Can we label the cartel’s terrorists and bomb the shit out of them already? They truly effect everyday American’s lives. But no, let’s send 120 billion to an outlaw government halfway across the globe. 🙄
This right here, same things applies to muslims as well. Too many people want to think its poor women and children that are captive in these disfunctional civilizations, yet reality is that the women and children are fully onboard.
We spent 20 years, tens of thousands of soldiers' lives, and untold treasure in Afghanistan fighting a bunch of cave-dwelling militiamen who had nothing to do with 9/11 and were incapable of carrying out terror attacks within the US, but we won't touch the cartels literally on our border or spend one cent on border security.
The CIA got into the narcotics trafficking racket so that they could self-fund their operations. Not having to rely on Congress and "official" payroll allowed them to completely avoid oversight.
Mexico is rich in oil, they just lack the competence to manage it. Talk about a country WORTH nation building! They sit on our border, have a shit ton of oil and are the launching pad for all the garbage pouring into our country. We don’t need a wall we need to crush their power centers and establish a puppet regime and start harvesting that oil!
The riff raff being exported from Central America is what's pouring over our borders now. Mexico has exported their underclass to us already, now it's time for Honduras and El Salvador to gather up all their criminals and chronic poor underclass and bus them to the border.
That's what's going on you know? These shithole governments have a population they want to get rid of so they round them up from prisons and street shanties and put them on one way busses to the American border.
Oo you’re talking about the caravans,
Those are the losers wanting freebies.
The ones sneaking in, actually are trying to work for a living.
And most illegals pay taxes as well, using a ITiN provided by the Feds.
But some don’t, around 20% get under the table money.
The rest use fake papers,
But still pay taxes
They IrS always gets their share
In 1987, same deal, spring break, they cross the border and get kidnapped by a SATANIC CULT. All get ripped apart in brutal deaths!!!! Not sure how that isn’t still remembered?
On 14 March 1989, University of Texas at Austin student Mark James Kilroy was kidnapped in Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico while vacationing during spring break. He was taken by his abductors to a ranch where he was tortured and sodomized for hours before being murdered in a human sacrifice ritual. Kilroy was killed with a machete blow and then had his brain removed and boiled in a pot. His killers then inserted a wire through his spinal column, amputated his legs at the knees, and buried him at the ranch along with 14 other people who had been killed there before him. Adolfo Constanzo, the leader of the cult, told his followers that human sacrifice granted them immunity from law enforcement for their drug smuggling operations.
Yes. Was talking to my dad about the insanely brutal Aztecs and Mayas, and how there's likely some connecting thread to the modern violence of the Cartels and MS13. These guys would make ISIS blush. Interesting to see someone else think the same way.
There were a lot of scary events down in Matamoros/Brownsville in the late 80s, early 90s. This one was very spectacular because it involved a spring breaker. There was also the story of the mom from Brownsville who paid a “Curandera” in Matamoros with a personal check to “take care of” her daughter’s 16 year old ex boyfriend and the Curandera used that money to hire a hit man who hid in the bushes and shot him in the head when he was going to his car to drive to school one morning.
Constanzo had taken the precaution of ordaining El Duby and transferring to him the power to make human sacrifices; now he commanded El Duby to perform the ultimate ritual — Constanzo wanted to die with his lover and bodyguard, Martin Quintana Rodriquez
If it didn't happen while one was alive it never happened. Apparently no one learns from history and each generation needs an example of someone that found out the hard way.
I remember the Matamoros killings like they were yesterday, only because my family vacationed in South Padre back in '86 and going to Mexico is something we begged our parents to do. (My brother and I wanted switchblades) The place was an absolute shithole except for the steakhouse we ate at. (Garcia's if I recall correctly) Fast forward to a year later and I was not at all surprised that happened based on the vibe I experienced while there.
Garcias was literally the first place once you got over the bridge. I rarely went to the Mercado, that was crap anyway.
I was never dissuaded from going to Matamoros. Never had any problems there and I used to go across every weekend and I’m white as snow. Blanca White’s and Los Sombreros were awesome (until Blancas burned down, but that was past my time anyway).
The Kilroy story was just something to remember, that you needed to watch your back, Mexico isnt Candyland ffs.
There used to be a pretty good restaurant in Matamoros called Los Portales. They had epic cabrito. It was across the "old bridge", not the "new bridge" that landed at Garcia's front door. It was always stunning to get your bill there!
