SNIPPET: "MEXICO CITY – The deputy police chief in the northern Mexican border city of Nogales was killed along with his bodyguard, Sonora state police said Friday.
Adalberto Padilla and bodyguard Ivan Sepulveda were shot Thursday night while traveling in a police vehicle. The assailants were described as men inside an SUV who opened fire with AK-47 assault rifles, the weapon of choice for Mexico’s drug cartels.
A 16-year-old bystander was wounded during the attack in the city just across the border from Nogales, Arizona."
SNIPPET: "In other drug-related violence, a local police chief and his brother were found decapitated in the northern state of Nuevo Leon, bordering Texas.
The Agualeguas municipal chief and his brother were discovered after state police received a telephone call early Friday about a patrol vehicle abandoned near a village more than 100 kilometers (60 miles) west of Monterrey, Nuevo Leon’s capital, state Attorney General Alejandro Garza y Garza said.
The killers used the victims’ blood to paint the patrol vehicle with the initials “CDG,” signifying Cartel del Golfo, or Gulf cartel, one of Mexico’s most powerful drug outfits."

Sounds like Iraq on steroids.
Mexico is our friend...Amnesty now!
It’s been going on for awhile — the main-stream media doesn’t choose to report on it often.
Too bad.
Knowledge is power and leads to informed wot/gwot.
I think I will add Mexican police chiefs to those I approve of for immigration or amnesty now...in addition to beautiful women....from anywhere.
They’re just doing the beheadings that Americans won’t do.
Ammo stocked up, eyes open and guns cleaned and lubed. I hope you don’t live by the Mexican border. Not a good place to be these days.
That’s a good idea.
Sincerely, those police chiefs (for the most part) are very brave in deed.
All cultures are equal. Who are we to judge?
“...live by the Mexican border.”
I don’t, but so many Americans do and that’s why I post these threads.

And also the weapon of choice for people who don't belong to drug cartels, but would just like to be ready if/when TSHTF.
Legalize.
Yep. There is a nation in unrest just on our border, but the news media never talks about that.
Meanwhile, 0bama, McCain, and the Democrats are trying to import it into America and give it amnesty.
I have been hearing about Mexican beheadings for years now, and when I originally heard it I assumed that Islam was making extensive inroads in Mexico, but now I am beginning to question that assumption. Does anyone know if Islam is making extensive inroads in Mexico and if not what is the symbolism and purpose behind the beheadings? I can see the intimidation factor, but there are other ways, such as choking someone on their own gonads.
I’m a second amendment supporter.
Again, you dodge the issue of my original statement. I said that Hayworth has shown more class than his supporters, and that his supporter should follow his lead.
No.
If it wasn’t drugs; it would be something else.
Really.
Exactly
We cannot IMPOSE our cultural values on the little “Brown” people.
They are free to lob off the heads of their neighbors because thats what they do. We need to support them in this.
I learned that at many years of lunch time conversations with NPR listening work colleagues, as I was being told how clueless I was.
So hang in there Paco!
America supports you, and they sell really cheap baskets in Warez.
There are Muslims in Mexico and yes, they are expanding.
Most of the beheadings though that I have read about in Mexico are drug cartel related.
