As drug-related violence continues to worsen across the border in Mexico, journalists are being increasingly targeted.
Mexico’s widening war with drugs has claimed more than 3,000 lives this year alone. On Sunday, assailants opened fire on the US consulate in the northern Mexican city of Monterrey, reports the Associated Press. Nobody was injured in that attack, but on Saturday gunmen killed six young men at a family party in the gang-plagued Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez, reports AP.
Saturday night’s mass shooting was the second in the border state of Chihuahua in less than a week. Just before midnight Thursday, gunmen opened fire in a bar in the city of Chihuahua, killing 11 people.
The most recent violence underscores yet another frightening dimension in the violence: the targeting of journalists, the San Antonio Express reports.

A burrito can be a dangerous weapon in the hands of an angry peasant. Assault with a deadly tortilla can be even more serious.

Decriminalize and legalize drugs is the only solution.
The police state prison system will melt away.
Holland is the perfect example. Once decriminalized/legalized crime dropped by over 66%. There was no need for police or prisons, but there was a need for professionals educated on how to treat the disease of drug addiction by stopping the spread of AIDS and no longer giving reason for drug addicts to rob, and kill to support their addiction/disease.
Imagine no more drive by killings of innocent children caught in the crossfire.
Enough is enough, legalize and then audit the finances of every CIA intelligence operative to disgorge them of their dirty money.

This sounds like a false flag terror attack to me, because my family comes from were the cartel is based at Culiacan, Sinaloa , and I will just say this “most of the cartel wouldn’t just attack people for any reason,” there has to be some greater reason I believe. I am pretty sure the Mexican government is trying to take control of the drug trade so they can then trade directly with the Cocaine Importing Agency (C.I.A.) we know this all corrupt governments like to hold all the power. The Mexican government is using this to further increase their police state.

Mexico can go f--- itself.

Mexican Terrorists are 1000x more dangerous to Americans than Mddle Eastern Terrorists but since they are not a threat to Israel we can disregard them totally.

Does anyone here realize that more than 6,000 Americans are killed every year through violence committed by Mexicans who are connected to the criminal element. That is TWO 9-11’s PER YEAR.
But as the poster said below…… the war on terror has nothing to do with OUR security.

The 3 strike law does not apply to people without proper documents only to american citizens
http://www.fulldisclosure.net you have to listen to the Los Angeles Retired Sheriff Sergeant Richard Valdemar
a courageous man who set an example of a good citizen who cares.
America has already been invaded. We have to hold our government here accountable for letting things get out of control.