The gringo bars just across the new bridge would sometimes charge you a lot for drinks though. Although for a while Sombreros used to have "drink or drown" Thursdays where you pay something crazy like $20 and get a wristband, and for that you could get as many beers or mixed drinks as you wanted. Of course the mixed drinks were watered way down and the only beer you could get was Dos Equis (blech). As I recall Sombreros was one of the rowdier places that you landed in when Blancas tables were all full.
Spring Breakers were awful in Matamoros. Local high schoolers were pretty cool, just go across get drunk and stumble back across the border. The spring breakers would scream, piss and puke in the street, wander into neighborhoods, go out in search of drugs (bad fuckin idea!).. I saw it first hand.
South Padre PD is very very kind to Spring Breakers, they just accepted the insanity because it’s how the town makes its nut every year, but some people in Matamoros were not so understanding. The federales LOVE locking up gringos during spring break!
I never understood the mindset of individuals that would get blackout drunk in Mexico with the knowledge of what a Mexican jail cell is like. Hell, trying to cross the road was enough to convince me I should never drive there.
That was the beauty of Matamoros. Brownsville butts right up against the river, lots of places to park, stroll across the bridge (no hassles with customs either way) then the gringo bars were all right there when you got off the bridge!
As long as you didn’t cause too much trouble you could drink yourself stupid and wake up in your bed the next morning with nothing more than a nasty hangover.
I’m sure that is all changed now. This was pre nafta days. A better, more civilized time when the Valley was actually kinda nice and there was lots of money down there.
Cartel would kidnap women, usually white and Asian, who travel through Mexico. They would take the men only if they look like they came from money.
If no one could pay a ransom for the women, they were put to work as sex slaves.
The men? Not so lucky. If no ransom is paid, they would carve them open and lay them in a field for the vultures to eat. Once they've picked the bones clean, the cartel would grab the bones and grind them up into a fine powder and then toss it somewhere.
Its annoying to me that there are STILL people out there who think Mexico is safe to visit, and its usually these white or Asian women who want to travel because of their social media needs likes.
You wont be safe unless you're with a group at all times and you're staying at a hotel in a tourist resort. Not some cheap Mexican hotel. Once you leave the borders of the tourist town, there is no guarantee of your safety. Cartel does not operate in tourist towns because Mexico gets a ton of money from these places, so they have tight security there.
That's OLD info. And is no longer the case. Cartels don't give a crap anymore.
Same as the mafia not allowing open crime in Las Vegas, or ripping off tourists. No longer the case, given the CIA now run the mafia, and they don't give a fuck.
The tourist spots are pretty safe, provided you stay on the resort. They will bus you from the airport to the resort and you will not have any trouble with any corrupt cops or mafiosos. Once on the resort it's lovely and everyone is very nice and loves you so much.
If you get stupid and leave the resort, that's when you have problems. When your car gets stopped by a corrupt cop who takes all your money (if you're lucky). Some people leave the resort and never come back.
Same shit happens in Jamaica. Don't leave the resort EVER!
I live in Mexico, and for much of Mexico, this is BS. Like anywhere else, if you go looking for trouble, you'll find it, but if you're respectful and use common sense, you're good most of the time. You are correct that the resort areas are more secure, but it's not Mad Max outside of the resort towns. Cartel DO operate in tourist towns, however, they typically don't act up because the higher ups live there and their families vacation there. It's also bad for business, as tourists buy a lot of drugs.
My family and I love it here. I have relatives in the US, or else I don't think I'd ever go back. Once you're outside the constant propaganda, you realize you've been in the Matrix. Mexico is far from perfect, but we have a level of freedom and quality of life that would be difficult to find in the US anymore.
I've been going back and forth to TJ to see a doctor. I haven't ever felt unsafe and I'm a woman. It seems to me that people want certain areas kept safe or else it will destroy big economies like medical tourism. I'm more likely to get mugged in California.
I came here to say the same thing. Matamoros is the last place I'd "want" to be kidnapped.
The Work of The Devil.
After Mark Kilroy disappeared in Matamoros during spring break, authorities feared the worst. But they had no idea how bad the worst could be.
https://www.texasmonthly.com/true-crime/the-work-of-the-devil/
Thinks for the link, my memory is 36 years old :) it was a shocker in my HS because we all wanted to go down there and party. Mainly because Texas had just changed the legal age to 19 and then 21. So it put a lot of emphasis on Mexico party time!
If you read the article, the city they traveled to and got kidnapped in is one the US explicitly said "no way, Jose" to travelling to from the US. Dolts shouldn't have traveled there in the first place.
The issue is, I believe its the locals, many have family on both sides of the river.
