Quote:What's interesting is that the administration hasn't lifted a finger to get him released from this Mexican prison, but they have issued a mandate to our border agents to not detain any Mexican military or law enforcement that cross the border carrying weapons illegally into our country.  It's happened more than 300 times in the last 10 years and not a single one was detained.  They're processed and sent back, or they return on their own. 

 

You won't read about it in the news, but its happened significantly more than 300 times.  

 

One instance that has never hit the news happened about 2 weeks ago.  Mexican soldiers confronted a Border Patrol Agent in the United States and told him that he was in Mexico.  The Border Patrol Agent told them that they were in the United States and to go back.  The three soldiers held their rifles at low ready on the agent.  The CO attempted to detain the Border Patrol Agent, but the agent smartly backed away.  The CO then ordered the 2 others to flank the agent.  Shortly after, backup for the agent arrived and calls were made to the Mexican Comandante in which he ordered his soldiers to stand down.  The CO shook everyone's hand and tried to shake the BP Agent's hand that he had just flanked, but the agent refused.  After the slight, the CO then told the agent that he had better not ever see him in Mexico.
