Mexican Incurrsion into US airspace AGAIN !

Re: Mexican Incurrsion into US airspace AGAIN !

The helicopter wasn't 100 miles into U.S. airspace.

It was near Zapata, which is on the border.

I'm for shooting them down, but the Texas Air Force has not equipped me with a suitable aircraft. I'll take a P-51 Mustang. I'll need a credit card for fuel, too - those puppies are thirsty - and a lot of .50 ammunition for the guns.

Perhaps the Texas air force could ask the US government for some free F-16's to defend Texas with! After all, the US government gave Romania two squadrons for free.
"U.S. To Sell F-16 Fighters To Romania
March 25, 2010 by Matthew Potter

The new NATO states of Eastern Europe have been working diligently to upgrade their forces to meet the standards of the western alliance. At the same time they have to be careful as to how much they spend. In this vein it was announced that the U.S. Government will sell twenty-four F-16 fighters to Romania. The aircraft will replace aging MiG-21 Fishbed Soviet made fighters.

Due to their lack of resource Romania will buy used aircraft through an intergovernmental contract. <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="text-decoration: underline">In fact the aircraft will be provided for free with Romania</span></span> responsible for paying for upgrades, training and infrastructure. The country had looked at other available aircraft including more modern SAAB Gripen and Eurofighters but just could not afford them. This path gets better capability at a lower price.

I wonder if the US government thinks Texas is as important as Romania?

Wouldn't a few well placed magnum rounds work, as in .338 Lapua Magnum? You can't tell me there isn't anyone down there that has one or two, shoot even a .50 would work

I dont buy that, My son WAS an ICE agent, I said WAS, because he moved on because they arnt allowed to do their job. These guys on the whole would love to be able to go out there and do what they are suppose to be paid to do.

That comment is like blaming our soldiers for the idiotic rules of engagements in Iraq and Afgan.

I dont know the answer, I know the government WONT do anything about illegals, and private citizens are getting sued or charged for protecting themselves and property.

The only thing I see is voting for those who want to do something, but to be truthful, too many citizens dont care, its not their back yard thats being invaded,

SO THE BEAT GOES ON

They have permission, prue and simple, I'll bet Canada has it too, yall get your Internet panties in an uproar over nothing.
 
Re: Mexican Incurrsion into US airspace AGAIN !

That part of Texas is populated with Mexican Nationals, a few US Citizens, and a lot of snowbirds from Canada and the US. The RV park we used to stay in was about half or more Canadian. Essentially the going philosophy there is that the area is occupied Mexico. From Brownsville to Del Rio and further north along the river, for at least 100 miles inward, the area is run by foreign nationals.
Great Fishing on the gulf coast, but otherwise it sucks big time.
 
Re: Mexican Incurrsion into US airspace AGAIN !

I think it lies more in society as a whole. No one will stand up and fight over it bu tinstead maintain the 'oh we can vote for it later on to try to fix it' line. Fact is, voting isn't going to fix this. It will take many people who are just so sick and tired of they will bring out th erifles and make a stand to stop it themselves. With this kind of violence directed at our people with the government doing nothing, our countrymen have proven throughout time they will not stand for it when it gets to be bad enough. Returning veterens did it in Alabama or Arkansas after WWII, who's to say OEF/OIF veterens won't do it now?

Perhaps 3-4 of these in the A/O riding around on standby.
2 live ones in Bama right now, plus their still set up for working Air Craft. Send the mess's our way.

That range looks awfully familiar. Is that the left side of the main range at Knob Creek?
 
Re: Mexican Incurrsion into US airspace AGAIN !

It is always an interesting discussion when we get mad at the Pakistani’s for not controlling their border with Afghanistan when we can't control any of our borders.
