I'd say it's a good thing there isn't any, as of now. Most likely it just hasn't happened yet, besides the cartels locked in heavy combat (CDG, Zetas, Juarez, Beltran Leyva) theres not really a use for it. Like those .50 cal. barret machine gun, it's just something to have when it's needed. CAF, and Sinaloa cells operating in Tijuana really don't have a need to use those weapons, I hope it stays that way.Jnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-32654034488405461392010-11-09T04:58:52.496-07:002010-11-09T04:58:52.496-07:00I saw the arrests u mentioned and the pics of the ...I saw the arrests u mentioned and the pics of the suspects holding up their weapons, including a rocket launcher...the whole thing got me thinking 'who the hell would use that thing anyway?' Its not exactly an inconspicuous firearm, and in a crowded city like TJ it wouldn't be hard to find the person who fired that weapon. For that matter, I have yet to hear of rocket attacks in Mex, although they find these rocket launchers every so often I don't think anyone has had the gall (or the permission)to use it on their rivals.Smurfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01405158440694459062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-55962496834990539612010-11-08T21:14:24.940-07:002010-11-08T21:14:24.940-07:00It could be something coming up, could be nothing,...It could be something coming up, could be nothing, just setting scores, and a further fall out from the Tigre/Aquiles conflict a few weeks ago, or something else. It's interesting how much more low key Tijuana organized crime has been, and usually is, rarely (aside from 2008) did you see the dismembered bodies and brutal beheading that have become commonplace in Guerrero, Tamaulpias, Durango, and Juarez. I read they arrested someone with a rocket launcher on Sunday though, in an Escalade.Jnoreply@blogger.com
