As of last night we're effectively at war with Mexico, and it looks like we lost the first battle.
A U.S. Border Patrol entry Identification Team site was overrun Wednesday night along Arizona's border with Mexico.According to the Border Patrol, an unknown number of gunmen attacked the site in the state's West Desert Region around 11 p.m. The site is manned by National Guardsmen. Those guardsmen were forced to retreat.
The Border Patrol will not say whether shots were fired.
Which means shots were fired. I don't mean to sound hysterical, but what is it besides war when armed soldiers, regular or irregular, cross our border and attack our military positions?
The Border patrol says the attackers quickly retreated back into Mexico.
The National Guard troops should be authorized to follow armed invaders back into Mexico and kill them. This sort of attack and retreat incursion is nothing less than a military probe of our capability and will. If such probes are met with weakness, expect further escalation.
How did you find that?! It seems to be buried on a central AZ newsite with no national coverage? Why not?! Do they think so little of armed incursions now that it isn't even newsworthy? send a cruise missle into Mexico City and see if that gets some attention...sheesh.
Its on like Donkey Kong.
I need to seriously reconsider joining the Texas Guard. (Not the Texas National Guard, the Texas Guard.) And I need to end this business trip to Mexico City that I am on. :D
You all need an education... but that is why I left the ignorance of the US in the first place.
Ex-Gringo: Thank you for leaving the United States! Good riddance. People like you breathe our air and eat our food...I'm personally very grateful that you don't live in the same country as me.
Where did you obtain such inforamtion? On another note, the USA is changing its ethnic make up. The reality is that by 2050 there will be alot more people of a race other than anglo saxon and that is not a bad thing. To all those minute men and clans men, there is a good chance that your children and grand children will marry into a race other than anglo saxon. So either put up or shut up. Dark genes are dominate over light genes, it is a genetic biolagical fact. The numbers speak for themselves.
Elisandro: First, there's no proof that "dark genes are dominate [sic] over light genes," and second, learn to spell.
Damn Pancho Villa wannabes....
6K: My wife pointed the article out to me!
Ex-Gringo and Elisandro: I don't care whose genes are superior or what color anyone's skin is. This isn't about race -- at least to me, though maybe it is to you.
I just want America to have control over its borders and to make wise choices about deciding who to admit. There are billions of people who want to come here, but we can't take everyone.
Those are typical responses from people like Ex-Gringo and Elisandro thinking this is about Mexicans. Wake up retards, this is about illegal border crossings and now armed incursions from illegals. Since your lack of education seems to cause you to miss the ILLEGAL part, don't post until you look up illegal so you know what we are talking about. Legal immigration is what makes this country great! Illegal immigration does nothing but drag down society.
On most topics, the liberal line is that we're backward and should follow the example of other countries. You never hear that on immigration, though, because few if any other countries have immigration control anywhere near as lax as ours. Certainly Mexico doesn't. It would be nice to have immigration enforcement that is half as stringent as Mexico's.
Michael Williams - Take deep breaths. In an actual military map of the US/Mexico border, significant territory, most of it in Mexico would be marked as not in control of either Mexico or the US. There are more than two players down there. You could very well be right that it's a war but your implication is westphalian war. There you are almost certainly mistaken.
Ex-gringo - How does one become an ex-gringo? Is the operation covered by your insurance?
Elisandro - Your knowledge of genetics is execrable. Here's a reasonable foundation that will help you not sound such a fool.
By all means, let us look at the numbers.
US - Population 300M, 65% Anglo makes for 195M anglos
Mexico - Population 107M.
In case you didn't notice, 3rd generation immigrants adopt US population reproduction trends. That means that Mexicans who "immigrated" when the SW was handed over to the US are no more likely to have large familiees than their anglo neighbors. And as Mexico's income increases, family sizes will very likely trend downwards, just like every other country that's grown rich. Your population trends are just simply unlikely to be accurate.
This leaves me to the sad conclusion that you're a racist mexican irredentist and believe me the irredentist part is what ticks me off. You can be as racist as you like and have me just smile and secretly laugh at you but irredentists are downright dangerous. You want to yank the chain of the anglos and 'fight the power'. Well go pound sand. You will never win, most of all because the vast majority of mexicans have too much sense to take your idiot pseudo-science and ugly politics seriously.
