Jon Hammar, a former Marine held in Mexico on gun charges, has been in a Mexican prison for four months on what is being called a trumped-up federal weapon charge. He was arrested Aug. 13 in Matamoros after he declared to Mexican customs agents a shotgun he planned to use for hunting in Costa Rica. He’s been held in jail since August and chained to a bed.

TODAY - FOX News host Bill O’Reilly told America’s Newsroom that if US Marine is not released from jail in Mexico by Christmas he is going to organize a national boycott of Mexico.

Swell. What exactly is there to boycott? Pinatas, cheap labor and tequila?

Obama could help but he's taking a long vacation...

I'm going to check out imports from Mexico and see if we have any....oh..wait a minute...

As soon as I heard of this story I knew that the State Dept. would have to forced by public outrage to do anything, the regime doesn't hold US Marines in high regard. The same goes for that Christian Pastor (also a US citizen) being held and tortured in Iran.

At least he's trying to do something. More than can be said for those whose job it is.

Wellllllllllll Good on him for that.

Sometimes he stands up for what's right.

I still think that somehow, at some level he may turn out to be a stooge of the oligarchy.

I hope not.
