"Where was our news media (http://www.fusionfx.net/index.php/2010/06/30/look-what-they-found-near-the-texas-and-mexico-border/ - broken link)? Where was our president and congress? Why does the official move from Washington go against American private citizens and their guns, and not an all out war against the drug cartels using fully automatic military weapons, hand grenades, launchers and machine-guns? Why is the president pushing for an international gun law that will bring registration and finally gun control to we American citizens? Who is for free and lawful American citizens? Where are our statesmen? Where are our patriots and where are champions for the Constitution and freedom and safety of American citizens?"

You will need to scroll down the page at the link to see the pictures. After seeing them you might ask what Obama plans to do to fix the problem.

That's a bunch of crap! Higueras IS NO WHERE NEAR THE BORDER! It's approx. 100 miles from Laredo.

You should check your email chain sources better before coming on here with that stuff.

Laredo would not be the closest border point and even if it were, the article says "near", do you want to argue "near" when the border is around 2000 miles long? I would say that 50 to 60 miles from the border qualifies as "near".

Now, why in the hell would you argue the distance anyway? Are you on the south side of the border? Were these your weapons and ammunition?

Yeah, I do want to 'ARGUE' near, because even if we agree that the cache was 60 miles away, that still over 1 hour by car...AND IF YOU'RE GOING BY CAR YOU HAVE TO GO TO LAREDO! REYNOSA will not let you cross there. Now you could go to neuvo guerro...but w/ the size of force there, I don't think you're gonna wanna try it either.

And why do i want to argue distance???? Simply because your hyperbolic rhetoric and false information are like a nail going through my brain, and your incessant ranting which usually turns out FALSE is not only offensive but UNVERIFIED AND INCOMPLETE!

I THINK WE ALL KNOW WHAT YOU'RE PROBLEM IS! AND THAT'S MY PROBLEM!!!!

1. you don't know that.
2. you can't prove that.
3. you have no information OTHER than from a blog post that this actually occurred and that those are federal police forces, and not Zetas.
4. have you been reading the headlines in mexico? If you have, you will have noticed a small drug "argument" going on there right now, and between cities and the federal police forces of MEXICO. Do you think that might have been, oh, I don't know possibly part of the reason the stash was for?
5. Are you aware of what kind of weapons those are?

In the comments was a link to debunk the location.
In that debunk link was a link to the news article.
Don't write off every blog you read and see..dig a bit to see if there's something to back it up or debunk it. The location was off, but that raid did happen.

Makes you sick to think what they planned to use these for. Not for hunting food for the table.
