MEXICO CITY (AP) — The notoriously violent Jalisco cartel has responded to Mexico’s “hugs, not bullets” policy with a policy of its own: The cartel kidnapped several members of an elite police force in the state of Guanajuato, tortured them to obtain names and addresses of fellow officers and is now hunting down and killing police at their homes, on their days off, in front of their families.
It's clearly a joke, but when you have friends who told you of the time 30 corpses were thrown in the town main square as a "peaceful message" to the people to not interfere, it's not funny.
Anyways, we all joke about critical support to really shitty people all the time, and nobody take it seriously.
As irony poisoned as this site can be, I had to do a double take.
