“Not only that, from a couple friends I know living in AZ and TX very close to the border, most of the news is being heavily filtered onto the national scene with regards to the violence and drugs associated with ‘the unrest’ in Mexico. Cross border hits (murder on US soil, kidnappings, beatings, cuttings) are common place now not to mention local LEO’s are doing very little to stop incoming product. We here do not even get 1/100th of the news of what’s happening now.”
You’re right about that. If not for our retired border agents and their great reports, we wouldn’t see much.
Death and destruction continue to intensify

Second that, I live right on the border, am always locked and loaded. I think our government is scared to let Americans know the truth about how bad it really is in Mexico for fear of causing mass panic here. Believe me, the violence is heading further N every day. Think Chicago is bad, wait till what’s happening down S hits there.
