What border, country, county, city?
Ping!
If these lowlifes want to commit suicide, I say oblige them and annihilate every single one of them who attempts to do so.
“Who” are the Zetas?? When I was young, the Zetas were Sorority Girls,, not always ‘nice’, but certainly not of the calliber that we needed to be warned by Public Safety about them..
I surrender already.
CHANNEL 5 NEWS sources are tracking reports of the zetas preparing for a counter-assault on the Reynosa area.
That makes it just south and west of Haringen Texas just south of the border.
From Wikipedia:
Los Zetas is a criminal organization in Mexico dedicated mostly to international illegal drug trade. This drug cartel was founded by an elite force of assassins from Mexican Army deserters and is now integrated by corrupt ex-federal, state, and local police officers, as well as ex-Kaibiles from Guatemala.
This group of highly trained gunmen was first hired as a private mercenary army for Mexico’s Gulf Cartel. Since the arrest of its leader, Osiel Cárdenas Guillen, as well as other events, the two entities became a combined trafficking force, with the Zetas taking a more active leadership role in drug trafficking.[2][3][4][5] Since February 2010 Los Zetas have gone independent and became enemies of its former employer/partner, the Gulf Cartel.
Los Zetas are led by Heriberto “El Lazca” Lazcano and are considered by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) as probably being the most technologically advanced, sophisticated and violent paramilitary enforcement group in Mexico.[6][7] Los Zetas have expanded their operations to Italy with the ‘Ndrangheta.[8]
The ‘Zetas’ are Mexican Army troops who left and signed on with the drug cartels as enforcers.
There’s quite a bit of evidence that they are active in Texas. I don’t know that we’ve seen them here in AZ, yet.
"Zetas Preparing for Assault on Reynosa"
Hell, I was wondering what damn planets for a while.
Umm US-Mexico border, Reynosa (city) Tamaulipas (state) Mexico south of the Rio Grande Valley, McCallen (city), Texas (state)
I thought this was going to be a thread about Scientology.
SEAL THE BORDER!
That's some funny stuff, right there. I have no doubt these guys are some cold-blooded thugs. But, the words "elite" and "Mexican army" should NEVER be in the same sentence together.
You could outfit a half-dozen Boy Scout troops that would roll over even the most "elite" of elements of the Mexican army. Heck, even "mexican" and "army" don't really go together, when I see it in print.
Is this gonna be a surprise attack?

Self-ping for later reading.
True.
But when they arrive here with their tattoos and 12 year old mistresses, they will be real enough
and scary enough.
border bump
Me too.
