Chicago Robbers Appear to Copy Mexican Cartel Roadblock Tactics
AP
A group of robbers on the south side of Chicago appear to have taken a page out of the Gulf Cartel or Los Zetas manual for setting up roadblocks in order to carry out violent robberies. Just last week a group of three or four robbers have used a construction area in the city’s south side to set up roadblocks as a trap for motorists.
Once the motorists stop, they were assaulted and robbed, UPI news reported.
The practice bears a striking similarity to a practice already established by both the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas who set up roadblocks around Mexican border cities to keep their enemies out or to rob unsuspecting motorists.
Cartel roadblocks are so common in the border state of Tamaulipas, as Breitbart Texas previously reported, that Mexican Federal Police officers actually set up convoys to escort tourists from southern cities in that state to the border cities of Matamoros and Reynosa.
“It’s already known that Mexican cartels control a significant amount of illegal drug trade in Chicago, but for local criminals to start using tactics that cartels in Mexico have been using for years, that is truly disturbing,” said Sylvia Longmire, a border security expert and Contributing Editor for Breitbart Texas. “The question is did these robbers intentionally copy cartels or are they coming up with these tactics on their own? Was this an isolated incident, or will we be seeing more of these roadblocks across Chicago in the future? The answers to these questions, if they ever are resolved, could become a huge concern to the city of Chicago and its residents.”
While the Gulf Cartel is known for having its operations along the Texas-Mexico border, in the past its tentacles have reached Chicago in order to carry out kidnappings and executions tied to missing drug loads, Breitbart Texas Managing Editor Brandon Darby previously reported. In that article, members of a street gang called the Two Six Nation, which had ties to the Gulf Cartel, were indicted on kidnapping and murder charges. They directed “members of the Two Six Nation to kidnap the family of Julio Cartagena (Cartagena was also a member of the Two Six), in an effort to recover a large quantity of cocaine stolen by Cartagena from Fuentes.” The drugs had been fronted by the Gulf Cartel to the Chicago gang before they were stolen. A second kidnapping attempt proved fatal when Two Six Nation members tried to take Cartagena but ended up murdering him instead.

WELFARE STATE on the BACKS OF AMERICA’S LOOTED MIDDLE-CLASS:
“The lifetime costs of Social Security
and Medicare benefits of illegal immigrant beneficiaries of President Obama’s
executive amnesty would be well over a trillion dollars, according to Heritage
Foundation expert Robert Rector’s prepared testimony for a House panel obtained
in advance by Breitbart News.”
THE
LA RAZA MEXICAN CRIME TIDAL WAVE FLOODS AMERICA!
THERE IS A REASON WHY THE
MEXICAN OPERATE IN MORE THAN 2,500
AMERICAN CITIES, INCLUDING OBAMA’S CHICAGO!
THE MEXICAN IN OBAMA’S
HOMETOWN OF CHICAGO:
Chicago Democrats are hoping to make the Windy City the model for
enrolling illegal immigrants into whatever new benefits the Obama
administration might adopt.
Rep. Luis Gutiérrez (D-Ill.) and Chicago Mayor Rahm
Emanuel (D) joined forces Wednesday with roughly 50 civic leaders to
launch a comprehensive strategy for signing up those immigrants who might become
newly eligible for any new benefits coming out of the administration.
BARACK OBAMA and his
BANKSTER BUDDY MAYOR RAHM EMANUEL IMPOSE OBAMANOMICS MARSHALL LAW ON ILLINOIS!
Obama at the national level and Emanuel in Chicago have
carried out equivalent attacks on the social rights of working people…. AS THEY
SERVE THEIR BANKSTER CRONIES!

Global
financial markets are on the road to another crash, with consequences even more
serious than the collapse of September 2008. There have been a series of dire
warnings from within the ruling class itself that present monetary policies
have created massive financial bubbles with devastating consequences.

AMNESTY: The solution to keep wages
depressed
“A more recent national survey by the
Federal Reserve, based on 2013 data, suggests the problem has not only
persisted as the economy recovered but may even have worsened. More than 30
percent of Americans reported spikes and dips in their incomes. Among that
group, 42 percent cited an irregular work schedule; an additional 27 percent
blamed a span of joblessness or seasonal work.”
“In the two advanced countries with the greatest income
inequality, Spain and the United States, job losses and wage cuts accounted for nearly all the
increase in inequality.”
CRONY CAPITALISM…
predicated on keeping wages depressed to third world levels for his billionaire
donors!
