EDINBURG, Texas — Teams of gunmen have been running rampant in various communities near the Texas border, storming into homes demanding drugs or robbing victims at gunpoint.
In one night, a team of hooded gunmen carrying rifles stormed at least three homes, assaulting the victims inside while demanding cash or drugs. Just one day later, a team of gunmen shot a robbery victim and led authorities in a high speed chase and managed to flee.
Information provided to Breitbart Texas by the Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Office revealed that the attacks began on Sunday late night and continued onto early Monday morning where–in a span of hours–the gunmen struck three separate homes and unconfirmed information points to a possible fourth being ransacked.
In the first attack, three hooded gunmen stormed a house in a rural community near this border city. The gunmen ordered the family inside to get down on the floor while they looked for drugs. The gunmen stole various electronic items from the house.
Less than 30 minutes after the first robbery, authorities responded to another rural home near the border city of Mission. In that attack, the gunmen stormed into the house and struck the homeowner of the house in the head with one of the rifles. The gunmen demanded drugs as they kicked him several times in front of his family. The gunmen also stole various electronic items from the house.
About two hours later, authorities responded to a third home invasion where a team of five hooded gunmen stormed a house. The homeowner told authorities that he woke up to seeing the team of gunmen in his house. While no one was injured in that attack the gunmen stole a television on their way out.

Gang home invasions from border jumpers? Nice. Too bad the victims can’t file lawsuits against the fed gov for all damages. Boy, I bet they’d secure those borders real fast.
Thanks to exSenator Kay Bailey Hutchinson’s supporting law suits against the border and stopping the fence.
The Fed stooges do nothing because, after all, these marauders are just juvenile Dreamers, aren’t they?
This is failure of government’s main reason of existence: to protect the citizens.
When the Fed stooges don’t even do this, its time for the Revolution 2.0.
I lived in Edinburg for a little while in 1997. Not a bad town at all, but I was definitely at a disadvantage not speaking Spanish. On the day I moved away I locked my car (as I always did) with each trip up to my second floor apartment to fetch more of my stuff. My car was just about full and I was upstairs when I heard angry Spanish shouting coming from outside. I looked out my window and saw my next door neighbor come running around the building and chase some guy out of the parking lot. When I saw him a little later and asked what that was all about, he said that he’d seen this guy going from car to car trying the door handles. My neighbor got outside and started shouting just as the creep was getting to his car. I was so glad that I was moving that very day! All I could think about was my car loaded with my entire apartment’s worth of stuff, which really wasn’t all that much, I guess, but there were some decent electronics as well as a good load of clothes. If I had decided to save a little time by leaving my car unlocked between trips, and my neighbor hadn’t gone loco, that thief would’ve thought he’d hit the jackpot with my car.
THAT was my parting impression of Edinburg, unfortunately, and it sounds like it’s only gotten worse.
Mr. Trump: Build that wall!
Excellent? The very ad I thought of as I read the title.
That reminds me, I’ve got a book published in the 1970s.

It’s got lots of photos of various rangers from the beginning of Texas to modern 1970 Texas.
Thank Jorge Busho. He started the policies that Obama is following, viz. ceding the country to Latin crimigrant invaders.

As for the part about the fence forget it, that’s never going to happen. That river is too important to the land owners on the Texas side and we can’t put it on the Mexico side. From El Paso west is a whole different story, that fence already exist’s so building a true fence would be no problem.

Ain’t that the truth! She was a POS!
If ever there was a need for a “well regulated militia”.
Mail Order Tommy Guns!
Thank you!
I will check it out.
The Texas Rangers have been a pet project of mine all my life. I’ve read about everything published about them. This is why I was disappointed that L.H. McNelly was not one of the 8 rangers in the article I posted.
Info you may want.

Along the border, mexicans, yes, random targeting. . .they would NOT hit a residence where cartel connections/dealers/supporters/distributors would be. . .think ISIS is bad, they learned their trade from the cartels.
Post 35. . .old ranchers are being hit as well.
I looked it up. It’s $250.00 on Amazon and $248.00 on another site.
I’m thinking about getting one.
