While the "park"
is open to all, the mean spirited barrier of steel plate partly
monitored by armed federal agents keeps much of the diversity
on the south side.
Bullets do whiz over
the border from time to time. This is a news report from Tijuana
on just such a celebration not a quarter mile from the Tijuana
River Estuary and Border Field State Park.
The celebrations really
are a real tourist attraction and it's a shame we can't send more
U.S. taxpayer dollars south to maybe armor all the cars to make
everybody safe.
Afterall, it isn't
the drug cartels shooting people, it's the guns. It isn't the
drug cartels beheading people, it's the knives.
Yes, it is terrible
that we have that federal fortress in the middle of the park.
The United States Border Patrol Imperial Beach Station sure makes
the place seem unfriendly.
Not to worry! These
Zetas people come and visit often.
