BREAKING: Multiple Ranches in Laredo Texas Taken Over By Los Zetas (HOAX)
TheCypressTimes.com ^ | 07/24/2010 | Digger

Posted on 07/24/2010 8:46:47 AM PDT by Patriot1259

... The ranches are said to be "near Mines Rd. and Minerales Rd. about 10 miles NW of I-35".

Whether it is lone members or squads is not certain.

Anonymous sources in law enforcement in the Laredo area tonight have passed on word that US law enforcement agencies are in the area and are weighing their options regarding the ranches. The media has been silent on this incident and some law enforcement in the area says that they are furious that the media is not reporting the whole story of the continued violence along the border. Their frustrations are understandable because keeping the truth suppressed continues to hamper law enforcement from receiving the true support they need along the border.

The ranch assaults come on the heals of attacks in Nuevo Laredo that shut the city down as a gun-battle raged in the streets. Los Zetas blocked off intersections with vehicles and used fragmentation grenades to attack Mexican law enforcement. In the end 12 were killed and 21 injured in the assaults. Citizens in the area were told to stay in their homes and bullets whizzed all around. ...

Thoughts? I’ve read from Laredo news site that it did happen.

From what I’ve read, the ranches are a northwest of Laredo and maybe even in another county. The story may still be factual.

Look, most or all of us don't disagree that the situation in the southwest with respect to cartel incursion is extremely serious. But your language tends to the hyperbolic when describing the situation in the northwest. Yes, there have been a few isolated grows up here strongly suspected of having cartel links. But jumps from this to "stay out of the woods", "knife at throat", "they have control", etc., AS IT PERTAINS TO THE SITUATION HERE NOW, is a stretch and makes you look like a raving nutcase.

“No, Texas Hasn’t Been Invaded

Twitter exploded a while ago about this story, which claims that heavily-armed Los Zetas gunmen of the Gulf Cartel have taken over ranches on the U.S. side of the border.

My curiosity got the better of me, and so I called the Laredo Police Department, and had a delightful chat with the acting watch commander, Sgt. Perez.

Sgt. Perez informed me that I was her seventh caller about this claim since she came on duty this afternoon. She stipulated two things that blows holes in the invasion claim.

1. The location of the alleged invasion is outside of their city-limits jurisdiction, so they would not be involved, and;
2. while they would not be involved in any law enforcement response outside of their jurisdiction, they work closely with the county sheriff’s office and would know if such an event is occurring.

She also provided me the number of the Sheriff’s Department. The deputy that answered the phone there was less bemused, having also dealt with this rumor multiple times in a short amount of time. She also told me that there was no invasion and no law enforcement siege, and that deputies were continuing normal operations.”

Mind? If you don't have any upon arrival, a quantity will be issued to you.

It would be VERY NICE NEWS INDEED if this wasn't true!!!

The location of the alleged invasion is outside of their city-limits jurisdiction

Well, now, that brings a huge DUH.

Ranches are usually NOT within city limits. At least not where I am familiar with. Or, I've just now made a fool of myself.

Wouldn't be the first time...

OK, I’ll be sure and keep a good look out for the cartel snipers when I go to my favorite Columbia River fishing hole later today.

Illegal aliens killing Americans sure is funny!

Kimberly McDaniel (23), killed by illegal alien while jogging in the Columbia River Gorge.

Exactly one year after a jogger was hit and killed by a driver in the Columbia River Gorge, detectives arrested a suspect they had been following for months.

Rocendo Rosales-Corona, 25, was arrested in Lodi, Calif., on Saturday, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office.

Kimberly Powell, 23, died of her injuries after the wreck, which occurred July 14, 2006.

The driver did not stop to help the injured woman but instead drove away, leaving behind the car's sideview mirror and plenty of questions.

...Both parents said they were disappointed that Rosales-Corona was in the country at all and able to work in Oregon.

Authorities said Rosales-Corona has a criminal record in California but specifics were not available.

"You know I'm thinking, if he wasn't here illegally, he never would have been there, and it never would have happened," Janet Tremain said. "But you know, there's nothing that I can do to change that."

The directions are way off though according to google maps. The area they are describing is northwest of Laredo.


Yep you are correct. Another article describes the location as being NorthWest about 10 miles and then says it is South of Laredo. Secondly if it is NW about 10 miles that is outside the city limits of Laredo so the Laredo PD has nothing to do with it. It would be in the hands of Webb County Sheriffs Dept. Article posted by AuntB] .. [The approximate location of the U.S. ranches are10 miles northwest of I-35 off Mines Road and Minerales Annex Road. Just off 1472 (Mines road) near Santa Isabel Creek south of the city of Laredo, Texas.] Directions are screwed up for sure.

HOAX according to this article

Did you miss 0bama’s Green Farming and Ranching Initiative? In order to cut down on CO2 emissions all farms and ranches are ordered to move into towns and cities reducing shipping distances. Since far fewer cattle can be raised on concrete and asphalt the resulting reduction in methane is another positive side effect for the environment.
