#5  No, we've have civil unrest on both sides of our border. There was a dustup in Canada circa1840 with some riots, killings & hangings afterward. Some of my distant cousins of French Canadian descent suddenly vanished from the records there & men with the same name suddenly appeared in Minnesota. Pancho Villa shot up Columbus NM as part of the revolutionary chaos south of the border, and there were refugee camps for Mexicans in the US for a short period.

#4  We've never had civil unrest on our borders.

Any enterprising newspaper could translate & print what their papers say about us.

"Merkins not happy.

Would be a shame to go in 150 years later to clean up.

No sanctuary.

#3  Drugs must have been involved. Maybe mistaken identity on the part of the family, or actual involvement?

Probably, but its also possible that the cartels are sending the US and US law enforcement a message. They operate on terror and fear, just like any other terrorist org.

#1  It seems they were kidnapped, tortured and murdered. One guy who tried interfering got killed.
