Could be that a competing cartel outbid this cartel.
It’s a good start.
Damn man, where have these gunfights been all my life?
Huh? These were criminal creeps and all of Mexico (except their immediate families, who were living from their drug profits) is happy they are gone.
The big difference is that blacks and white liberals actually supported and praised the Ferguson/Baltimore thugs, who destroyed their entirely black neighborhood and mostly black businesses.
Mexicans do not like these drug gangs, but they’re scared, and at least the Federales are finally doing something. I heard, btw, that probably heavier weapons were used. Interesting.
That is the bomb!
Perhaps those cops worked for a rival cartel.
lol
Poor tortoise!

I’ve lived in ABQ. That’s reality!
