Latest Attack in Mexico Shows Depth of Border Crisis

A Mexican police station was attacked by cartel gangsters with grenades and rifles. Although the perpetrators were captured, this shows just how violent the border area is. Breitbart reports:

The State Security Commission (CES) announced the arrest of two individuals suspected of carrying out a grenade and rifle attack on a state police facility in Juárez Wednesday. The incident left one officer wounded with non-life-threatening injuries after being struck by gunfire.

A group of cartel gunmen sprayed rifle fire and tossed two fragmentation grenades at the government installation which houses the command staff of the state police commission at approximately 12:50 am on Wednesday morning, according to local reports. The attack triggered a joint police and military operation to locate and capture the gunmen. A short time later, security elements stopped a Ford vehicle with a Texas license plate and subsequently arrested both occupants later identified as Javier H. R. and Ana G. C., both 19. A search of their vehicle reportedly produced a 9mm pistol. Both were later turned over to the custody of state attorney general’s office. Police also recovered an abandoned Chevrolet in colonia Exhipódromo. The vehicle was reported stolen is also believed used during the attack. A total of nine, 9mm rounds of ammunition were found inside the vehicle.

Investigators at the police station recovered at least 80 spent shell casings and military bomb techs were summoned to collect the two fragmentation grenades that failed to detonate, according to Commander Amiklar Chavez Alarcón, chief of the state police assigned to the installation.

The attack is supposedly related to a threatening narco-banner displayed on Tuesday night near a baseball field, according to local reports. The message made direct threats against Commandante Amiklar Chavez Alarcón, accusing him of working for the Juarez Cartel and presumably signed by “El Chapulin” of the Gente Nueva of the Sinaloa Cartel. Breitbart law enforcement sources also indicated that the Nuevo Cartel de Juárez is making similar threats against local police.

Violence and unrestricted immigration are turning the Southern areas of America into a disaster zone. Congress will have to take action before it’s too late.

Congress won’t do anything, they are useless, and it goes back to Boehner and Ryan, two of the most reprehensible POS to ever occupy the Congress. This congress and the previous one hate America and Americans and they prove it every day. McCarthy is just more of the same, worthless.

This is exactly what the globalist socialist Democrats seem to want.

What this nation really “NEEDS” is Jesus Christ and HIS words, as found “ONLY” in The King James Bible! The wall is still needed, and other things, but, according to Matt 6:33, it says “Seek “YE” (all inclusive-NO exceptions) first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” IF this nation would “SEEK” (Isa 34:16) Jesus Christ this nation would return to the “OLD PATHS” yet, will it ever return, mostlikely now! What was once men seeking GOD has now become a movement, w/all man’s supoosed glory! This will end in destruction!

Sorry Bruce but I don’t believe that anyone on the radical far left is going to cooperate with your suggestion. The only thing they believe in is power and greed. The only thing they want is to bring our country down and rule it their way.

I agree with both Bruce and Gerry. It appears that all we can do is PRAY and trust in God. We are told that He works all things together for good, for those who love Him and keep his commandments (paraphrasing is mine). Keeping His commandments is not easy, but we were never told that this life would be easy. Trust in Him. Spread the Word. Judging from all the things happening in the world, it appears that the Second Coming may be near. —
