#3 Tabasco has a rich extreme left revolutionary history circa the 1920's and 30's. Zetas are far from leftists, rather narcoterrorists of the first order. The US has a narco-state on its southern border, which is ignored at our peril.

#4 The only reason they're steamed is because they were on the payroll too. These jackasses killed them anyway. That's enough to raise anyone's dander.

#8 There's appears to be a lot of "Tobasco" in New Orleans, or vise versa.

#9 The Zetas were Mexican anti-drug commandos who sold their allegiance to the drug lords. They operate like a miltary force and have killed hundreds in Mexico. Some have set up shop to El Norte.
3 Dallas slayings indicate Mexico's Zetas moved north Not so much immigration, but an invasion.
