"So after you cross the border at Fort Hancock..."

Acapulco, Mexico – 7 dead bodies were found Sunday dumped at a bus stop in Zihuatanejo, a remote town in the Pacific coastal area, police said. The 7 bodies found were bullet-riddled. Over the weekend, 20 people were at least killed as continuous drug violence in the famous coastal and resort destinations stretch worsen.
El Diarion de Zihuatanejo, a local newspaper, published a photo showing a dead man, half naked, feet tied to a pole along the street and with messages on top of his bloody and helpless body. The signed messages were claimed to be coming from the Knights Templar, drug cartel La Familia’s pseudo religious offshoot. In Mexico, drug gangs are commonly known for leaving messages with threats and warnings at most crime scenes.
Police found the 7 bodies early Sunday morning in the beach town popular to American and local tourists. 2 weeks ago, 35 bodies, tortured and killed were found after being thrown in the main street of Veracruz, a seaport city in the Gulf coast of Mexico.
Police has not yet issued an official statement regarding the motive of the crime this Sunday morning while drug gangs are continuously fighting along the cities in the Pacific coastal region. Another homicide was reported in Zihuatanejo just a few hours before the 7 bodies were found by local police. In Apacapulco, located south of Zihuatanejo, 12 were killed, 10 men and 2 women, in separate attacks reported Saturday and early Sunday morning. Authorities are not yet ascertained if the attacks and killings were related at all.
And we’re importing this sewer.
"So after you cross the border at Fort Hancock..."
First thing I thought of.
End the war on drugs. Legalize ‘em.
No more prohibition murders. No more countless billions spent on useless “enforcement” or “deterrence”.
Darn...you beat me to it.
Great movie BTW.

So much for the “sleepy fishing village”. This is the quaint village next to the resort town of Ixtapa. Cute, beautiful place with nice beaches and snorkling. What a shame.
Heads will roll!......
Two of the greatest places were Alcapulco and Zhuatinejo. They love Americans there. Then the drug violence. If you go you stay in your hotel...
More bodies at the feet of the administration? Project Gun Walker??? Faster and Furiouser.
Granted one can not run and hide, but with all the places on this planet that are beautiful why on earth does any one go to places like this to vacation?
There is a real drug war in Mexico, but the Government isn’t holding up their end of the fight.
Waiting to handle these cases with Civilian Courts and laws is not going to cut it.
Martial law, and Rules of Engagement allowing Government to shoot to kill and take no prisoners is the only way to rid that country of it’s Drug Lord’s.
While the Civilian authorities are trying to build cases the Cartels are killing the civilian law.How can you build a case when people are frightened to testify, because they just looked out their window and saw 7 bodies dumped in the street.Even the top law enforcement officers are either paid off or killed. Surely they know who the Dealers are.Attack their homes and wipe them out,thats the only thing that will work at this point. Try to get them in court and you die.
Praying this doesn’t reach Puerto Vallarta. I have family visiting there. :(
Both “enforcement” and “deterrence” with the associated state run departments are permanently ingrained into the welfare state. Like the EPA, they are here to stay.
My supposition is that it will.
I’m asking now, are there any legal businesses governed by law in nations that respect the law, that allow, or at least condone, the things you mention ?
If your niece was working for a legal business protected by law, she’d still be doing it.
