Actually, that is exactly what happened. Operatives from Los Zetas seized several ranches on the Mexican side, just south of the border. I guess over zealous internet reporters exaggerated the incidents. The Los Zetas are tough when they are shooting at people who legally cannot own weapons, but they are no match for any of our law enforcement agencies in a stand off situation. Coming to the U.S. and taking a ranch over here would not go well for them. This isn't Mexico, we have guns too.Laredo ranches taken over by Los Zetas?
