Mexico's cartels always find ways to put on some kind of sick clown show to draw attention, and sure enough they did so again with some sort of victory parade of vehicles through a Mexican town in the state of Guanajuato. According to the U.K. Daily Star (hat tip: Drudge Report):
A convoy of armoured cars reportedly belonging to El Chapo’s cartel have been filmed brazenly driving into a Mexican town in a show of strength.
The scenes were recorded in Guanajuato in central Mexico as the Sinaloa Cartel were reportedly showing their strength after forming an alliance with a local gang.
In the video, filmed by someone inside a parked car, vehicles are seen barreling into the village while armed cartel members stand out of the vehicle's sun rooves.
Several more armoured cars follow behind in the convoy, including an all-black armoured van and what is thought to be a silver Audi.
Other vehicles including pickup trucks complete with sirens and police-style flashing lights are seen.
The Daily Star has a video at its link but this shareable one, from GrilloNautas2 on YouTube, is better:
Which is bad enough as it is -- it sounds like they're winning something and doing their victory dance to fling it in the face of the state. They have good reason to: Mexico's President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, far from beating the hell out of the cartels as they deserve, has a 'hug a cartel' policy, and cartels are treating that with the contempt it deserves. The parade of drug dealer cars would be awful no matter what city it happened to in Mexico.

Or it could be safe in the same way Bensonhurst, Ozone Park,Arthur Ave were safe in NYC even in the craziest of times.
I can see people defending their towns with IEDs in the future.
“Plenty of Bush League Republicans still want to turn the USA into North Mexico.”
My impression is that they want the cheap maid/mistress rather than the cocaine.
It is the democrats that want to open the border to drug dealers
They also love their cut of the money from the drug trade.
Maybe Mexico needs a dictator. It is said that when Mussolini ruled Italy even the Mafia minded the laws. Maybe corruption is so bad that democratic means are impossible in that land. My fear is that the corruption is seeping into the USA.
Guanajuato city is still a safe city, beautiful and fun, no cars downtown, great shopping. The cartels are respecting it so far as they send their families there.
Guanajuato State is another story. That is where the Huachicol Triangle is located, which is formed by the municipalities of Salamanca, Apaseo El Grande, León, Irapuato and Celaya.
That is where United Cartels (CU) alliance is forming to fight the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, composed of the Gulf Cartel (CDG), Los Zetas and the Sinaloa Cartel.
The Jalisco New Generation Cartel have agreed to support José Antonio Yépez, “El Marro”, in Michoacán, to oppose “El Mencho” and his cartel.
The video was taken in Villagrán in Guanajuato State. It shows the Sinaloa Cartel (CDS), run by Ismael Zambada “El Mayo” and the Chapitos (children of “El Chapo” Guzmán) arriving to reinforce the United Cartels against the Jalisco New Generation Cartel.
The two alliances are pretty well formed up. Full scale war across northern and western Mexico is about to begin. Both sides have armor and heavy weapons and many drones.
Here comes the Syrian civil war....only next door. Los Federales have learned to duck and cover.
