Eh?
If you haven't been following the news, there's a former Marine who was jailed a few months ago after crossing the border in Mexico on his way to a vacation in Costa Rica. He had a shotgun that he was going to use for hunting. Mexican "authorities" claimed it was one inch shorter than the 25" they allow. They've been calling the parents attempting to extort money. Please consider lending your voice to his release. Below are links to a couple of petitions and to a Facebook group dedicated to his release. A young Pastor in my church knows him from his time in south Florida and got me involved in the FB group. Thanks!
