I saw it on Boderlandbeat.com

Yup, they got him. May be time again to go on maximum security alert. Hope there aren't more reprisals in GDL.

Guzman

According to various news reports, there is considerable doubt that this subject is actually who authorities thought.

<<The boyish, heavyset Guzman Salazar, known as "El Gordo," or "Fattie," was captured early Thursday during a raid by marines in Zapopan, an upscale suburb of the western city of Guadalajara, >>

now, what was Spencer saying about Zapopan recently? (think it was on TOB...I get so confused with all the boards)

It ain't him.

Preventing returns?

There is a very different tone in the Mexican media reports vs those from the NOB press. As Chris asked: "What's a car salesman doing with grenade launchers?" Whoever this guy is, he doesn't appear to only be a used car salesman from Durango! Between the weapons and fairly large quantities of cash, something is/was up?

He's pushing after market add-ons for the tony terrorist: matching leatherette ammo boxes, chromed quick release machine gun mounts, gold plated pistol grip gearshift lever, night vision rearview mirrors w/GPS dingle balls and all the other happy shit any self respecting mobster could ever want.

I think Roof Bob said it.

I want some of those GPS dingle balls.

All kidding aside this is a very strange story.

A few million dollars in cash handed to the right person can turn anyone into an innocent used car salesman.

Did I just say, "innocent used car salesman"?

For those believing anyhing the news say please rent or buy Miss Bala. That movie hits it just on the head.
The dvd guy in front of SL has it, he says it does not have English subtitles but it does.
Saw the movie in Paris, it got great reviewed and played to an empty showroom when I saw it..

I have that movie available if anyone is interested. PM me.
