Yes they are illegal in mexico that is why the drug cartels are able to do what they do. If they tried it in the U.S. The public would shoot them just to defend themselves. I'm just worried about the violence coming over to our side of the border more than what it is already.

I posted the original article, when it first happened on another board. It was removed for some reason.

Stuff like that is too weird to not be true.

Just think, this is only something they got caught doing. Wonder what perverse things they didn't get caught for?

I guess the up side to that story(if there could be an up side) is, they weren't child molesters.

There are a lot of mexican police and military personnel who support the drug cartels. Id say there are top ranking mexican government officials and politicians who get a cut of all that drug and blood money too.

No surprise the drug cartels would have access to some nice weapons.

I read a while back that while a lot of police, military and government officials help the cartels simply because they want the money....that a lot of these officials also help the drug cartels in order to save the lives of themselves and their families.

Those drug cartels will send someone to your house and and line you and your family up.....if you dont join them they will return to kill you or your family.

Ive also read they are fond of killing a family member and then telling the person want help from that they will kill the rest of the family if they dont cooperate.

Those are offers you just cant refuse and very good reasons as to why we should be putting millions of dollars worth of tomohawks into mexico rather than some far away dustbowl like Libya.

Mexico is a theat to every single one of us......Libya is not.

Since I live right here by the border I get to hear some of the stories about the stuff they do alopt of it is sickening stuff I wouldn't wish on my enemies and their families. A while back we heard about a guy and his wife who went to mexico and the wife was dressed provocatively so a suburban just pulled up and told them she's coming with us you can pick her up tomorrow right here if you make a scene we will kill you... Its sick and sad. One person I heard of tried to outsmart them by taking an old beat up car over there to mex. The cartel stopped him at a road block and was talking to him and checked his insurance and saw a F250 and a suburban on it and told him bring us these cars or were gonna send someone to your house and kill you... A couple months back it was on the news that they kidnapped a carlot owner while he was in mex for the day and told his family that he would only be released by paying them so much money and giving them so many cars... And the previous poster is right about what they do to the families a good amount of people do it so that their fanilies are "safe"
