Glen Beck talks the truth about Laredo

[latinhooligan]

Let's debunk some myths. Myth #1 Laredo and Nuevo Laredo are the same city. No, Laredo is in Texas, USA and Nuevo Laredo is in Tamaulipas,México. Myth #2 The violence is spilling over to Laredo. No, it isn't. I live less than a 1/4 mile from Bridge #2 and my neighborhood is pretty safe. Myth #3 Two U.S. teens were kidnapped. Well, the version I heard was that they were hangin' with the wrong dudes to begin with. It's amazing how "news" can be overblown and presented as THE TRUTH.

[wangsgeorge]

This dum ass does not know shit...he makes it sound like our town is dangerous...Get it straight Laredo Tx, is not dangerous, and the two girls he is talking about were runaways who decided go have a getaway vacation with some dudes they met over the weekend.

[yougivemecake]

@RaulMtz98 i dont think they would do that! I think the U.S will take care of that pretty quickly...these people are very dramatic about everything... if they dont let an illigal person come in, i dont think they would let those kind of people come in too!

[saulsalazar172]

laredo and nuevo are the same bullshit if u listen to a rap song and listen to how they speak of codes of streets then youll understand why and when it happened if you go down there flossin on dubs your gonna dissapear its like somalia if you go its your own risk that doesnt mean its dangerous youll probably die from drinking water out there then bieng a civillian

[RaulMtz98]

i live in laredo and im at a school thats a couple blocks from the bridge and it sucks cause well get attacked first

[yougivemecake]

Nuevo Laredo, and Laredo are a total different thing! You don't see people shooting and killing...it's extremely rare (in Laredo tx)!! Laredo is safe!

[RaulMtz98]

@yougivemecake very true but if they come in my schools gone first

[TheEpicFailMaster]

laredo is safe as long as you dont get invovled with gangs 

[Phantasmos]

This is from 2007. In 2010, Mayor Salinas and the Nuevo Laredo Alcalde both proclaimed back in February 2010, right around the Washington B-Day Parade that it was not true. In fact, they both claimed that people were imagining and hearing rumors. Look it up in Pro 8 News. Remember, the Former LPD Chief was indicted on racketeering w/ several other cops. Then the LT of the Counter Drug from the SO was indicted on Drug charges. No Pasa Nada, was what Laredo Mayor Salinas said on TV! NO PASA NADA!

[jmedia9565]

Laredo is safe. How do I know that? I live here. Many people get Nuevo Laredo mixed with Laredo Texas .

[latinhooligan]

@jmedia9565...Exactly!

[ButtonZFcknBloodbath]

LAREDO IS PRETTY COOL IM FROM HERE!!! :D

[gh3king]

i live in Laredo and listening to this is a bit scary:O

[eskemo33]

3:53 "some of the better looking women from our side of the border"  LMFAO!

[jrmix240]

fuck that piece of shit fagget glen beck and fuck rick flores

[AbbyNdEsteban]

laredo isnt as bad as they make it seem...nuevo laredo is the problem..

[Anna201369]

isn't rick flores a drug dealer as well lmao 

[AbbyNdEsteban]

OKAY dont say LAREDO its NUEVO LAREDO..Laredo Texas is someother stuff.

[vanehdz87]

LOL! sorry. calm down. laredo is not that bad. I mean Nuevo laredo is....that's a fact. But here in laredo...its not that bad, kind of boring. And people now better when you are crossing, you are warned not to go party and get drunk...and what do people do.

[beefnliver]

@vanehdz87 The scary part is not that Laredo is as bad as Nuevo Laredo. The scary part is that Nuevo Laredo is just a stone's throw from Laredo. The scarier part is that our Mayor Raul Salinas proclaimed Nuevo Laredo as safe and agrees with everything Mexico tells him to say. Salinas will never intervene on Laredoan's behalf to keep us safe.

[partyrocker182]

@vanehdz87 do you live close by the border? i live behind the Laredo Animal Shelter, and ther are constant gun shots, police, ambulance, helicopters all the time. and im just 15, i mostly stay home alone and i sleep with gunshots. and both of my neighbors are druggys. and one of them even grows drugs. about few weeks ago, ther was a gun fight right behind my house. i didnt even know until the whole neighborhood was telling me, i was wearing ear phones. so this side of laredo is pretty dangerous

[Tarin597]

LMAO!!!! YAZMIN MADE IT ON FOX NATIONAL NEWS!!!!!! LMAO!!!!(the two girls that were abducted) and im laughing cuz it turned out it was all fake, they wer just really fucked up in a hotel in nuevo laredo snorting coke and taking dicks...

