will to stick it out there and hide the rest of their lives seems like a viable alternative

Bounty is not nearly high enough after inflation is figured in. $25 million and a lifetime immunity to federal taxation might do it for some.

#4  ...seems one or two administrations had no problem with drone 'events'. It's the frog in the water issue, throw them in hot water they jump out. Slowly turn the heat up and they cook. How many Americans have been killed by Jihadists in America and how many by the cartels?

#3  YES I KNOW the cartels pretty much own the Mexican Legal System.

But legally and from a national sovereignty position, I have to agree with the Mex Pres .....

I would NOT allow "Federales" aka the "Mexican Feds" to come into the USA to make arrests.

So a Bounty for some private citizens will to stick it out there and hide the rest of their lives seems like a viable alternative.
