We should encourage Ben Crump to go to Mexico to fight this obviously racist attack.

Is it raycist or not?

Cause that could make it a hate crime.

Or...be cartel related. They are not much into affirmation action hiring.

going to Mexico “for a procedure”

I wonder how much tax (welfare) money goes to nail salons and eyelashes and butt injections...

It sure seems like a lot of Cadillac Escalades in the ghettos too. Spinning rims and all.

The official said cartel gunmen had targeted the group in a case of mistaken identity.

The van also had North Carolina plates. I haven't driven into Mexico, but assume identifying oneself as American is a big red flag.

This story doesn’t add up to me - I still think it was drug-trafficking gone wrong.

Don’t try that “refugee” crap to sneak into Mexico. They’ll shoot your ass.

“...the group had traveled to Mexico for a “medical procedure.”

On ABC News last night they reported that the woman’s mother said her daughter went to Mexico for cosmetic surgery. My bet is that she went to get her butt made bigger.

I drove through Matamoros in the early 1990s, and it was a place you just knew better than stopping in. You kept your foot on the gas until you hit the border patrol.

There are many warnings for Americans to not travel to Mexico. But they still do. And it is past time for Mexico to respect Americans. I have said before that we should put troops on the border, maybe occupy the first 10-100 miles of Mexico to rid it of the cartels and create a safe zone where we can keep the violence away from our border and deport all Mexicans in the US to so they can have a safe space in Mexico.

Those damn Mexicans aren’t very friendly. Try sneaking into Mexico and see if you can get THEIR “Border Patrol” (the cartels) to change your kid’s shi**y diaper.

Going to Mexico for medical treatment or prescriptions is a long-time tradition. I figured from the initial reports that it was a bunch of senior citizens going. Guess not.

The border is owned by Mexico.

Anyone entering Mexico is a target for the cartels and kidnappers and others.

Anyone going the other way to the U.S. has to pay the cartels for safe passage and transportation, while it’s totally allowed by the Biden administration, no questions asked and no targets placed on them, and in fact, they’re welcomed and accommodated and paid to stay in the U.S. and become future citizens and democrat voters.

My guess it is one of two things, drugs or drugs.

These dufuses went to Mexico to save $$$ on her tummy tuck. They ended up loosing money and lives

Moral is next time go see an illegal alien doctor in the US for a bargain rate Botox, tummmy tuck or butt injections. That’s the way to go.

In UK they like to fly into Turkey for plastic surgery and dental work bargains. These work out OK half the time. Half the time a UK doctor has to fix the mess you got in Turkey
