...Witnesses told officers an argument broke out between two groups of men inside the restaurant, but the victim was not involved in the argument, Colon said.

"Apparently they were arguing over which state in Mexico was better," Colon said.

Following the argument, some of the men walked out to the parking lot and got into a fistfight, Colon said, adding that the victim stayed in the restaurant with his wife and was not involved in the fight.

Colon said the victim and his friends decided to leave before things escalated, but as the victim got into his car, two men approached him on foot, brandished a handgun and fired several shots.

The victim was struck in the head, Colon said. His wife was not injured.

The attackers ran to an waiting vehicle, described as an SUV, and drove away...

The article doesn't mention nationality either, these could have been American citizen gang bangers who might not have a real knowledge of Mexico beyond visiting relatives several times who got into a very stupid argument over where their grand parents originated.

It probably involved an unhealthy dose of alcohol as well, which evolved into "lead poisoning". Booze never help solve an inconsequential disagreement which may have never been entered into in the first place otherwise.

On the other hand, I had an interesting conversation with a Mexican woman yesterday morning. Part of it, unsolicited by myself, had to do with Mexicans who come here and commit crimes and do stupid stuff which makes everyone one else look bad. Again unsolicited, she put down the ones who come here and suck up welfare while working jobs under other names.

There are all kinds of people, and making all brown people with Spanish last names into the same person is like making all white people with northern European ancestry the same person - it ain't so.

Actually you always make reference to third world primitives. A noteworthy difference. I am always left wondering if you believe everyone from third world nations are primitive and unacceptable. I referenced these particular group of assailants as scum from the third world, however I do know that not everyone from third world nations are scum.

Those people in our government who have been pulling the immigration strings have exhibited a penchant for attracting scum from the third world. But then again, they also partner up with native born scum too.
