A military friend and I were stopped a few days ago whilst fishing just south of
Coronado Island by the Mexican police...it was an inconvenience to say the least. I am a bit curious if that Trump joker had anything to do with the new enforcement? I am glad that someone ran a story on the harassment. http://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news......ackdown/  |

Hey Devious,
Maybe they thought you were tryinig to sneak across the border and live in Mexico. Thewy have to be careful. They do not want any illegal aliens or undesirables. You can't be to careful these days.  Don't want them reaping all those benefits of Mexico afforded to those "border crossing illegal aliens". Just saying they are only protecting their country. What a novel idea. Wow.
If I were to agree with you. Then we would both be wrong. As of Apr 5, 2015 10:26 pm I have 880 posts. Used to have over 1,000

They probably were afraid you were "Fishing" out the Heroin that the authorities were going to pick up themselves. When they determined you weren't there to pick up their heroin, they let you go.

Which one is the police?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Of course, I guess it also depends on how inclusive the police label is. I agree the Mexican police (regular cops) have a bad reputation. Not sure about those others.

Meanwhile, here is how it is done in the U.S.
http://www.browardpalmbeach.com/news/mig......-7133271 Seriously, though, you have one amongst the longest international borders in the world to guard. And I doubt it will ever be able to be adequately guarded against border jumpers, unless taxpayers pony up a LOT more than they are now. So I am only surprised that there are not more incidents like the one above in the news. That is not a criticism, just a statement on how I see it. I've no solution for you, sorry.

They were Mexican federal agents.
