How close is this town to the U.S. border?

Yesterday I watched the movie My Darling Clementine, the John Ford classic about the shooting at the OK Coral. It is of course one of many movies on the subject and possibly the least accurate. Today Tombstone exists to celebrate the events at the OK coral.

Given there were something less then 10 shot dead in the gunfight and the peripheral killings, one can only wonder about the film making bonzana awaiting producers in 2070.

The old west sagas pale when compared to the new west

Interesting.

From your additional link:

Three different police stations were attacked by men using "explosive devices" on Friday, April 23rd.

Reynosa city officials have historically never elaborated on what kind of "explosive devices" are used in the attacks but Mexico's Ministry of National Defense has confirmed the seizure of grenades, rocket launchers, rockers, mortars, landmines, IEDs and other artillery.

SwinneySwitch:

Have you heard anything about a bus which was stopped along the way from Monterrey to Reynosa? I heard that the gunmen took several riders off and told the bus driver to keep on driving to Reynosa.

Please let me know if you do. I cancelled a trip to Monterrey today because of this story.

seizures of heavy artilery and weapons

Lets make it clear, this was not a gunbattle, it was a firefight in a civil war.
