The entire police force in a small Mexican town abruptly resigned Tuesday after its new headquarters was viciously attacked by suspected drug cartel gunmen.

All 14 police officers in Los Ramones, a rural town in northern Mexico, fled the force in terror after gunmen fired more than 1,000 bullets and flung six grenades at their headquarters on Monday night.

No one was injured in the attack. Mayor Santos Salinas Garza told local media that the officers resigned because of the incident.

The gunmen’s 20-minute shooting spree destroyed six police vehicles and left the white and orange police station pocked with bullet holes, the Financial Times reported.

The station had been inaugurated just three days earlier.

Don't worry, the DHS is protecting our borders from bad guys.

 

 

Next time they have a gun-show down in Dallas, I'm going to take my tax-refund check and pick up a Ma-Deuce, a mortar and some RPGs. And a supply of ammo for each, of course. Everyone knows that's where the Mexican bad guys get all their automatic weapons and heavy stuff.

We Americans need something to defend our homes. Like if the mailman goes "postal" or something like that, ya know? - Maybe I better get some claymores for the front porch too.
