"War on America?" :?:

You are aware that this incident happened in Tamaulipas, right?

Think the war has been going on for a long time. Bad hombres get money and guns from the US, they send dope to the US to feed the addiction some have.

It looks like ranchers who are US citizens (84 miles from the border) are being targeted. Looks like more war.

From TX Ag Commissioner Sid Miller:

- Avoid dirt roads/remote areas

- Refrain from touching unfamiliar objects

- Limit travel to daylight hours

- Stay on main roads

- Avoid cartel-controlled regions

- Stay aware of their surroundings

- Report any suspicious activity to law enforcement




US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.

What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.

Have you information indicating that guy was actually targeted? Or the reasons, if that was the case?

All I've seen is what was presented in that article in my previous link, which was pretty slim pickings. For all we know, he might have just been in the wrong place at the wrong time, and ended up being collateral damage.
