well after forwarding this to krgv 5 news i was told that this can not be confirmed.
ReplyDeletethat they"krgv" have a policy of not using anything off the internet. i finished up the conversation asking them "krgv" to please try and confirm this story and run it.
I personally have great faith in what i have read here at borderlandbeat. I bet if this was the 1930's and 40's and people had cell phones with twitter, photo and video capabilities in Germany that all reports of concentration camps and atrocities committed would be discredited as hearsay.
What is a 'commando'?
ReplyDeleteWhere are all the cell phone and twitter reports about this event? What is the source for the information? How many sources were there? Help me to confirm what is alleged.
ReplyDeleteI live there, it did happen, it's just the local media does not reported so the people don't hear about it!!!
ReplyDeleteBorderland Beat posted the source with a link to the story. Proceso, a national newspaper, it was also on Mileno another national newspaper.
You are not another person who does not want the news to get out and living with your head in the sand are you?
If you are really concern abour confirming the incident, get off your ass do a little research on the internet, you you will find plenty of info about it.

One witness cant say if it was an airplane or a helicopter, but he is sure that it was armed and shooting
ReplyDeleteWTF ?
valleycentral did cover this, but valleycentral is still crap.
ReplyDeleteThe term "commando" as used in the context of drug violence within Mexico refers to "a group or squad of heavily armed individuals"
