This was issued a couple of days ago. Granted, Juarez is a shithole, but things have to get pretty rough for this type of warning. I'm not sure what the fix for something like this is aside from full-on military action.

Then there's the open border proponents....my God, what imbeciles and/or traitors are in their numbers.

Mexico just needs more gun control.

I went to Juarez once. And once was enough!
Most vivid memory of this delightful town:
While walking down the sidewalk, a woman I judged to be age 70, grabbed my gonads and asked me if I wanted a date with her daughter.
What a friendly and hospitable place!

You kind of just trailed off after this lead in...

Ok.... Sorry to leave you...Hanging! I declined the offer, looked around town for about an hour and the fled back to the good ol USA.

No pics?

Instead of fencing it off, can't we just agree to mine a half mile area just to the south of the US/Mehico border? My bet, it would be less expensive and far more effective.

We have a manufacturing facility there. In order to visit it for a mobility project we had to stay in the US and take a shuttle to the plant and back each day. The shuttle was semi hardened and had 2 armed guards. We also had to be back on the US side of the border prior to sundown each day.
