…”You can start with a genuine cause, but when you start taking control, making decisions and feeling authority … you run the risk of getting to that point,” Castillo told MVS radio. He was referring to how the movement might turn into a cartel just like the Templars.

Many would say that his comment could easily apply to PRI, the political party that controls Mexico- “taking control, making decisions, You can start with a genuine cause, but when you start taking control, making decisions and feeling authority … you run the risk of getting to that point,” (if you added to his statement the words “totally corrupt” it could be describing PRI)…

…In the towns that have formed self-defense movements and affiliated themselves with the regional council of the movement, crime has dropped to virtually nothing.

…Despite it’s success in stopping crime in the towns where they have regained control, the movement still faces incredible obstacles.

A new paradigm has emerged in the Michoacán State of Mexico and it will bode well for US to pay attention.

In case you haven’t heard about it from the lame stream media the finally fed up citizens of Michoacán armed themselves last year and took on the job their government wouldn’t do; that is ridding their society of the local cartel, the Caballeros Templarios. Yes, that translates as Knights Templar.

The citizens, shopkeepers, engineers, farmers and others with no real understanding of strategy or tactics except to know their targets and have the cajones to pull the trigger, have achieved a level of success that has resulted in a considerable drop in cartel terrorism against them and their every success spawns even more success.

Believe it or not, the Mexican government now wants to collect their guns and the citizens won’t give them up. Yesterday a video was released claiming the federales are allegedly killing the autodefensas defenders.

Whether that is the case or not is difficult to say with certainty at this point. But the government supporting media has already been caught editing an interview of the acknowledged leader of the autodefensas movement, Dr. Mireles, that changed the meaning of his entire message.

And there is the matter of Dr. Mireles recent plane crash that reflects darkly on the federale leaders, newly elected or not.

The reality of this situation is it is a rare opportunity to recognize the difference between rebellion and survival. It is beginning to show evidence that it is the government in a state of rebellion against the citizens who have just recently recognized their survival was at stake.

There is nothing wrong with US organizing. In fact, it’s a Second Amendment requirement. Just in case something like that happens here.
