"RINCON PENINSULA, Texas -- U.S. Border Patrol agents on the American side of the Rio Grande were forced to take cover Friday night when high-caliber weaponry was fired at them from the Mexican side of the river, sources told FoxNews.com.
The weapons were fired at the U.S. side of the riverbank in the area of the Rincon Peninsula across the Rio Grande from Reynosa, Mexico, at about 8:30 p.m., sources said. Bullets ricocheted into an area where Border Patrol agents were positioned, Rep. Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, told FoxNews.com.
Border Patrol sources confirmed Gohmert's account, and said the shots may have been fired by .50-caliber weapons."
They don't know how many people got across. They don't know what if anything they were carrying. They don't know if it was Central Americans or others.
They don't know SQUAT.
I'm just praying that a biological weapon or something else did NOT just come across our border.

Third Barbary War
I'll let Ish over at MININERD explain it.
"In 1805, a young Marine First Lieutenant by the name of Presley O’Bannon led a mixed force of eight United States Marines and 500 Greeks and Berber mercenaries in the assault and capture of city of Derna, it what was then called Tripoli. This was the first time in history that the United States flag was raised in victory on foreign soil. This action was memorialized in a line from the Marines’ Hymn -— “to the shores of Tripoli” — and by the Mameluke sword worn by all Marine Corps commissioned officers to this day."