[yayo283]

ok i just turn 13 and i live in laredo for 13 years! and is not even that bad ! no wonder singers wont come to laredo (LEC) cuz there SCARYCATS!!!!!!

[jerrito81]

@jlucio2005 its los zetas not las

[Rowdyroper]

I Lived In Laredo and I hate it as soon as I was able to I left Laredo and the Crime Suck. My Neighbor got robbed a once a week and he shot and killed they Kid 14yr old kid. And Glenn Beck Is The Shit. I Love Him.

[TheDievil6]

IF YOU DONT THINK LAREDO IS BAD YOU NEED TO GET OUT AND SEE OTHER CITIES THE SIZE OF LAREDO LIKE AMARILLO OR ABELINE AND REAlize yes laredo is a fucking swamp

[jlucio2005]

I live in Laredo and yea at first it looks like a very safe place to live and even in the night it looks safe but trust me it's not. If u go around town looking for trouble u will find it in less than 10 min. several of my aunts and uncles have been in the middle of firefights between las zetas and the police also 1 of my friend was kidnap right out of his house but thank god they found him

[jasoncrespo05]

im from dallas, but frequently travel to mexico through laredo/nuevo laredo, everything seems normal, people goin about there bizzness, im sure theres violence but in what city dosent!

[RHDZ3]

Wow @ all the idiots in these comments. Beck says nothing about Laredo being dangerous.

It's NUEVO LAREDO, & he makes this very clear.

[adrian73341]

Shut the Fuck up u idiot

[MegaArt09]

i live a few blocks from the border and this is a load of bull, good thing we finally got a new sheriff haha

[elpandoreo]

This is a load of bullshit. I live in Laredo TX and i cross to Nvo. Laredo frequently, and yeah there is violence but this shit is blown out of proportion. And that faggot sheriff is out.

[marioamtz6835]

@elpandoreo i totally agree. I live in laredo n its not that bad but it is fuckin boring. nvo laredo isnt that bad as well yea theres some violence but like u said its all blown at of proportion.

[johnjack19691988]

Did this Idiot even know that Laredo Texas really existed? This white bastards only sit on their asses to criticize what happens to La Raza. While the Raza is fighting thier own, the fucking gringos are laughing at us. Nuevo Laredo has always been corrupt, but now it is worse, the solution. Legalize all fucking drugs, do not tax them just let whoever wants to get fucked up do so.

[Mike23198001634991]

This guy is BullShit, i live here in Ghost Town side of Laredo, Tx, and nothing on this video is what happens here in Laredo, its just BullShit.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[VFoVendetta]

[DerailAmnestydotcom]

The threat from Mexico is increasing with each passing day. We have to get control of our borders and rid ourselves of people who have no legal right to be here.

[SET4B2]

[maxcas19]

LAREDO = GHETTO!!!!!

[pachise119]

[pitguru66]

your safe as long as you dont fuck with any cartel associates and if you get pulled over by a mexican police give him 5 or 10 dollars and get the fuck away cause they work for the cartel and if they take you in, like they always want to then your fucked, give them a few bucks and run.dont stare at any nice vehicles and stay away from cars with black tint

[crimsonghost17]

Shit laredo aint bad man yeh sure we got some gang member like kings, sureno blood, crip so wat we dont mess wit other citys we just do what we do lil fights here and there but isnt that just every town or city ?? lol

[scalesofjustice0]

Yeah...it's bad in American, but we don't need illegals adding to our problem. Stay on your side and kill each other...  It will serve us better....not to mention it will serve your country better as well.

[liKewoSh713]

URGH!

wHat ever

LOSers

Laredo is Not bad at all

and

iKNow

that who ever wants a bad life has a bad life

but FreaKKing idiots

laredo is a good place even thou i dont living here but is a good place so is Nuevo LAredo =)

[MEx4laVida]

i used to live in laredo and its tough but it aint gang dangerous, but once u cross to nuevo laredo, thas when shit gets bad

[cali389]

its not really dangerous its really pretty but its kind a ghetoo i was tehre for 1 day tehre was only 4 white ppl millions of mexicans even da firestations r in spanish da texis busses but ya we takin over :) but its not bad laredo mex is really dangerous

[junkmailsux2007]

This guy is a fucking idiot. GO to laredo and I bet you 1,000,000 that you will survive Beck.

