    Shootout in Reynosa...

    Once again the Mexican border city of Reynosa was the stage of violent firefights. Gulf Cartel gunmen exchanged gunfire barrages with Mexican police and military forces. However, the Tamaulipas government remains quiet about the casualties.

    The shoot-outs were reported by citizen journalists earlier this week in various areas of the city. The reports pointed to various trucks filled with gunmen exchanging gunshots with police and military. Additional gunmen responding to the scenes of the shoot-outs.

    The City of Reynosa even sent out an alert on social media warning the public about a “situation of risk” along Boulevard Hidalgo. This is one of the main roads that crosses the city. The message warned citizens to avoid the areas near Narciso Mendoza and Caracoles neighborhoods.

    A few notes...

    I thought guns were banned in Mexico
    Any Lions killed?
    Were Confederate Battle Flags involved?

    I've only been to Reynosa once, when I was 12. The only thing that I remember is seeing this for the first time:
    "It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

      My nanna retired is south TX and her house was 7 miles from the Matamoros bridge. I used to drive across the bridge to go to the stores and to site see by myself when I was 12. It was a sleepy little place back then and you had to go looking for trouble to find any.

      See what the war on drugs has accomplished. Wonderful isn't it.

                  They're adding manufacturing jobs hardcore. In 30 years we may be sneaking over there for employment.
