Here we go again? "Oh, shit" moment for ATF once more? Two U.S. Immigration Agents Shot In Mexico.

And courtesy of Arctic Patriot we have this:

Two U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were shot Tuesday afternoon in the line of duty in Mexico, according to an ICE statement.

The agents assigned to the ICE Attache office in Mexico City were attacked by unknown assailants while driving between Mexico City and the northern city of Monterrey. There were no details on their condition or the precise location of the shooting.

The Mexican President's Office and Mexican immigration officials said they had no information on the attack.

Another shooting incident involving U.S. government employees and Mexican drug gangs with the details all fuzzy. I can't wait to see if this one was perpetrated by a Project Gunwalker rifle.

What exactly does our .gov think it's doing sending BP agents driving around in central Mexico?
Let's just see how that flies with Canadian or Mexican border patrol agents cruising around in Colorado or Kansas. Or Neu Jersey. Just looking for stragglers I suppose.
These guys walked into an ambush, maybe of their own making and then the local boys said, enough is enough. No mas gringos!
How much of this drug war are we stirring up, just like we've done in a hundred other countries for the past hundred years? Nothing new here. Ask Hillary.

Dennis308 said...: Could these gun come from "Gun Walker"? I wouldn't be very surprised if they did after all by conservative estimates there are more that 600 guns(666 guns in the Grassley letter)Un-Accounted for in the Phoenix Office part of this Scandal. How Many guns did the Austin Office Approve. Then there's New Mexico and California, Just how wide spread was "Gun Walker" any clues Mike, curious minds want to know.

Bad Cyborg said...: I watched Megyn Kelly talking to the former Deputy Director of the Border Patrol this afternoon. At one point she interrupted him, reminded him they didn't have all day and all but ORDERED him to give a substantive reply. No luck. Retired alpha bureaucrat that he is he continued to talk without saying anything. Can't believe a smart - and FREAKING GORGEOUS - woman like Megyn actually thought she could get answers out of a retired bureaucrat.

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
