News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

MEXICO CITY, Dec 31 (Reuters) - Masked gunmen burst into a wedding in southern Mexico late on Saturday and shot dead seven guests in an apparent settling of scores as a year riddled by gangland-style murders drew to an end.

Officials in the crime-ridden Pacific Coast state of Guerrero reported the shooting on Sunday as police elsewhere in Mexico said they found five other dead bodies bearing the hallmarks of crime gang killings.

Some 2,000 people have died this year in Mexico in an increasingly brutal war between rival drug cartels.
