Originally posted by Baron Von Crowder View Postmeh, I think he honestly didnt mean to go through the border, and was looking for a turn-around, as he told 911.In a recording of the call released by U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-California, the Marine appears unsure of whether he crossed the border and exasperated that Mexican authorities are trying to take his weapons.
"There's nothing I can help you with then, sir," the 911 dispatcher says after learning he's in Mexico. "I do apologize. You're not on American soil anymore."
Tahmooressi asks if authorities have a right to take his guns.
The dispatcher tells him he should have seen large warning signs on the freeway saying it's illegal to enter Mexico with guns.
"There are warning signs that do say that as you're driving down the freeway, before you enter Mexico," she says.
"Yeah, I was hoping there would be a turnaround point," he says, "but there never was."
When the government pays, the government controls.

That is the new sign. The one that was photographed right after this incident is a steel sign resting against that same barrier on the ground. ABout the size of a speed limit sign. That new sign was put up in response to the media attention the story is getting.Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

It happened once or twice when I was stationed at Fort Bliss in the mid 90's. One was an MP that chased someone from an off post housing area. He was down there for several months before they released him.
I don't think that it is wrong or an abuse for Mexico to hold him. What do you think happens when a Mexican is caught bringing something illegal into the US?
I also find it kind of hard to believe he was not aware he was crossing over. If there is no U turn then just stop your damn car before driving into another country with firearms.
