Los Tigres del Norte, one of Mexico's best-known bands, was fined in 2017 for playing a narcocorrido: a song glorifying drug trafficking. However, the sanction did little to diminish the band's popularity.

A narcocorrido (Spanish - drug ballad) is a subgenre of the Regional Mexican corrido (narrative ballad) genre, from which several other genres have evolved. ... Narcocorrido lyrics refer to particular events and include real dates and places.[3] The lyrics tend to speak approvingly of illegal activities, mainly drug trafficking.

The fact that democrats and Kamala aren’t embarrassed by this speaks volumes.

There was a YUGE group of Latinos for Trump, on Thursday night, at Tucker’s Pres Trump event, in PHX.

Makes sense to me that the Cartels would want her as pResident.

Although I don’t think I’d want the general public to know it if I was Kamala.

And yet she brags about how she ‘went after the cartels’ as AG.

(the rest of the story is probably that she went after them for a %, not to put them in prison )

This “Los Tigres del Norte” filth, and all those in the same mold, needs to be hunted down and exterminated with extreme prejudice, just as the IDF is doing with Hamas and Hezbollah. And for the same reason.

The cartels and the Mexican drug trash are cut from the same cloth as the islamonazis. They want to exterminate US from ocean to ocean and establish their new “La Raza Unida” wetback fiefdom.

May the incompetent, evil, lazy, corrupt, drug-addled filth meet their waterloo in the US and be driven back into their pit in Mejico and south. From which they can repent and start over.

I saw them once, almost accidentally, when they were much less famous in the early ‘90’s. They were a very polished, professional group of men with a wide variety of music.
