Joco Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 What American military personnel is being held in a Mexican jail? Are you describing the ex-Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi who was caught smuggling guns across the border? Notice that even Faux News has become quite on this subject? I think nobody but his mother wants him back once they looked at the real information. http://www.latimes.com/local/abcarian/la-me-ra-maybe-we-should-thank-mexico-20140606-column.html What authority in his or her right mind would fail to take serious action in the case of a young man who claimed to have accidentally crossed an international border with three loaded guns and enough ammo to take out an entire town square? What authority in his or her right mind would simply say, “OK, son. You made a mistake. Take your loaded rifle, your loaded shotgun, your loaded pistol and your 400 rounds of ammo and get the heck out of here.” “Mr. Tahmooressi demonstrated violent behavior, twice attempting to escape and suffering self-inflicted wounds, which led him to be placed in the infirmary. From that point on, he has been under constant medical watch and in good health.” He was also transferred from a prison to Tijuana to one in Tecate, where he is faring better, according to his mother.

Mainecoons Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 As to the topic, I'd be very concerned as an expat that this would fit into the category of politically demonstrating, which is not allowed here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Liana Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 ...i may be "off" w/this one, but i thought i read today that he was released. Dr. Mireles, political prisoner in Hermosillo since April 2014, has not been released. He has been hospitalized for the last 9 days for complications of high blood pressure and diabetes.

cbviajero Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I'm very impressed. Tells me that the people are very concerned and in fear of their lives.Mexicans are not shy about showing their disapproval of government actions through public protests,it happens on a daily basis.It suggests to me that Mireles doesn't have the support in his own state that some people think he has.