Edit* After seeing the photos, yea theyre def not locals. Probably a race motivated attack, guess blacks are going to find out white people in america ARENT racist after all, mexican cartels? oh yes they are.
Where's better? There's grenades going off in Sweden, you go to jail for memes in the UK, quarantine camps in Australia, bank account freezes in Canada. Where do you go?
Meh I went a few weeks ago and was fine. Do not drive across the border for any reason. Even Mexican citizens I know have had kidnapping attempts. If you fly to Cancun, though, and avoid looking for things of illicit nature, you will be fine
Why does the FBI want the van back? I can't imagine the FBI helping American citizens - unless they were ballot fraud handlers that the DNC needs back.
I haven't seen any speculation yet on why the FBI wanted them back. Reportedly the FOUR were down there so ONE of them ( LaTavia Burgess/McGee )could get a "Tummy tuck surgery."
"A relative of one of the victims said Monday that the four had traveled together from the Carolinas so one of them could get a tummy tuck surgery from a doctor in Matamoros. "
American tourists killed after being kidnapped in Mexico ID’d as Shaeed Woodard and Zindell Brown
Not to mention that anyone who helps is likely going to see their name on the cartel hit list in the next month. The FBI allows sex traffickers to operate all over Texas, what makes you think they want a witness talking?
The $50k might try to be redeemed by some poor schmuck who ends up getting bodied a few days before the FBI is able to follow up.
Years back, I was dating a Mexican girl. She wanted to go see her grandparents in Mexico by driving. Her sister's husband refused to go saying it's too dangerous, and he's Mexican. Well I went, and yes I'm white. When we got to the grandparents house the uncle was always on the porch, he'd knock on the window any time police or Mexican military was driving by. Which was to tell me to hide. Duh I immediately hid every time. Other than that had a great time. But it was scary. All the stories I was told were pretty scary too. Because who wouldn't ask why I had to hide. Anywho. I wouldn't drive down there if I were you. But hey I'm kind of stupid.
Kidnapping is just around the corner for Americans in America, I suspect.
Sex trafficking is already overlooked in most places people live in the US.
In the city I live in, there are known sex traffickers in town who you can find relatively easily if you know how to ask. And it's been this way for over a decade. And I'm much closer to the Canadian border than Mexican border. The police can't arrest them because they are protected by the woke DA. And they get to continue operating until the DA gets too much political pressure.
The last brothel in town I know of was operating somewhat openly for about 6 years. They got shut down because it made the local justice system a laughing stock once it became so well known. Now the new traffickers just operate outside the city, in trailer parks, away from the wealthy donors.
Antifa, gangs, and the mafia already threaten the DA with impunity. Most people don't know because the local media is filled with supporters of the PR firms of violent organizations.
Most people in my town don't know that the DA woke up to a literal mob outside his house one night in 2020. And nobody was arrested.
The people in town are so caught up in the political violence in DC, Chicago, and SF that they don't notice it happening in their own backyards.
Matamoros is located in one of the six Mexican states the US State currently has listed under its most severe 'do not travel' category, due to local cartels that may rob and/or kidnap American tourists.
Why would four guys travel to a place listed as a "Do not travel"?
Ok, the people based off the photo were not locals, look likes some people from the slums of houston. I was addressing your comment of 'why would people travel to a place that says do not travel', not really THESE people.
However, people that live in brownsville and the rio grande valley frequently travel back and forth to visit family, how do i know this? i live here, not in Brownsville but in the RGV and its not uncommon. I have a friend that drives the 'highway of death' all the time despite the travel warnings and family that goes to reynosa.
It's not the first time, they do get involved with kidnappings of americans in mexico it just isn't publicized. My guess the only reason this is being highly publicized is because the people are black and muhh equity. But the FBI does offer rewards to information with kidnapped americans.
My friend, I literally live in the area. It happens all the time. You are probably somewhere up north and have never been down here. Majority of the things that happen on the border never make it past independent journalist. If you can wade through the information aside from this case, you will see it happens often. Theyre also looking for 3 women who went missing a few days ago in China, NL. But those women are latinas, not black like these people.
Not every single thing is a conspiracy.
Edit: Also ill add; have you ever thought that MAYBE just MAYBE they put a reward on these people because people have been known to fake kidnappings to scam insurances? Or maybe theyre involved with drug trafficking? As much as i want to think its something 'funny' the fact is, the people look like a bunch of thugged out losers that are either scamming the government or theyre running drugs and the FBI is trying to track where theyre getting it from. There is currently a war going on along this stretch where CGNJ is trying to absorb the smaller cartels and militarize the border. Whether theyre doing it in projection or their own self interest who knows, same shit different story. No matter who is sitting in the white house the border has has always been the same, violent.
