At least nine U.S. citizens, including six children, who lived in a Mormon community in northern Mexico were killed Monday in a hail of gunfire, according to family members and Mexican officials. Relatives said they suspected it was a case of mistaken identity by drug cartel gunmen, but there has been no confirmation of a motive in the attack.
Family members told "CBS This Morning" that the FBI has opened an investigation into the killings. It happened Monday near the town of Bavispe, about 100 miles south of the Arizona border. The victims all left their community at the same time in three separate cars, some were traveling back to the U.S., some to a neighboring town for a wedding.
The families are members of the La Mora settlement, a decades-old community in Sonora state founded as an offshoot of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
One relative said he located one of the burned-out, bullet-ridden SUVs containing the remains of his nephew's wife and her four children, twin seven-month old babies and two other children aged 8 and 10.

It's time to send in the Military, the FBI was applicable about a decade ago. This just got off of the chain.
No amount of pressure on Mexican Politicians is going to fix this.

I agree. Time to get really serious.

Part of my take on this is, "If you're an American Citizen living in Cartel land, maybe you need to pack your bags and Get the Fook out of Dodge."

Military won't intervene shit.

The guns were probably the ones given to them by us.

Call me cynical.

Concerned, not more concerned.

What would happen if we nudged the governments of the Central American countries toward cleaning up their governments and improving the conditions for their citizens by earmarking 1/2 the money we give to Israel and the Sauds for them?

Most of you know that I’m pretty anti-war, but this seems like a good time for DoD to do send a message and make a hundred or so examples.
