Cowardly Mexican Drug Terrorists Mow Down Family Of Fallen Mexican Marine

Even by terrorist standards, this is real low, man. Disgustingly low. Just hours after a Mexican marine was honored by his country for sacrificing his life in the raid that took down one of the biggest drug lords in the country, terrorist gunmen mowed down the fallen soldier's family while at their home. Get this...the gunmen killed the fallen marine's his MOTHER, two siblings and his aunt. A real machismo bunch, huh? I cannot imagine being in that marine's company (or whatever they call the units down in Mexico)...in memory of the fallen marine, I'd personally hunt these pieces of shit down if it took ten years and they wouldn't be arrested when they were caught.

Note: The photo above is from the funeral of Angulo Cordoba, the fallen marine - it's my guess that is his mother and aunt standing next to the marine pall bearers - imagine, they were gunned down like cattle only hours after this photo.

From the article at Breitbart:

Gunmen mowed down the family of a Mexican marine just hours after the military honored him as a national hero for losing his life during a raid that took down powerful drug kingpin Arturo Beltran Leyva.
The brazen attack happened shortly before midnight Monday at the home of fallen marine Melquisedet Angulo in the town of Paraiso in the Gulf coast state of Tabasco, police said.

Hit men linked to Beltran Leyva's cartel have a strong presence in the state and are believed to be behind the slayings of Angulo's mother, his two siblings and his aunt, federal officials said Tuesday. Another unidentified woman was being treated at a hospital for unspecified wounds.
President Felipe Calderon called the attack "a cowardly act" and vowed to press forward with his nationwide drug fight involving more than 45,000 troops.

Now, when you read all of the MSM and wire service reports on the drug wars and violence in Mexico, you won't see them refer to the bad guys as "terrorists" as I just have - they typically call them just gunmen or assailants. But look at this story and you will see nothing but unadulterated terror. This family was killed not only out of revenge for the loss of the terrorists' leader, this was a message to all members of the Mexican armed forces that if you kill a drug lord, your family will be massacred.

Another tip off that this are actually terrorists is the fact that they went after a DEAD marine - they apparently are too chicken to go after the families of those marines who would readily get hot on their trail as I just described.

It will be interesting to see what the Mexicans will do with these guys if they catch them...I'm not sure I'd want to be them if the army gets to them before the police do but then again, I'm not sure they will even look for them.

Gunmen kill family of Mexican drug war hero

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Gunmen mowed down the family of a Mexican marine just hours after the military honored him as a national hero for losing his life during a raid that took down powerful drug kingpin Arturo Beltran Leyva.
The brazen attack happened shortly before midnight Monday at the home of fallen marine Melquisedet Angulo in the town of Paraiso in the Gulf coast state of Tabasco, police said.

Hit men linked to Beltran Leyva's cartel have a strong presence in the state and are believed to be behind the slayings of Angulo's mother, his two siblings and his aunt, federal officials said Tuesday. Another unidentified woman was being treated at a hospital for unspecified wounds.
President Felipe Calderon called the attack "a cowardly act" and vowed to press forward with his nationwide drug fight involving more than 45,000 troops.
"We will not be intimidated by criminals without scruples like those who committed this barbarity," he said Tuesday. "Those who act like this deserve the unanimous repudiation of society and they must pay for their crime."
Angulo and Beltran Leyva were both killed during a shootout last week between marines and the cartel at an apartment complex in the colonial city of Cuernavaca, south of Mexico City.
Federal officials had warned the power vacuum left by Beltran Leyva's death could unleash more violence.
Beltran Leyva was among the most-wanted drug lords in both Mexico and the United States and is the biggest trafficker taken down by the Calderon administration so far.
U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration officials said Beltran Leyva's cartel, of the same name, has been responsible for much of the bloodshed across Mexico, where more than 15,000 people have been killed by drug violence since Calderon launched his crackdown in 2006.
Angulo was the only marine killed in the Dec. 16 raid that sparked a nearly two-hour shootout with gunmen, who also launched grenades at troops trying to arrest them. Two other marines were injured in the grenade explosions.
More than 60 marines participated in the operation, which also left six of Beltran Leyva's gunmen dead.
Hours before she was gunned down, Angulo's mother had attended her son's memorial service in Mexico City, where she had received the Mexican flag covering his coffin and had been promised money from the military.
Angulo is survived by two children, ages 3 and 16 months. The military has said it would provide them with scholarships.