Wait, The US is suddenly interested in helping Americans?
This glows like dirty CIA shit was going on. 4 guys, 1 van, they were not camping. They are hauling shit, possibly weapons or drugs? Poisoning the water sources?
FBI/CIA glowies helping people jump the boarder were taken??
They were doing something illegal and they are dead.
Everyone poo-poo'ed and acted like it was insane when Trump said we needed to bomb the cartels. Why is that so insane? Mexico is a failed NARCO state ran by terrorists. Their law enforcement is too corrupt. Their government is too corrupt . Anyone who tries to make a difference ends up hanging from a bridge or having their head cut off and sent back to a grieving wife. I don't blame the cops for becoming corrupt at this point. They have to if they want to live because too many before them cowered and gave in. Now the whole system is rotten. We need to treat mexico like the terrorist state it is. It's no different than Iran and probably worse due to the crime at the border. We have human trafficking and a modern day opium war being used against us via MX. Bomb the shit out of them and every known cartel house in the entire country.
"America is a failed rogue nation run by pedophiles. Their law enforcement is too corrupt. Their government is too corrupt . Anyone who tries to make a difference ends up sitting in a DC jail, or having their house raided and getting arrested in front of a grieving wife and kids. I don't blame the cops for becoming corrupt at this point. They have to if they want to have jobs because too many before them cowered and gave in. Now the whole system is rotten. We need to treat America like the terrorist state it is. It's no different than Mexico and probably worse due to the crime everywhere. "
Why isn’t Lawyer Crump, Rev Al, and Jessie Jackson down there having a press conference? They should sue the cartel! Looks like it happens every day as the Mexican men were slinging them all in the flatbed in broad daylight…with the many cars turning around as though someone is blocking traffic with a flat tire. Holy cow!
Button A: Mexico is not a dangerous shithole country, so we don't need a border wall.
Button B: Refugees are supposed to stop at the first safe country they come across to seek asylum, but they walk straight through Mexico and come to America instead.
Now that Christianity has been overthrown in America in favor of the degenerate rainbow religion we can look forward to many more attacks on Americans everywhere as it advertises weakness to the rest of the world and invites aggression signaling that we have fallen and are primed to be raped, pillaged and taken advantage of in every way and in every place.
I went to Mexico one time only. Felt like a pussy as I never felt safe the entire time I was there.
Walking around in their highest end tourist shopping district with police walking around with ARs and the drug dealers (cartel?) walk right up to you in front of the police asking if you want any cocaine. The drug dealer had no fear of the police because the cop was either in on it or paid off. There is no law in that country.
Yeah nothing like offering a 50k reward for a crime we know the fbi doesn’t care about and then not releasing basic info that would help locate the victims.
Can we label the cartel’s terrorists and bomb the shit out of them already? They truly effect everyday American’s lives. But no, let’s send 120 billion to an outlaw government halfway across the globe. 🙄
El salvador is pretty much doing that and they've dropped their murder rate like 98%.
It would be a utopia!
But sheboons would have to be included.
50K for 4 American Citizens. But Tens of Billions for Ukrainian PENSIONS. Just for the PENSIONS. Oooo boy...
They are likely Cartel members employed by the FBI.
👍 "Known to the FBI." Yep.
How much did we pay for that dude that plays women's basketball?
One arms trader
During a war
These Americans were into criminal activity , They were shot at. If they were trying to kidnap them, they would not have killed 2 of them alreadyb
This right here, same things applies to muslims as well. Too many people want to think its poor women and children that are captive in these disfunctional civilizations, yet reality is that the women and children are fully onboard.
Most don't naturally make it to 40 anyway, so yeah, let's go!
What if we could send black males to Mexico?
Problem solved? Cartel members know how to shoot better than blacks so at least one issue is resolved
Let’s do it to atheists and devil worshippers!
it helps that 98% of their prisoners were exported across our non existent border

El Salvador's war on crime explained here.
50%, I use to come here daily, But y’all lie just as much as CNN
And yet, here you are

Why you eating that poison anyway, what are you retarded?
LOL
We spent 20 years, tens of thousands of soldiers' lives, and untold treasure in Afghanistan fighting a bunch of cave-dwelling militiamen who had nothing to do with 9/11 and were incapable of carrying out terror attacks within the US, but we won't touch the cartels literally on our border or spend one cent on border security.
Really activates the almonds, doesn't it?
Not really. We know they are CIA sponsored terrorist groups. If the normies knew this it would be amazing.
