Lucio for Borderland Beat from La Polaka

| Sicario complying with a request to pose for the camera. The weapon 50 cal? |
It appears to have 15-16 vehicles carrying greater than 50 "sicarios" in this convoy near Creel Chihuahua.
The video was taken just before a confrontation in the municipality of Bocoyna.
I believe this group is waiting for the confrontation of November, 2014. Eight men were killed, four of them incinerated inside their vehicles.
La Línea (Juarez) clashed with Gente Nueva (Sinaloa). There were two conflicts. One occurred on a Sunday in the mountain community of Samachique, municipality of Bocoyna, Chihuahua, of which these La Línea members (reported at the time la linea attacked on Sunday)) are waiting to launch, this is close to the village of Rocheachi, where a day earlier the first shootout took place.
On the other hand, a reader sent in perfectly logical reasons why the men in the convoy are GN. Pick your poison.
The group is from Samachique, in the municipality ofGuachochi, Chihuahua.
The photo below is from the Sunday conflict. Supposedly this video is new, I had not seen it before.

This area of Mexico in the Sierras is stunningly beautiful, but constantly under the threat of violence from warring groups.
A side note: On Polaka's YouTube, a Fox LA reporter asked permission to use the video, the Poloka administrator noted, "how different things are in the U.S. than Mexico", whereas in Mexico people take and don't ask permission.
“The same happened to the video of the pipe that blew up in the hospital, all the international media asking for permission and the Mexican mediacouldn't even be bothered to say who the video was from.”
He closed with:
"it's okay to take it, so the people can see the truth of our fucking Mexico"
