Are you sure you could handle him? I think he packs heat so maybe you need to be a bit more careful?

I have military training but am darned if I can determine of what relevance that would have to taking a shot gun across a border into a foreign country in a dismantled state or not. Even a 12 year old can read the signs prohibiting that and even a 12 year old in some parts of the world would know how to re-assemble a shot gun.

Enlighten me please as to what relevance a poster having military training would have regarding discussing someone of a military background behaving in an obvious retarded fashion brings honour to the corps?
Read the blankety blank links and learn that the man is incarcerated in a jail that the Zetas control and then talk about him rotting in a Mexican jail. I have never seen any signs on the American side of the border talking about who can just walk in or what happens to them if they do.

I have often heard that Mexicans have a tendency to enforce their immigration laws more stringently than we do ours and I am sure that when the Zetas have control and don't want guns like that one turned over to the military things would be different.

I don't think that a .410 shotgun can be reassembled and used as a rifle. Do you not know the difference in a rifle and a shotgun. Maybe your military training was inferior since in mine nearly 60 years ago they did tell us the difference. They even went so far as to point out why as prisoner chasers we were issued shot guns instead of rifles. Do you know that?

Hmmmm, now there is a likely leaner analogy.

The best part of the article is that the barrel of the over 60 year old shot gun was less than 25 inches long. I wonder how many here know that the shorter the barrel the wider the pattern up close and the longer the less the shot gets spread out. Also, some could be a bit educated if they knew just how dangerous a 410 shotgun is compared to heavier shot. I wonder who measured that barrel and from where on the gun they did their measuring.
I read that diplomats arranged for him to be removed from the general jail population and that Ileana Ros-Lehtinen is involved in the effort to get him released - they would seemingly be replying for the gov't that represents him. Gotta stop with the hyperbole, Roy.

Outstanding deflection, Roy, you old boy.

Let me just answer that for you: "Why no, no he would not."

Or, to put it into even greater perspective, would you complain if a Mexican with a green card was caught sneaking in something illegal and was strapped to the floor in Fearless Fife Arpaio's jail?

Why should he stop now? The only sustenance for his entire side of the spectrum is a heaping, helping does of this kind of daily nonsense.
