OMG it never ends!

It is TREASON to leave our borders unsecured like this!
Americans and Mexicans are DYING because our border is open for business.

Everytime and American tourist dies, everytime and illegal dies while being smuggled in for cheap labor, everytime someone is killed in the drug war...there is blood on the hands of those who should secure our borders for the good of both nations.

When will this insanity stop?

In the afternoon, a major confrontation near city hall killed at least 17 more people, the source said.

One of those killed around midday was identified as Carlos Alberto Guajardo, 37, a reporter for the newspaper El Expreso. Sources with knowledge of the incident said Guajardo apparently was killed by soldiers who were chasing narcotics traffickers.

Your hubby is Border Patrol?
If so, please thank him for me and my family who really appreciate the pressure cooker he must be working in with NO support for the last administration who put our officers in JAIL or in this administration which is just negligent at best.

They are working without the funding and support they need in the most dangerous positions in the country and they are ridiculed for what they do.

So thank you to him and to YOU too for what you are doing to keep my family as safe as possible under this insanity!

Should I edit the title to say BREAKING?

He is! Going on 13 years. Thank u very much for your kind words.
