#10 least they don't try to sneak into Texas in their cop cars. That previlage is reserved for the Mexican Army. They've been photographed on this side of the border in fully armed jeeps. Most likely escourting drug runners. The locals complain, but nothing ever gets done about it. |

#9 Current conditions in Nawlins are still a step up from some places down in Mexico. Except for the police. Even though the Mexican police are pretty corrupt too, at least they don't try to sneak into Texas in their cop cars. |

#4 ZF - I suspect that on the Mexican version of the map, there is no border, making Jan's point most appropriate. |
