#1 First stop: check all the Border Patrol and Customs agents guns for any sign of recent firing. If positive, lock the agent in jail.

Seriously tho': Clandestine Minuteman or vigilate action for the jailing of the two agents?

#2 I think more of Coyotes scaring people into paying them and cornering the market.

#4 Probably one coyote gang decided that another coyote gang was encroaching on their turf, and took care of the problem. Happens quite a lot out in the desert border zone, normally does not make it to the news however.

#5 along a known smuggling corridor near Tucson

A good place to put a strong section or two or fencing, I think.

#6 Yeah, sounds like a business dispute to me.

#7 In a zone where the local government don't bother to enforce its laws, don't be surprised if outlaws rule. Perhaps the next hot news items will be "highwayman" stopping traffic on I-10 and robbing/raping/killing miscellaneous travelers.

#8 IMO, "business dispute" but it doesn't mater. We know who is going to be blamed.

#11 There have always been banditos on the border to take advantage of the pollos, er, I should say migrants. Read Lines and Shadows by Joseph Wambaugh. The only news here is that AP reported it.
