[shoreline]

4. I wonder...

...if he was a member of Oathkeepers as well...

[glinda]

6. Selling machine guns to undercover cops? For what reason?

[Posteritatis]

16. It's hard to overestimate the potential stupidity of some Oathkeepers. (nt)

7. Why is it that I am not surprised?

Here is a piece of random data...

The Zetas are all Former Mexican Special Forces, gone rogue...

You think some of ours are not reachable?

9. Money! Money! Money! - The cartels are moving North. Weren't

those Mexican Special Forces trained in the US. God! we're stupid!

10. MS 13, they are expanding

:-)

[Bobbieo]

11. And that is why I am so pissed because Prop 19 failed!!!

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. Reality is that it would have done little or no difference

they started going into other lines when I was still a medic... but it should be legalized and I voted for it. The war on drugs has failed, horribly so.

Yes I have seen close and personal some of their other business. Remember those statues in traffic? They're based in reality. Crafty too, and the doggies could not smell them!

[Bobbieo]

13. It would have been a small start. I ,also, have been close and personal to some of their business

for reasons other than yours. In many ways I am still too close!!!!

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. Stay safe

they are a special brand of animals.

[newspeak]

15. yeah, well some of these Mobsters

are shaking down people there--there's lawlessness in some places. Give us money or we kill you, give us money or we'll destroy your house. I'd say it's looking like a very powerful mexican mafia.

some of the americans complaining about immigration--maybe they should think how some of our own are abetting the violence in Mexico.

The investigation began with a tip from a fourth man, an ex-felon turned confidential informant facing felony battery domestic violence and robbery charges in Nevada. He is cooperating with authorities and was not charged in the federal case. Neither the informant nor the undercover agent was identified. Bickle is quoted in the complaint as warning the informant of the consequences of turning against him. "If you ever (expletive) me, you know who we are," he is quoted as saying. "We're the government, we'll catch you."