[Hexter87]

I live in laredo, As long as your not gang related or drug related your good...And if your looking for a party city. This is the city to come to.

[mlang52]

If your partying includes any drugs, then you are a direct cause of drug cartels. The prohibition of the drugs means the cartels will remain in control and kill 5600+ Mexicans again next year. Racists would not care. But I don't care if they are Hispanic or not, all people deserve a safe place to live. If its a drug war how many drugs have been killed?! NO wonder it failed!

[Xxsnip3rxX]

damn fucking glen beck making laredo seem like a fucked up city. its badass over here in laredo were just a regular city like any other city. nuevo laredo isnt bad either just dont go out like at 1 in the morning and your good. other than that its badass over here.

[nestorv69]

exactly, glenn beck just blows things way out of proportion. Laredo is a peaceful city with great things happening, just CNN never shows it. they make Laredo sound like Detroit. Really, everyone just has to see Laredo for themselves and get an idea. P.S. hey danny haha

[bestjoswel]

and pluse i live in mexico and laredo

[bestjoswel]

wtf? i live in laredo and i dont care what u guys think espeshely that some of u guys think that theres 1000 gangs well ur wrong because threres only like 10 of them if u dont believe in me come down and see and its not that scary its just a reguler city. and pluse that happen like 5 years ago.and i dont care if u put me thumbs down or up.

[muby1978]

VIVA MEXICO ,,,,,,,LOL

[nestorv69]

Really Laredo is not bad, its a prospering city. i live here in Laredo and Nuevo Laredo is not THAT bad. The people who were kidnapped were out like at 3 in the morning. Of course its dangerous. Though i did think it was cool hearing them talk about our town:D

[narguy234]

[pretty08princess]

[austingirl0499]

I am from Houston, and I have been to Laredo to and from Mexico. . .after I found out about what happened. I don't want to go back there and risk myself.

[chikoVIRTUAL]

and what happened?

[austingirl0499]

The drug cartels are invading the town and americans are either kidnapped or killed.

[greenman1694]

let me tell u something laredo is safer then san antonio , houston , and austin this year we probably have like maybe 7 or 8 murders compare that to other cities its extremely safe and the people that get kidnapped all get kidnapped in nuevo laredo not in laredo man u all people think laredo is dangerous man u r dumb

[pretty08princess]

@greenman1694

Your right,

Dallas, people get kidnapped more than laredo, and houston too.

Im just syaing this Fuck you Glen Beck

[strider728]

been there, done that!!!

[cindymata]

I live in Laredo Texas and I will not go to Nvo.Laredo for shit im so afraid. Im not afraid here in Laredo but people in Nvo Laredo are taking advantage of whats happening and are stealing and going into clubs and rapping girls.. perhaps its not the drugdealers that are doing that but their pretending to be so its even more dangerous... love laredo tx thoug...

[chikoVIRTUAL]

dont be scared that only happens to girls with bad luck or who think they are the shit! =]

[dernie]

For those who live in Laredo, did you forget the gangsters that ran into a packed Target store chasing each other with guns last year? Do I have to remind you that over 22 people were killed IN LAREDO by drug dealers last year when our murder rate spiked? Is your head so shoved into your asses and msn-messengers that you don't bother to turn on the TV,or pick up the newspaper to figure out what a miserable failure the mexican police force is doing to stop the shit going on in their country?

[KristopherLara956tx]

your right bout that.but i came from the laffayette bridge.

do you really think they have T.V's in my hood?

[unlocked290]

Okay. Why are we being called dumb? Is it because we don't agree with over-generalized and ignorant claims regarding crime and violence in our city? "omg omg drugz and bad guyzzz! laredo's a warzone omg!".. Seriously, laredo isnt THAT bad. Anyone who has lived here will probably tell you the same thing too. Stay outta trouble, don't be stupid, and you'll be fine-the drug war keeps to itself. This is y I've been able to live here for 18 years without "being afraid to leave my home" Come on ppl.

