When do we get to start calling it an invasion?

When a foreign army crosses our border and takes shots at our guys, that would normally qualify.
The Mexican military has crossed into the United States 216 times in the past nine years, according to a Department of Homeland Security document and a map of incursions obtained by the Daily Bulletin.
Complicating the situation is that I'm sure that these incursions are not part of official Mexican policy. Corruption is so endemic in Mexico that it's most probably these are local commanders hiring out with drug cartels and coyotes. Unfortunately that same corruption means that official denials from Mexico are to be expected.

We can't do much about the messin Mexico, but we can hold our own representatives' feet to the fire. Don't let them nap on this one.
