HOUSTON: The protesters of citizen protest groups have decided to shut down ports of entry between the United States and Mexico in coming few days. These ports includes six Texas ports, four in Arizona, two in New Mexico and five in California.
Stasyi Barth, the event organizer said that the event of closure the ports is for patriotic Americans who feel strongly about our nation’s sovereignty and bringing our Marine, Sgt. Tahmooressi, home.
Sgt. Tahmooressi, ex Marine, was held in a Mexican jail for allegedly entering Mexico with weapons that are illegal in that country, however, he claims the entry was accidental.
“We are standing up for law enforcement, not against them,” Barth continued. “This is a peaceful protest to air our grievances to our government, as allowed by the Constitution.”
In Texas, the group plans on blocking ports of entry located at Laredo, Rio Grande City, Presidio, Hildago, Brownsville and Del Rio.
