Nine members of a Mormon family were killed on the Mexican side of the US-Mexico border, and authorities are investigating whether the attack was the result of mistaken identity. The slain victims include three women, four small children and two infants, family member Alex LeBaron said from Mexico. He said all nine were dual US-Mexican citizens. The victims were "all shot while in vehicles while driving," LeBaron told CNN. Investigators believe three vehicles traveling between the Mexican states of Sonora and Chihuahua were ambushed by criminal groups Monday evening, Mexican authorities said.

This is incorrect. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints teaches its members to obey the law of the country they reside in. It’s actually one of their Articles of Faith.
I’ve visited their church’s website (https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org ) and see nothing of what you claim.
Please provide proof for your allegation, otherwise, you’re either uninformed or deliberately bearing false witness against an entire denomination.
Treat cartel members the same as enemy combatants. No trial..just a firing squad.
It’s time we put a bounty on these animals. Hunt them down and kill them, their children, and their entire extended families.
Time to unleash hell on these mother f**kers.
I know hundreds of Latter-day Saints and not one promotes open borders. What they do teach is one should show charity towards those who are suffering and should view them as if they were Christ himself. Thus, when a refugee or a starving child shows up at the border, we have an ethical duty to help them. This does not mean grant them citizenship or bypass the legal immigration process, it means if one is able, then feed and clothe and shelter them. And if it is safe, return them to their place of origin.
After all, aren’t Christians supposed to help the suffering? Aren’t we supposed to emulate the Good Samaritan?
So, why would your blood boil over something that is actually commanded by our God, Jesus Christ?
USA citizens need to get out of Mexico... NOW
Nothing like hundreds of thousands of targets for militarized cartels to make things dicey
Yes, let’s see how they spin this story.
From Facebook here are some details.
Kendra Lee Miller is with Brandy Spenst and 3 others.

On the morning of November 4th, 2019, three mothers in three vehicles, with fourteen children between them, set out from LaMora, a small family community in the mountains of northeastern Sonora. Two of them to see family in Chihuahua, and one of them to pick up her husband from the airport in Phoenix, AZ. They never made it. They were ambushed by the Mexican cartels; shot, burned, and murdered in cold blood. These were innocent civilians, American citizens simply trying to live peaceful lives.
For 11 hours, their families all over Sonora, Chihuahua, and the Midwestern US waited in fear and horror for any news of possible survivors. The first vehicle was found full of bullet holes and completely ablaze. Nita and the four of her seven children she had taken on the trip were burned to mostly ashes and only a few charred bones left to identify that all five had been inside. It appeared that one tried to escape as the front passenger door was open and the remains were partially in and out of the vehicle.
On another part of the road, about 10 miles ahead, were Christina, with her baby Faith in her vehicle, and Dawna with nine children in hers. They both were fired upon from ahead and Christina jumped out waving her arms to let the attackers know that it was women and children in the vehicles. She gave her life to try and save the rest. Dawna and two of her boys were also killed in the gunfire.
After witnessing his mother and brothers being shot dead, Dawna’s son Devin hid his 6 other siblings in the bushes and covered them with branches to keep them safe while he went for help. When he took too long to return, his 9 year old sister left the remaining five to try again. Devin arrived in LaMora at 5:30 pm, 6 hours after the ambush, giving the first news anyone had heard of his and Christina’s families.
Devin’s uncles armed themselves with guns and returned to try and find the hidden children, knowing many of them were injured. They didn’t get far before realizing they would be risking death, since there had been continual shooting for hours, all over the mountains near LaMora. The group of men waited a while for reinforcements, and around 7:30, found the hidden children. They found Christina’s baby Faith with the vehicle around her riddled with bullet holes. Somehow she had remained untouched, and alive. She was in her car seat, which looked to have been hurriedly placed on the floor of the vehicle by her mother for protection.
The search didn’t end there. Mckenzie, the 9 year old who’d gone for help, was missing. Soldiers who’d by then arrived, and the men of LaMora and nearby towns searched for two hours in the dark until they found her around 9:30.
The five of Dawna’s children who were injured were picked up by a waiting ambulance and treated at the local hospital until a helicopter sent by Mexican military came to pick them up. Their father David who had by then arrived from Tucson, Arizona, accompanied them to be life flighted to another helicopter waiting at the US border, from there to be transported to Phoenix.
Devin, his brother Jake, and Christina’s baby Faith, all uninjured, are now in the care of their aunts and grandmas in LaMora.

These folks are a polygamist break-off from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. No connection between the two. Kind of like Lutherans and Catholics.
“The groups are in competition, much as the Italian mafia and the Irish gangs competed with each other during prohibition.”
The Mafia md Irish gangs did not kill innocent women and children...and men.
I was refering to the murderers
I didn’t think of that. The cartels would wipe each other out giving intell to us.
There’s a new sheriff in town, who is not afraid to you our strength. He’s biting at the bit to jump into the fray against these two bit latin countries.
all he needs is the green light and bang,
You can check off
1. Illegal Immigration
2. Drug cartels
3. Socialism/Marism creeping to SA
4. Fear of China/Russia etc creeping in SA
5. Ultimately Cuba, Venesuala etc.
The Lebaron family has a long history of war against its own members, fratricidal power rivalries, murder of defectors, child in the way, too bad.
Look up Ervil Lebaron, 4 o’clock murders. (3 sets of simultaneous murders). Old Ervil left a hit list that his children were carrying out years after his death. Supposedly that’s subsided now.
Lebaron adolescent girls were also sent to the NXIVM cult for training. Supposedly as nannies.
There is a whole lot of violent mess in that family.
I’m starting to think this wasn’t a cartel hit at all. Or if it was it was a for hire hit.
Now there a a bloviation of epic proportions.
Protection rackets require the murder of innocent small business people both to establish, and to maintain. That is a constant no matter who is running them. Both the Italians and the Irish ran prostitution rackets, and never has there been enough voluntary participation to meet the demand. By the way. Syphilis was incurable, and gonorrhea only somtimes curable. Even if prostitutes weren’t eventually murdered for trying to escape the business (which tended to give other prostitutes ideas) they often died from those diseases. or stroke. Or crappy forced abortions.
I’m sorry setter. You seem to be confused.
I wasn’t talking about sanitized gangsters from Hollywood movies and pulp novels. I was instead referring to real life brutal crime organizations.
Please don’t assume that I am against protecting our country or building the wall.
Since this happened in Mexico, how did having a wall or not having a wall have anything to do with the event?
Huitzilopochtli, Tezcatlipoca,Tlaloc, Xiuhtecuhtli and Xipe Totec approve
Why are you promoting CNN?
“I think this happened in Mexico. I am not sure how the wall would have made a difference.”
He never said it would make a difference in this incidence. What it would do, however, is help prevent this sh!thole criminal activity from growing on THIS SIDE OF THE BORDER.
Got it?
you don’t burn alive someone that you accidentally targeted, this was retribution
