Incident happened due south of AZ/NM border. The border is “fluid” or porous in that area. Drug traffickers cross and re-cross the border all the time in that area. No fear. A tall wall would at least slow them down until the BP arrived on scene.

Sex cult, (Keith Raniere).

Connected to the actress Allison Mack from the Smallville TV show, and funded by one of the Bronfman (sp?) family (heir to the Seagram's liquor fortune).

One of the Bronfman daughters originally had her bail set at $100 million by a Federal court.

$100 million in bail by a federal court is more than just heartburn.

Darwin would have suggested that they vacate Mexico.

That’s a question I’ve always asked. And, how is it being laundered?

Reading other articles on this, the family has lived in this area of Mexico for a hundred years.

Traveling to the United States to get their children delivered on the American taxpayers dime and then gaining dual citizenship through their anchor babies before returning home to Mexico does not cause me to see this as something that the United States should be involved in.

In anyway.

Now.

If someone in the United States feels the need to take this on, they can drive their asses down to Mexico.

Otherwise let the Mexican government handle Mexico.

The Lebarons are a polygamist sect split off of the Mormon church. While many are still in the US, many also went to Mexico to avoid the law. There are some incidents of violence and inter-clan bloodshed in their past.

(Sorry for the link)

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mitt-romney-mormon_b_1823070

As recently as 2009, 72-year-old Meredith Romney, a relative of the Republican nominee, was kidnapped by Mexican gunmen in a strange vendetta involving drug cartels, land disputes and private militias.

Some Romney relatives, like Meredith, still reside today in a 1,600-member community where they “live in a level of luxury in stark contrast to the farmers and laborers around them,” according to an investigation by the crime reporter Jerry Langton. (Langton, Jerry. Gangland. Wiley, 2012, pp. 152-155)

Romney’s great-grandfather, Miles Park Romney, established a polygamous enclave in Mexico in 1885 to escape federal prosecutors in Utah who were denying polygamists the rights to vote, sit on juries, or run for office. According to Andrea Mitchell, “The Romneys that came back from Mexico to the United States... crossed the border illegally.” (January 22, 2012)

Though polygamy in Mexico was illegal as well, according to a 1902 Mormon history by William Alexander Linn, the Romney enclave at Colonia LeBaron, in the Sierra Madre foothills, survived and prospered down to present times. Mitt’s father, former Michigan governor George Romney, was born in Chihuahua in 1907.

Narcos, largely true, is a wonderful three season presentation available on Netflix, about the war on the Colombian drug cartels. One point that is made early on is that the Mexican cartels made a big mistake in kidnapping, torturing and murdering DEA agent Enrique Camarena. DEA wiped out the killers in retribution and to ensure that the other cartels learned it was very unwise to again attack US agents. For the most part, they left US personnel alone after this; perhaps another lesson is in order.

“To the citizens of the United States Of America, Mexico and to HUMAN BEINGS across the world....THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY THAT IS HAPPENING NOW..NEW DETAILS ARE ARRIVING BY THE SECOND......................... “Attention all of the World. We are a community of US citizens that live and operate between Mexico and the United States


The wording is odd?

Petitioned the US embassy? (normally one would say for help)

live and operate between US and Mexico? who says operate?

But if one grew up and learned English from tv and the movies this might be how one would say it?

There is much more to the story?

No, no troops in Mexico - ever! We need a couple of strike teams located near the border to begin selectively targeting cartel leadership and Los Zetas. Fly in in the middle of the night, fast rope into their compound, kill every swinging “Richard” in the compound and be home for breakfast. We already have the intel we need to take them out, but refuse to do so for issues of Mexican “national sovereignty”. It would benefit both the US and Mexican people - finally.

Whenever a preaching missionary enters an alien culture, there is inherent danger. He or she is in inherent conflict with the endemic culture that the missionary does not fully understand. Many missionaries die horrible deaths and go to their death not really understanding why they are killed.

Why involve troops?

Drones with hellfires can easily destroy known cartel headquarters. All there must be killed. Women, Children, dogs, cats.....all.

No mercy no quarter.

The lamentations of women will result in change
