Mattis regarding the Border Troops "We don't do stunts"

[pmclaine]

I think the USA should be bigger, and parts of MX look pretty appealing, both from an urban frontier perspective, and from a logistics/resource perspective. If we could nab 300 miles inside the border of MX, we could even deny Cali their coveted illegals.

Basically, drop that MX border, add in some nice 90* angles, and call all of that New Texas. Doesn't make up for what MX has done to us, but definitely shakes things up a bit and gives us an opportunity to eliminate some of the bad hombres Mexico is beholden to.

I think it could be smaller.

Let Puerto Rico go be Puerto Rico.

Get our Troops out of Afghanistan, Iraq, Germany.

Let's Keep Guam, Wake, and a couple other fueling stations/ammo dumps.

Maintain a presence in Antarctica and the NP.

Build a Space Force and let's set up a range on the moon because I understand the BC measures are outstanding for .308.

No territory should be maintained buy the US if they choose to fly their present flag instead of our National Flag.

You don't see people flying their state flags from their rear view mirrors and I don't want to see any American of Irish descent flying an Irish flag from the mirror either.

Nobody had a prob when Clinton used troops to kill 80 Americans at Waco,,,,, e

A man named McVeigh did.

As do I! Yet let us not deceive ourselves as to his motive.

 

[ArmyJerry]

what was that?????

To punish the FBI/BATF for Ruby Ridge and Waco. It would have been far better to leave that to congress.

And demonstrated the common and almost always predictable failure of undertaking such actions & why intelligent people usually don't do such things.

He managed to take out a few underlings and some innocent people.

The actual evil people responsible not only weren't bothered at all, they probably relished the chance to use that as an excuse to tighten down on freedom and liberty even more.

Congress was never going to do a thing about it either way.

However the deaths at Waco and Ruby Ridge served as a wakeup call to all freedom loving kind in this country to arm up and beware as the government is happy to kill you.

 

[ArmyJerry]

the government had their opportunity to punish those agents and agencies and they didn't, the courts ruled federal agents cant be held responsible. well I dont think that was acceptable to that guy. Nothing has changed in the agencies involved since, actually its worse. Not going to post it here but you can look up the daily mail letters McVeigh sent but were suppressed in the usa.

I have 19 years in the military, 12 of which are guard. I have a handful of buddies that have volunteered for assisting BP on the southern border. Their response after getting back was it was a complete waste of time and their hands were so tied (posse comitatus) that it was pointless they were there. They would be stuck in the middle of bum F desert with a radio and call shit it that no one could respond too. Waste of manpower, money, and time to appease Trumps mindless supporters. Beef up BP who has training to do this job and fix current immigration policies instead of wasting U.S assets.

Mindless?

Sadly, Mexico has done to us only what we've allowed.

Perhaps Mr Mattis does not do stunts, but unless the troops have orders to use lethal force to close the border then they will not be able to stop people. There are not enough troops being sent to close the border by holding hands and singing.

Which is why I said the ROE's issued to the troops, or lack thereof, is the real story. I mean, that one card will say it all.

No thank you. Thats just doing the Dems work. People need to do the hard work to come here and earn their citizenship that way they will cherish it.

The people I meet that come here lawfully tend to have great attitudes toward our Constitution......except for the British ones......they bring their "you should change your country" attitudes with them and they can be extremely annoying.

I hung out with six Brit scouts on leave in Vancouver. The combined 12 of us were something to behold. Those guys had our backs too like we were one of them. And they drooled over our firearms and laws, etc. Hell, the average teenage/twentysomething British doorkicker would fit right in here.

We just keep getting the Piers Morgan fucks that won't completely go away.
