Mood: Enjoying Life with Wife In Mexico, Easy on The Easy

No, the point is where is your outrage over this situation where officers lives were lost by a KNOWN CRIMINAL DEPORTEE!! This Marine did nothing like that in Mexico. His incident was not even close but some of those calling him a "nut case" or trying to say he was in movement to shoot someone with his weapons just made up what ifs to continue attacks on him. So, get outraged over something that is REAL & endangers our friends, relatives, kids & LAW ENFORCEMENT!! We have KNOWN deported criminal individuals within the USA & no OUTRAGE over that just with this Veteran Marine. Just tried of seeing people writing attacks on this Veteran Marine & just tired of it in comparing his incident to the really bad stuff going on in USA by criminals deported back into Mexico for FAR worse offenses. All of the concern for Mexico but none for USA, just tired of seeing that over & over by those of us that really know better but have been letting it go. Let this Man get whatever assistance HE NEEDS instead of those that keep doing the USA wrong getting chance after chance. I have said all I intend to say on this, as not going to be baited into stupid back & forth on this matter. Take Care & Travel Safe

BF777...Those are valid points, for sure....We wont know why the Marine did what he did, or what influenced it. But we know for sure that he was a serving Marine in a major conflict. That means something, at least to me. Lets hope he gets on with his life, and does what needs done. Semper Fi.

Consider yourself invited to the first annual chicken coop group reunion party Dennis, you are always one of us like it or not.

Another thing to consider is recruitment of new members. I think most of us are on the back side of living and we wouldn't want the group to die out with the current members. I've never been a member of an organization like this, any ideas how we can keep the group growing and thriving for generations to come?

What minority do you have in mind Bajaboy? Why would it make a difference?

He did provide a bit of political fodder, though.


Really know all about it, Huh? Tell us all what you have done for your country.

Any minority. I really doubt Fox News and the lunatics that wanted to block the border entrances would have made such a stink had the Marine been a minority. Do you disagree?

Any by the way, my kids want a chicken coop group hoodie.

Frankly, I was expecting a graphic of someone wiggling their fingers from their nose and saying nanny-nanny-boo-boo! from you know who. I'm impressed by his restraint - only one stupid graphic so far.

I'm all for this guy getting treatment. Doesn't mean I believe his story for a minute, nor do I condone him driving around anywhere with loaded weapons and a huge stash of ammo. Mexico, Ca, Florida. Wherever. If he's unfit to be tried he should be remanded to a facility where he gets treated until he is. Just like everyone else who is judged incompetent for trial. He's a danger to himself and others, clearly. I hope he gets the help he needs and I hope he's kept off the streets until he no longer poses a threat due to his mental illness. This from someone who has been on the receiving end of dealing with someone with PTSD. All the sympathy for his issues and gratitude for his service won't mean a lot to his victims or their families if he really goes off.

If he were black, you're right, we wouldn't be talking about it. He would have been released long ago. Al, Reggie, Eric and Barack would have been at the border the next day demanding all sorts of stuff and making all sorts of accusations of racism etc. So I would have to agree with you, we wouldn't be talking about it 8 months later. Is that what you meant with your observation?

I think tee shirts, hoodies, tank tops etc. are a great idea, maybe elinvestigator could provide some design suggestions for our official logo.:bounce::bounce:

Easily refuted by the facts. Jabin Bogan, a 27 year old black truck driver, accidentally drove a truck full of military grade ammo into Mexico in 2012. He spent seven months in jail, same as Tahmooressi. Obama wasn't able to do a thing.

No sitting president can openly interfere with an ongoing criminal trial in a foreign country. All negotiations have to be conducted discreetly, as they were in this case.

It really does not mater how you get into the news cycle as long as you get there and manage to stay there. If most of us did the same thing we would be looking at years in jail.

Yep. And if you've (and your kids) have never been on the receiving line of someone suffering from ptsd then then maybe, just maybe, you don't know what you are talking about. He needs help. And he shouldn't be let free until he gets it.

Now that you mention it I remember this case. You are right, I stand corrected, guess I've been watching too much "Ferguson" coverage...
