Mexican Soldiers Kill Citizen Militia Members

Early in the morning on January 13, Mexican soldiers clashed with members of an armed citizen’s militia group. Multiple casualties were reported. Mexico’s government recently amped up its presence in the surrounding state of Michoacan after ongoing conflicts between armed civilians and drug cartel members have escalated. A recent push by the vigilante group to drive members of the Caballeros Templarios drug cartel out of the city of Apatzingan has led to an even more complicated situation. While heavily armed soldiers congregated in the center of Apatzingan, other units operating outside of the city tried to disarm some of the vigilantes. During the operation, some soldiers reportedly fired at members of the citizen’s group.

Is it any different than obama protecting terrorists here and abroad?

[MNDude]

the government and the cartel are basically one and the same now.

Why do you think so much of the violence in Mexico has ceased since the new president was elected?

[struggle]

Holy crap this sounds like the beginning of something bad.

[Windflier]

The United States Government, the media, and the Democratick (sicK) party are one and the same.

Ya left one out.

Anybody notice that no cartel members were killed by the government?

Very interesting that the Mexican government is far more interested in disarming the people rather than disarming the cartels sucking the lifeblood out of the people. Makes sense though. I’m sure the Mexican government is far more frightened of a populace that wishes to defend themselves than they are in curbing the cartels that provide so much revenue to corrupt government officials.
