MEXICO CITY (AP) — A big shootout between rival drug gangs killed 19 people in the northern Mexico border state of Chihuahua, state prosecutors' office said Saturday.

A total of 18 corpses, two grenades, vehicles and guns were found at the scene of the clash in the hamlet of Chuchuichupa the township of Madera.

The Guardian said grenades found too:  https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/apr/05/major-drug-gang-shootout-leaves-19-dead-in-northern-mexico

This battle and quite a battle it was is not all that far from the Border, I'd guess 75-100 miles from a map I saw. So, not at the border but not too far away.

It must be a slow news day. Doesn't this happen all the time?

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

It does.  Shootouts, dismemberments, beheadings.  Political assassinations...………..
