#Tijuana #Mexico #OrganizedCrime
the problem is that México government is corrupted by Narco terrorism too
I think more news show should show this I’m pretty sure the money of tourism that comes into that area is really high and if you lose your terrorism money they will step up
Man not Tijuana too!

Oh La Nueva Jenerasion…my bf from DF he mentioned this gang. I don’t really follow but any gang is a bad one unless you count the Wu Tang Gang😁
Ever notice that whenever something serious happens in Mexico, we only have video from major news organisations? Where are locals uploading to social media?
Probably dangerous to do so buddy… if I had video of cartel members doing illegal things I would never upload it
Only if anonymous it would work I suppose
@A.G ArtMaster How do people do it against the Taliban?
@Rhyss Leary I don’t know maybe you can tell me that lol. However you must admit doing anything against a criminal organization with your identification being known is dangerous and I feel most people, and I hope you also, wouldn’t be dumb enough to try it.
Even news media members and government employees get targeted in Mexico it’s very sad and messed up. The world needs Jesus.
Everyday I sew the world breaking apart and separating , everyone fighting nobody knows who to trust…..
That’s been happening since human beings have been on earth dummy. Don’t cry crygirl
Mexico is falling apart and may soon become a failed state.
Ah Mexico, the New failed state of South America.
TIJUANA is NOT a tourist attraction . You go there if you want to go 😉and meet your creator
Tacos 🌮
This is all because the American Canadian hunger for drugs is unquenchable!
this is an issue of Americans and Canadians out of drug dependency not cartel wars!
Don’t take a cab…oh no…you may not come back
When law and order no longer exist, this is what happens! Why is anyone surprised? Drugs and low IQ individuals never mix well. Have you looked at the streets of all major liberal cities? Cheers!!
I feel this is a distraction.
it looks like nbc didn’t bother to tell us what the power struggle was all about
I met my husband at Regine’s in TJ in 1989.
It was the good old times
I “like” the best the government can do is ask the cartels not to attack working people
Cartel no playin
Can we just wipe Mexico off the earth? Please?
This is fake news. This happened in the usa in baja which is California
Read a map
@Westcoast Cultured culture is not wisdom 😔
Risk your life for a vacation. No thanks.
Need to send in Josh Brolin
Where is karen and ken?
Americans trapped in the middle???? It IS AMERICANS WHO CONSUME THESE DRUGS, IT IS AMERICANS WHO SUSTAIN THESE CARTELS AND ALL THIS VIOLENCE IN MEXICO, AND FOR WHAT? TO BUY SOME “FUN TIME “
This sounds like Mexicans are rejecting the presence of Americans in there country .
No one was hurt and everything is fine since Saturday, everything is back to normal
Don’t downplay the 🗑 and terror 🤡
Fun times
Underground rich bosses are fighting.state government hasnt won and lost control of the area .now anyone with the money and power is trying to conquer the city.
Hopefully everyone is okay god 1st
Shocker.
Oh yeah shocker, two in the pink one in the stink
bums
They are not the most caring people nothing nice for the kids no programs everything is about money? Stray dogs all over like they should make it modern like u.s
What power struggle. Cartels run Mexico
Cartels are the power struggle. They are fighting each other for complete control. Think Gang Wars, but on a much grander scale.
That’s funny Mexican government think they are doing something 😂😭
I grew up in San Diego. We used to camp in the beach in Ensenada. No theft. No worries. This was the 70’s
Kaka
Mexican government won’t touch the criminals. It’s only going to get worse. Only divine intervention can fix the problem.
Never ending bullsht from these thugs and low lifes, always wants violence and killings, mexico govt sleeping
God may South Africa not get this bad 😩. Government needs a revolution.
That will be our country pretty soon thanks to num nuts for our open boarder’s how did you know I was talking about Biden ha don’t forget to thank a democrat if you loose a loved one by the drug cartels so nice try but most American people are not stupid ask Liz the truth will set you free Lonnie ray
Thanks to clonehack 426 he made me to become what i am today with the help of $129,000 thanks you will forever be remembered
Messycans are Dangerous
Send the salvadorean president. Dude has big huevos. He will take care of those cartels.
Americans should stay out of Mexico.
Give the people in MX more guns, they’ll fight back.
MLM?
The end is here!!!!¡!
Raise your vibes. . . . . .🌱🌱🌱 https://youtu.be/n7qspyo4ArQ
Spik-tacular
dont atrack citizens but your ok to terrorize em and continue all other illigal activities wtf!
America is gunna be the new Mexico
Brought to you by and supported by our current administration.
One or two cars on fire is a typical afternoon in t.j. once you get a few dozen there may be a problem.
My gf was just talking about visiting Mexico for vacation 😂😂
Priest and political egos have been in a deep conspiracy throughout history against freedom from the known.
The Cartels run that country.
Tijuana wasn’t a good choice in the 60’s or the 70’s. What changed?
So sad that after this president from mexico still said “hugs no gun shoot” to people who are evil
And it’s a shame you let these people into our country just walk right in I thought we had a border we sure had one with Bill Clinton you Democrats have gotten lost along the way
Baja was lit tho 🔥
not americans calling it TJ in the comments 🤦♀️ the promotional tourism of Tijuana as some trendy exotic party resort is what helped create this problem in the first place
All by design
Since Biden has open the border to drug cartels they are in charge. At least Hunter can get his drugs
Cartel baby
Since when is Tijuana a tourist destination?
Mexico needs El Salvador’s President!!!!
From Ensenada, it got crazy that weekend. All the restaurants, night clubs, events got shut down due to threats. Cartel sent messages saying to stay home or safe spots. Most of those guys arrested were homeless/drug addicts that were set up promising money but they were betrayed and left them until caught.. No one for sure does know what’s going on
Y que dice el pendejo que tenemos de presidente?
Inside job
Looks like a typical day of LA rioting
🙁
I couldn’t careless for any cartel member or anyone associated with these people. I would gladly participate in their demise and sleep peacefully every night.
Too dangerous to even think about going to Mexico!
i really wish we could declare war against the cartel
No thank you.
Mexico is in slow decline over the last couple of decades or so. It’s becoming a drug country to be avoided.
Mexico sucks and people say the USA has a violent crime problem huh?
As a Mexican I honestly feel they just need to get rid of Mexico
hiii
did a white person made a Mexican joke. lol
Ki
It’s not just happening in Tijuana, but all throughout Mexico. The country is collapsing.
At the same time, the Mexican authorities invite their population not to travel to the United States due to crime and the killing of innocent civilians by shootings throughout the country.

In the end times there will be a great falling away from truth, lawlessness will abound. If you confess Jesus is Lord, believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead you will be saved (fromhell) Romans10:9 Please repent/believe before the rapture, before the one world government. Please think about it. Jesus died for you. Love Y’all
NARCO TERRORISM and COMMUNISM
Narco–Cuba must be NUKED!

150 dólares just to burn buses and cars
The CIA behind the cartels and violence..

Mexicans will retaliate. don’t cry antisemitism cuz you started it
BURN all the McDonald’s and Starbucks !!!!
Mexico has never been safe just stay out it’s not even that great especially TJ
Vehicles on fire
I got drunk one time in Tijuana and urinated on an ATM machine. I don’t feel too bad now. At least I didn’t light anything on fire.
