#2  Bold, aggressive intimation tactics by the Zetas? It is their style and signature act of dominance and brazen power display.

Wiki cite_"Los Zetas also operate through protection rackets, assassinations, extortion, kidnappings and other illegal activities. The organization is based in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, directly across the border from Laredo, Texas."
