South of the Border,
They call Mexico South of the Border,
They call it South of the Border,
Which not a lot of people know.

How about just stating that they are not the finest people. Because that's a fact.

They're not sending their best,
They've got some bad hombres.
They're bringing crime,
They're bringing therapists.

And some, I assume, are good people.

It's really sad they had to go to Mexico to afford medicine and then got caught up in all of this.

But yes, how terrifying. I'll pray for them.

That's judgy as hell. Many seniors get medicine in Mex bc they cant afford it here. The prices are much lower there.

No they don't. They buy them from Canada, or India, depending on their comfort level. It's not seniors who go to Mexico for medicine.

Sure they do. We used to do it as college kids too. I wouldn’t go today but not everyone knows how much those towns have changed.

The female American traveled to Mexico to get a tummy tuck.

Two of the four are now dead.
Mexico is owned by cartels.
Go at your own risk.

Horrible. I have no faith that the corrupt Mexican government will hold those responsible accountable.

One of those alive is severely injured.

The woman was apparently headed to Mexico for a tummy tuck.

Hold those responsible accountable? You want the Mexican government to, just, shut down the cartels? They would love too. Are you going to tell them how to do it? Volunteer to go do it yourself? I'm sure you'll get a medal for your efforts.

The four have been identified:

The family reveals they went to Mexico so the woman could get a tummy tuck procedure. It is thought that the cartel mistook them for Haitian migrants who have been camped out at the border. Haitian migrants have allegedly been selling drugs and committing crime, so it mistaken for a turf issue.

Very sad.

Actually, yes. And, if they need assistance, the US military would be happy to oblige.
Eliminate the cartels altogether. They are a scourge on the world.

Officials did not immediately name the victims. The Americans have been identified by family members as three friends who were accompanying a fourth who planned to undergo a medical procedure in Mexico.

Latavia “Tay” McGee, her cousin Shaeed Woodard and friends Zindell Brown and Eric James Williams, traveling in a minivan with North Carolina plates, had reportedly just crossed over the border from Brownsville, Tex., to Matamoros when they were fired on and abducted by unidentified assailants.

a tummy tuck is not required medicine or medical procedure.
