More Violence In Bordertown - Grenade Thrown Into Convenience Store

Voices in the wilderness are calling. Can you hear them? They warn you of great harm that will come to the people and communities you love. Will you remain unguarded when like a thief in the night the terror and corruption visits your home?

Moments after reading and posting the editorial by the Dallas Morning News I heard of continued violence in the community that neighbors mine here on the border.

Channel 5 television has the story. Here is a quote from their coverage:

"NEWSCHANNEL 5 spoke with two women who live a block away from the store. They are confused by the violence that seems to be spreading faster than their government can put it down. They say family and friends who live in the United States won't visit anymore. They say they feel like living in Reynosa is like being in a war zone."

I try not to get jaded with the constant barrage of violence, but I would put this latest incident low on the recent scale of violence.

Tortured voices have long warned this nation of the impending doom and violence that we see developing on our southern border. Let the trumpets sound! Let every ear and heart be opened to hear the Clarion call!

Some may find it easy to ignore our protest, small as our voice may be. One can no longer ignore the growing thunderous voices of those lost. It is their loss that demands action.

Here is the news story from Channel 5 television in the Rio Grande Valley.
