The Border

During the recent weeks and months there have been horrendous attacks on people who live in and around the areas of the Texas/Mexico borders.  Gangs who are associated with different drug cartels have advance their attacks against local law enforcement personnel as well as local citizens.  These attacks are an attempt to control the drug traffic which they have been maintaining along the border areas.  Texas has issued warnings to would be traveler's to stay away from these border towns when going on vacations.  It has become too dangerous to travel to these areas because of the drug wars that are going on.  Mexico has said that this is causing them to loose needed revenue during the vacation season, and is simply untrue.  Yet we see recent accounts of beheaded bodies being strewn alongside a road in a certain area of Mexico.  This leaves us with an uneasy feeling about crossing the border into Mexico or even being close to those border towns.
