Juarez-- People in Juarez are recovering from a car bomb that killed four Thursday night. The victims include two federal agents, an ambulance worker and a doctor who was in the area when the bomb went off. Tonight, we have learned that it was a car bomb that was detonated with the same kind of sophistication that is used by terrorist groups like Hezbollah.
A number of people were injured during the attack. Today we know that seven federal police agents were severely injured. A news photographer from channel 5 in Juarez remains in critical condition. One woman who owns a business nearby talked to us about her fears.
"As it is, we are not selling much. Can you imagine right now people are scared. We used to have many American customers. Right now that has drastically decreased," says the business owner.
According to police, it appears a Ford Focus was driven into a police convoy crashing into two federal police units. Information from officials indicates that there were hand grenades attached to the gas tank of the car in order to cause the explosion. Juarez mayor Jose Reyes Ferriz said today that the general public shouldn't be worried because recent attacks have been focused on police. "Luckily it has been limited to either the police or the members of those two groups of organized crime. We don't have any information that leads us to believe any attacks are going to be made on the population itself," states Ferriz.
Law Enforcement has arrested the man they say masterminded the attack. The man is identified as Armando Acosta Guerrero. Authorities say he is a high ranking member of "La Linea", the enforcement arm of the Juarez cartel.
Our fearless Homeland Security director isn’t concerned about any of this spilling over the border so all is well. /s

If only drugs were legal.../s
If you have ever watched Once upon a Time In America,
the two main bootlegging characters are sitting on a beach in Florida, one turns to the other after reading a newspaper that states Prohibition is Over, “we are out of business” is his comment.
Repealing prohibition was to result in mass alcoholism did not turn out that way.
Tax the product, control its sale, initiate programs to educate the population of harms as a result of using the product as they do with tobacco.
Not Sarcasm
Just one of the fronts in an approaching war on America.
But did the Mafia go away?
Time to invade and occupy.
They have moved on to more profitable less obvious sources of financial gains, the current unions and some banks as an example, with the assistance of politicians into legalized gambling and now probably into the health care industry.
This however is our Mafia in our soil, will the Mexican Cartels and other suppliers of drugs and promoters of all the killings and gang activity go away, I believe so.
But didn’t Mexico legalize drugs already ?
I believe they did, however the Cartels are interested in selling to the customers in the USA.
