"Mexico may sue U.S. over pepper-ball projectiles"

As previously posted, a small number of paintball-style non-lethal weapons have been used by the Border Patrol to non-lethally protect themselves against rock-throwing illegal aliens and smugglers.

Mexican politicians complained, "high-level" meetings were held. Then, Presidential Nephew George P. Bush went to Mexico and dissed the Border Patrol and their use of the weapons.

Now:

Mexican Foreign Relations Secretary Luis Ernesto Derbez said Tuesday his government will consider helping migrants sue U.S. officials for improper use of so-called "pepper ball" non-lethal projectiles...

With "friends" like these, we need a new president who isn't so friendly with them.
