They were part of a Mormon community that has been there since the early 20th century and most have duel citizenship. It’s a borderland community and plenty of intermarriage happens all along the border.

This wasn’t some conspiracy to bring in Mexicans.

It might be time we took ownership of at least parts of Mexico that border the US, and bring some level of law and order there.

Yes. Let’s make this about politics even though it is a cartel issue......and we all know the Trump train rhetoric is about to start.

Yeah, I think Mitt Romney's family was involved in setting up Mormon communities in Mexico in the late 19th century.

Mexican cartels have learned from the radical Islamic terrorist that in general Americans do not have the stomach for violence against themselves. Politicians and the general public cower when things like this happen and resolve to bargaining for peace or just pretending we are all friends and maybe the bad stuff will stop. In realities the only thing these animals respect and understand is equal or greater violence. In these cases it makes you/us weaker to take the high road. What should happen is the US should drop 10 - 15 Daisy Cutters on this whole town and kill everything that walks or crawls. And every time an American is killed in Mexico the town or village where they were killed should be leveled, and/or known cartel strongholds. Yea, we can't go bombing another country and all. Well, the Mexican government has proven over the last decade to be either A) Inept in controlling this violence that is spreading across out boarders AND B) Complicit in allowing it to continue and flourish. And besides, I bet if you look hard enough you'll find oil in Mexico and that's been reason enough for the US to bomb the shite out of places in the past.

This is a group of fundamentalist Mormons that fled the U.S. years ago mainly because of Polygamy laws.


If only they had been a part of the alphabet they'd be alive today.

If people can’t see that the cartels are a huge threat, then I don’t know what to say. These guys are better trained and better equipped than the goat frickers we’ve been fighting in the middle east. Hell, a lot of them are former Mexican special forces. They are a very dangerous group.

If they have dual citizenship why would they live in Mexico? What work were they doing? Were they on large cattle farms or something? Honestly asking? Did Mexico turn a blind eye to polygamy?

I know there’s a fair amount of ex-pats in the nicer parts of Mexico, but why would you choose to live in this area over Utah?

That Vice story was on the Lebaron clan, the group that was ambushed and killed.

And to add insult to injury, no one will be brought to justice because the police forces there are either working for those cartels or paid off by them. Sad situation.




The guy who made the mistake will likely be killed because putting the cartels in the news is bad for business. Nobody cares about them killing each other but killing an innocent white American family with children brings a lot of heat down. Just the real truth of the world we live in

Charles and his kind are more concerned about the Kurds on the Syrian-Turkish border than the lives of their fellow countrymen at our southern border.

It’s not like they don’t warn you about violence and cartels down there. What kind of idiots put their wife and kids in danger like that on purpose. It’s not like it was a resort area.

There is also a large amount of Mennonites in Mexico. Primarily in the state of Chihuahua. They seem to live peacefully on there farms. I live in a border county in Southwest Texas and see them in town ever so often.
