Mooch and others have held up signs with a hashtag to bring back to girls kidnapped by Muslim terrorists in Nigeria. Why isn’t there at least a fraction of the same outcry in this country for Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi? He’s basically being held hostage in a Mexican prison for accidenly crossing into Mexico with his firearms. Obama and Eric Holder didn’t get the same treatment by the Mexicans when they ran guns into Mexico that resulted in the death of hundreds of Mexicans from Fast and Furious. Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi is the second American held hostage in a Mexican prison in less than a year. The other one was freed around Christmas (no thanks to the US Government). Yet Obama, Lurch Kerry and the corrupt American media don’t utter a peep about Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi. The only exception is this small mention by CNN on Friday that was put deep into their website that you had to click through a bunch of links to get tp.

For more than a month, a U.S. Marine and Afghanistan war veteran has been held in a Tijuana, Mexico, prison, fighting for his release after being charged with a crime he says he did not commit.
Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi said he accidentally crossed into Mexico around 10 p.m. on March 31 with three personal firearms while on his way to meet friends in San Ysidro, California.
Tahmooressi, 25, had recently moved to the area to get treatment for his post-traumatic stress disorder and was “essentially living out of his truck,” his mother, Jill, told CNN.
He is currently being held in the La Mesa penitentiary in Tijuana on a weapons charge and awaits a May 28 court date, according to the Mexican attorney general’s office.
“I accidentally drove into Mexico with 3 guns … a rifle (AR-15), a .45 cal pistol and a 12 gauge pump shotgun with no intensions (sic) on being in Mexico or being involved in any criminal activities,” Tahmooressi wrote in a statement of innocence to U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter. “I have rights to all 3 weapons. They are under my name … Please help me.”
