One group in the border city of Ciudad Juarez pledged last week to "clean our city of these criminals" and said their mission was to "end the life of a criminal every 24 hours." [More]I'm trying to find the downside here.
The government that wants them disarmed isn't stopping the victimization, and is often in partnership with the gangs. What are people supposed to do under these circumstances? I'd be tempted to go all Guatemalan myself.
I guess it's time for my obligatory summation:
Damned American gun shows.
Curses! Foiled Again! has more.

At least these "vigilantes" know (thanks to various "experts") where they can buy:
(1) automatic assault rifles, ready to be "spray-fired from hip";
(2) high-powered sniper rifles (aka, hunting rifles);
(3) grenades and rocket launchers;
(4) high-power clips and cop-killer bullets;
(5) maybe a Sherman tank or two.
I believe there is a gun show in Phoenix in a couple of days. Time to stock up!
well, it might devolve into a witch hunt. it might be an excuse for political killings. there's a lot of possibilities, but i see no evidence of that.
on the other hand? i see absolutely no receipt from ciudad juarez in this group's filing cabinet where they paid for this "service."
if they wanted it, they'd have bought it. voting on such a thing is, apparently, for americans.
Don't forget "shoulder things that go up".
