  1. Can they post the vehicles burnt.as 3 people have gone missing so far

  2. this is progress , they are letting people go before they fire up the cars

  3. The thumbnail was in guanato not Tijuana

  4. No need to worry .. it’s just news , Oakland , ca is worst

  5. Hopefully they can pass a law where people are allowed to carry

  6. I just drove through TJ yesterday… back to business as usual… just a little temper tantrum from the cartels! It happens from time to time! No worse than what’s going on in LA!

  7. Tijuana finally did soemthing right

  8. Mexico = Third World narco state.

  9. And just remember, the Pedo was VP when King Hussein and Eric Holder sent those "Fst-n-Furious" weapons to the Mexican cartels. Same weapons that killed our Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.

  10. Share ways to earn hundreds of dollars a day, get free gift cards, and return bitcoin

  11. Didn’t Mexico’s army get bitched by the el chapo cartel

  12. Puro 4 Letras! PA QUE SEPAN

  13. American are so negligent. “They’re telling us to stay indoors because we might die, but I mean we are going to a festival”

  14. Puro Arellano Felix cartel

  15. Ah yes, the troops. The people who already lost to the Cartel are going to lose some more.

  16. Lol the police are in the cartels pockets

  17. America Started Covid 19 and is the 19 Ritches men in America Coverd 19… Elon Musk started Covid 19… EVIL MASK..
    BILL GATES
    DONALD TRUMP
    MARK ZUCKERBERG

    RICHARD ROLLINS
    ERIC VON DANNICAN
    Piere Dragon

  18. Just send either U.S. troops or the UN blue helmets.

  19. Fighting for the Plaza never rests, too much money to be made in everything illegal. These times and situations only makes the fighting more prevalent.

  20. This weekend was one of the ones with least homicides (important to note this)

  21. Of course the police and the military have control. They had to burnstuff as a diversion to do "x" its just what we call "patadas de ahogado"

  22. Attemting to exert their power. Looks like they do whatever they want.

  23. this is an oposition campaign from the fascist regime, suddenly all the country started with narco terrorists activity but only in states controlled by the oposition, maybe america should stop sending money to these people and their campaings

  24. Looks like the purge in real life to me 😳
    Im glad the at least get the people out of the cars before setting them on fire.

  25. Welcome To México 🤣🤣

  26. That girls ignorance, putting her dumb festival over her security. SMH

  27. Nope Mexico is a joke we all know that the cartels have control over the country

  28. press exaggerating is not really that bad

  29. This is absolutely nothing compare to BLM riots

  30. If you get rid of the Cartel gangs there would be no justification for the military.
    Putin or Xi, are not going to invade Tijuana. To justify the existence of a military the community has live in tyranny.
    Profit, drugs, violence, and crime justifies a military presence in society. This is why the cops do not arrest or shoot down the gangs. Just do enough damage to make it appear they are on the right side of the community but if you chop off the hand that feeds you there will be no more reason for the escalation of troops, curfews, and surveillance with which to place the community under total control of the police and military.
    There are no international threats coming from anywhere that justifies a military. There has to be a justification somewhere and the Cartel gangs are it.

  31. It was just a demo to from the US-Mex-Can narco-gop trying to submit the people under the totalitarian Northamerican union.

  32. Pple getting MURKED on the daily in Mexico like you wouldn't believe bit yet some burning cars make the news. Bro who cares the real issue is the murder rate in general and the hyper violence.

  33. Nothin left to say but……Invade.

  34. Tijuana haven't see this type of terrorist Acts since 2010 ..this is fight for territorial ownership from the drugs cartels.. Mexican government don't care so much they had bodyguard and militarys on their tail … While the normal citizen feel unprotected.. true reality

  35. The US should destroy mexico

  36. Govierno estupid0000😡😡 no valen pura ver@@@

  37. What stupid title MEXICO SEND TROOPS TO TIJUANA, whoever wrote the title big ignorant. Tijuana city belongs to Mexico and it is into Mexican territory

  38. As a matter of fact, after the vehicles burning(one night only, no casualties)Tijuana was so calm and relaxed , no traffic etc.

  39. Mexico is not going to last with that division. I am 8 years old and got scammed for being white

  40. MEXICO NEXT YEAR IS GOING TO BE “ ENERGY INDEPENDENT “ WOW👏👏🇲🇽

  41. 1/2 of story. Last weekend 3630 bad hombres were arrested. C'mon do a better job.

  42. I wonder what is the underlining cause of all this mayhem?
