Even in podunkville the cartels have more of a presence than you would know. Told to me by a friend who works for the US Marshall’s.

That's on par with most boomer fudd's understanding of terminal ballistics. All he needed to add was "foot pounds of energy" lol

The cartel is on a mission to establish themselves in the US as they are in Mexico and the demotards are helping them because there's money for them in it.

So far the Cartel is doing very well.

The parents were obviously almost guaranteed to be involved in the drug trade to some degree or another. Regardless of that what a tragedy. I can’t imagine losing a child and compounding that grief with the knowledge that my own actions had played some role in it. It’s something those parents will never be able to get over or move past.

From the article:

"It's just something that we can't allow to happen anywhere to anyone, much less a 4-year-old child that had nothing to do with anything," he said."

I'd like to know exactly how he is going to prevent it, given the hordes of illegals.

Then later he comments about the great pleasure he will get for bringing the killers in; would be far better for everyone if they were killed resisting arrest.

I saw nothing about a possible motive.

My neighborhood makes that particular enclave where this murder took place look like Beverly Hills…

If you Google Walk that street, there’s a long wooden fence on one side (the end of which is just visible in this photo). No graffiti on it or tagging at all, no sign of recent painted-over patches either.

TheLastLemming76, I think you are right about the parents being involved in some nasty stuff that put their innocent children in harm's way, but I wouldn't let them off so easily. They were criminally negligent. Any truly loving parent would never do what they were doing.

They are all over. Probably 75% of these little Mexican restaurants that are all over the place are laundering money for the cartels. Lots of Mexicans own trucking companies and the like hauling loads for them.

They are a lot less brazen here than there and their operations are more low key. But I wonder how long that will last if/when law and order continues to slip in this country.

Several years ago I read about 'tire shops' around southern California being investigated as cartel fronts. Some were staked out and did nearly zero business but were depositing thousands of dollars per week. Never heard of anybody going to jail over it.

Fuqking idiots. Yahoo started that schit to demonize the .223 as well, they had my Uncle convinced of that as well I gave him a few stats on rifle rounds to convince him the .223 was not the most powerful rifle ever made.[/quote


Yahoo didn’t start it.


I’ve heard Vietnam vets say that.


My understanding is the original ammo out of the first guns really would be tumbling after 100 or so yards.

10 years or so ago a Mexican tribe showed up here and opened probably 10 restaurants. Two in our little community that had never had one, and hasn’t since those closed 5 years ago. All the towns within 30 miles that could support one got one. I would recognize people working the different ones.

One of them beat up his wife and they all closed.

I always wondered where the money came from(and went) and why in the heck here.


No different than the Chinese place that suddenly opened in the early 90s. All Chinese staff, one who almost spoke passable English.
Where did they come up with the scratch to open a restaurant in a new plaza? And why here, where there are no Chinese and no such restaurants? And few folks ate that kind of food?

Every 3-5 years they re-Chink. Same deal, all Chinese, one who can kinda communicate with the locals. There is only one explanation I can think of.

I just read the story . Nothing in it even remotely suggests the parents were dirty .

I was involved in a case where a wife had to return $500k cash she took out of a safe in a Mexican restaurant. The source of the cash and the money for her G Wagon and her husband’s similar ride were never quite pinned down. Small town Mexican restaurant owners do well it seems.

There are families in the RGV that have made their living in the human smuggling trade.....and we're talking grandma and grampa!

Back in the 70's when the Viet Namese moved into the Corpus Christ/Rockport area, they bought small shrimp boats.
They paid no attention to limits or seasons.
If they got caught too often, they moved further offshire into international waters.
Back at home, a 2 or 3 bedroom home may have 20 people living there. Mama San cooked chicken and rice everyday to feed the hoard. Chicken and rice! Cheapest stuff on earth!
The groups pooled their money until they could afford a steel hulled shrimp boat and really "super shrimped", damaging the shrimping industry. TPW finally got them under control, but there's still a lot of them.

I've seen Mexicans do the same thing.
One will rent a rundown, ramshackle hoke in the wall. Twenty live there. They eat a steady diet of chicken and bean tacos that mamacita makes.
They earn $200.00 week mowing yards or digging ditches.
Friday afternoon or Saturday morning at the Western Union office, sending $150 of that to Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, etc, etc, etc....

Vietnamese nearly wiped out Seagulls back in the 70's.
They'd throw some by-catch overboard and two of them would throw big cast-nets and catch numerous & free '''Cornish Gulls'''.

Thematically correct maybe, significant differences in the details.
