Mexico says its troops killed US man

Oh, yeah? Well...if some shady US gun dealer hadn't illegally sold that damned assault rifle - that eventually made it's way across the border - this never would've happened.

"Mexican beach town where the couple had just moved, intending to start a new life"

^^^ Forgive my potential ignorance but I don't understand how anyone can get to the point of thinking that packing up and moving to Mexico is a good life decision. Just my initial thought after reading that sentence.

All too true Bailey. I knew it was somebody elses fault. LOL. You called it though. I'm sure that if this story made it into the "main stream" this is exactly what some libtard would proclaim.

Couldn't agree more!...Don't see us vacationing in Kabul, Kirkuk, Fallujah, or the Congo etc, and thinking it's a wise decision...

I have never done it, but I Have relatives that have vacationed in Mexico.
I've never understood it. I Would think its much akin to vacationing in Kuwait or Saudi Arabia.
Yeah, it has a sandy beach and its warm, what else?

Agreed, I don't understand folks that vacation in Mexico. I know several folks (mainly people I work with), that have gone, and are actually planning on going, to mexico. I realize some areas (particularly border towns) are much more dangerous than others, but as far as i'm concerned Mexico is Mexico, the Government is Corrupt no matter where you go, and if you hang out there long enough, it's only a matter of time before something bad happens. If not for the danger alone, WHY would any Freedom loving American go support a Country, that is so adamant about ruining ours?

close the border. anyone that crosses by illegal means should be shot, then tossed back over the border.

Big diff. between securing the border and closing the border. I hope you guys meant securing the border (something that we never had) since we are exporting over $160 billions to Mexico annual. Colorado actually benefits a lot from this.
