They should have read the book.
Coming here soon.
So much for the “Valley of Paradise.”
The evil and deep corruption that enables these cartels is so heart-breaking.
The ATF, FBI and CIA will NOT be smuggling arms to them.
Shipments to the cartels will continue as scheduled.
Let’s import all third world .
When Mexico completely comes here , we will become Mexico.
When is 60 elderly? WTF!!!
Yeah!
Biden won’t help. He’s busy licking Juicy Smellit’s wounds.
.... I get a real kick out of how writers always have to point out that Bodies that were recovered .... Were actually .... "Dead" Bodies .... And Not just "Bodies" ..... Cracks me up every time ....
In rural Mexico?
“ Government data shows 948 people were murdered in Zacatecas in the first 10 months of this year, an increase of 342 compared to the same period in 2020.”
That’s a significant increase.
When Mexico completely comes here , we will become Mexico.

Yep the world is ever evolving. When Columbus sailed the
ocean blue those that followed found redskins occupying this
part of the world. They were rounded up by the invaders and
put on Reservations. The invaders then brought in Africans
to do the manual labor and cook, clean and wash the clothes
for them. Now they are becoming a much larger part of the
ruling group. Evolution/change will continue.
What exactly are you implying?
pnhead
60 is elderly?
No ransom. Hand picked victims....smells fishy to me.
I wouldn’t touch illegal drugs.
This is a very good reason why.
There’s no way I would ever want to help fund people like

Maybe they are basing the definition on whose property was closest. For example, “Senior” at McDonalds is 55. Some places it starts at 50. He should have asked for his free small coffee fist.
...small coffee fiRst.
MLP: Cringe-worthy redundancies, and an admission...and many more at the link
Coeur d'Alene Press
December 9, 2021Waste not, want not, as the old adage goes. Words shouldn’t pile up like useless trash on a dump site. The poor fellows have value, says your Mrs. Language Person. Dignity! Due respect!
Each word deserves its place in the linguistic sun. Synonyms must be separated, carved out of the jumble (but never “separated out,” as reader J.P. noted).
Please, Dear Reader, say it isn’t merely word nerds who balk at such cringe-worthy redundancies. They’re simply not where it’s at. (Shudder! Two place references need not occupy the same sentence. Sigh.)
If two words essentially mean the same thing, they should part ways. To MLP, hearing them conjoined is like nails screeching down the old chalkboard. Spare her the agony.
MLP begs your supportive efforts to avoid, correct, and abhor these common redundant phrases:
Where she’s at. It’s where she is. She is at home. Never, never “where it’s at.”
These ones. These already specify. Which ones? These. “These ones” is overkill.
Unexpected surprise. As opposed to an expected surprise? Come now.
Basic necessities. This tired cliché may be argued, as occasionally something unusual may become a necessity. But if something is “basic” it generally is a necessity, so good editors tend to eliminate one or the other.
ATM machine and HTML language. It pays to know one’s acronyms. Automated Teller Machine and Hypertext Markup Language are sufficient; no need to repeat the last word. Rather like the Sahara, without the desert (“sahara” is Arabic for desert).
Added bonus. A bonus is something extra. It’s added already, so an added bonus is repetitive.
