Really? How many is "far more" and who is killing them?
Name ONE time when a tourist from Mexico was across the border BY LESS THAN 1/4 MILE, doing NOTHING threatening and having borken no laws other than crossing the border, had no intention of REMAINING on the wrong side of the border for any longer than it took to see the item of interest they came to see and were shot for it. Just ONE time.
I'm sure your view looks really good from DFW...and I'm fairly sure that you ahve never been with-in 100 mile of the mexican border. So, once again, why don't you spend a little time gaining some FIRST HAND knowledge of what the problem is before you try to tell those of us who live CLOSE, WORK CLOSE, and have seen the change LIVE, UP CLOSE and IN PERSON over an EXTENDED period of time...and have been telling the Feds there is a problem and not getting ANY response....what you "think" the problem is...and isn't.
Oh yea? Show us some news articles of a Mexican getting shot because he wondered over here and didnt do anything wrong.
Im sure drug smugglers get shot sometime and if I had it my way, they would all get shot on sight for haulig dope!
I just dont see any facts behind someone wondering on this side of the border getting shot for nothing at all.
You seem to have jumped to some seriously incorrect assumptions about my 'views'. This odd, since I have not offered any.
If you care to re-read what I wrote, you will see I was merely pointing out that securing the border does not prevent crimes from occurring in Mexico, which is apparently where it occurred.
Since you seem so focused on my views, let me tell you them. My view is the southern border should look something like the Berlin Wall, with wide kill zones. That is my 'view' from up here in dfw.
In addition, just as we sent Patton into Mexico, we should do the same now.
Any more questions?

Im not bashing your opinion, i just interested in know about the statistics of mexicans getting shot for simply crossing the border.
I do agree with the kill zone. Get cought smuggling dope, and get your ass shot!

Google it for yourself.
And I wish we could shoot them onsight too.
And I bet the Mexican version of this incident will be they were at the old church to steal artifacts, thus they were engaged in criminal activity. The us sheriff already hinted at this.

I didnt forget bout cha CW, YES it was a good one!!
I googled it. Your googlefu must be better than mine. I found a lot on the rececnt shooting of a 15-year old by border patrol. I found several other incidents involving LEOs. I found nothing on US citizens killing lots of Mexicans here in the US.

Mateys got a point!! most likely it went down the way the wife suggests, but one can never be certain. its just like Ocean Cruises. "A Happy Couple" goes on a cruise and somehow one or the other gets thrown overboard in the middle of the night and not reported till the next morning???? just sayin, cause theres no way to prove anything and stranger things have happened....

O.K. let me get this straight, you live in/around San Angelo, Paint Rock, Knickerbocker, Austin and in the fall some where on the range?? well I guess your new nickname is NOW--- TUMBLEWEED!!!!!!!
I have homes in San Angelo and Austin, ranch around Paint Rock and Knickerbocker and have places that are leased out around Sanderson, Marfa and Bandera...made an offer on a nice little 250 acre place between Kerrville and Fredricksburg yesterday...and will be guiding a couple of trips to Colorado and a couple more in New Mexico this fall...does that help?
well played sir
