#1 We need to send AC-130s in. Fuck Mexico if they cry about it. We are receiving fire from their territory and if the Mexican government is too corrupt/lazy/stupid to do anything about it, then we will take action.

I'm tired of this bullshit.

#2 "Two Border Patrol agents investigating .... exchanged gunfire..."

Call the DA, assemble the Grand Jury. These agents must be prosecuted for shooting at Mexican citizens engaged in routine commerce.
(or sent to the range for more practice, so they don't MISS next time.)

#3 Why not put a damned big FENCE right there for 40 or so miles, since it seems to be an easy point of access?

Why put out agents at risk from Mexican bandits and at risk from our own federal prosecutors who work at the behest of the Mexican consulate?

This had got to be fixed. And the Fence, with armed angest and better ROE, is how to do it.

Enforcement, especially at the border, has to be primary (Fred Thompson)

#4 Gators or Crocks in the river might be a good step too.
