Chris, thank you for your article. However, the word "colony" (a Mexican Army unit was dispatched to Las Torres colony in Reynosa municipality) is misused. Neighborhood or subdivision would be a closer translation of a colonia.
ReplyDeleteThese CDG's cannot help but get themselves killed.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the Zetas will be taking over all of Mexico. It is funny how the CDS and GDG's huggers keep trying to write them off...
No where in the article did it mention CDG.

ReplyDeleteDon't pay attention to that old hag. He's just some wanna-be badass Mexican hater. This old racists pig actually condones armed response to kids throwing rocks at border patrol agents.
3:13 and i wonder who is financing that mexican intifadah, it cost the palestinians more land grabs by the israelis and more fences on palestinian's land, palestinians throw rocks, israel gets land, mexicans throw rocks, the border patrol loses credibility, and US private security firms get to oversee the border and control "FLOW" of "things" to the US, with impunity...

ReplyDelete"This old racists pig actually condones armed response to kids"
Imagine if Mexico was swamped by another people?How do we think Mexicans would react?I think we all know how they would react,they are the most intolerant of people,yet they call everyone racist?The race card rears its head so easily,pathetic.It gets used even when people are breaking laws.
Political correctness buries truth all the time.Look how easy he calls someone racist for having an opinion that he doesn't like?

ReplyDeletethere are many productive guys, influential too, that earn a living promoting the dirty businesses of some of the dirtiest businessmen on earth, namely US private contractors, like the private CORRECTIONAL CENTERS CORPORATION OF AMERICA, ACADEMI, Haliburton, blackwater, etc etc etc, they do not "produce" anything positive, all they do produce is crime, political crime, mass murder, emigration of centroamericans to the US, aboard the beast, the death trains that carry the prime materia for the
CCC of A to process and make 100.00 or 200.00 US dollars per day on eachnas a prisoner.
like the nazis, black eyes jackass is a productive memba' of society, puts on his name, changes it to anonymous at will, and horror of all horrors gets confused with me, the most anonymous of the anonymouses.
a productive member of society, does work with his hands, a mercenary, sowing mass murder around the world for rogue agents that have infiltrated and hijacked the government to suit their greedy needs, is NOT a productive member of society, joke ass jack, he is just another undercover criminal as his bosses.
