Yet another casualty has fallen prey to the racist upgraded security measures taking place on our southern border since 9/11. They’re the bars and chachki vendors of Mexican border towns.

Once a staple of a Spring Break trip for college students, the cheap trinkets and lax drinking requirements available south of the border are increasingly cast aside for the alcohol-fueled pleasures of South Padre Island [Texas], according to Matamoros [Mexico] business owners.

And stricter requirements on travel documents needed to re-enter the United States and growing concern over border violence this year are expected to only drive them further away.

Buzz kill. First that wall is going to kill the little woodland creatures, now this. Where will the underaged go to drink? Won’t anyone help?
