Where is all the outrage? He should be set free immediately. He made an innocent mistake.

Hmmmmm,

#1 open (tho empty) alcohol container

#2 refuse to take DUI tests

#3 passing in a "no passing" zone

Under certain circumstances all can land you in the pokey. "Innocent mistakes" they are not!!!

Totally separate case than the "Mexican Jail" incident. I don't recall any "outrage" in the Mexican Jail incident-------just a possibly unjustifiably longgggg jail stay based on questionable available evidence and lack of speedy due process, and a concerned parent and media-wonks wondering why.

Interesting how the same facts can be interpreted so differently by folks.

He crossed into Mexico with firearms. That is a fact. He was guilty and went to jail.

Yes, it is interesting how some facts can be distorted.

BajaBoy----------I have no problem with your first sentence above, but from there on things went very badly, even by Mesican Justice standards. Of course, just my opinion.

Zack, it's been over 24 hours now and still no vitriolic, bombastic, endlessly repeated insults and enemy lists. I lose all the bets I made with myself!:lol::lol:

Please put specfic information in your new topic posts!

I mean this in the best sense of Nomads! Sometimes topic posts are vague and you may not reach the people you are intending to reach...I am sure like myself many Nomads can't search every thread but the headline may be that one chance to get their attention and get results!
