Me too.

He always seemed so convinced of what he said. He never wavered from his fabrications. Maybe he was delusional. It was hard to understand the man.


don't talk about ramsanus in the past tense. he will buy his way out of jail soon, and be back to his old ways, probably posting here to regale us with tales of his stay in the pokey and lecturing all of us on the immorality of the mexican law enforcement and judicial system according to el mano negro.

p.s. i know the mexican press and law enforcement love to publish pictures of perp walks, so someone scour the local rags and get us a pic of the perp walk! his arrest is not complete until we see the cops posing with arrested!

This just in from the US State Department


The U.S. Embassy alerts U.S. citizens traveling and residing in Mexico to the enhanced potential for violence related to today’s arrests of Transnational Criminal Organization (TCO) associates and family members residing in the United States.

This morning, U.S. federal law enforcement agents arrested associates and family members of a senior TCO member, and seized property and assets within the United States. These arrests could result in some form of retaliation and/or anti-American violence. Given the history and resources of this violent TCO, the U.S. Embassy urges U.S. citizens to maintain a low profile and a heightened sense of awareness.

Would you list your source(s) please?
My preliminary 3 online searches found nothing.
Wouldn't it be better to move this news to its own thread?

Welcome home Jesse. Hopefully we won't have to hear from Munoz for a while.

There's no link between the travel alert and the arrest of Munoz.

I don't have a link, but the NY Times has the story on the arrest in Oklahoma of the brother of the head of the ZETAS gang and it is worth looking up as the arrest has the potential of triggering new acts of violence by some of the most maniacal gangsters involved in the Mexican drug business.

The brother of the ZETAS' jefe drew attention to himself by paying cash for 3 million dollars' worth of champion horseflesh in one day. He and 15 others have been arrested in the USA for money laundering and various other crimes that tick-off the DEA.

His gangster brother is the lunatic responsible for the murder of 49 people whose bodies -- minus hands, feet and heads -- were recently found on a public highway in Mexico.

For every action there's a reaction and in this case I think our State Department is justified in issuing an advisory warning of possible retaliation against US citizens.

In my opinion, the ZETAS are more extreme and out-of-control than Hitler's SS thugs ever were. Mexico's toleration of these homicidal maniacs is a disgusting shame, but since the internal graft from the drug business is estimated at 6 billion dollars a year I have no doubt that the ZETAS will continue to operate unmolested.

That thread went on so long (still raises it's ugly head) that it's become a verb and an adjective to describe posts. As in:

"Oh no, this thread is turning into Turtle Soup."

or

"You're Turtle Souping my thread, man!"

It became the rare Nomadic Chubasco at times........just kept forming.


Took a few years off reading the forum. I made it through 10 pages of the Bahia Conception standoff last night.

WTF??? Scary as sh^t that something like that could happen and it takes multiple days to resolve. Not a very good thing for Mexico.



How about "Pure TS." or"You're TSing meæ
