U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents seized 10 guns and thousands of rounds of ammunition from a southbound pickup truck in Southwestern Arizona on Saturday. On Thursday, CBP officers found rifle barrels, firearm accessories and gun powder in a tractor-trailer attempting to exit the U.S. for Mexico in Pharr, Tex. And on Wednesday, CBP agents in Laredo, Tex., discovered a collection of weapons and ammunition hidden in a second truck destined for Mexico. [More]Is that an "arsenal" due to the quantity of weapons seized, or a "spate" because there were three seizures?
I'm so confused.
And is it me, or does "heightened alertness" sound like something they'd make fun of George Bush for saying?
Gosh--they're making more noise about this than if they'd seized a Democrat-sanctioned ChiCom ship of full-auto AK-47s...
A lot more noise.
