So the federal government won't control the Mexican border in Arizona, and when the area becomes overrun by armed gangs from Mexico they decide to BAN Americans from the area? huh?

so I guess that solves the border issue, just cede the land over to Mexico. mission accomplished!

The man is a disgrace to our nation.
And so are all those who still foolishly support him.

The Arizona/Mexican border is a virtual war zone, nothing less, and it is way past due to start treating it like one. That means troops in force, instant use of deadly force in response to any hostile act, finish the fence, and if all else fails, create a DMZ on both sides of the border with minefields on our side. If that means war with Mexico, so be it. Perhaps we should go back and finish up the things that were started in 1846-1848.

i WAS watching the news the other night and the guards confiscated a WWII machine gun from the area (appeared to look like a 50 cal type).

That is a lot of spill over of cartel violence. I am beginning to think that law does not go far enough. How do you haul something that big over here and not get caught?

Maybe it is just me

As much as I would like to blame the border catastrophe on Obama, Bush made no real attempt to fix the problem either. Anyway, illegals have been coming over for decades, however it bothers me when Obama takes a stand against deportation!

I live in Mexico and follow border reports with keen interest. My understanding is that this section of parkland has been off limits for several years. Two years ago the Bush administration declared the same for 'Border field park' which is just across from Tijuana.

So I'm talkin' to this guy yesterday. Bright guy. Worked as a diplomat for Baja California Mex to European businesses. Bring in business, factories, that sorta gig. Grew-up in Belgium, speaks French, Spanish, Italian, English. Is now writing a book about an open source program called Sugar CS or something.

Tells me things in TJ are about as bad as they've ever been. Business people have to come in unannounced. Several people he's known have been kidnapped. Tourism down 70+%.

With that level of corruption? Forget about it.

tjdave, do you mind saying why you live in Mexico and would you recommend it to others?

Retired here 12 years ago. Live about 35 miles south of TJ. Own a home in a secure compound on the beach I couldn't replicate for 20 times the price north of the border. Taxes are cheap, utilities, cost of living, all much cheaper than the U.S. Have a Sentri pass which scoots me across the border in 15 minutes, or less. And...

Caliente race/sports book is 20 minutes up the road. :cool:

that's interesting. I travel around the country a couple times a year on business, and often I've wondered if it might be possible to find some secure place along the coast somewhere.

Showing what was the reason for the failure of the left in 2010, that is very similar to what is going on today? What was the thing that made you mad about that?

I was wondering about that too. Could it be that you posted a link without an accompanying synopsis of that link. Is that a violation of copyright?

Is there still a border between the U.S.A. and Mexico? :confused:
(There doesn't seem to be one.)
