EL PASO, Texas (AP) -- Officials along the southern U.S. border say they are beefing up security after learning that warring Mexican cartels have approved sending hit men into the United States.

Police and federal agents told The Associated Press about the warnings Monday. Officer Chris Mears of the El Paso police in Texas says authorities learned of the threat last week.

Officials say the cartels have given their hit men permission to cross the border to kill their targets.

Cartel violence has killed thousands of people in Mexico this year. Nearly 800 people have been killed this year in Ciudad Juarez, across the border from El Paso.

Of course hit men can cross the border, as we must be compliant with the wishes of our dear neighbor to the south.
As to the National Guard, I would start searching for them in Iraq.

EL PASO - Security is being heightened along the southern U.S. border because of a threat that warring Mexican cartels may send hit men into the United States, authorities said Monday.

Law enforcement officials would not discuss specific security measures being taken at the ports of entry, along the border or in the city of El Paso.

“We received credible information that drug cartels in Mexico have given permission to hit targets on the U.S. side of the border,â€

THE USA IS RACIST IF THEY DONT LET MEXICAN CARTEL HIT MEN CROSS THE BORDER AND KILL ANYONE THEY WANT.

ITS A WAR ZONE AND SHOULD BE TREATED THAT WAY. PUT SOME ARMED TROOPS ALL ALONG THE BORDER BEFORE THEY KILL US!
