Fourteen people were killed on Sunday in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico's murder capital located on the US border, including 10 party-goers shot dead at two homes, Chihuahua state authorities said.
In one attack, gunmen opened fire on a pool party in central Ciudad Juarez "killing three women and a man and wounding five other women, all of whom were wearing swim suits," the chief prosecutor's office said in a statement.
Two suspects in the attack were arrested later, it added.
In another brazen, pre-dawn attack on a private house, a group of gunmen riddled party-goers with bullets killing six people - three died on scene, three in hospital, the statement said.
The bodies of four other men, "showing signs of torture with several shots through the heads," were found in other parts of the city, which is across the border from El Paso, Texas.
One of the murder victims was Jimenez town official Jose Luis Amaya, the office added.
Ciudad Juarez is Mexico's most violent city where drug cartels fight daily over drug smuggling routes into the United States.
So far this year, the city has seen 1,853 murders, 45 per cent more than the first eight months of last year (1,285), according to an AFP tally based on official reports.
For all of 2009, Ciudad Juarez's murder rate reached 2,660, the highest in the country.
They’re making Chicago look bad.
Sounds like there might be some “racial profiling” going on in Mexico.
And this is spilling over into our border states.
I have an aunt and uncle who live in Laredo, Texas who are considering their ranch which has been in the family for generations.
Illegal aliens MUST be stopped.
Please help Texas watch her borders.
Watch live on 14 cameras and report illegal alien invaders.
Night cams in operation

Does it work? Yes.
Recently caught on cam and reported:
String of illegals running through brush with backpacks
Numerous sightings of boats crossing the river
Numerous vehicles late at night in isolated areas
First sentence should read, ‘condsidering SELLING their ranch..’
I think the Mexican Army is part of the problem.
Dear Lord how long.

Anyone who wants to see the present situation in Mexico need look no further than here, a rogue site operated by a computer security specialist out of Northern Mexico, at the risk of his life.

Aren’t guns illegal in Mexico ? How could this be happening ?
Too bad the cameras aren't synced with a couple of remote controlled Remington 7mm sniper rifles or the Gatling guns from the C130's or Apache helicopters.
LOL That is funny.
Messyco is corrupt beyond repair. That's why we need a wall.
If this goes on long enough, may the cartels will just wipe each other out.
Ping!
If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.
