Oh just friggin' great. Mara Salvatruchas to confront Minutemen?

[MnFats]

don't know how accurate this may be, and yeah it's a few days old, but one imagines all hell breaking loose if the most violent gang in North America shows up in the desert arroyos to confront the Minutemen ... what a bizarre scene that would be....

SNIPPET
A high level leader of the Mara Salvatruchas, Ebner Anivel Rivera-Paz, has issued orders, from federal prison, to members of his extremely violent organization to teach the Minutemen vigilantes a lesson they will never forget, La Voz de Aztlan has learned.
The Mara Salvatruchas (MS-13) are a consequence of USA policies in Central America and are just another example of "the chickens coming home to roost". Its members are the sons of immigrants from El Salvador and other Central American countries that were forced to flee because of the CIA instigated war during the Reagan Administration that completely destroyed the physical, economic, social, religious and cultural infrastructure of the region. MS-13 was founded in Los Angeles by the offspring of the immigrants for protection. Later, many of the members were deported back to Central America where they expanded their operations and found fertile ground for the recruitment of new members among the hundreds of thousand of young people with no hope or future.

1. I'd say MS-13 is probably better armed.

What a mess that will be eh?

[ulysses]

2. THAT'LL be interesting.

What a great idea this is turning out to be!

3. I predict the Minutemen would take much less than

1 minute to scurry back to their cars and get the hell out of there.

4. absolutely

BOO!

[enki23]

5. ironically, they may be reluctant to do much because of all the attention

and because of the human rights organizations which are having the "minutemen" followed.

and on a completely different note, aren't the "minutemen" aware their name is slang for someone who has a problem with premature ejaculation?

6. Ay-Chi-hua-hua.

Hey "Minutemen," if you end up starting a fucking war in my backyard, you are going to regret it. Not because of me, but because of them.

Sheesh, yeah just what we need. :eyes:

[KamaAina]

7. La Voz de Aztlan isn't a very credible source

it's come up at DU before. LOTS of tinfoil-hat stuff, :tinfoilhat: mixed in (as is so often the case) with some good old-fashioned hate speech.

8. The fascists will be calling the border patrol to save their sorry asses.

9. Great

Two extremist organizations meet. This is the fault of these minuscule men though. They are doing nothing except being antagonistic which solves nothing. I really hope this does not end in violence.
