(46,416 posts)"blundered" into Mexico with weapons. I imagine Mexican jail isn't pleasant, but Mexico is simply following its own laws and procedures. He's not a POW, and he wasn't there for military duty--just an apparent dumbass.

The fun part: if Obama manages to get him back, the GOP will immediately figure out a reason to hang him by the nuts...they did with Bowe Bergdahl, right?

(182,990 posts)First of all he isn't in the service any more. "Marine" is being used in the "always a Marine" sense.
He has some psych issues ( probably from PTSD) including "hunter/prey" according to his mother.
He had been in Mexico earlier that day. Checked in and out if a hotel.
He tried to escape once earning him the nickname "Spider-Man".
Yes the jail is no picnic but he has been able to call several media resources including Glenn Beck's radio show.

(7,404 posts)It is striking how mainstream within the Tea Party this couple was, right down to being Rand/Ron Paul supporters.
And that the "war on drugs" was a player in this rampage.
No comment made on where this felon got his weapon. Indeed it is possible he had it before his felony conviction but would not that mean he would have to turn in his weapons.
This also shows that the death threats made against the parents of Bowe Bergdahl needs to be taken very seriously.

IMO a couple big R blunders were way back when those republicans sent the racist emails and no one lost their job over that. Another time, more emails when one of them 'prayed the president' (and his family) would die. Another one was Palins target on the faces of elected people.
