All this awful news coming from Mexico is just so sad.
I feel so sorry for this man's family.

I was working in our greenhouses this morning here in Oregon with two of our employees who are from Apatzingan, Michoacan.
They told me they are afraid to ever go back to live in Mexico again. One of their cousins who owns large tracts of avocado orchards was kidnapped last year and has not been seen or heard from since. :no:

Makes me feel fortunate to enjoy Loreto as much as I do, considering what is happening in the rest of the country.

Without being insensitive, it appears narco related. 9 rounds is a message! Maybe he would not look the other way??

You'd think they could have covered him with something. They already have the area taped off, a couple of guys investigating, onlookers......how long would it take to throw something over the poor guy?.....dt

I'm fairly sure that the Green Angel part of this had nothing to do with the killing. It had to be related to something in his personal life, as noted by some others here.

This is a crying damn shame! 55 with 30 years service and ready to retire.

Wish we knew what was behind this.

The scenes of graphic violence and crime dominate the Mexican media. I have been amazed at the things they show on the news, compared to the U.S. media. I am just sorry they have them to show!:no: Most Americans do not see the gruesome results of violent crime in the U.S. In Mexico it is plastered all over tv, newspapers and magazines. Most NOB people live in fantasy land regarding the true impact of what we hear on the morning news.

We were in Ensenada on Wednesday and the downtown area is really hurting and things like this only make it worse. Sad and no matter what connections if any the man did not deserve such total termination by what ever lowlife that did this. Too bad and I feel for his family. When is enough going to be enough??? Travel Safe Nomads and Take Care At All Times. Military was really on guard Wednesday afternoon just as you exited the toll road going back towards San Diego this explains why. bajafun777

The weekly Zeta reports the cartels are growing poppies in the Ensenada area. Opium Hecho en Mexico. If this guy was on that beat for 30 years- he def knew too much and noticed any changes like that. I'm sure they would have had a retirement job for him given his connections- so maybe he refused an offer he shouldn't have or something.

Poppies in Ensenada. Mota in U.S. National Parks areas. Meth cooking all over North America. 500,000 pill E busts. Cartels own the Baja to Canada coast. I figure I have 25-35 years left above the ground. Time to go hide!

The only place we can hide is in the past- there is no place on earth to hide from the present. Enjoy all your "Leave it to Beaver" Americana memories of how things were- because sadly they will never be coming back.