And poppy fields in Afghanistan
Many such cases. Sadly.
Don't do heroin.
Okay this might be controversial take. But don't do drugs?
No shit man. Think anyone here is doing heroin?
No, but a bunch of Republicans do coke. Funding Cartels
No that would be the huffington post.
They have predictive programming on the subject on plenty of NPC current thing streaming services! 🤖
So people who's weddings get drone striked don't ever get mad and want to kill Americans?
They are the first pacifist civilization?
And now thanks to Biden they can fly helicopters barefoot.
Keenworthy mention. Stay honorable, my friend.
Those helicopters were given to them by the Afghan security forces during a surrender ceremony.
And who gave those helicopters to the Afghan security forces?
Bush, Obama and Trump
Most of their cash comes from us trying to outlaw something that most Americans want legal.
Unfortunately our laws are dictated by big pharma and not the public.
Exactly. Between 70-90% of the guns found on Mexican soil originated in the US.
Helping our trade deficit, so there's that......
Why would they do that, when the cartels are the feds employees?
No exaggeration. Literally on the feds payroll, with more protections than most Americans.
Slight correction, if I may.
The CIA got into the narcotics trafficking racket so that they could self-fund their operations. Not having to rely on Congress and "official" payroll allowed them to completely avoid oversight.
If an undercover cop pretends to sell drugs to someone on a corner then a bunch of cars pull up and arrest the buyer.
Do you think the police department is trying to fund itself with those funds or arrest drug users?
Sometimes both.
So glad you acknowledge the difference between Rouge officers in the Cia and counter intelligence operations were officers posed as drug sellers.
But they aren't trying to actually flood the community with the drugs. Just arrest and infiltrate organizations.
Mexico is rich in oil, they just lack the competence to manage it. Talk about a country WORTH nation building! They sit on our border, have a shit ton of oil and are the launching pad for all the garbage pouring into our country. We don’t need a wall we need to crush their power centers and establish a puppet regime and start harvesting that oil!
Mexican oil company Pemex was owned by Jorge Diaz Sorano.
Pemex was used as the shell company for Operation Condor, which was the genesis of Iran/Contra and heroin smuggling.
Jorge Diaz Soriano had previously been business partners with George HW Bush in the Zapata Oil Corporation.
George HW Bush would later become head of the CIA which orchestrated Iran/Contra.
I'm starting to see a pattern here.
Didn't a Pemex just explode like last week?
Financial news shows they just posted their first profit in more than a decade.
But they're also pledging to adopt ESG rules so they can secure bank financing.
Facilities the size of college campuses, with on site fire brigades..... had a fire?
And we're operating within 24 hours?
Never go full q anon
So you think the fire was a coincidence? Same as all the train fires right? Lol you must get taken advantage of a lot being so gullible.
Yeah it was a coincidence. See the fire marshalls reports.
If the Mexican fire marshalls said it it must be true. Good point.
But then if Mexico succeeds , How will we be able to convince them to work for cheap pay over here in The States
The riff raff being exported from Central America is what's pouring over our borders now. Mexico has exported their underclass to us already, now it's time for Honduras and El Salvador to gather up all their criminals and chronic poor underclass and bus them to the border.
That's what's going on you know? These shithole governments have a population they want to get rid of so they round them up from prisons and street shanties and put them on one way busses to the American border.
They will NOT take them back. Not ever.
Lol no, People come by themselves. The government doesn’t tell them to move up here.
Family members already living here, Pay their coyote to bring the rest of the family over.
The Mexican Government don’t need to tell anyone to come,
The US politicians attract them
Oh yeah, sure. hundreds of thousands of people from the same underclass of society from Central America all just decided at once. Totally organic.
Oo you’re talking about the caravans, Those are the losers wanting freebies. The ones sneaking in, actually are trying to work for a living. And most illegals pay taxes as well, using a ITiN provided by the Feds.

Seems to be working ....
Violent Aztec genetics
Yes. Was talking to my dad about the insanely brutal Aztecs and Mayas, and how there's likely some connecting thread to the modern violence of the Cartels and MS13. These guys would make ISIS blush. Interesting to see someone else think the same way.
Cortez did nothing wrong
No, he did not. Cortez saved the New World.
They’re demon worshippers
Or just demons
Ms13 are Salvadorans
There were a lot of scary events down in Matamoros/Brownsville in the late 80s, early 90s. This one was very spectacular because it involved a spring breaker.

