Now, It's Car Bombs In Juarez

Juarez, murder capitol of Mexico and just on the other side of El Paso, was hit by a car bomb in the downtown area.
From the El Paso Times: "Two Mexican police officers and a paramedic died in the explosion in Juárez, Mexico's attorney general said today.
A Ford Focus rammed two federal police vehicles about 8 p.m. Thursday in the Downtown district. The explosion occurred soon after.
Killed were a federal police officer, a city police officer and a paramedic.
According to news reports, at least 16 people were wounded, including a Channel 5 cameraman.
The explosion occurred on 16 de Septiembre avenue, site of the Juárez mercado and other tourist attractions. The blast was heard and seen from afar on the U.S. side of the border"

The video in the article is graphic, so beware.

So, who cares what happens in Juarez and Mexico. Well, what happens in Mexico usually will happen in the United States as well. Drug Gangs. Check Kidnappings. Check. Murder. Check. Drugs. Check. Intimidation. Check
I wouldn't surprised if we see a car bomb in our near future.
