ReplyDeleteFirst rule being an outlaw is know your enemy and kill on sight....more than half of these sicarios wanna go out guns blazin,and police and military are enemy number.
ReplyDeleteI want to visit monterrey so bad. its been almost 5 yrs but I don't want to get friends or family in any problems. not to mention the fact that if the wrong ppl see my tall white ass I might get kidnapped and get my head cutoff.
ReplyDeleteThe name of one of the street is screams of pain gritos de Dolores
ReplyDeleteI really find myself wondering if these people actually in all honesty shoot at the police First..! Or the police pull them over,find weapons and drugs and then just kill them in order to make sure the'll never have to fuck with them in the future. Thats how it is in all of Latin American second rate justice systems.
ReplyDelete@9:59AM It refers to the cry for independence which was given in Dolores Hidalgo Gto. Try to learn something before you reveal your ignorance.
ReplyDelete"not to mention the fact that if the wrong ppl see my tall white ass I might get kidnapped and get my head cutoff"
ReplyDeleteAwwww,you cant go on holiday because of these naughty gunmen,shucks.Aint that a bitch.
Trying to make yourself sound tuff throu an anonymous stuff lol shucks your funny
DeleteIm a tall white guy, dont speak barely any english and i stayed this march and april in monterrey with friends with no problems, rode the buses by myself no issues, just dont go down there flashing money around like a dumbass and most people dont even look twice at you, dont go out at night by yourself and dont do stupid shit, pay attention and youll be fine, stop making excuses youve got a better chance getting killed driving to work then even being robed or killed being a white guy in mexico
ReplyDeleteI have to laugh at September 16, 2012 6:19 PM's comment. If I had a dollar for every white guy who's gone down to Mexico thinking exactly like you and has disappeared, I'd have a lot of money. There are literally dozens of families in Texas making hopeless appeals in search of loved ones who went to Mexico. You were lucky, dude. Do it a few more times and we'll be seeing your family appealing for information relating to your disappearance.
ReplyDeleteOh the carnage and bloodshed!
ReplyDelete"Im a tall white guy",,,,,with jet black hair who go's darker than a fuckin Mexican.And what ?
ReplyDeleteGet off it.

ReplyDeleteThe last incident by the Revolucion Bridge and Avenida Revolucion, that's like a stone-throw away from Tec de Monterrey, yes?
ReplyDeleteAlso, no report on the 12 people killed in a mechanics shop the same weekend?
