Third Priest Killed In Dangerous Southern Mexico By MARK STEVENSON
A priest was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head, his diocese said Friday, marking the latest in series of abductions, attacks and highway robberies against Roman Catholic clerics in an area of southern Guerrero state dominated by drug cartels.
Rev. Gregorio Lopez Gorostieta is the third Catholic priest to have been killed in the region this year, and the first to die since the federal government launched a special, stepped-up security operation in the area following the disappearance of 43 teachers' college students three months ago.
The motive in Lopez Gorostieta's killing remains unclear; Bishop Maximino Martinez said a group had been seen lurking around the seminary where the priest taught on the outskirts of Ciudad Altamirano, Guerrero, on Sunday and Monday. Lopez Gorostieta was apparently kidnapped by the gang early Monday; his truck was found abandoned two days later.
"This is another priest added to those who have died for their love of Christ," Bishop Martinez said. "Enough already of so much pain, of so many murders. Enough already of so much crime. Enough extortions."

Not for long. They’re all headed our way which will make Mexico safer ... BOTOH ......
The state of Guerrero has never been safe. And I have been collecting antique Mexican ceramics for almost 50 years.
Sounds like some muslims may have moved into the neighborhood.
We have tens of millions of Mexican refugees in this country. Why is nothing done about Mexico?
Mexico—Revolution it needs! Bad families hung or shot, Criminals done away with—all their soldiers and capos Exicuted in public trials. A new Mexico under a new leader. Where is Zapata when we need him?
OK. Why is the U.N. not wanting to go in and restore some sort of order down their. They only seem to want to go into African countries that have oil or dimonds or some thing they can explot.
I’d like to know that too. As Mexicans infiltrate the U.S. they bring with them the problems of Mexico.
It’s so sad. I lived in Mexico for the better part of three years in the late 70’s-early 80’s. I felt perfectly safe. I drove everywhere, took public transportation, was often the only gringo around and never felt in any danger. And I certainly don’t look Mexican. It’s tragic what is happening to that country.
But don’t worry. Only the soon to be billionaire job creators and ‘good’ Mexicans are coming over illegally.
“We have tens of millions of Mexican refugees in this country. Why is nothing done about Mexico?”
You mean “invaders,” don’t you?
Mexico will soon be filled with our most feared enemy scum.
Satanic.
And they’re all coming to the US, thanks to the Idiot in the White House.
I figure refugee is another way of putting it. Things are not right and well in Mexico. The usual suspects (the liberal media, the UN, the lefty pressure groups, etc) don’t seem to care. All of the focus is getting them amnesty instead of sending them home, where refugees really belong.
