentalists
say it will destroy fragile canyons and harm an
estuary that is home to several endangered and
threatened species.

Yeah, here in Texas three FBI agents assigned to guard a train, trains are being ripped off along the border. Anyway they were dragged into Mexico about fifty feet or so and beaten.

The Mexican government pitched a big fit because other agents investigating the scene dared to violate their sovereign territory by fifty feet in the course of their investigation of the event.

As many times as things like this have happened, I wonder more and more how we would react if these guys had been Al Qaeda. Wouldn't we have long since beat their a$$es? Wouldn't we have declared war for this crap and brought FREEDOM to Mexico?
