Two Americans kidnapped at gunpoint at the US-Mexico border by 'Gulf Cartel' have been found dead while two others have been located alive but one wounded.

The Governor of Tamaulipas, Américo Villarreal Anaya, confirmed the condition of the four Americans over a phone call during President Andrés Manuel López Obrador's press conference on Tuesday.

The Tamaulipas State Attorney General's Office said: 'The four American citizens deprived of their liberty last Friday were found.

The four Americans were kidnapped in Mexico after traveling over the border so that one could get a cut-price tummy tuck.

It believed they were kidnapped by members of the Gulf Cartel, a notoriously violent gang run by a feared leader known as La Kena.

This.

Mexico was shitty 30 years ago BEFORE their economy bottomed out.

We aren’t far from Robocop where rebels and the government were fighting for control of Acapulco and the rebels ended up destroying the airport.

This is the kind of thing that could get war declared on the cartels for.

Should be. Won’t.


The Mexican national and state governments are ineffective at best and we aren’t going to go full Blackjack Pershing and invade Mexico to take on the cartels.

These idiots will probably get more outrage from the left than all the farmers, ranchers, etc, who get attacked by the Cartel on the US side of the border.

Is that the cartel run by a former member of the Mexican Special Forces who we trained?

A quick look says that these aren’t Los Zetas but that they are are supposed to be allied with them.

No...this is the type of thing that Democrats will use to push more Universal health care saying that they would be alive if the procedure was free here in the US (even though it is plastic surgery which would never be free)

The American Mafia used to have a rule that you didn't go after cops or government officials ( unless they were dirty) because they didn't want the full power of our government coming after them. It's time we teach Mexican cartels why that was a smart rule.

This was an old SNL skit about Hillarycare doing a town hall in Belair with Michael Jackson, Tori Spelling, etc, asking about cosmetic surgery being covered and taxes based on the number of rooms in your house.

Yeah, that's a problem. Those special forces guys were pretty well trained even in Mexico. We trained them.

Supposedly the reason for the attack was a truce between various cartels ending.

Los Zetas could frick up the Gulf Cartel. A pity both can’t lose but people won’t cry over the Gulf Cartel getting Colombian neckties.
