Does anyone know how to connect with the families of these men? Maybe we could help them and they could help us by adding strength through numbers. Maybe some of you Texans could reach out? Watch the videoContinue

Yes, these sick sad people get their jollies out of seeing their comments disseminated for all to see. I don't comment on the posts because that is what they want... but if John chooses to live in Matamoros or not, he still deserves respect and to be found. John chooses to live in Matamoros because he can make a living with his own efforts and not live off SSI or food stamps or whatever and he chooses to live there to be an involved father in his children's lives. To live in the US when his children are in Matamoros would be unreasonable. Many times it takes several hours to cross the bridges there and should an emergency arise, like it did with his daughter that night, he might not be able to get there in time.
Well ppl like that dont get to me Renee. Our consulate ppl are Americans also and they work there so go figure.
Someone commented about it being ridiculous for him being over there... apparently he missed the part about John LIVING there for the past four years....
The clip is now posted on the TV's website....

Deb did a wonderful job on the News show... if they put it on their website, I will post to here or Deb will.. she also made a nice mention about this site also....
Took Johns story to the news today. Maybe that will stir some awareness in the area and we will hear something. Got a call back from the US Cons. office and they wanted to know if I would send them a copy of the Mexican police report that I went and filed there last week..........What a joke. They are in the same city and want me to cross the border and do all the work for them. What a waste of tax payers money.
Well finally had a reply from a TV station in the valley wanting to know if I would talk on camera about what is happening here. This and the online article may be a start to get something or someone on the move around here.
The article is up online... please repost to anyone you can think of.....

Thanks!!
Yes, when I talked to the reporter, I mentioned John's three children, living with his ex-wife, and I can mention his "ailing mother"... and sadly, you are correct about the attitudes... They are great at posturing, but when it comes to real action, they never seem to get anything accomplished...
