ReplyDeleteFiring shots / Killing humanitarian aid workers due to unwanted police presence is despicable.
Mexico has truly lost all civil obedience. Moreover, self respect.
Wow attacked Red Cross members. This particular criminal group needs to, be shot on the spot. I am sure families of the criminals, will cry foul when they are killed by police.

ReplyDeleteExactly blame it on the cartels this was a government hit.
DeleteQuestion to the people that read this and live in Mexico....After reading this and knowing that a criminal group did this....what would you think if a military helicopter unloaded on the 5 vehicles and killed all 20 of the criminal group? Would you say that is justice or that the government staged the attack???
