MATAMOROS MOURNS THE DEATH OF THREE FIREFIGHTERS

Brownsville Today is in Matamoros, Mexico

Our hearts are with Matamoros during this time of deep loss. Three firefighters from Matamoros lost their lives early this morning while battling a fire in the city.

We mourn the passing of Osvaldo Xavier Cedillo López, Ángel Gustavo Acuña Hernández, and Carlos Emmanuel Hernández, who gave their lives in the line of duty.

Firefighters step up when others must step back, even when it means risking everything for one another. 
We hold their families, loved ones, and the entire firefighting community close in our thoughts, and we honor the courage and selflessness they showed in service to their city.

Rest in peace.

ICE Executes Man In Minnesota said...

They shoot a person 11 times and then run away. What in actual f**k is going on? Will anybody make these Nazi's accountable for their murders?

It was a dozen of them against one man.

ENOUGH!!!

Go to the Matamoros Central Fire Station. It has many pictures of firefighters who lost their lives "en el servicio de su deber ". I have no knowledge of how these brave bomberos lost their lives. I do know that it is not uncommon to find residential homes and commercial businesses with LP Gas tanks of the roof of some buildings. What do you think happens to the Gas Tanks when the building supporting it catches fire ? Fire, Electrical, and building codes are not enforced. These guys have to work with what the Municipality allots them in gas for their vehicles. Many times they can not respond because they used the months allotment of gasolina and the municipality will not buy more. Torn and compromised Gear that no longer meets National Fire Protection Agency standards in Brownsville is often donated to the Matamoros Fire Dept. and the guys are
happy to get it. Self contained breathing tanks and masks are limited if available at all. May God have Mercy on them and give them rest.
available at all.

Expect more former allies to follow suit. Putin is salivating over the slow demise of our democracy. The GOP controls all of the branches of government. They are enabling the orange madman to steamroll the world. Just a matter of time before we start seeing more pushback from ex-friends.

They were 18 year old, these firemen were children. Not good for the City of Matamoros and the protection it gives to its maquiladoras. Cameron County voters, research the people you elect for office. Choose the people that protect Brownsville, not the ones that can bring tragedy to Brownsville.

The number one producer of guns is the USA. The USA doesn't allow other countries to produce guns. China is producing guns now.
