A chilling message from the cartels: Billboards with hanging mannequins warning cops to choose 'silver over lead' appear in Texas

• Two billboards along highways in El Paso, Texas were vandalized and had mannequins hanging off of them
• One reads 'silver or lead' in Spanish which is taken to mean that police and business owners can either take drug cartels' bribes or die
• Worries spreading that cartels that have ruled Mexican border towns with violence may be headed north

Two frightening incidents of vandalism in El Paso near the Mexican border in Texas have been interpreted as warnings from drug cartels. In both instances, a mannequin wearing a suit and tie was tied to a billboard with a noose and messages were scrawled over the placards. Local station KHOU reports that one of the signs reads 'Plata o Plombo' which translates to 'silver or lead', a threat used commonly against police officers effectively warning that if they do not accept the cartel's bribes then they will be shot.

Yup. The US attorney general armed these narco-terrorists.
And one Bush said they further family values while the most recent one said their problem is they just love too big.

I prefer Shoot, Shovel and Shut Up.

How about just whacking some of the drug dealers and hanging them from billboards with graffiti saying "¡MEXICO O MUERTE!"

PING!

I’m surprised no one has burnt down this billboard...

...or at least splattered it with paint balls.

[luvie]

[luvie]

“The cartels are running wild all over this country.”

They pretty much control the city of Chicago and Cook County.

[matt04]

Well, the El Paso media coverd it, so that counts, right?

[BuckeyeTexan]

You took the words right outta my mouth.

Road Trip!

I think they’ll be fine. I worry about the Americans. The fact we haven to this point should say something.

[luvie]

I’m READY!!!!

Paint balls are easy to find! LOL!

Mexicans thinking of starting a race war when they are an easily identifiable minority are wildly optimistic if they think Mexicans in America will be treated as were teh Japanese during WW II.

Those considering such conflicts are violating Rule #1 of Race Wars For Dummies. For such Messican dummies, that rule suggests being in the minority in a race war is a baaad idea.

But, one can ask whether those signs were addressing a race war or a drug war. The answer, my friend, is not blowing in the wind. It is found in the racist rants of every pro-Mexican group.

Yup, it is race.

IMHO, this can’t be solved peacefully any longer. They won’t allow it, because culture is determinative and they are what they are.

Can’t, the post office and T.S.A. bought it all up.

WHAT??

A 2 billion dollar drug trade, which is probably triple that...but don’t ask if that money finds it’s way into politics. Name the most obscure industry and they are exercising political influence. But, not drugs. No! Don’t even ask the question.

Carry on.
