Default Mexico Border TFR No that bad

THIS TFR is "not that bad". How long before LAPD wants a UAV to loiter over
L.A. ?


Imagine what the presence of a UAV chasing after some car would do to the
television ratings of live car chases.


Anyone know why the TFR is ONLY 300nm long and doesn't stretch the entire
border of Mexico? We're pretty much telling the Mexicans exactly how to
avoid the very UAV that's trying to detect them....


Perhaps they are equipped with the ability to see and detect at a much
larger range than they need to fly?