[jays2474]

NO FUCKING MONEY SHOULD BE GOING TO MEXICO FOR THIS!!!You give money to local law inforcement.The point is these fucking Liberal Democrats for the most part do give a shit about American Citizens,innocent bystanders are going to get killed because of these sick fucks!If a law abiding citizen kills one of these illegals or drug dealers in self defence you bet your ass the scum sucking ACLU will be all over it.

[busa63]

its all crap,laredo and n laredo not that bad,u worry when u got somethin to worry about,ur ass not gonna get kidnapped if u ain got shit,,all those kidnapped WERE involved with drugs,those two chix were drug dealers,,btw,,this is why this pussy is not sherrif no more,hit the road rick!

[clpsw7]

The border patrol chief in Laredo, a guy named Carrillo, is an incompetent who got his

job because he is a butt buddy of Chief Aguilar the so called chief of the border patrol who got a vote of no confidence from an

overwhelming majority of agents. Both are unfit to be first line supervisors.

[DeMoNsi12]

yall are all idiots.. yeah you might live in laredo but it is the place that has more drug dealers.. the fucking mafia is up there fool if your on the street and they are making a deal and something goes wrong they dont care if your with your family if you are a witness of what they did they will kill you..

[KristopherLara956tx]

fucking right.i walked pass one of the cartels on bartlett and cherry hill at the basketball court there near dogwood st and the airport.

this shit is fucking scary and shit.

[Boomer22z]

you walked pass a cartel huh? do you even know what a cartel is?

[KristopherLara956tx]

not a whole cartel family but members of it.pretty common in laredo.

[chikoVIRTUAL]

yuh saw los zetas ?? or maybe a commando? L0L

[KristopherLara956tx]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

[DeMoNsi12]

yall are all idiots.. yeah you might live in laredo but it is the place that has more drug dealers.. the fucking mafia is up there fool if your on the street and they are making a deal and something goes wrong they dont care if your with your family if you are a witness of what they did they will kill you..

[angelmonkey1965]

The violence in Laredo is REAL. Anyone who doesn't believe it is naive and should be grateful they have been lucky to have been spared (so far). Our borders need help from our government!

[slathered]

Beck tells it like it is.

[bwgary]

I met Sheriff Flores today and contributed to his re-election campaign. I am so glad he is willing to stand up against the politicians.

[texasstud956]

[bcmbuck]

glenn beck you and rick flores are assholes laredo texas and nuevo laredo mexico are not the same city they are not even the same country

[mikeb1097]

Nothing but Jerry Springer on CNN. Beck is a joke.

[boostcpa26]

well yes i live here in laredo too ...and it seems normal to me but its obvious the people getting killed r the ones associated with crime and drug.....violence is everything...its based on facts & opinions...and how the media shows it....lol i just thought it was cool Glen beck talked about our city so i post this thing up...maybe next time he should mention something good about us like our laredo jalapenos festival....grrmmmhh...hahaha jk laredo sucks ..movin to LA soon :P *

[bigdipper11788]

ok not that bad? ok mr. ufc wannabe skater!

first of all, have you been there? ok then im sure you haven't, so how do you know its not bad? ok and only 7 people got murdered? 7 peoples lives ended like that 7 family's in pain, how can you say only 7 people died like its no big deal, i bet if 7 members of your family were murdered you would be singing a different tune my friend!

[ufcskater785]

hey retard i fucking live in Laredo i know how its like and now im not saying im dont care about those seven people (now 10) but im saying that he is exaggerated LAREDO really bad.

[ufcskater785]

[eltocayo87]

[guerrero1106]

Two killed Saturday in separate incidents

Sunday, November 25, 2007

From staff reports

A man was shot to death Saturday evening in the Lower 9th Ward, and another man was killed about an hour later in Algiers, New Orleans police said.

[MattR956]

whats this have to do with anything?

[guerrero1106]

this guy is a goon, he should visit baghdad if it is so much safer. compare the D.C./Detroit/New Orleans murder rates and see how it compares?

[desvet297]

The people who are kidnapped in this town, is because they are related to the drug dealers. I am Firefighter and EMT in Nuevo Laredo, so far I havent see any innocent people got killed or kidnapped. So everyone should stop crying, and educated their children in Laredo, TX, and Nuevo Laredo so they can have an healthy life away from the drugs.

[MattR956]

Are you really from Nuevo Laredo? Or Laredo?
