A war (none / 0)

Isn't there major unrest in Northern Mexico.  I believe that the US Cousulate in one city closed down because there is basically a civil war going on.

Re: A war (none / 0)

That's Laredo, which is along the border with Texas. It's true that the situation there is pretty much civil war but the problem is that Laredo is a hugely important port of entry for the US and Mexico and both legitimate governments want the action cooled out. But the local thugs are enjoying the "spoils of war".