OMG...I never heard this story before. What absolute evil monsters there are in the world - this is horrific. RIP Mark Kilroy :*-(
The cult leader was a faggot:
Constanzo had taken the precaution of ordaining El Duby and transferring to him the power to make human sacrifices; now he commanded El Duby to perform the ultimate ritual — Constanzo wanted to die with his lover and bodyguard, Martin Quintana Rodriquez

I'm sure alcohol was the major component of the Kilroy story.

Cartels run the tourist towns. No violence because the cartel wants to protect revenue stream.
True. The cartels run EVERYTHING in Mexico, including the government.
The cartels even have revenue streams that depend on tourism.
The tourist spots are pretty safe, provided you stay on the resort. They will bus you from the airport to the resort and you will not have any trouble with any corrupt cops or mafiosos. Once on the resort it's lovely and everyone is very nice and loves you so much.
If you get stupid and leave the resort, that's when you have problems. When your car gets stopped by a corrupt cop who takes all your money (if you're lucky). Some people leave the resort and never come back.
Same shit happens in Jamaica. Don't leave the resort EVER!
I live in Mexico, and for much of Mexico, this is BS. Like anywhere else, if you go looking for trouble, you'll find it, but if you're respectful and use common sense, you're good most of the time. You are correct that the resort areas are more secure, but it's not Mad Max outside of the resort towns. Cartel DO operate in tourist towns, however, they typically don't act up because the higher ups live there and their families vacation there. It's also bad for business, as tourists buy a lot of drugs.
My family and I love it here. I have relatives in the US, or else I don't think I'd ever go back. Once you're outside the constant propaganda, you realize you've been in the Matrix. Mexico is far from perfect, but we have a level of freedom and quality of life that would be difficult to find in the US anymore.
I've been going back and forth to TJ to see a doctor. I haven't ever felt unsafe and I'm a woman. It seems to me that people want certain areas kept safe or else it will destroy big economies like medical tourism. I'm more likely to get mugged in California.
I came here to say the same thing. Matamoros is the last place I'd "want" to be kidnapped. The Work of The Devil. After Mark Kilroy disappeared in Matamoros during spring break, authorities feared the worst. But they had no idea how bad the worst could be. https://www.texasmonthly.com/true-crime/the-work-of-the-devil/
Thinks for the link, my memory is 36 years old :) it was a shocker in my HS because we all wanted to go down there and party. Mainly because Texas had just changed the legal age to 19 and then 21. So it put a lot of emphasis on Mexico party time!
What?! Really?
How stupid do you have to be to leave this country at this time 😂
Women want to travel to see the world.
.

So they can take selfies and post pics of their ass on social media.
Women complain about men catcalling them, then will backpack solo through Pakistan.
...and Twerking. Let's not forget the Horrid Floppy Cellulite Ridden Assess, like bags of Rancid Cottage Cheese, Twerking.
A modern poetic masterpiece. Truly.
Twerk on my dick if you female
You're ALREADY sitting on your FAT FEMALE BasedBEAN CarLOTTA. Twerk that Cottage Cheese and quaff the smell. lol

Based sportster guy
If you read the article, the city they traveled to and got kidnapped in is one the US explicitly said "no way, Jose" to travelling to from the US. Dolts shouldn't have traveled there in the first place.
The issue is, I believe its the locals, many have family on both sides of the river.
Edit* After seeing the photos, yea theyre def not locals. Probably a race motivated attack, guess blacks are going to find out white people in america ARENT racist after all, mexican cartels? oh yes they are.
The problem worked it self out. They were probably vaccinated and boosted
How stupid do you have to be to stay in it?
Where's better? There's grenades going off in Sweden, you go to jail for memes in the UK, quarantine camps in Australia, bank account freezes in Canada. Where do you go?
Imma say Fuck it and live in the woods yo
Unfortunately they'll drone strike you and say you started the fire.
During a few kulak uprisings in 1919, the bolsheviks used gas from ww1 stockpiles to flush them out of the woods.
I hear Antarctica is nice this time of year.
Sort of agree.
They were probably dems, Republicans only go to alaska and branson
🎯
Stupid prizes.
I cannot imagine going into Mexico right now for any reason.
Same.
My normie wife still wants to go because her cousin just went.
Her cousin was there for 2 days and was part of a tourist group. It was a guided tour.
I love my wife, but fuck she can be so naive about everything.
Make sure to show her the video from the article, then.
It wouldnt change her mind. She will still want to go.
Never marry a normie fellas.
Show her some of the videos cartels make, then.
I miss BestGore, the only website that showed you how it really is.
