Reporting from Monterrey, Mexico -- In the seconds before the gunmen burst into the tiny Lozano Garza jewelry store in this city's downtown, three shoppers browsed the display cases.

Yep, even if the guard had been armed, it may not have mattered much. They were shooting before they had even cleared the door. No one even saw it coming. I mean, it looked like all of them got mowed down within 3 or 4 seconds. I would think you would have to have multiple guards on a war footing to defend against something like that.

Nice, shooting women in the back.

I’m guessing it’s illegal for law abiding citizens to own guns?

The woman in the back took a shot to the head...probably died instantly... hell is a place too nice for these murderous cretins.

"That’s a depressing site to visit. Holy cow. Just the tip of the iceberg too."


Agreed, but better to be informed and thus able to be prepared, than to believe it can't happen to you, or yours.


Check out the gang activity pages in your state. There are over 12,000 gang members in Colorado, that they admit to.

Know Gangs


Stay safe.

First reaction from a lib,
"all the more reasons to ban weapons.
Oh they are already banned in Mexico?
Those evil capitals making money at the costs of the innocent."

Sounds like a sarcastic conservative to me.

I hear people exclaim that if it was all legal we wouldn’t have this going on. Yeah right.

Agreed. I used to think that way, as it seemed logical.

However, Cell phones, sneakers, iPods, etc are all legal and freely available, but people (especially in UK) get shot or stabbed to death on the streets regularly by somebody that doesn't want to pay for one.

How many sanctuary cities are begging for a bailout? Illegal thugs and killers come and go from these places. The taxpayers cannot handle the load for education and health care. It is time to deny these 80 cities any federal funds as long as they break the law and put every American at risk.

Speaking about the NatGeo deal, the replay is on right now—the documentary about heroin.

Why was the guard ‘unarmed’? Crazy... if he had a gun it’s possible that he could have shot the 2nd creep into the store. Who knows what might have happened after that...

One of the stories on that page is ‘Drunk driver slams into cop car’.

I saw that happen in the late Eighties in I-680 just south of San Ramon. My ex and I were coming home from her parent’s house one night, and saw a burning CHP unit on the side of the road. Another CHP unit was there- I think the officer was trying to keep the injured one going until the EMTs got there. I laid out a flare pattern and lent some blankets at the officer’s request. The assisting officer and I talked it over and agreed that the fire wasn’t going to get any worse, and was providing heat and light, so I didn’t get my extinguisher out.

My ex called the hospital and found that the injured officer was going to be OK, never heard anything else about it. I still wonder how it played out in the end. The cop who was down didn’t look like he was doing so well when we got there.

“Lying dead that afternoon of March 14, 2007, were an off-duty police commander and his wife,”

Hit job. The others were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I used to work for a company that sent us to Monterrey occasionally to upgrade our test systems. It’s actually a nice town. Thankfully I don’t work for them any more. I would probably refuse to go there again after seeing this.

The poor girl that was moving at the end. I kept thinking if only she played dead maybe he wouldn’t have shot her one last time.

The article said those shot included a police commander and his wife. I'm thinking it wasn't a robbery of the jewelry store, it was a hit on the commander and wife.

It was good of you to stop & assist.

Anymore it gets pretty hazardous just putting on your 4 ways & slowing down near accident scenes.
