[Az-Geocaching] Caution Tucson, border cachers

[Brian Casteel]

Yeah, I know the relations suck, and they aren't going to get any better
anytime soon.  I'm sorry, but if those morons were chanting "Osama!" they
really need to come up with original material.  If we have to worry about a
group of thugs that can't even flick a BIC, there isn't much to worry about.

Brian-Team A.I.,

I just went back over my deleted emails and couldn't find your post (what
was your Subject line?).  I guess it didn't make it to me yet.

Yes, I found that quote interesting too!  I have a strong feeling that
things are going to get out-of-hand at times.

The whole Mexico/U.S. relations is bad.  I just read an article on the
DRUDGE REPORT: It stated that at the beginning of the U.S./Mexico socceer
match that was held in Mexico City yesterday, that Mexican fans were booing
the U.S. national anthem; and some fans were chanting "Osama! Osama!".  Some
fans tried burning the American flag after the game, but ended up stomping
on it.

You're about an hour late, Rand.  :)  I just posted a link to an article
about this a little while ago.  I found one of the quotes pretty funny
though.  The guy organizing all of this is ex-military, and states that the
threat isn't being taken very seriously because due to the fact that over
half of the volunteers are combat veterans.  This should be interesting.

I don't know if there are any caches along the Arizona/Mexico border, but if
so, geocachers need to be aware of possible problems.  The 1000+ volunteers
of the MINUTEMAN PROJECT will be conducting patrols along part of the border
for the month of April.  A violent Central America-based gang (Mara
Salvatrucha, or MS-13) has issued orders to teach "a lesson" to the
Minuteman volunteers.  There could be some problems for anyone in the area,
and should be aware.