There are plenty other sites out there with all those videos still
Meh I went a few weeks ago and was fine. Do not drive across the border for any reason. Even Mexican citizens I know have had kidnapping attempts. If you fly to Cancun, though, and avoid looking for things of illicit nature, you will be fine
It's a fallen Country.
Cartels run everything -
there is no law.
You mean America right?
We are no where close to how bad it could be...
Why does the FBI want the van back? I can't imagine the FBI helping American citizens - unless they were ballot fraud handlers that the DNC needs back.
Agreed.
This is a $50,000 honeypot where you report information and then end up being killed the next week "shortly before the FBI is able to follow up".
For the witnesses, best to tell your pastor anonymously and let him figure out what to do with the information.
For the family, best to hire a private investigator and pay for hostage negotiations.
I haven't seen any speculation yet on why the FBI wanted them back. Reportedly the FOUR were down there so ONE of them ( LaTavia Burgess/McGee )could get a "Tummy tuck surgery."
"A relative of one of the victims said Monday that the four had traveled together from the Carolinas so one of them could get a tummy tuck surgery from a doctor in Matamoros. "

FBI values your life at $12.5K
I bet less so - they are probably hedging the bet that the reward is not even worth accepting, considering the kidnappers could easily get more.
Not to mention that anyone who helps is likely going to see their name on the cartel hit list in the next month. The FBI allows sex traffickers to operate all over Texas, what makes you think they want a witness talking?
The $50k might try to be redeemed by some poor schmuck who ends up getting bodied a few days before the FBI is able to follow up.
Do not ever go into Mexico, ever. Sorry, but that's our current reality.
Forget cousin Tina's destination wedding in Cozumel. Your life is not worth it.
lol. ok, doomer
Ok groomer
Years back, I was dating a Mexican girl. She wanted to go see her grandparents in Mexico by driving. Her sister's husband refused to go saying it's too dangerous, and he's Mexican. Well I went, and yes I'm white. When we got to the grandparents house the uncle was always on the porch, he'd knock on the window any time police or Mexican military was driving by. Which was to tell me to hide. Duh I immediately hid every time. Other than that had a great time. But it was scary. All the stories I was told were pretty scary too. Because who wouldn't ask why I had to hide. Anywho. I wouldn't drive down there if I were you. But hey I'm kind of stupid.
Why did you have to hide?
Ah sweet summer child.
Because the Mexican policia are just cartel people in nice uniforms looking for white Americans to kidnap.
Kidnapping is just around the corner for Americans in America, I suspect.
Sex trafficking is already overlooked in most places people live in the US.
In the city I live in, there are known sex traffickers in town who you can find relatively easily if you know how to ask. And it's been this way for over a decade. And I'm much closer to the Canadian border than Mexican border. The police can't arrest them because they are protected by the woke DA. And they get to continue operating until the DA gets too much political pressure.
The last brothel in town I know of was operating somewhat openly for about 6 years. They got shut down because it made the local justice system a laughing stock once it became so well known. Now the new traffickers just operate outside the city, in trailer parks, away from the wealthy donors.
Sounds like the people need to start routing around the DA.
Antifa, gangs, and the mafia already threaten the DA with impunity. Most people don't know because the local media is filled with supporters of the PR firms of violent organizations.
Most people in my town don't know that the DA woke up to a literal mob outside his house one night in 2020. And nobody was arrested.
The people in town are so caught up in the political violence in DC, Chicago, and SF that they don't notice it happening in their own backyards.
Why would four guys travel to a place listed as a "Do not travel"?
Because people along the texas border have family on both sides.
Link me to where it says they were "Visiting family"
Thanks in advance.
Ok, the people based off the photo were not locals, look likes some people from the slums of houston. I was addressing your comment of 'why would people travel to a place that says do not travel', not really THESE people.
However, people that live in brownsville and the rio grande valley frequently travel back and forth to visit family, how do i know this? i live here, not in Brownsville but in the RGV and its not uncommon. I have a friend that drives the 'highway of death' all the time despite the travel warnings and family that goes to reynosa.
You are not yet suspicious enough.
Based on my post and the others questioning why the FBI would offer a reward for "random" americans, can you come up with a different concludion now?
It's not the first time, they do get involved with kidnappings of americans in mexico it just isn't publicized. My guess the only reason this is being highly publicized is because the people are black and muhh equity. But the FBI does offer rewards to information with kidnapped americans.
Again, you aren't suspicious enough.
You guessing over it and giving them the benefit of the doubt is naive.
My friend, I literally live in the area. It happens all the time. You are probably somewhere up north and have never been down here. Majority of the things that happen on the border never make it past independent journalist. If you can wade through the information aside from this case, you will see it happens often. Theyre also looking for 3 women who went missing a few days ago in China, NL. But those women are latinas, not black like these people.
Not every single thing is a conspiracy.
Edit: Also ill add; have you ever thought that MAYBE just MAYBE they put a reward on these people because people have been known to fake kidnappings to scam insurances? Or maybe theyre involved with drug trafficking? As much as i want to think its something 'funny' the fact is, the people look like a bunch of thugged out losers that are either scamming the government or theyre running drugs and the FBI is trying to track where theyre getting it from. There is currently a war going on along this stretch where CGNJ is trying to absorb the smaller cartels and militarize the border. Whether theyre doing it in projection or their own self interest who knows, same shit different story. No matter who is sitting in the white house the border has has always been the same, violent.
they're all already a mix-matched pile of severed body parts by now. tell the fbi to check their favorite gore video sites if they want to find them.
Wait, The US is suddenly interested in helping Americans?
This glows like dirty CIA shit was going on. 4 guys, 1 van, they were not camping. They are hauling shit, possibly weapons or drugs? Poisoning the water sources?
FBI/CIA glowies helping people jump the boarder were taken??
They were doing something illegal and they are dead.
Everyone poo-poo'ed and acted like it was insane when Trump said we needed to bomb the cartels. Why is that so insane? Mexico is a failed NARCO state ran by terrorists. Their law enforcement is too corrupt. Their government is too corrupt . Anyone who tries to make a difference ends up hanging from a bridge or having their head cut off and sent back to a grieving wife. I don't blame the cops for becoming corrupt at this point. They have to if they want to live because too many before them cowered and gave in. Now the whole system is rotten. We need to treat mexico like the terrorist state it is. It's no different than Iran and probably worse due to the crime at the border. We have human trafficking and a modern day opium war being used against us via MX. Bomb the shit out of them and every known cartel house in the entire country.
The CIA appreciates your noticing their hard work
That reward is honestly pathetic.
Mexicans identifying as Americans I’m sure
Oh, good grief they weren’t tourists. They went there in order to smuggle.
As much as I like parts of Mexico but still I won't go there now especially the border. Anyone that does needs there head examined
I have a family member who is talking about going to Mexico for a vacation. I tried to talk her out of it, but I think she thinks I’m crazy.
50k reward for 4 Americans when that won't even by Zelensky's wife a nice handbag.
Why isn’t Lawyer Crump, Rev Al, and Jessie Jackson down there having a press conference? They should sue the cartel! Looks like it happens every day as the Mexican men were slinging them all in the flatbed in broad daylight…with the many cars turning around as though someone is blocking traffic with a flat tire. Holy cow!
Happens all the time. How did this make the news?
The average American is worth $12,500 (before taxes).
Unless you're in a high crime demographic and live in California.
Button A: Mexico is not a dangerous shithole country, so we don't need a border wall.
Button B: Refugees are supposed to stop at the first safe country they come across to seek asylum, but they walk straight through Mexico and come to America instead.
<brow sweat intensifies>
Names not released... 50k reward. Lol.
Must be retarded women going on a "fun" trip into a dangerous place. As usual
They should go to somolia and become sex slaves lol.
Now that Christianity has been overthrown in America in favor of the degenerate rainbow religion we can look forward to many more attacks on Americans everywhere as it advertises weakness to the rest of the world and invites aggression signaling that we have fallen and are primed to be raped, pillaged and taken advantage of in every way and in every place.
I went to Mexico one time only. Felt like a pussy as I never felt safe the entire time I was there.
Walking around in their highest end tourist shopping district with police walking around with ARs and the drug dealers (cartel?) walk right up to you in front of the police asking if you want any cocaine. The drug dealer had no fear of the police because the cop was either in on it or paid off. There is no law in that country.
Sorry but if you are so fucking stupid as to travel into Mexico without escort you deserve what you get. Hopefully they hadn't bred yet.
Yeah nothing like offering a 50k reward for a crime we know the fbi doesn’t care about and then not releasing basic info that would help locate the victims.
Smells like shitty fish to me.
Probably blacks or mexicans... If they were white or "the new white" us proud asians it wouldn't even be on the news.
I'm surprised under Biden this isn't happening inside the US border states.
Stop visiting countries that hate you. Especially third world countries full of savages
No worries guy! Cnn says it's just a case of mistaken identity /s
https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/06/americas/fbi-mexico-kidnapping-us-citizens/index.html
That's only $12,500.00 per person. They're going to have to pump those numbers!
Three day? They are deader than fried chicken.
